Yeah this is for a medicine cat. I'm bored and it doesn't need to be one. I can change it.

Beyond Those Soulful Eyes...
Build. Shadowbrook's build is very slim and indistinct. She is by no means meek, but has small paws and very slim limbs. She stands almost half a head shorter than all other cats. The small of her back arches slightly, and the fur there is always flattened down, no matter the temperature or her mood. Shadowbrook's movements are impossibly smooth, as if she was moving under water. Her small paws sometimes make her footing in rocky areas uneven, which she makes up for by always carefully distributing the weight of her upper body. She had little muscle mass and can't hold up much of a battle, though she can run for incredibly long distances without tiring. She has proportionally small ears, though her hearing is not impaired. Her tail is strangely long in comparison to the rest of her body, being as long and thick as the average cat's. She uses it greatly to her advantage for balance. Her nose, though an average size, is immensely sensitive, helping her pick up foreign scents immediately.
Fur. Shadowbrook's name suits her well - her dappled gray and black fur blends easily with itself over the majority of her body, helping her blend in easily in dark areas and over rocky outcrops. The thick, coarse fur over the ridge of her spine never raises, and the rest of her pelt never manages to fluff up much as the weather becomes colder. The fur itself, however, is thick, so she never faces much of an issue being cold. The only place where cold is an issue is Shadowbrook's face, where the fur is much lighter and thinner. Her paws are several shades darker than the rest of her pelt, and the fur around her eyes and nose gets comparatively lighter. The very tips of her ears are so dark they're almost black, as is the very end of her tail. The fur on her tail becomes patterned, fading smoothly and liquidly from light to dark. Her pelt is also easy to groom, as due to its thick hairs, little managed to get stuck in it. The fur sticks up a bit only on her shoulder blades when she sinks into a hunters crouch. Overall, her fur's sleek appearance and feel helps Shadowbrook run and and move faster and more smoothly. The fur inside her small ears is thin and extremely light gray.
Eyes. Shadowbrook's eye's are an icy, evergreen color that reminds all who gaze into their captivating depths of the leaves of a tree, frozen in a midwinter frost. Lightest at the middle, her eyes get steadily darker as it travels towards the edges, although the change is just barely noticeable. Her pupils aren't round, but a sort of vertical ellipse. Her strange eyes make her seem foreign. When Shadowbrook is angry, looking into her eyes is the last thing anyone wants to do. They grow cold, biting, and distant. However, this doesn't happen often, although her eyes do sometimes suddenly attain a far-away look, as though remembering a long forgotten dream. The majority of the time, however, her eyes radiate warmth and concern. Shadowbrook often tries to convey messages with her eyes instead of words, though she tries never to let her eyes show hurt.
Other. She has an unusual brownish-pink nose that leans towards brown. Her movements are so fluid she sometimes doesn't even seem to be moving, but floating instead. Her claws are unnaturally short and dull, making her fighting frustratingly handicapped.
Personality. Shadowbrook is very headstrong, and has strong opinions. She comes from a strange background of loners and rogues and knows she will never be completely accepted for it, but keeps her views and beliefs strongly. She is calm, strong, and determined with everything she does. However, she also does her best to fit in with clan life to a certain degree, trying to follow its customs. With all sick cats, however, she has never shown anything but a strong desire for them to return to full strength, and treats them with calm, compassionate warmth. She hates more than anything else to have a cat die, and when this happens she often gets overemotional and can possibly lash out at any cat who approaches her. This almost never happens, as she is a highly skilled cat, trained by all the best in the forest. Shadowbrook has several pet peeves, including cats doing things intentionally and unnecessarily that could put them in danger. She would rather never have to treat a cat at all than have to make them better. Though she is highly independent, Shadowbrook accepts clan life and has no wish to return to her life as a loner. She does, however, sometimes miss her family and those she had grown up with, and during these distant and misty times it is best to leave her be, unless she is needed for an inured or sick cat. Overall, she is very talented and clear minded.
Hobbies and talents. Shadowbrook has an eye and a nose for herbs, and a strange intuition that helps her with her medicine-cat...ing. Speaking with StarClan at Moonstones is what keeps her going, and makes her consistently sure that she made the right decision leaving her life as a loner to live with a clan.
Faults and dislikes. It is always best to stay away from Shadowbrook when she stays away from others. She expects others to be able to read her better than they actually cat. Also, she is not as lenient as she should be with kits, getting easily frustrated with them when they do things that could put their lives at stake.

History.
[OOC: This reads like some crappy children's story, but it's 1am so I think I get some credit. Shadowbrook was born a loner. Clear-headed and strong willed, it had seemed a simple destiny that she would grow up and have influence over all the other rogues and loners. However, from an early age she was highly inquisitive and had a strong affinity for herbs. Then, StarClan came to her in a dream and told her it was her destiny to be a medicine cat. Using her influence and calm head over others Shadowbrook traversed the forest, hunting down cats who knew of exotic or highly effective treatments for anything from infected paw pads to the infamous BlackCough. She became sought after for treatments, and for a long time she was content. However, she realized, as she was gifted with sharp intelligence as well as a head for herbs, that her talents could be put o better use. Though she enjoyed the luxury and freedom of the life of a loner, she knew inside that she would never truly be happy with herself unless she gave up her ways and helped an organized clan. She couldn't exactly figure out why this made her happy but it worked to the author's advantages. However, leaving her home wasn't simple. She's had a mate, Ember, who died of Blackcough. This was what first inspired her to become a medicine cat, and she wasn't ready to leave where he'd died. It was with a heavy and torn heart that she set out for IvoryClan, knowing they were in need f a medicine cat and hoping some sort of plot came out of it.
[OOCAGAIN: ew. lets just say she's lead a life of crime and seen the light to a certain point and StarClan's all "ITS YOUR DESTINY" in a dream.]
