Wolfstripe
Age: 43 moons
Gender: Male
Clan: LightClan
Appearance: Wolfstripe was built primarily for brawn, possessing a stocky, tall build that make him into an exceptional warrior. He is swathed in a dark tabby coat, comprised primarily of greys and hints of brown. The darker tones are contrasted by the flash of white on his mouth and chin, and light creams highlight intense emerald orbs. His fur is often unruly and unkempt, the tom caring little for vanity. And yet, overall he manages to be quite the handsome cat, if one could get past his difficult nature.

Personality: Wolfstripe isn't impressed by much of anything, and has little patience for those who waste his time. He tends to withhold empathy from most situations, and keeps to himself unless there is a matter that directly interests him, or if you happen to be good company. Because of this, he can come across as cold, and sometimes even unlikable. But anyone who knows him well enough would tell you that he is devoted to his clan without a fault, and that he would go to great lengths to ensure their success. He has no qualms with drawing a little more blood than necessary, and has a slightly harsh way of thinking. Wolfstripe isn't someone you would want to get on the bad side of, as he takes matters of betrayal very seriously, and has a vengeful side - yet to be unearthed - that would drive him to create misery for those who wrong him.
Charisma has never been something he seemed to possess much of, or perhaps he simply chose not to use it, his mind not seeing the value in protecting others' feelings when he had something to say. Wolfstripe is often the first to hurl an insult at an enemy line, or make a snide remark about someone whom he holds a low opinion of. He has a sense of humor, at least, however offensive. The brutish tom is certainly an acquired taste. What he lacks in social ability, however, he makes up for with an exceptional mind, and a daring yet creatively strategic method of action. He may not possess the diplomatic patience that is required of most in charge, but he does have a firm grasp on decision-making, and will naturally assume the role of leader when in a situation that requires it.
History: Wolfkit was a name suggested to his parents by fellow warriors that made note of his greyish, untamed pelt and the wild gleam in his eye. He was an adventurous kit from the start, constantly getting into trouble by sneaking into places he wasn't supposed to be in and getting into mischief in and sometimes outside of camp. In comparison to his two sisters, whom were much calmer and obedient, he was quite the handful. Entertainment did not come from the other kits, much less his sisters, but rather the things and places he would discover. By the time he became an apprentice, not much had changed, and his mentor often had difficulties getting him to listen. In time, however, the two began to grow on each other, and Wolfpaw developed a playful affection for the old tom. Whatever spare time he had away from his mentor, Wolfpaw spent teaching his sisters new battle techniques. In return, they would attempt to teach him how to hunt more effectively, although he failed to appreciate the art as much as they did, and vice versa. He did grow closer with them at this stage in his life, however, and he regretted not doing so at an earlier age. When he became Wolfstripe, he had matured considerably, thanks to his mentor, but he'd also lost some of his energy. At a young age, he was given his own apprentice to mentor, but his relationship with him suffered as the youngster was, much like himself, unwilling to listen to orders. Wolfstripe never formed the same attachment with his apprentice that he had with his own mentor, and after watching him become a warrior, the two did not speak much afterwards.
Over the years, he seemed to distance himself once more from his friends and family, as he did not often see eye-to-eye with them. He no longer hunted with his sisters, and he felt more indifferent than he should when his parents eventually passed of old age. He has been more or less alone ever since, but did meet his good fortune when a band of rogues had threatened the clan's safety and taken the life of their former deputy. Though Wolfstripe had always been recognized as a formidable warrior, he served as a primary strategist in their demise, and because of this a new light was shed upon him. At the age of 41 moons, Wolfstripe was surprised but pleased to be named the next deputy of LightClan. He has been working hard to live up to his new title, despite many negative opinions of him, is beginning to see a new future within the clan: one where he will someday not only have a more important say in the dealings of the clan, but perhaps lead it.
Family: He has two sisters within the clan whom he has grown apart from. (PM me if you'd like to play one; can be warriors or med cat)
