TRIBE-485: Fangstripe

Name: Sunstripe

Birthday: 26th of December

Sunstripe was born in the Starfell Clan as the daughter of a very high ranked family of Freefallens. She had a brother, Yōrō, whom she was very close to as a child. The two would spend their entire day together, frolicking around the camp, pulling pranks on healers and pretending to want to fight the warriors. But as they grew older, Yōrō started to grow apart... He started spending time with the heir to the leadership of the Clan, a very stuck up grifix named Freezing Sun. She surely deserved that name - she thought she was as important as the sun, but she was a useless sun, that helped with nothing, giving no warmth to the land. Who needs a sun that gives no warmth? Sunstripe couldn't understand what her brother saw in her.

It was only later that she understood - she lived under the illusion that grifix could live for love, she was naive. Her brother cared not for that grifix - he cared for her status, and the status that he would get if he were to marry her, and the status that their children would have. Sunstripe found that absolutely disgusting, she never thought of her brother being like that, but soon she realized that the entirety of the Starfell Clan was like that. Even their parents - they hated each other.

When she saw how far her brother went to marry Freezing Sun, purposefully blinding himself... Sunstripe could not bare to live in the Starfell Clan no more. On the morning of her brother's wedding day, she tore open her mask down the middle, splitting the Crowned Eye symbol in two. She ripped her beautiful fancy clothes and she walked outside with her mask off - something a Starfell grifix was never supposed to. She waited in front of the Starfell Clan's head tent until he came out, and she threw her mask in front of him. "I don't want to be part of a family that lives only for greed... I don't care about the shame this will bring me. I will leave the clan."

It was hard for Sunstripe to get the Clan to accept her leaving - she did nothing against the Clan's laws after all, so they kept bugging her constantly and the warrior and healer mentors wouldn't allow her to enrol... But she was persistent, and eventually managed to join the Warriors and change her name to Fangstripe, throwing away the ole link she had remaining to the Clan. 

But that was not enough to her, she wanted to throw everything away, to have no links to the Starfell Clan. She found no connection to who she once was... So she threw all of that away.

Nowdays, Fangstripe is a quiet warrior, with pretty poor fighting skills compared to the other warriors. He's always pushed aside by the others... He likes telling stories to the cubs, but never talks about his past. However, the little ones can't shake the feeling that the other grifix know something they don't. Their parents often tell them to stop talking to him, but never tell them why... While Fangstripe threw everything away, he could never escape the social stigma and the loneliness it brought... but he was happier than before, so he didn't regret a thing.
