    neutral good, enfp

    (+) kind, courageous (/) optimistic, trusting (-) oblivious, nosy, reckless. After having spent so much of her life alone, Ember has a lot of love to share and is eager to share it. This leads her to be very kind and trusting, always trying to make new friends, but often coming off as kind of nosy. It takes her a while to pick up on social ques, and will often miss them entirely if they aren't pointed out to her explicitly. Her success in living on her own has given her an easy confidence, a self-assurance that allows her to throw herself in dangers way without a second thought. Always assuming she will have what it takes to face it.
    ↳ mannerisms Always has a bounce in her step, and moves very quickly. Is remarkably coordinated for how recklessly she seems to bound about. Is quick to get physically affectionate with others, even if she barely knows them. Laughs easily and often, sometimes laughing more than she speaks. When she's scared or angry all her excess movement will stop, her body tensing to prepare to spring into action.​

FLICKERFIRE /
Emberstar perks up at the name. "Oh, yeah! Flickerfire is the best! We had some issues, but we're great friends now! She's so funny!" At some point, amidst her words, she began smiling brightly and now she can't seem to stop. It's like she's her old self again, before the weight of leadership wore her down. She giggles softly. "I just wish we were in the same clan so we could spend more time together. Y'know, last time we saw each other-" She begins to ramble, and you get the feeling you may be here a while.

BLAZESTAR /
"Blazestar is a good leader and a good father." Emberstar punctuates the statements with a confident nod. "And both are very hard jobs! I don't know how he manages the both of them. His clan and his kids are lucky to have him. I'm just glad I have a friend like him amongst the other leaders!"

HOWLING WIND /
"I am lucky to have Howling Wind." Emberstar states simply. Her smile is soft, and her eyes are filled with gratitude. "I couldn't run Thunderlan without her, at least, nowhere near as well. She is good at all the things I have trouble with. Organizing and ordering and all that, and she can be a bit too strict about it, sure, but she has the clan's best interests at heart." She nods in affirmation of her own words. "We make a good team."

LITTLE WOLF /
"Little Wolf is a lot like her mother! She's strong and capable and she has some good kids she should be very proud of!" Emberstar's smile is bright. "We're lucky to have her and her kids in Thunderclan."

SUNNYDAY /
Emberstar's eyes shine with pride. "Sunnyday is a good warrior." She states confidently, smiling brilliantly. "One of Thunderclan's best. He doesn't always follow the rules, but he does what he thinks is right, and he's got a good heart. The clan needs more cats like him."

FLYCATCHER /
"Flycatcher is a warrior I can rely on." Emberstar claims with a smile. "I was right to promote him, he's capable and kind and everything I want in a Thunderclan warrior. With him helping out the clan runs smoother, and he sets a good example for everyone else too!" She pauses for a moment, then adds. "Did you know he's an uncle?!"

FLAMEWHISKER /
Emberstar beams. "I still remember the day when Flamewhisker got brought back to Thunderclan, terribly injured on on deaths door. She's come a long way since then and I'm proud of her. Her story is the embodiment of what I want this clan to be, really. I want us to help cats, and give them a place they can call home."

PITCHSTAR /
Emberstar's ear flicks, and her expression looks as though she has just tasted something vile. "Shadowclan's new leader is. Interesting." She states, unusually diplomatic. The way her tail lashes behind her though, it's not hard to figure out how she really feels. It doesn't seem polite to question her further though, as she seems to be trying very hard not to say anything more.
