Character Name: Tigernose
Character Age: 16 moons
Gender: Tom
Alliance: Thunderclan
Rank: Warrior
Appearance: Tigernose is a large, handsome, young, tabby, ginger tom with a long-harried, thick coat. His claws are long and sharp which is a deadly weapon against others in battle. He has hard, dark ember eyes that blend in well with the forest darker colors also; his left ear is bushier than his right ear. Tigernose's tail is a normal, snow white tail also having long whiskers. When in Greenleaf he had a hard time blending in while hunting because his ginger pelt didn't blend in well with the forest's green colors. Though proving to be a challenge in Greenleaf in leaffall when the forest was more of a darkish brown and orange. Tigernose was able to blend in better, which gave him an advantage in hunting during leaffall. He also has large snow white paws.
Personality: Boiling with rage and fury about his parent's death, he's quick to snap on any cat. Tigernose really just doesn't care anymore; all he wants to do is be a great warrior. So, wherever his parents are...he knows somewhere in Starclan. They could be looking at him proudly. Though, he's very battle hungry, quick to get into some fight which hurt the clan many times. Tigernose always gets into border battles, no matter if a whisker crossed the border. So no warrior wants to take him out on a border patrol, even hunting patrols because he gets really angry when he can't catch prey for the clan. Tigernose thinks his parents are ashamed of him, the clan now thinks of him as an angry, proud tom.

History: Tigernose was born in a huge forest fire. His mother died upon giving birth, his siblings leaving the earth shortly after. All there was left was little Tigernose, scared and alone. Luckily, his father: Ravenshadow was there to race him away from the flames, his mother...his clan. The crackling flames almost made his father give up but when he saw the tiny helpless kit dangling from his jaws he fought on. Ravenshadow managed to bring Tigernose to safety, but died soon after getting away from the fire from inhaling too much smoke. In Tigernose's father dying breaths; he noticed the kit fighting beside his body. Ravenshadow looked at his son proudly; he knew he was going to grow up to be a strong cat. Looking at Tigernose he gave his final words. "My son, a strong cat since birth...I name you Tigerkit." With that, Ravenshadow closed his eyes...forever. Tigernose was soon found by a patrol and brought back to the clan. There he lived and was raised to become a strong powerful warrior. Though anger still burns inside of him about the death of his parents.
Roleplay Sample: "I thought the prey was running," Tigernose murmured to himself. His ginger fur blended in with the orange colors of leaffall. Creeping through the silent, cool forest without a noise. He glanced to both sides making sure there was no danger creeping around. Tigernose tasted the air; he smelled a mouse near by, due north. He padded until he noticed the mouse sitting on the cool, hard earth searching for food. He dropped into a hunter's crouch shifting his paws on the ground to make it seem like he was a snake. The Mouse started to look around for a snake. Tigernose gathered his hunched and pounced landing on top of the mouse. Finishing it off swiftly after giving thanks to Starclan. He picked it up in his jaws; he wished his parents were here. They would be proud, but they're dead! You have to stop thinking about it; it's been moons since that accident! Moons since the fire that changed his life forever and put his paw prints on his destiny.
Comments: Tigernose is a cat who's history been in my head for a long time. His history and the way he looked was always something that came easy. Then I had to focus on his personality which was the hardest. Should I have a cat with anger and rage burning inside ready to burst who snaps all the time? Or a nice cool cat that doesn't blame others for what happened to his parents. That what made making Tigernose so fun! I hope it's to the advanced standard. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
