Appearance
Gorseblaze is a shorthaired and long-limbed white tom with ginger fur along his back, flanks, neck, face, toes, and tail. These areas are mottled with darker ginger spots and stripes that become more visible under sunlight. His muzzle, underbelly, ear-fluff, and legs are all white. He has almond-shaped, pear-green eyes with darker, almost moss-colored pupils.

Personality
He is typically a quiet and understanding cat. He always listens and considers everything deeply, and has a difficult time getting things off his mind. He prefers to think rather than do, and is often lost in thought. When he does do work, however, he puts a lot of time and effort into it, making sure to get it perfect. He is quite social and loves other cats. He enjoys nothing more than making sure his Clanmates are happy and comfortable, and will go out of his way to comfort anyone in need of help. He always thinks through everything he says before speaking so as not to offend. Most of his sensitivity comes from his synesthesia.

Kithood
Gorsekit was born to Knikflower and Archshade in FallClan alongside Redkit and Sunkit. When he and his littermates were one moon old, Knikflower took in a pair of HorizonClan kits- Fireflykit and Weedkit. Gorsekit always got along best with Fireflykit, and the two of them quickly became best friends, even going so far as to plan out their whole lives together.

Their kithood was relatively uneventful.

Apprenticeship
Gorsepaw became an apprentice. Yay. He remained good friends with Fireflypaw.

Then, one day, he randomly decided to move to OasisClan. Fireflypaw was angry about this and moved back to HorizonClan afterwards. F.

Warrior / Messenger Life
Gorseblaze became a warrior in OasisClan. Redsplash and Weedsing died at some point. Sad. Knikflower and Archshade also retired somewhere along the line.

Presumably, Gorseblaze stepped up to become a messenger alongside Brightnight after the death of the previous messenger, Zephyr.

Also, Sunstriker died giving birth to her kits back in FallClan. That was sad. After that, Fireflyleap felt bad and reconnected with Gorseblaze. Gorseblaze also paid some visits to Fireflyleap's depressed boyfriend, Pencil. And he encouraged the two of them to take care of Sunstriker's orphaned kits. Yay.

At the moment, Gorseblaze just chills.

Trivia

 * He is the second cat in the roleplay known to have synesthesia, the first being Ashface, the FallClan mediator. There are more details on what exactly synesthesia is in the trivia segment of her page.
 * He was inspired from the book "A Mango-Shaped Space". If you haven't read it, you should. I dunno about y'all, but it made me (Starling) cry.
 * He was also originally going to be a medicine cat of FallClan. But then he wasn't.
 * Fireflyleap had a crush on him as kits / apprentices, but Gorseblaze didn't reciprocate, so yea.
