Flamewing

Flamewing is a red-mackerel-tabby tom with a white chin, chest, underbelly, and hind paw. He has amber eyes.

Flamewing is a rogue that served under Hollowstar's leadership in the Great Valley territories. He was born as Flamekit to Thrushleap and Foxblaze of HollowClan alongside his siblings: Crowkit, Sandkit, and Palekit. He was later apprenticed as Flamepaw with his mother, Foxblaze, as his mentor. Having no kindness for kits, Foxblaze showed no compassion for her own son and trained him with little praise. Flamepaw fought more ferociously, hunted more prey, and strived to impress his mother and mentor. Foxblaze never showed any signs of approval much to his dismay and frustration. On the other hand, his siblings were showered with praise by their mentors and Flamepaw was insanely envious. Especially of his brother, Sandpaw, as the latter struggled to not run away from even a mouse. Mole and Priscilla were patient and comforted their apprentices which Flamepaw interpreted as taking pity on Palepaw and Sandpaw. Since his mother would not praise him, Flamepaw started complimenting himself and largely exaggerating his place in the clan. These lies he told himself to originally cheer himself up eventually made him become disillusioned with his ideals. Strength was the only thing that mattered. The weak would worthless. Thus, Flamepaw began to bully his youngest brother, Sandpaw, and leer at him. He drafted his other brother, Crowpaw, into his antics and the duo stirred up trouble in HollowClan. Due to his bravery in battles and his perseverance to never back down from any enemy, Flamepaw was made a warrior early and renamed Flamewing. By this point, he was convinced he was part of some untold prophecy and that his birth would benefit HollowClan. He decided he was the 'flame' that would purge HollowClan of all its impurities.
