Appearance (6 or more sentences): Silentvoice is a large brown tabby tom with patches of white on his paws, chest and face. He has a jagged scar running across his left flank and his face and shoulders are criss-crossed with scars, causing him to be blind in his left eye, turning it a milky white, unlike the bright mossy green of his right eye. His fur is sleek and soft while his tail is long and tipped with white. Despite being his blind eye being a sickly milky white, it seems to see just as much as his seeing eye does, burning with the same passion for his clan. One of his forepaws is slightly twisted from birth but he has learned to use it to his advantage, causing it to be stronger than his other paws.
Personality (6 or more sentences--these sentences form their own section and do NOT count towards the 4 groups below. Those are additional requirements): Silentvoice is a very quiet cat. Many would think that he was deaf or dumb because the impression comes across that he is mute but the truth is that he is just shy and doesn't like to speak. He is a loyal friend and would stick with you until the death. He doesn't like large crowds as they make him feel self-conscious and he prefers being alone over anything else. He hates being judged and bullied since that happened so much when he was a kit and apprentice. Even as a warrior he is extremely timid though in battle he is a fierce enemy. He is very solitary and so quiet to the point that many think he is mute but he is quick to stand up for whats right even if he has to speak to do it. After so many moons of being told he was worthless scum and that everything that ever went wrong was his fault, he began to hate himself too.

---Strengths (No MORE than 5): Silentvoice is extremely good at climbing, despite his twisted paw, he can blend in almost anywhere and he is an accomplished fighter and hunter.
---Weaknesses (At least 3): Silentvoice is really quiet and shy, often giving the impression that he is deaf and dumb and he doesn't like to voice his own opinions, he is extremely self-conscious, often causing him to avoid his clanmates for fear that they would bully him.
History (8 or more sentences): Silentvoice was born as Silentkit after his mother, Strawberryleaf, refused to name him Twistkit due to his twisted paw, insisted that it would not hinder her son. He had two sister and a brother, Nutmegkit, Inkkit and Stingkit. Nutmegkit died before she turned a moon old and since then Silentkit, who previously hadn't spoken much, spoke even less, becoming virtually silent, the reason that his warrior name became Silentvoice. He became an apprentice a moon late due to the leader's doubt that he would be able to overcome having a twisted paw but soon proved to be a diligent, determined young tom as he trained harder than any of the other apprentices, practising until his paws bled. The sunrise before Silentpaw and his sibling were to become warriors, rogues attacked their camp, killing many cats. Silentpaw fought harder then he ever had before, scaring off rogue after rogue but at the same time receiving many scars around his face and shoulders. One rogue who was larger than the rest, a tom named Slasher who was their leader, came at Silentpaw. As Silentpaw fought the tom he felt a spirit fighting alongside him, giving him strength and after the fight, Silentpaw came out on top, suffering a jagged gash across his left flank after killing the rogues' leader. He collapsed, waking up nearly half a moon later to find out that his sister, Inkpaw, had been killed by another rogue and, as a StarClan spirit, had fought alongside him. Silentpaw's leader made him a warrior but, with a cruel twist, called him Jaggedscar. He stayed silent for nearly a moon, his brother, Stingclaw, avoiding him instead to become mates with Flufftail, one of the cats who had always tormented and bullied him as an apprentice. One night when Jaggedscar was planning to end it all, his sisters, Nutmegkit and Inkpaw, came to him in a dream and told him that this wasn't his destiny. The next day when his leader called a meeting, Jaggedscar stood up and in a firm, loud voice, he surprised his clanmates by meowing, “My name is not Jaggedscar. I am Silentvoice.” His leader did not deny him and Silentvoice became his true name. A moon later, both of Silentvoice's parents, Deadtail and Strawberryleaf, were killed in a battle and Silentvoice once more became as silent as he had once been. His brother, Stingclaw, blamed the death of their parents on Silentvoice, denouncing his relation to his brother. Two moons later, Stingclaw's mate, Flufftail, died giving birth to two kits, Fogkit and Shadekit. Once more, Stingclaw blamed the death on his brother and a day later, committed suicide by throwing himself into the path of a passing monster. Six moons later Silentvoice was given Shadepaw as an apprentice. The young tom hated Silentvoice, blaming the deaths of his parents on him. One day when they were training Shadepaw attacked Silentvoice, clawing at his mentor's face furiously, blinding him in one eye before running away. Shadepaw was never seen again. Fogpaw grieved as silently as her uncle and strangely, instead of blaming more loss and death on Silentvoice, grew closer to him and tried to become his friend. A few moons later Fogpaw become Fogmist and fell in love with a tom from another clan named Heronwing. She bore him three kits and Silentvoice helped her hide their heritage by pretending they were his, even though it caused his clanmates to send him many poisonous looks, believing that he had taken his own niece as a mate. Silentvoice, due to the way his clanmates treat him, believes that he is inferior and worthless and therefore hates himself despite how well Fogmist treats him.
Roleplay Sample (Required for first advanced bio): Silentpaw clawed at Slasher's face, feeling his claws rip through skin and tear out tufts of fur. Slasher let out a blood-curling howl of pain and reared back, his eyes blazing as he raked his claws down Silentpaw's flank, spattering the clearing with blood. “Fight on my brother.” a voice murmured in Silentpaw's ear and he felt strength fill his exhausted limbs. I will fight Inkpaw. He thought. For you I will fight. He whipped around, ignoring the pain that radiated from the gash on his flank as it streamed blood through his tabby fur, soaking the ground around him in a pool of red. His eyes blazed as he matched Slasher blow for blow, his muscles no longer screaming as he felt Inkpaw's spirit brush against his flank. Finally he darted forwards, raking his long, curved claws down Slasher's belly, spilling the rogue leader's blood onto the peaty ground. The rogue collapsed, his flanks heaving for breath. Silentpaw crouched down next to the tom, putting his mouth right next to his bleeding ear, “No longer will you hurt anyone again.” he breathed, watching the tom's life-force ebb away beneath his paws.
Comments (optional): Sorry that the History stuff is so long, I'm hoping to be a writer when I grow up so I got on a roll and suddenly it was really long.
