Personality|| Mantis is a very quiet cat. She is not shy by any means, but simple lives y the mantra of not saying anything if she doesn't need to. Her preference is to observe and learn as much as she can, listening to those more experienced and also listening to her surroundings. She considers herself a top predator and wants to be the best hunter any cat as ever seen, so she always practices being silent and stealthy.
For the past few moons of her training, she has proven to be an excellent hunter, her coat perfectly suited to the snow and rocky landscape they live in now. Her skill at combat is much less impressive, but she will make a decent fight yet, and is very nimble and graceful, able to dodge capably. She is very attentive and often keeps an unofficial lookout on the camp when she is there in order to always be useful. Mantis doesn't talk much except when she needs to, but sometimes she doesn't speak up for herself.
She doesn't believe in using soft paws to practice fighting.
Mantis adores Wraith. Whenever she can manage it, she likes to follow him on patrols or just be in his presence. She is enticed by both his mystery and his skills.
Mentor|| Frostfell
Mantis likes Frostfell. He understood her and helped teach her how to be stealthy and observant, things Mantis finds most important. He's not too protective of her either and lets her have her own space. She sort of thinks of him as an older brother - she doesn't want to disappoint him and looks up to him. He's someone she can confide in if needed and one of the cats she likes to follow around.

History|| Mantis was raised by Lightsong but is really a younger half-sister. She was born into Lightsong's old tribe, but since she was 5 moons old has been with Dustclan. She doesn't remember much about her old clan's territory and mostly remembers a lot of traveling and then living here. She adores Lightsong as a sister, but since she has grown older, the lack of a true mother figure has made life a bit confusing.
