  • Character Name: Nettleclaw


    Character Age: 18 moons old adult (exactly a year and a half of age) This can be altered depending on who might want him for family, or as a grown kitten such and so on.


    Gender: male/tom


    Alliance: depends on where I want to put him


    Rank: depends on where I want to put him


    Appearance (6 or more sentences): His paws are large but not unnaturally so, with long but sturdy legs attached to a lean and strong body. Traveling up that lithe body you get to his widely spaced shoulders full of flexibility and muscle. Then you find a nicely proportioned neck not too wide or thin connected to a finely shaped head. Not compact or rounded in shape like some breeds, but smooth with a nice tapering muzzle. Triangle shaped ears slightly rounded at the tips grace the top of this toms crown listening intently to his surroundings. A pink nose graces the tip of his muzzle while long white whiskers stretch outwards into the air. The base color of his short coat being a bright white flowing over loose relaxed muscles and tendons. His tail at the other end of the spectrum is still intact, long, and of mid length fur making it easier for him to balance in the trees or over a log. The colors on his coat glow a healthy orange with tabby stripes scattered throughout the pied markings like gold clouds in a white sky. He is, al in all, a fine handsome male despite the disadvantage of his bright coat during hunting expeditions.


    Personality (6 or more sentences--these sentences form their own section and do NOT count towards the 4 groups below; those are additional requirements):
    ---Likes (at least 3): Nettleclaw likes to feel useful to his friends and clanmates normally causing him to take on more jobs than he is normally able to do. He finds that cats who think logically are more to his liking and will question those who speak or act with their heart. He also enjoys basking in the sunlight within short grass while listening to the sounds of the landscape around him. The tom more than adores hunting and truly relishes ending his prey quickly and silently. He also likes to test his strength, whether that be in mock fights, contests, or in real battle. He likes to get a little attention out of others from time to time, like the admiration of an apprentice or the "well done" from a superior. He also enjoys night time patrols and the smell of the nocturnal world.
    --- Dislikes (at least 3): Nettleclaw does not like laziness from himself or others, and will gently hint at other cats that they should be doing something if they are sitting around doing nothing. He also dislikes rudeness that is uncalled for as well as cats with generally bad attitudes. Mud on him or around him is something he hates and will try to avoid though water he's okay with. Birds are his least favorite prey with all those feathers to pick off, and if he can help it he will avoid eating them altogether. He also doesn't like it when the rules are bent and or completely disobeyed. Cats who disobey the warrior code, do not follow the warrior code, or disobey the leader will be stuck on his "I don't like you" list.

    ---Strengths (No MORE than 5): His sleek body is well made for stamina while his physical strength is only a secondary attribute. In truth his strength is only slightly above average to a normal tom cat of his size. With large paws, wide shoulders, strong legs, and a lean but strong build he was never really made for speed. He's also very good at thinking under pressure, and has no problem speaking in front of a crowd. He is patient though, and does not try to bring attention to himself.

    ---Weaknesses (At least 3): While he's good at thinking under pressure and before speaking or acting; Nettleclaw sometimes over thinks things causing him to pause too long before doing something important. He will sometimes miss chances to further himself in a fight or finish off prey before it flees because of his over thinking things. He also can get a little arrogant or pushy at times when trying to get cats he thinks are lazy to actually do something. Being a tad judgemental is also a problem he continuously tries to keep himself from doing, though more often than naught his judgemental comments stay stuck in his head. He's also slightly under average speed for a tom cat of his size and that can be used against him in battle.


    History (8 or more sentences): This also depends on where I want to put him and will be edited in after he gets an alliance and rank.


    Roleplay Sample {Required for first advanced bio}:

    (this might be a longer post but if I have no muse or nothing to do in one of my replies it might be much much smaller. )

    Leaping through the undergrowth an orange pied tom heads to his favorite hunting spot. His pinkish white claws flex with every bound digging into the moss, grass, and dirt of the earth. Even though he was still heading to his destination, Nettleclaw had his ears swiveling, nose scenting, and eyes on the lookout for prey. There was always a chance that he would run into a mouse or bird this far into the forest, or perhaps an enemy. Just thinking about potential prey or attacking clan cats made his fur rise and caused him to force a growl into silence so as not to disturb the forest around him. The tom wanted to bring back as much fresh kill as he could for his comrades and scaring the prey away before he even noticed them would certainly not help in his endeavors.


    The males steps slowed as he brushed past a gorse bush remembering to lean away so that a rabbit couldn't hear his fur sliding against the stems and leaves of the plant. Much of the vegetation in this area had dense root systems with plenty of places for prey to hide. The bushes around here also supplied many creatures with nuts and berries throughout the year making this area a prime hunting spot. Nettleclaw had used it many times before and now he would be hunting here again with hopes of bringing a big catch back to the fresh kill pile. Slowing to a complete stop now the young males tail tip flicked once as he scented the warm smells of the undergrowth. Mouse, bird, and snake scents all crept into his nose and over his mouth as he slowly glanced around. The mouse was about four tail lengths away under a bush that might be hard to creep around without the mouse sensing him. The bird was sitting at the top branches of a bush only two fox lengths away to his left. Lastly was the smell of snake, most likely a ribbon or garter snake looking for worms and other small creatures to eat. However, the tom couldn't pin point where the snake was, which made him believe that it might be hiding under some pieces of wood or beneath the leaf litter. He decided to go for the mouse and crept lightly on his paws around the bush. Pausing a moment as the mouse picked up its head and looked to his left, Nettleclaw waited for the moment that the critter put its head down again to leap. He broke the rodent's spine easily and picked up his meal to bury in the clearing. The bird was still nearby and the young male heaved a sigh. He'd go after the bird if only to say that he tried, but if he caught it Netteclaw would make sure someone else got the feathered beast to eat. He hated having to pluck all the feathers off before digging in and eating.

    Comments (optional):
    He needs some background like what clan he came from or who his family is before I start to rp with him.
