General Description
Pine is an old but large, long-furred reddish-brown she-cat with pale eyes and cracked teeth.

She is a very motherly but also very bitter she-cat who never takes any nonsense from any cat. She is very warm towards she-cats, but is often very cold to any male cat who she thinks is stupid, even if they are of her own litter. She always listens to her own common sense and doesn't like anyone else telling her how to mother cats, especially from other she-cats. She loves kits, expecting queens, and she loves having kits. She is also a great hunter.

Pine doesn't listen to cats she doesn't like, even if they have been proven to be right in the past. One such cat is Eagle. She also has a tendency to claim any other cat's litter as her own.

History/Future
Pine has always been a loner, traveling across many different territories before finally settling in the plains. During her travels, she ran across an older she-cat named Raven, who had given birth to Crow, Robin and Rook. Pine became so enamored with the kittens that she stuck around and eventually got a mate named Taylor, who was a dark tabby.

Raven and Pine got along well, despite the age difference and despite Raven's mental problems, and they shared their dens when Pine had kittens. Most of Pine's first litter died, with Eagle as the only survivor. Raven was convinced their deaths were somehow her fault even though it was obvious they weren't. Pine took pity on the old she-cat, and told her that her kits were eaten by a fox, just so she'd stop blaming herself. The very next day, Raven disappeared to go look for said fox, and never returned. Pine discovered much later from Raven's current mate, a ginger tom, that a monster had run her over.

Feeling guilty for Raven's death, Pine took on her kits as her own and brought them with her on her travels. Though Crow eventually died after eating deathberries, Robin, Rook, and Eagle survived and they continued traveling with Pine all the way to the plains, where Eagle found her new mate Star.
