Dovesong
Appearance: Grey she-cat with slightly darker color points and grey eyes.
Position: Medicine Cat
Biography: Dovesong was born to a kittypet mother, but their cruel owner didn't want kits in the house and resolved to drown Dovesong and her littermates. They were stuffed in a bag and thrown into the swamp at the edge of Marshclan territory. It was only by chance that a patrol found them and brought them to the Marshclan camp. One of the nursing queens adopted them and raised them as her own. When Dovesong was only a few moons old, an outbreak of greencough swept through the nursery and most of the kits got sick, including Dovesong. Only by the heroic efforts of the clan's medicine cat were Dovesong and the other kits saved. More than the others, Dovesong idolized her savior and wanted more than anything to be like him. She asked him to take her on as his apprentice several times and he finally agreed, impressed by her persistence and determination. She studied under him for many moons and worked beside him for many more. Though he is retired now, she still respects him very much and seeks his advice often. Dovesong is usually a very calm and level-headed cat, rarely losing patience or getting upset. She's brave enough to forage for herbs anywhere in the territory or even outside of clan territory altogether. But if danger threatens, few cats are quicker to run back to safety than Dovesong. She respects her clan leader and deputy and values her connection with Starclan. Her clanmates feel comfortable telling her how they sustained injuries, even if it's embarrassing, because they know how discreet she is. But taking care of her clanmates is her top priority and she will raise her voice or tell a secret if she thinks it will help someone.

Swiftwind
Appearance: Black and white patched she-cat with green eyes.
Position: Warrior (newly promoted)
Biography: Swiftwind grew up wanting to become the toughest bravest warrior in the world. But her training did not always go smoothly, as she was often overeager, and she ended up needing the medicine cat several times from overestimating her own abilities. Her clan leader gave her the warrior name -wind because the wind in her wake is often the first sign that she has run ahead of her patrol again. An encounter with two-legs early in her apprenticeship left her with an enduring fascination with them and she will not fail to investigate any two-leg thing that turns up in her clan's territory. Beyond that, Swiftwind is known to be fearless and honest. She's very protective of her clanmates and will charge recklessly into danger to defend them. She hates liars and bullies and will not miss a chance to challenge them. While some of her clanmates are annoyed by her more over-the-top behavior, others appreciate her good qualities.

Wolfpaw/heart
Appearance: Dark grey tabby tom with yellow eyes.
Position: Apprentice
Biography: Wolfpaw was born the smallest in a litter of four, but he was no less healthy than his littermates. He was late to start speaking and his parents worried that he might be deaf, but the medicine cat's examination found that this was not the case. He's just an exceptionally quiet young cat who only speaks when he has something important to say. His quietness is both a help and a hindrance to him. It allows him to focus and learn easily by observing. But it also makes him seem mysterious and unapproachable and many of his clanmates avoid him because of that, which makes him sad. He cares deeply about the good of his clan and wishes he were more popular in it.
