Personality
Tinybird is always too hard on herself; she is her own biggest critic , pointing out every bad decision she made because of her actions. She refuses to believe that she is good enough to call herself the daughter to the amazing Thistlestar. The she-cat constantly reflects on the mistakes that she has made, refusing to let herself move past them, no matter how trivial they are. She will spend too long trying to make amends for mistakes that only she remembers, often leaving others confused over her actions, thinking she is putting off doing what she is meant to be doing. This causes others to perceive her as lazy, even if she is trying really hard to do what she thinks is right and be exactly the cat that her father wants her other siblings to be like, especially since she wasn’t named after any cat.
The she-cat can be quite irritable when she is lost in her thoughts and prefers to be alone. Tinybird has serious self-doubt issues, not thinking that she is good enough for her family and will often let that hold her back. She has convinced herself that she isn’t strong or brave like her littermates are, undeserving of being a warrior.

History
Tinybird was born to a litter of Thistlestar, the leader of Thornclan, and Lyra, a loner, with two siblings, Cricketleap and Petalfall. When she was born, Lyra left them behind for Thistlestar to find because she cared more about her freedom than her love for her family.
The kit was brought back to Thornclan by her father where she was given the name Tinykit. She hated her name because it reminder her that she wasn’t good enough, especially for her father; she wasn’t named for the kindness of his brother, like cricketkit, or the bravery of his apprentice, like petalkit, but she was instead named for her small stature.
Tinybird chose to keep to herself and avoided getting close with her father or siblings in fear of disappointing them, not wanting them to think too highly of her. However, the further that Tinybird tried to push her family away, the more that her adoptive mother, Briargrove, tried to grow closer with her. Tinybird slowly began to trust the she-cat more, beginning to call her ‘mom’.
When she was made an apprentice, Tinypaw was given Briargrove as a mentor. This had surprised the she-cat and made her believe that it was through luck that she was given the one cat that she trusted as her mentor, not realising that the cat that she called her mother had wanted to be her mentor specifically.
