The Basics Name • Rosecloud [Conn] Nickname • Rosy, daydreamer Age • 51 Gender • male Sexuality • he has no idea Rank • warrior The Looks Short Description • Long-haired cream tabby tom with minimal white spotting and amber eyes. Body Type • Substantial Overall Looks • Rosecloud is a large, long-haired cream tom cat. He has no visible scars, his fluff covering the few nicks and scrapes he's acquired. His orange eyes are round and expressive, giving him a young, innocent face, which isn't far from the truth. The toes on his front paws are white, and he has a tiny white locket on his chest almost obscured by the flowy, fluffy nature of his pelt. Generally, Rosecloud just looks soft; his peach colored fur appears downy and comfortable, easy to snuggle into, and his wide, friendly eyes are inviting and inquisitive. You'd be hard pressed to find a better snuggle buddy. The Personality Likes (four plus) - Long walks - Fae - Cuddling - Open, intimate discussions Dislikes (four plus) - Lying - Fighting or arguing - Pessimistic attittudes - Rain Strengths (two plus) - Soothing tempers - Big Boy Weaknesses (two plus) - Too empathetic - Doormat Dreams (one plus) - True love Fears (one plus) - Being disliked Overall Personality • Rosecloud is kind and empathetic, if a bit air-headed. That's not to say he's unintelligent, more that he's philisophical; book smarts over street smarts, if you will. He tends to daydream and wax poetic, and enjoys long, quiet conversations about lifes purpose, moral quandries, clan politics, how to find happiness, etc. Rosecloud is also incredibly kind. His soft appearance blurs into his personality; unlike his namesake, he has no thorns. He's incapable of holding a grudge, and forgives without hesitation. He's always ready to be the shoulder to cry on, gently talking to those in distress or putting himself between two fighting clanmates to help resolve the issue. He can become more involved in other cats' problems than his own, worrying about them endlessly and fretting like a mother hen. Rosecloud is so stuck in his own head, in the emotions and problems of others, that he frequently forgets to take care of himself. Eating, sleeping, and grooming can fall to the wayside, until some cat reminds him that, hey, he has a physical body and it has needs, too. Unbeknownst to Rosecloud and his clanmates, the tom also has schizophrenia. He's had mild auditory hallucinations since he was young, but it has so far been misinterpreted as high fae sensitivity. In actuality he is around average, maybe even a little below, when it comes to sensing the fae. The History Mother • White-eye, 94 moons, elder, blind long-haired bicolor ginger mackeral tabby she-cat with green eyes. Father • Fawnface, 82 moons, senior warrior, long-haired solid cream tom with yellow eyes. Siblings • Sorrelscale, 51 moons, council senior warrior, long-haired red tabby bicolor she-cat. ( temp ) Other Important People • Puddleheart, mentor, 120 moons, elder, long-haired gray classic tabby she-cat with green eyes NPC Cockleheart, sister's mate maybe, 56 moons, warrior, brown mackeral tabby bi-color ( sparrowhawk ) Overall History • 0-6 Moons Rosekit grew up under the strict, protective watch of his mother, along with his sister Sorrelkit, and wasn't allowed to venture out and meet his father or clanmates until he was five moons old. The little tom didn't mind, he was a daydreamer from the start, and spent a lot of his time cuddled up with his mother or another nurse, listening to stories. On occassion he would be caught talking to empty air, his ears pricked but unable to hear what the cats around him were saying. He was assumed to be highly fae sensitive, able to see what others couldn't. Really, these were the first, minor manifestations of his schizophrenia. 7-17 Moons Rosepaw was given Puddleheart as his mentor, a big, fluffy gray she-cat with kind eyes and a pleasant demeanor. She didn't push Rosepaw too hard, letting the young tom meander his way through training at his own pace. He trained with Sorrelpaw on occassion, but his more ambitious sister easily left him in the dust; Rosecloud wasn't competitive, but the siblings weren't really helpful to one another in the physical sense. When Firescale had her accident, Rosepaw was distraught. He wasn't as close with her as Sorrelpaw, but his soft heart and empathetic nature, as well as his love for his mother, made the ordeal frightening. He spent a lot of his free time with her, hovering for the most part. He watched the infection in her eye worsen, and then nearly heal; when it came back, worse than ever, the little tom feared they would lose their mother completely, and spent a lot of evenings sniffling, his face hidden in Sorrelpaw's fur. In the end Firescale lost her sight but not her life, and Rosepaw was both heartbroken for her and relieved. For such an active, ambitious warrior, this was a huge blow, and he did his best to help his mother adjust and keep herself busy. As Firescale got used to life without sight, Rosepaw would lead her around camp, familiarising her with the layout again, and when she was ready he would go out with her on walks. Seeing his empathy, compassion, and patience, Puddleheart steered Rosecloud towards the nurses den for a time; he spent a moon visiting frequently, talking to the previous head nurse Pearflower, but ultimately decided he wasn't interested in pursuing that line of work. He spent some time in the Oracle's den as well, but he didn't have the memory for herbs, and moved on. His training was slower than his sisters; he eventually found his passion in being a mediator and something of a therapist to his clan-mates. He settled arguments between apprentices and young warriors, listened to the Elders and their frustrations, helped kits to understand and process emotion. When he finally mastered the hunting and fighting he would need to be a warrior, Rosepaw recieved the suffix -cloud for his skills, and proudly joined Sorrelscale in the warriors den. 17 - Present Rosecloud spent the beginning of his life as a warrior as most would; he spent time with his sister, went on patrols, and socialized with his clanmates. He became a little more scatter-brained, given so much freedom, and occassionally had to be reminded to groom himself, sleep, and eat; his head was just in other places. He comforted Sorrelscale through the death of her mentor when disease struck the clan, and was thankful that the aging Puddleheart hadn't also been taken from him. He was happy to see her growing closer with their father Fawnface, and still does his best to help guide her. As Sorrelscale climbed the ranks, Rosecloud backed her, always offering his time and support, advice too, if she needed it. He is incredibly proud of her, and takes every opportunnity to catch up with the busy molly. In recent moons, Rosecloud has developed a bit of a crush on fellow warrior Littlestream; her energy and attittude are something he admires, and her optimism is refreshing for the tom, who often spends his days listening to the worries and problems of his clanmates. His scizohphrenia is also starting to resurface; while the tom had a few auditory hallucinations growing up, with one or two visual ones, they were never frequent or damaging. As he gets older, he is experiencing them on a more regular basis. He is unaware that they are hallucinations, and no one in the clan has realized yet, either. the genes basic appearance • long-haired cream tom with one white spotting dominant genes• red, white spotting recessive genes • dilute, long hair the role player ooc name • Sol, Charms, or Rory, whatever works experience • 8+ years other characters • Shadefang, Nettlepaw, Hawthornflower, Chimney |
