|| Personality ||
➳➳➳➳➳┄┄※┄┄➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳┄┄※┄┄➳➳➳➳➳
+Magnanimous+
''Well, i'm sure there are good qualities about you, so I'll let it slide.'' Harrier isn't one to hold grudges, and will surly rise above anything. Forgive and forget.
+Decisive+
''Don't worry, I know what I picked.'' When something pops into their mind, they're pretty sure it's the right thing to do. Even if it causes them to run into the face of trouble
+Stolid+
''...'' Harrier doesn't worry in the face of danger. In fact, they don't do much at all. They're pretty calm in these situations
+Adaptable+
"Oh, you're pregnant and you don't know who the father is? Cool, I'll be the dad if you'd like." Unlike most, Harriernose grew up moving around and in constant motion, they've grown used to adapting. In cases of it being a cat, the above quote would stand. Pretty uncaring and willing to adapt to make things easier.
>Insouciant>
''No thanks.'' Lack of concern can be good or bad in cases. While others jump in to lead, Harrier would rather sit to the side. It's best if they don't lead.
>Observant>
''I always listen, and I never stop.'' Harrier never gets bored of watching, listening, paying attention. It's a good thing they forgive because they never forget. At times it may seem creepy, but they really enjoy watching over talking.
>Self-sufficient>
''I'll just be over here.'' Harrier is a bit of a loner. They tend to make decisions on their own, without consulting others. That being said, they can at times get into a lot of trouble, or none. Their decisions aren't always good ones.
>Abrupt>
''Come on, enough chit-chat. Let's get down to business(to defeat, the huns!).'' What's the point of beating around the bush when you can jump right over and save time?
-Phlegmatic-
''Um, okay.'' Harrier is a friend who is able to open you up, but doesn't enjoy being opened up themselves. They're closed off, and enjoy it that way.
-Charmless-
''What's wrong with my fur?'' They put little effort into how they look, and aren't the best at charming others in the personality department. They may not always understand their stance in the clans, and tend to come of fairly abrupt and rude.
-Argumentative-
''So what? It's fine, don't worry about it!'' Much like their appearance they don't work hard to change anything about their personality either. If you don't like them, they don't care. And they wont be afraid to tell you.
-One-dimensional-
To harrier, the first page is the only page. Harrier may be an observer, but none of the information means anything to them. They put little effort into thinking things trough, and do as they please with what they have.

|| History ||
➳➳➳➳➳┄┄※┄┄➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳┄┄※┄┄➳➳➳➳➳
Harrierkit was born while the clans were split up during the twoleg attacks. Harrierkit was raised during the time Leafclan took refuge in Highclan. They were born to a young she-cat, and a father who wasn't really around. Their mother was stubborn, and didn't take well with all the traveling. Upon an early morning hunt for water, their mother went missing. A search patrol was sent out, her body found at the bottom of a trench. Harrier from then on bounched between the queens until the day the leaders had to call all cats to the gathering of the Frozen Lake. It was there Harrier was able to see their mother one last time, as the stary shapes of Starclan cats poured into the clans. It was upon this time of their fifth moon they were made an apprentice early, given Rosethorn as a mentor.
Upon this time, Harrierpaw began the travel between the clans, following their way under the mentorsip of Rosethorn. They never saw half of their clan or home territory, so they did their best to become acquainted with all the new sights and smells that covered the passing lands. Along the way Harrier didn't get the change to learn much about fighting, as the journey to a new land restricted their lifestyle. It was under Rosethorn's guidance that they learned and honed their smelling, and their natural inclination towards the skill. It was this specialized training that allowed Harrierpaw to discover a gift, and their warrior name.
Of course when the time came to be assessed, they were able to prove themselves and gain the name Harriernose, in honor of their honed skilled to scent. Harriernose, like most young warriors their age, began the long and tedious task of questioning their future. Having met all short-term goals, they were no left with a lack of long-term goals, and what they wanted to do with their future. They've settled down in the new territory beside their clanmates, ready to begin life in the new home. However as time passed things began to arise in the new territory. Paw prints were being found, leaving Leafclan confused. It was then a patrol had gone out, finding what was leaving said pawprints. A wolverine. The patrol returned, but with three cats killed.
As far as it's known, the wolverine is still lumbering around the territory, as it walked away from the fight basically unharmed. A bit later they came into contact with Nightpaw, an apprentice from Seaclan. The two hit it off pretty quickly. They meet again at a later date and she teaches Harrier to swim, and the two end up having a mud fight instead. Harriernose became acquainted with Quailspark, and found the meeting a bit awkward as they weren't used to dealing with shy cats; but enjoyed the tom's company either way.
Harriernose met up again with Nightpaw, but was given the news she was now Nightthistle. After Seaclan's camp flooded Seaclan had a temporary camp and Nightthistle was living with her clan in a temporary camp. They were surprised with a confession from Nightthistle that she liked them, but they weren't sure how to reply despite sharing the same feelings, so they left. Soon after Harriernose takes the head of a seeking patrol, using their nose to sniff out the wolverine. They find it and while they made it out unharmed, Harriernose suffered from a small scratching on their hind legs, though it was nothing serious. Despite the small wounding, they were still able to attend the gathering with their clan.
They went a while without meeting Nightthistle, and hornets threatened the clan. After meeting up with Nightthistle she asked them to be her mate and they agreed while also finally saying they loved her. They received their first apprentice around this point and it became harder to visit Nightthistle. Two moons later Stoneclan has split, having fallen to a bobtail attack. During this time Nightthistle received her first apprentice as well, and this forced the two even further apart as they train their apprentices. Harriernose gets to know Sedgepaw, the sister of their apprentice. Upon first meeting, they disliked her, but grew accustomed to her. The two ended up becoming pretty good friends over the next six moons.
Soon though training is over, and Harriernose is able to see Nightthistle, though she's still training at the moment. The night ends up resulting in kits a bit later, though she's since had her apprentice ranked up. With this, Harriernose is met with a tough decision. They decide to tell Sedgeblossom about this news, and during this, she agrees to be the fake-mother for her half of the litter. Nightthistle's ex-apprentice, Snaildust, 'fathers' her half in Seaclan. Harriernose was unable to meet the Seaclan half of their kits though, as Nightthistle had slight complications during her kitting, that required attention.
In the end, Harriernose takes back three of the six kits, though they never got to see the others or Nightthistle. Back in camp, them and Sedgeblossom name the kits Rabbitkit, Spiderkit and Grizzlykit. They raise their half of the kits, and when they grow closer to six moons Nightthistle says they need to meet.
Harriernose sneaks their half of the kits out of camp with Sedgeblossom's help, and meets Nightthistle at the shore. They're able to meet two of their three Seaclan kits, but finds out Nightthistle is leaving. She breaks their mateship off harshly and takes Splashkit and Dragonflykit with her. This leaves Harriernose heartbroken, though they must keep this hidden as the clan still thinks they and Sedgeblossom are still mates. Harriernose vows to take lasting care of their remaining kits, and keeps patrolling the Seaclan border in hopes of coming across their remaining daughter, Saplingpaw.
Their kits become warriors and from what Grizzlybear tells him, Saplingpaw is now Saplingcreek and after many many moons, they hear news that their son Dragonflykit, now goes by Ducksong and has returned to Seaclan along with Nightthistle. Harriernose hasn't tried to meet her yet, and steers clear from Seaclan. They are focused on their own clan and the family they have in it. And while a lot had happened in the clan, Harriernose had been in a daze most of the time. Thankful for Sedgeblossom taking such great care of their kits like her own. They have yet to speak of when they will break off their 'fake mateship' but nobody seems to question it and they can't deny they've come very close with Sedgeblossom.

Pale cloud crossed over the sun, casting dark shadows across the land below. Sweetbreeze was quietly watching as rain began to slowly flutter down, pelting the ground below. She was safe from the rain under the safety of her tree, but still jumped when drops splattered too close. Her fur rose as she stared across, watching another clans' territory in the distance. She couldn't help but wonder... what was it like in the other clans?
