Name: Pineshadow
Age: 19 moons
Rank: Warrior
Gender: Female
Clan: Shadowclan
Short Description: Muscular caramel colored she-cat with darker points, dark blue slanted eyes and a triangular face.
Full Description: Pineshadow is a slightly built but strong seal-point Siamese, with a rather darkish (for a Siamese) brown base coat and even darker points. She has large, unsettling slanted midnight blue eyes rimmed with turquoise and a triangular face.
She is built rather like a Windclan cat, but bulkier and without the extra-long legs. Her posture suggests discipline and erectness-- she sits straight as a ramrod no matter what. Her tense stance is evident in her longish tail and pointed ears as well, which are constantly twitching.
Personality: Pineshadow is one of the most intelligent and clever cats in the clans, and prefers to keep to herself. She has no relations in the clan or out of it and no one really knows her: she has an excellent poker face and a perpetual nonchalance about her (in an unvarying uptight sort of way). She rarely speaks. She is not shy, but seems to just prefer keeping silent.
When she does want to say something, it is always worth listening to. She portrays the wisdom of a somewhat older cat, and most of the cats in the clan look to her for battle strategy planning. She offers helpful pieces of information at seemingly random times about seemingly random subjects.
She can sometimes be snappy and short tempered, especially around young cats. She was once a rogue (see History) and is having trouble adjusting to sleeping at night, not to mention socializing with other cats. As a result, she often goes off by herself around moonhigh and returns with prey.
History: Pineshadow turned up at the camp when she was around 14 moons, calling herself Shade and assuring that she came in peace and had not hunted on Shadowclan territory. She stated that she had been observing Shadowclan's borders for a while and had come inquiring about the oddity of so many cats living together. The clan was suspicious, but they let her stay a few days so she could experience clan life, making her promise to leave as soon as they wanted her to.
On the third day she spent in Shadowclan, she decided she wanted to be a part of it and asked to join. This came as a big surprise to everyone as she had seemed uncomfortable throughout her visit. Of course, the Shadowclan cats were very hesitant about letting her in, but it was leaf-bare and they figured they would need more warriors. After a few more days of waiting to hear them make a decision (during which she worked very hard hunting and patrolling for the clan) they renamed her Pineshadow and made her a warrior.
She has not told details of her past life to any of her clanmates, and after a few attempts at getting it out of her, they have left her alone about it.
Roleplay Sample: One of my night hunts. Stalking a vole. Suddenly, I hear a crackling in the underbrush behind me. Can’t be prey—sounded like a huge animal. I’m in fight or flight mode. My ears perk up, my nostrils flare, my eyes dart left, right left…I taste the air: nothing. Whatever it is must be upwind. I swivel around, my ears now pressed against my head, my lips drawing back in a silent snarl. I unsheathe my claws and back up a few pawlengths, my fur prickling in apprehension. “Who’s there?” I call in a threatening (I hope) way. Out of nowhere, a huge weight drops on me and I fall into oblivion.
