    Character Name: Mousefang.


    Character Age: Five years.


    Gender: Tom.


    Alliance: ThunderClan


    Rank: Warrior.


    Appearance (6 or more sentences): Mousefang is a large dark brown tabby tom with long, somewhat matted fur that needs constant grooming and often goes uncleaned for a few days. He has white toes and a white snout, but otherwise his pelt is covered in varying shades of brown. His eyes are bright amber, and they seem to glow in the darkness, even when there is no light to be found. He seems well-fed due to his massive amount of fur, but underneath he is a normal sized clan cat. He has a long, fox-like tail and short, powerful legs. His ears are large and wide-set, and he has many characteristics of a Mane Coon cat.


    Personality (6 or more sentences--these sentences form their own section and do NOT count towards the 4 groups below. Those are additional requirements): Mousefang is cat of many faces. He is quiet and mellow around those he does not know well, but outgoing and loud-spoken around those he is familiar with. He is a deep thinker, constantly watching his surroundings and fully aware of what's going on at any given time, which makes him an excellent guard or patrol cat. He is generally very friendly to everyone he meets, but he can be rude and grumpy when angered or upset, or when someone he cares for is hurt. He is intelligent, but can often be lazy if not encouraged regularly. He loves kits and apprentices and is fond of being a mentor; he's very patient with young cats and doesn't mind having to repeat lessons. He can, however, get impatient with older cats who disobey orders or don't understand simple requests. He can be a bit bossy and assumes leadership when those around him are submissive enough to accept it.


    ---Likes (at least 3): Nighttime and watching the stars, patrolling and border checks, journeying to new places, and Gatherings with the other clans.
    --- Dislikes (at least 3): Kittypets and loners, Twolegs and their monsters, and storms.
    ---Strengths (No MORE than 5): Extremely alert, excellent at making battle plans, swims well, protective.
    ---Weaknesses (At least 3): Has trouble thinking quickly in emergencies, can come off as rude and demanding, slower in battle due to size, overly ambitious at times.


    History (8 or more sentences): Mousefang was a loner, lost and abandoned after his mother rejected him at birth. A warrior from a nearby clan, LeafClan, found him when he was around two moons old and took him in as a member of the clan. The same warrior later took him under her wing and trained him into warriorhood. He quickly became a clan-favorite and soon after took on a mate and kits. Later in his life, he subbed for the LeafClan deputy briefly while he was away looking for new territory, and he enjoyed the job and responsibility; he was even hesitant to step down and allow the old deputy his position back. He vowed to someday become the permanent deputy, but when the time came, his mate was chosen for the position instead of him. He slowly became bitter and eventually left the clan, his mate, and his two kits and journeyed until he stumbled into ThunderClan territory, where he was hesitantly accepted and made a warrior. He has since then been watched carefully by many of the more senior ThunderClan warriors.


    Roleplay Sample (Required for first advanced bio): Mousefang watched the night sky over ThunderClan territory, wondering silently where StarClan would take him next. He did not feel fully accepted here, what with the watchful, judgmental eyes always burning into his fur with every step he took. But he could not blame these cats; he too would have been, at the very least, suspicious of a mysterious cat who knew of the clan's ways showing up and offering his services to a clan he had never known before. Sighing, he stood and turned toward the camp entrance, planning to roam about a bit, perhaps do some late night hunting to clear his mind. As he flexed his claws and crouched down, preparing to run into the night, a shape dashed in front of him, blocking the exit.


    "And where do you think you're going?"


    Foxdung, thought Mousefang. Another night of burning eyes on my pelt. He let out a small growl as he retreated back to the warrior's den. As he lay down, staring absentmindedly at the wall, he wondered when ThunderClan would treat him more like a warrior and less like a newborn kit.


    Comments (optional): (( I've roleplayed everywhere but it seems most places have died down. I hope this place is active! ))

    Mousefang watched the night sky over ThunderClan territory, wondering silently where StarClan would take him next. He did not feel fully accepted here, what with the watchful, judgmental eyes always burning into his fur with every step he took. But he could not blame these cats; he too would have been, at the very least, suspicious of a mysterious cat who knew of the clan's ways showing up and offering his services to a clan he had never known before. Still, even after he has explained his past, his life in his kithood clan, LeafClan, the other ThunderClan warriors were hesitant to make conversation or let any of the younger cats near him. He doubted whether or not he'd ever be truly accepted as the warrior he knew he was. Sighing, he stood and turned toward the camp entrance, planning to roam about a bit, perhaps do some late night hunting to clear his mind.

    Mousefang flicked his eyes back toward the sound and responded with a sigh, "I was going to go hunt. A lot of prey comes out at night, you know." He turned to the voice with a forced smile. "Is that alright?"

    Mousefang hesitantly exited the shadows, checking the scent of the owl. "Hmm," he muttered, eying the bird, "you smell like ThunderClan, but I've never seen you around camp before."

    Mousefang nodded, stretching and stepping forward. "I've just joined recently. I come from a clan far from here." He shrugged. "It's a long story. But they lost my loyalty. I'm hoping the same will not become of ThunderClan." He looked the owl up and down. "I didn't know they made birds warriors here, though," he added.

    Mousefang glanced up at the sky, looking thoughtful. "Hmm... I guess if StarClan is alright with it..." He trailed off, looking back to the owl. "You could definitely help us with aerial attacks, no doubt." He nodded, grinning to himself. "Yes, I can see how that could work indeed. Name's Mousefang. And you are...?"

    Mousefang glanced around the ThunderClan camp, noticing most of his fellow warriors were sharing tongues or out hunting; some had even retired to the warrior's and apprentice's dens early. He frowned, glancing upward. Still relatively early, he thought. I could use a few cats to patrol the borders with me. After catching a strange scent in the forest recently, he had been on his toes, patrolling the area whenever he left camp. But it was too late for him to safely go alone. He'd need warriors.

    "It's..." Mousefang frowned, trying to find a good way to explain. "It's the place... er, no. It's a clan made up of the cats of the clans that have died. It's where clan cats--- or owls, I suppose--- go when they die. An afterlife of sorts." He gestured with his tail tip to the night sky. "You see those stars? Every time the clans lose a cat, a star is added." He smiled. "Those are our ancestors. They watch over us and guide us."

    Mousefang glanced around the Thunderclan camp, the eyes of many of the other cats burning into his pelt as he sat near the freshkill pile, unsure of what to do. He didn't know if ThunderClan functioned the way his kithood clan, LeafClan, had, and he didn't want to make any mistakes on his first night in the clan. He awkwardly shuffled a paw through the dirt as he waited for someone to give him something--- anything--- to do so he would no longer have to sit in the middle of the camp with those suspicious eyes on him.

    "The Lightnest?" Mousefang meowed, confused. "Is that StarClan for owls? I've heard many groups of cats have different afterlives... Like the Tribes. They don't necessarily go to StarClan."

    Mousefang turned to his approaching clanmates with a smile. "Frogleap! Grayclaw! Perfect. I wanted to investigate that odd cat-scent on the western side of our territory." He motioned with his tail in the general direction. "It seems that our intruder is paying their visits later in the night." He stood and began to pad toward the camp entrance. "Erm," he said with a pause near the fresh-kill pile, "have you two eaten yet?"

    Then it is like StarClan, Mousefang thought. I never knew other animals believed in those things as well. "Interesting," he replied with a smile. He glanced back toward the kit. "Erm, I'm glad we could chat, but what should we do about her?"

    Mousefang hesitated. "I don't know how happy the leader would be with me bringing her in. I did just join the clan. It may look bad to have me bringing in cats on my first night..." He shrugged. "But we can't just leave her here. That'd be against the warrior code." He padded over to the kit. "She wouldn't last out here alone."

    "Good," Mousefang replied with a nod. "Out we go then." He pushed through the entrance and waited on the other side for his clanmates, scenting the air and flexing his claws. "I'm hoping we're just dealing with a loner or kittypet," he meowed idly. "I don't think we could deal with a full on attack by ourselves."
