appearance
Honeyleaf is a small, long-furred dilute ginger tabby she-cat with brown or dark amber eyes and white paws and chest fur. Her fur is incredibly soft and she has a thick, warm undercoat through all seasons. Her petite size and face give her a very innocent and cute appearance, and she is renowned for her beauty.
personality
Honeyleaf always gives the first impression of being very soft-spoken, introverted, polite, and wise beyond her moons. She hardly ever speaks out of turn and keeps mostly to herself unless called upon.
However, deep inside, she is an incredibly vengeful and cruel-minded cat.
While those who stay away from her are usually safe, she always finds a reason to despise those she's interacted with. Either they're rude, stupid, clumsy, and/or all over better off dead. In her living years one would never know that she may feel such disgust towards them, as her demeanor would never openly shift in the slightest.

Skills
Honeyleaf is incredibly intelligent and cunning. She's physically weak in her small size and lack of battle training, but her plans rarely fail for how deeply she considers all possibilities and roots out almost all flaws before acting. She's also given the benefit of the doubt many times for her beauty and innocent appearance, which gains her more favor.
history
As Riverclan's medicine cat, she coldly and calculatedly plotted what she deemed to be a purging of the weak links in her clan. Mostly in the leaf-bares she carried out her plots. Cats would fall ill with white and green cough, infections, or other pretty normal ailments for the time of year. They would retreat to the medicine den in search of soothing herbs and healing. However, even cats with more minor cases of illness would end up dead-- killed from their "disease".
Honeyleaf had actually murdered them. She would carefully mix deadly herbs into otherwise normal treatments and feed them to the sick cats, who would die from the poison rather than any of their apparent illnesses.
Riverclan didn't suspect much and most often mourned the dead regularly as it was believed they were taken by sickness. Honeyleaf continued this slow murder of Riverclan warriors until another cat betrayed her. She was forced to take on an apprentice in the midst of a peculiarly harsh leaf-bare (the weather was no worse than any year, but it seemed all the more cats were falling fatally "ill"), and from this apprentice she wasn't able to hide her plans. Juniperpaw, the medicine cat apprentice, told the Riverclan leader all that had been happening. She followed her claim with proof using Honeyleaf's incredibly large secret stash of death berries, and many of her stored herbal mixtures that included deadly herbs mixed in with the regular ones used to treat various ailments. Honeyleaf was exiled on the spot, but a small secretive patrol of Riverclan warriors followed her to the stepping stones. As she began to cross, the warriors leaped for her and pushed her into the water, holding her under and finally drowning her for revenge.
Now in the Dark Forest, she's as calculated as ever. She plans to perfect her acting, already very skilled at it, and wishes to exact further vengeance on Riverclan from her dark, rotten home. She's learning to walk in dreams and eventually she believes she'll perfect her act as a pretend Starclan cat to gain a following of the cats she visits in the night.

plotting
FRIENDS: It's almost an impossibility to make friends with Honeyleaf. She'll act kind to those that may be useful to her, like those she plans to visit in dreams, but she has a mental checklist of every flaw in every cat she's met.
ENEMIES: In one way or another, every cat everywhere is her enemy. She despises the non-perfect in a world in which perfection is impossible. When given the chance, she would kill those she hated under the excuse of purifying the clans.
RELATIONSHIPS: Honeyleaf has never felt any sort of attraction to any cat. She's considered seducing some for pure personal gain, but never acted on the idea. It held to many risks. Close relationships in her eyes are entirely useless and too risky.

If you have a Riverclan cat (or truly any clan cat) whose life you'd like to mess up, send me a message! We can plot something in which Honeyleaf tries out her dream-walking skills for them :3c
