Short description:
A tom with green eyes and a rusty brown pelt.
Physical Description:Rowanblaze is a large, rather muscular tom with a knack and love for hunting rather than fighting. Though this male is proficient in combat, he prefers the rush of catching prey to the feel of claws on flesh and it is aided by his powerful hind legs. His legs lend him the strength to climb up trees and leap and weave through the topmost branches to catch prey. The treetops offer a superior way of transportation in his eyes and he loves to utilize them.
His pelt color can be described as an overall dark rustic brown that fades into a lighter ginger on various portions of his body. His paws, face, the fur of his hindquarters, and the length of his tail are the darkest points on his pelt while his ears and chin are the lightest. There are a few small, very dark stripes visible on his forehead that run down towards his muzzle. These are the only stripes on his pelt. Rowanblaze's eyes are a vivacious green.
His fur is longer than the average cats', but especially so on his tail. It is incredibly long and feathered looking there.
Personality:Rowanblaze is fiercely loyal to Thunderclan, but he is not one to swiftly jump to battle in her name. He'd much rather stand back and view the various options before choosing to fight, making sure that it is the correct and most beneficial approach before it is too late. You could say that this makes him one of the more tactical thinkers. He is caring, protective, and tries to be a wise rock for the clan, though this can lead to him hiding his own emotions from everyone. Sometimes it's hard for him to speak on his feelings, so he'll put on a facade that portrays everything as fine on the inside.
Like with most cats, Rowanblaze can be very serious when the time comes, fierce if the situation calls for it, and downright scary if pushed far enough, but his alternate side (when he isn't taking care of business) is fairly easygoing and playful. He'll play games with the kits and apprentices, make patrols fun if he can, and generally try to make things better for everyone. You can always count on him to lighten the mood when needed, but only if the situation doesn't require utmost urgency and seriousness. Often times he can be found visiting the Queens and kits and helping the apprentices along in their training if their mentors are too busy.
He is charming and usually cheerful, taking a positive approach on most things. He's one to give second chances, even if the cat in question may not deserve it, though he isn't stupid and will always keep a close eye on them from then on. This can be considered a negative trait, as well as his stubbornness and tendency to speak his mind bluntly. He is always careful, however, to curb his opinions and tongue around the younger cats within the clan.
His favorite things include hunting, tree climbing, running through the treetops, and visiting the kits, queens, and elders on his free time.
History:Rowanblaze was taken into Thunderclan as a young kit, abandoned by his loner mother, whom he has no memory of, for being the runt of the litter. He was raised by a surrogate queen and given the name Rowankit for his reddish brown pelt.
Soon enough he was made into an apprentice, mentored by one Jayleaf who retired some moons after he was made a warrior. Jayleaf was a fantastic mentor who taught him all that he knew about fighting, hunting, and tracking. He was the one who progressed his love of hunting and climbing trees, teaching him many methods of combat and hunting that were best utilized from the treetops. There was one point, however, in which he thought that he'd never climb again. During the last leg of his apprenticeship, Rowanblaze was out catching squirrels when his paw slipped after a shaky landing and he almost tumbled to the forest floor. He was only saved by his leg snagging in the fork of a heavy branch. This left him with a sprain that extended his apprenticeship an extra moon.
Once a warrior, Rowanblaze did his best to perform all of his duties to his fullest potential. He gained a reputation for volunteering often and that led him to receiving his own apprentice, a sickly youngster by the name of Shrewpaw. It was a long and hard apprenticeship for both mentor and kit. Shrewpaw fell ill several times over the course of 7 moons during which he couldn't be taught anything, but eventually he learned enough to be named a warrior. Unfortunately, before the ceremony could be carried out formally, Shrewpaw fell gravely ill with greencough. Just before his passing the apprentice was named Shrewcloud. Rowanblaze was 24 moons old at the time.
Now he has mourned and moved past the passing of his former apprentice, Rowanblaze continued to be a productive member within the clan until he was graciously offered the position of Deputy by their leader, Bramblestar.
