entitled and close—minded, unmotivated and selfish. will always have his own intentions in mind, wanting the best for his own gain with no knowledge or understanding that he may be hurting others. likes attention and will manipulate the feelings of others in order to make himself feel better; often acting higher than he should be regarded as to try and impress those around him. a self—conscious apprentice turned recent skittish warrior, denoting his previous his health and happiness for that of constant training in order to push himself to be the greatest. guilty of self—deprecation due to lack of parental figures in his childhood and current warriorship, heaviness from the burden he put on his parents weighing down his prideful stature. snappy and literal, taking everything at face—value due to lack of social understanding leading to constant corrections or sudden vocally aggressive outbursts. sticks to the shadows and corners of any location he may find himself at, silent in paw—steps and tongue as he lurks, showing his recent success as a hunter. prefers to not speak his mind unless directly addressed, not one for arguments. level—headed, smart yet not intelligent. awkward in conversations and nature, becomes anxious and skin tends to warm up if addressed. easy to embarrass, bad at coming up with comebacks.
lh chocolate tabby w/ low white. although unusually small for most of his young life, lanky limbs now sprawl around with a forced confidence to replace the awkward gait he held during his apprenticeship. however, stance mimics that of an adder snake — his limbs softly swaying him side to side as his tail slithers in frantic bouts. expression holds that of disgruntlement and stoicism, eyebrows furrowed and eye—lids droopy to compliment glazed over sun—colored pupils. also struggles to show expressions and emotions, often giving the impression that he doesn't give a damn about anything. long, curly fur frames his angular face with an elegance, fur often tidy to maintain his clean, uptight appearance. voice is smooth, a little more on the higher pitched side with monotone tunes. mannerisms include shortening words to make his speech easier (i.e. using "ya" instead of "you" or "yeah" / "'m" instead of "i'm"), encountering stutters or difficulty pronouncing words, a tendency to mumble most of his words. drags his claws into the dirt or grinds teeth if nervous or uncomfortable, drifts off into thought if someone is droning on in conversation about a topic that may disinterest him — though he does not expect the same disrespect towards himself if he is speaking highly of his interests.
* born to robinstripe and possumclaw as an only kit, greeted by frowning faces as the promptly named 'adderkit' mewled in pitiful weakness. raised more by the queens that surrounded him in the nursery than his own parents, their absence dwelled heavily on him throughout his growing months as bitterness seeped into his veins. his siblings, too, minded him no attention and seemed to act as if he were not there. learning to hide himself in the shadows, he refused to converse with the other kits in the nursery until his apprenticeship. eventually finding solace in the creatures that roamed in the same darkness, this impacted his hunting abilities when he was forcibly pushed into the constant business of everyday clan—life as an apprentice. assigned to mossywing, the senior warrior retired to the elder den after a month due to reasons undisclosed to him, though were revealed to howlingstar that he just couldn't take his unwillingness to try, to push himself in any way. reassigned to leafhusk, he continues to slack until the arrival of the wolves to thunderclan territory. terrorized by the wolves that swarmed into camp one frightful night, the shock and fear kept him from wanting to explore the forest of his land, the lack of sleep driving him to further hysteria. leafhusk stepped in to arrange a 'group—therapy session', where he admitted his fears of failure and beliefs that he could never be strong. from this point on, he began to focus on training past his limits to become the warrior he was meant to be — to make not his parents or his siblings proud, but for himself and leafhusk. passed assessment by catching three different types of prey, one of which being a blue jay. three feathers were plucked delicately from what he now associated as 'prey' and stuck into his tail as a reminder. recently named 'addersnap' for his sharp tongue by howlingstar.
