ooc name: Brightleaf
fun fact: Loves, but hates gore...

ic name: Brightleaf
age: 31
gender: Female
short description:
strengths: Can fight, smart, compassionate, strict, and knows all herbs.
weaknesses: panicky, clumsy, deceiving, stubborn, and unforgiving to herself.
brief personality: Brightleaf is a bright bubbly cat who loves helping out patients, but easily falls in love, yet never shows it.

He is just a kit right now, but this is an omen that must be stopped. She gives the kit watermint and juniper for his aching stomach, while the image replays over and over in her head. He must be watched extremely closely. Chances will not be taken.

[spectresight]

ooc name: dusk
fun fact: i am groot

ic name: spectresight
age: fifty-four moons
gender: she-cat
short description: click time
strengths:
:: extremely loyal to her clan
:: former warrior experience helps her treat wounds
:: independent
:: still ready and willing to fight
:: excellent memory
weaknesses:
:: undiplomatic
:: impatient with whiners
:: suspicious of outsiders
:: a touch aggressive
:: sarcastic
brief personality: spectresight isn't the type of cat to greet people with a smile and a "how do you do?" she's old and slightly bitter, and tends to keep to herself inside the medicine cat den rather than socialising with others. even so, she cares immensely for the cats of her clan; she's certain to assure that they are healthy and well looked after, though she has a rather roundabout of showing her care. her words may sting as much as her salves, but the calico knows what she's doing and she's devoted to keeping her clanmates strong as can be.

the stench of blood was still thick in her nostrils, the red liquid's coppery tang lingering on her tongue even as the she-cat jerked awake from her nightmare. nightmare... had that truly been all it was? the dream had felt too real, too vivid, as though she'd truly been standing before a blood soaked warrior. an omen then. she couldn't ponder the vision for too long, as she realised someone was standing outside of her den. the same someone who'd woken her seconds earlier.

"spectresight..." 

spectresight snorted as the kit mewled her name pitifully, tottering into the shelter before she could even acknowledge that she'd heard him. "thornkit," she sniffed, disgruntled by the sight of a dark tabby so similar to the one that had appeared in her dreams. "what are you doing out of the nursery at this hour, kit?" the little tom mewed a complaint about an aching stomach, plopping onto his side at her command so that she could put an ear to his belly. the child had probably eaten crow food, but a thorough check-up wouldn't hurt. "you shouldn't have wandered over here on your own. next time have your mother send for me," she said gruffly before padding deeper inside her den for the herbs she'd need. as she uncovered one herb-filled hollow, her mind drifted back to the dream. the timing was too strange to be coincidence. starclan must have been sending a message, but was it a warning, or something more? heaving an inward sigh, the she-cat returned to thornkit, dropping an light green leaf before him. "eat this. it's chervil, should make you feel better soon enough. i want you to stay in the spare nest overnight, just so i can keep an eye on you."

once she'd watched the kit take his medicine like a good warrior and settled him down to sleep again, spectresight slipped out of the den. first she needed to visit the nursery before thornkit's mother woke up and sent the camp into an uproar searching for her missing kit. she would have to speak to dreamstar as well, but that could wait until the morning. the kit might have an ominous future looming before him, but right now he was just a kit. a sick cat who needed caring for, nothing less, nothing more.
