Name: Ravenfoot
Meaning: raven- for his dark grey fur, foot- for his speed
Clan: Windclan
Age: 18 moons
Gender: male
Appearance: Ravenfoot's pelt is a deep grey. His eyes are a bright yellow colour, and slightly slitted looking. His tail is very long and is the perfect tool for balancing when hunting on the open moors of windclan. Despite his long and nimble legs Ravenfoot has rippling muscles on his shoulders and is strong for how young he is. His paws are normal sized but have long white claws that clash with his black coloring when unsheathed. His pelt has slight grey/white mottling in places, along with one pure white toe. Ravenfoot's ears are also normal sized but are usually flipped one way or another listening for some sounds. His whiskers are long and very sensitive, and perfectly black.
Personality: Ravenfoot is a quiet cat. He doesnt say much, and when he does its generally in a rage. This cat cannot contain his temper, thats for sure. He is quick to anger and somehow gets into fights despite his lack of talking (or perhaps its a lack of communication that causes it). He is absolutely terrible at talking things out which causes even more trouble with other cats. Ravenfoot has a hard time getting his words and feelings out and will turn to action and anger instead. He is also is fairly flawed in the fact that he holds grudges for quite a long time. But Ravenfoot has a ton of love for his clan, and is very much so a "big brother" type to younger cats. He honestly enjoys teaching young cats, and gets a lot of joy out of mentoring.
Ravenfoot is fairly religious when it comes to starclan, and trusts whatever they have said. Its probably a weakness to the point he could be manipulated by any cat using "starclans words" to him. he has a lot of faith in the starry cats though and is very faithful to the medicine cat and leaders words because of this. Another fault is that he can be rather proud of his skills, and over-estimates himself. Due to this, when he falls, he falls hard. Overall hes a decent cat, despite his fire-y attitude and pride.
History: Ravenfoot- then just Raven- was a tiny malnourished kit, living with his clanless mother. His father was seldomly seen, not really wanting much to do with the she-cat as soon as kits were in the picture. Ravenfoot had one sibling, who died very young. He grew and stayed with his mother, living as a loner. Ravenfoot's mother tried to do her son good, but lost most of her motivation for life after her mate left after her kits were born. She blamed herself and did not really give Ravenfoot the love and care of a mother on the emotional level he probably needed. She cared for him- teaching him to hunt, stay quiet, etc. but was not there for him personally.
When Ravenfoot was about 6 moons old his mother died. She went to hunt for them both and was killed by a fox. Ravenfoot had no idea until, after a day, she didnt return and he set out to find her. He found his mother's body and was furious. He blamed her for leaving him, blamed the fox for taking her, blamed his absent father for not being there. He was very angry for a while. Ravenfoot stumbled upon windclan territory at 8 moons old. The clan ended up taking him in and he was made an apprentice. Through clan life he was able to find peace about his early life in his starry ancestors. He devoted himself to his clan and found the life pleasing, and lives in windclan as a warrior now.
