[RACCOONSTRIPE]

BASIC VISUAL MENTALITY RELATIONSHIPS & INTERACT PLAYLIST SKILLS CODE

• 
  
  RACCOON RACCOONSTRIPE ; ambivalent about his name
  

  Charming, manipulative, and ambitious, Raccoonstripe is the son of ThunderClan's current leader with plans to someday lead in her pawsteps. He wants ThunderClan to have comfort—but also, he wants glory for both himself and his Clan. Womanizing and sometimes even sleazy, Raccoonstripe can be a polarizing character.

  LONGHAIRED DARK BROWN TABBY WITH A SCARRED WHITE CHEST AND RICH BROWN EYES / TOYHOUSE
  Raccoonstripe is striking in a nondescript way. Tall and broad-shouldered, the young warrior carries himself confidently. He has long dark brown fur with rippling black stripes crosshatching their way down his back and flanks. His robust and powerful jaw is white, the paleness spilling like milk down his chest and underbelly. One forepaw is the same ivory while the others match his dark tabby pelt. Raccoonstripe has a thick, tapered tail with banded stripes, similar to his namesake's. His eyes are narrow, a dark but rich brown. Raccoonstripe has two thick horizontal scars across his chest. They were inflicted during the Great Battle by the two pine cats he killed.

  CHARISMATIC; CHARMING; PROTECTIVE; AMBITIOUS; CALCULATING; FLIRTATIOUS; CYNICAL; ARROGANT; CONDESCENDING; SHALLOW; MANIPULATIVE

  On the surface level, Raccoonstripe is a smug, overconfident tomcat who thinks he's 'too good' for menial labor. He uses charm, wits, and a silver tongue to get his way with others, though he makes himself an easy target for competition and for cats who are his equals to find him infuriating. He's confident of his position in his Clan as Howling Wind's son and Berryheart's littermate and truly believes he's destined for greater things.
  
  Flirtatious and winsome, Racoonstripe has never met a pretty cat he doesn't want to trail after, but his sense of romantic commitment is next to nothing. His goals and dreams are of power, of change, and it leaves little room for mates or kits in his mind. Additionally, to certain types of cats, he can come off too strongly or almost sleazy.
  
  Beneath this borderline sleazy, infuriatingly condescending exterior, Racoonstripe is calculating and judgmental. Like his mother, he believes kittypets to be inferior and the other Clans to lack something integral that ThunderClan is working to build. Raccoonstripe holds no illusions about friendship with any of the other four Clans, even SkyClan, the home of his sister's mate. To him, there is a reason StarClan dictated they split into five groups, and boundaries should be maintained. If Raccoonstripe were to consider alliances, it'd be strictly political.
  
  Skilled in battle with a barbaric fighting style, Raccoonstripe earned his scars in the Great Battle -- and paid the blood price for his victories. An apprentice-aged cat from the pine group had attacked him to attempt to discourage him from attacking a queen, presumably his mother. In blind fury, consumed by war, Raccoonstripe fought and killed them both. He does not speak of this to anyone, not his mother, not his littermates, and never to a tom or she-cat he courts.
  
  But sometimes, they walk in his dreams. They stare at him from the shadows with unblinking eyes. When Raccoonstripe faces young enemies on future battlefields, his victims' faces will peer back at him, and there is a possibility he will freeze.

  ●●●●●●●●●●
  

  ●●●●●●○○○○ HUNTING: Adequate. Can hold his own, but is not especially skilled. Well-versed in forest hunting with lots of undergrowth. Most likely to be successful hunting mice, squirrels, shrews, and voles. Less likely to be successful with lizards, frogs, birds, and rabbits. Does not know how to fish.

  ●●●●●●●○○○ CLAN SKILL: Proficient. ThunderClan is a jack-of-all-trades Clan, but he is especially bulky and strong-bodied. Can climb, though is not an expert. Decent builder and reinforcer for camp defense.

  
  

  ●●●●●●○○○○ TRACKING: Adequate. He is not especially known for his tracking skills, but he can hold his own. Can follow scents in fair weather well, but is likely to lose them in rainy or otherwise unfavorable conditions.

  ●●●●●●●●●○ COMBAT: Expert. Brutal, barbaric, and surprisingly quick on his feet for his build, Raccoonstripe is a hard-hitter and a skilled tactician. He is not especially swift, and he's more likely to take blows than he is to dodge them, his broad shoulders and chest make an easy target, though his thick fur deflects flesh wounds that could be deeper.
