Personality

Having gone through lots of recent hardships, Driftpelt has a hard time staying positive. Despite this, he does his best to remain optimistic about the future. He is always looking for new challenges and enjoys competing with others.

He is adventurous and an incredible runner.

Relationships

Drift previously had a mate named Mitzi, with whom he had two kits. Unfortunately, Mitzi was taken by humans and one of his kits got sick and died on the journey to the clans. This has left him with only his daughter Mistlekit remaining. He loves her deeply, but deep down secretly feels like she's somewhat of a burden. He's very careful not to let this show, however, and does his best to look after her and keep her happy.

Health

Driftpelt has no current or past health issues.

History

Drift was one of the younger members of the alley cats, and his rambunctious nature and extreme energy caught the attention of a young molly named Mitzi. The two eventually became mates and had two kits together, which they called Mistle and Holly. Unfortunately for the new family, humans arrived suddenly one day, capturing Mitzi and a couple other cats. Unlike Mossy and Flood who had been captured but returned with their ears clipped, Mitzi and the others were never seen again. Drift never quite recovered, but did his best to keep his kits safe. He was not through with his bad luck, though, as during the journey to the clans, Holly was lost to an unknown sickness. Drift was careful not to blame Wren or any of the other cats, but secretly he believed that if Mistle hadn't caused them to slow down so much, they could have reached the clans and had Holly healed in time.
Now he is Mistlekit's sole caretaker, and has some difficulty dividing his time between taking care of her and getting time to run out and explore himself. He very much loves her though, and always comes back with stories of that day's adventures (the accuracy of which is debatable, but don't tell Mistlekit that).
