Mocking Jay
She is 21 moons old and is of BloodClan.
the appearance
Mocking Jay's eyes are a deep, deep aquamarine color that seems to be never ending. They are one solid color with flecks of acid green in them, giving them a strange, unmistakable shimming in the darkness of the night. Jay inherited her father's ability to pierce the soul of any cat with a simple glance, and have the same mocking look in them. Jay's eyes are always calculating her surroundings, and keeping alert to emergency escape routes if be needed.
Jay's pelt is a rather unusual thing, the base color is a cold stone gray that gives off the impression of ice cold character. On her face she has white almost tiger-like markings that frame her eyes and scratch above her eyes. Her front paws are also the same snow-white, which also circles up her limbs in a spiral pattern. Her back paws and a tail tip is a darker gray that can be mistaken for black. Her body is also that solid gray but slightly tinted with white that gives her good camouflage in the night. Her pelt is very short, which helps her keep cool in the summer heat, and is very glossy looking.
Jay's fur is messed with a few scars from her past. She has an 'x' shaped scar on her cheek and a small scar across the bridge of her nose that she got in a fight with a mother fox. She has a rather noticeable scar along her flank she got in a fight with a street cat and a thick scar on her foreleg.
Jay also has her father's slim and weak look about her. Thankfully, she also developed her father's dark aura that gives cats a second thought when they first see her. Jay didn't get her father's natural running talent, but rather a natural fighting talent, she knows how to over throw a cat and just instinctively knows what move works best against them. Jay is also good at stalking, this she mostly learned from Snowfall, but has perfected in her years. When it comes to hunting she has no patients to stay still.
the personality
Jay is a very cold and strict cat. She considers herself to be superior to all the cats around her, thus making her very arrogant. She hates being ordered around by anyone and will usually rebel against ideas she doesn't like. Despite this, Jay isn't stupid, she will hold her tongue when it’s necessary, even though it annoys her to no end. Dealing with cats with no intelligence is something that irritates Jay very quickly, she will most likely just kill them or at least make it clear she wants nothing to do with them. Her very limited patient makes it hard for her to get along with, but this is what she wants, never to have friends. Jay is a natural loner at heart, and can keep herself entertained rather easily without the help of others.
Jay is the kind of cat that will rely more on her intelligence then the thing some would call a 'heart', which she seems not to have. Her compassion is nonexistent when it comes to other cats. The only thing she would so much as consider helping would be a kit, only because she wouldn't want the little thing to end up like her. Jay's heart of stone is unbreakable, as far as she's concerned, so she doesn't bother with friends or mates. Her main goal is to bring down BloodClan, meaning she has no loyalty to the Clan at all, and would take any chance to raise and power and kill the leaders. If she ever did manage her goal she would not take over BloodClan, just disband it and leave to go die a peaceful death.
Jay is a very emotionless cat, and it takes a lot to get her mad, usually it’s when you insult her. Her pride in her skills and intelligence just might be the end of her, but she doesn't care. Her eyes are set on her ultimate goal, and will not be moved for anything.
the history
Mocking Jay is the only final living kit of Strikestar, her mother is unknown, even to her. She was born in the old ShadowClan territory and taken care of by an old she cat, but never by her real mother. She was given the two part name to respect the old clan ways. Strikestar raised Mocking Jay to the best of his abilities, this made Mocking jay very attached to her father's territory. Once Mocking Jay was about the age of an apprentice, her father died, leaving the ShadowClan territory to be ruled by BloodClan. Mocking Jay fought for the right to own the territory, but was quickly beaten down by the BloodClan cats.
From then on, Mocking Jay's real life started. She was constantly being used and beaten by the BloodClan cats. She was subjected to becoming some sort of slave to the BloodClan cats, making her act like she had no mind at all. She was treated worse than the rest of the cats who remained in the old ShadowClan lands, and none of them did anything to help her. It was until she was 12 moons that she started to rebel. It first started when she started to take lessons from an old she cat named Snowfall, a she cat originally from the old RiverClan. The she cat taught Mocking Jay to the best of her ability, teaching her how to hunt properly, and even telling Mocking Jay about her father's fighting style. Thankfully, Mocking Jay was always a quick learner and was soon fighting as well as a warrior. Mocking Jay told no one of Snowfall training her, only her best friend Lark. Lark had come across one of their training sessions, and Mocking Jay made her promise not to tell anyone. Unfortunately, Mocking Jay had to learn the hard way not to trust anyone. Lark had told the BloodClan cats. They all cornered Snowfall and beat her to death, with some pinning Jay to the ground, making her watch. Despite all her pleas, Jay had to watch with tears in her eyes at the murdered her mentor, and there stood Lark not too far away, with a twisted grin on her face. The young cat was so angry at the BloodClan cats and Lark. Shaking with rage and grief Mocking Jay turned her eyes on the BloodClan cats and Lark and snarled. "The ones who aren't cats... the ones who don't deserve to live... the ones who are monsters...are you!" With those last words, she ripped herself from the BloodClan cat's grip and sunk her fangs deep into his throat. With a snap she broke the tom's neck and turned her eyes to the rest of them. It was only a few moments until they all lay dead at Mocking Jay's paws.
After this, Jay instantly left, she learned what she could from the clan cats and still had the thirst for more knowledge. This soon led her far from the clans into more peaceful lands. She learned how to scavenge from cities, find food in the driest deserts and how to fight dogs. Her time away from the clans taught her many things, and changed her in many ways, but all good things some to an end. Jay finally found her way back to the clans, many moons later. She was going to take them down from the inside out, no matter what.
