NAME;; Tallkit, Tallpaw, Tallcloud
AGE;; 18 moons
GENDER;; tom
CLAN;; SwiftClan
RANK;; warrior
IMAGE;; xXx
APPEARANCE;; At first sight, Tallcloud is a very impressive sight. He towers over most of his clanmates, perhaps looking Lionheart in the eye or just a bit above. Tallcloud is very skinny but not unhealthily so, just very lean. He stands tall and proud at all times with a piercing green gaze that seems always to be locked in a stern mask. His pelt is feather-like in appearance and texture, easily hiding all his battle scars. The coloring is stunning newly-fallen-snow white, unbroken by other colors or markings. Rather large, alert auds crown his skull, a long muzzle adding to his stern, chilly appearance. Needle-sharp clear claws are hidden in his paws, usually finding their mark in his enemies. As for his tail, Tallcloud has a plume-like tail that is feathered and soft, blending perfectly with the rest of him. His eyes favor a leaf-green appearance like the color newly budded leaves are during newleaf.
PERSONALITY;; As you would expect from his outward appearance, Tallcloud is rather withdrawn and likes his privacy despite being raised in a clan full of cats. He's very intelligent and wise when he speaks though he often won't voice his opinions unless spoken to or if it is something very important. He can be patient but he does have a breaking point and whining will instantly find you on Tallcloud's hit list and you'll remain on his list of annoyances for a LONG time. Tallcloud is easily annoyed and in the early mornings can be grumpy but never complains, preferring to simmer in his annoyance until he blows up at someone. When Tallcloud looses his temper, it's usually not always obvious because he keeps his temper quiet. Rather then making a huge deal out of things, Tallcloud takes to making one's life miserable which he is quite capable of doing, being the sly and cunning creature he is. Believe it or not however, Tallcloud does know how to lighten up. He just chooses not to. It'll take a special cat to make him purr or laugh but it is possible.
HISTORY;; Born into SwiftClan, it was obvious that he was an almost perfectly built cat for this particular clan because of his long legs and skinny build. He was the son of Cloudstorm and Peachtail and had four siblings; Smokekit, Thornkit, Bluekit and Galekit. Bluekit and Galekit were Tallkit's sisters while Smokekit and Thornkit where is brothers. For the most part the kits got along well enough with Thornkit being the main outsider. In these days, Tallkit was much more open and happy than he currently is, mainly because nothing horrible had happened. Yet. When he was four moons old, a badger clawed its way into the den when the clan was at a Gathering. With only Peachtail and two other warriors to help, things didn't go well. The badger killed Thornkit and Galekit before anyone even knew what was happening. It was Smokekit that roused the alarm, Tallkit frozen in horror and unable to move.
When he came around, he was in Sparrowcall's den and his family was either dying or fighting for their lives. Peachtail had died trying to protect Smokekit and Smokekit was fighting to stay alive. Thornkit had somehow disappeared and no one could confirm one way or the other if he was dead or alive. After two days he was given up for dead and Smokekit died from his wounds. That was when Tallkit shut down. He became quiet and withdrawn, hissing at anyone that got too close. His saving grace was his mentor, Butterflywing, a young and unexperienced but compassionate new warrior. Though Butterflywing did help to crack Tallpaw's traumatized mind a little, she never could fully unlock the cat Tallpaw had once been. The way he thought of it was part of him died with his family.
When he became a warrior, Tallcloud was proud but neither voiced it or showed it. Instead he remained solemn and sad, staring at Silverpelt through the night of his vigil and remembering and wandering. Would his brothers and sisters be with him? Would Peachtail be happy? Would Cloudstorm be proud? He never got an answer.
