─ smells of crisp wind and dried grass; cinnamon-y, intensely warm
─ sounds confident, deep, and smooth; easy to raise into a yell
─ 34 moons: NPC xx NPC; only child: former loner and rogue of gin's group; moor-runner of windclan.
✦ GRACIOUS, POISED, DISTANT, FOCUSED: stagcrest seems capable of a variety of emotions, but predominant over all is his calm. his smiles are polite, gentle even, but rarely warm; so too are his annoyance, grief, and disappointment. he's courteous and kind towards clanmates, but it's only once in a blue moon he really attempts to crack a joke. he's enigmatic, aloof in a way. there's a distinct cool about him, like he never does anything half-measured: he could make lying in a pool of sunshine seem purposeful. you have to wonder if it gets tiring being like that all the time, or if he was just born with it.
mostly for me and my rambles!
- a physical character, leans in close to talk. shoulder bumps, tail taps, sharing tongues. he knows what personal space is, but figures it's easier to start off assuming a looser tolerance. he wants to make others comfortable in his presence, while quietly showing he's quite comfortable in theirs.
- formal-ish, polite speech. he keeps you at a distance with his words even as he physically speaks them closer.
- fundamentally distrustful of others, but is a people person. he doesn't trust them to know whats best for themselves, and sometimes he's wrong
- struggles to genuinely care for others and is reasonably confident he only has a limited capacity for compassion (if he had to choose between caring deeply for one and caring shallowly for many, he isn't sure what he'd choose because he knows he instinctively prioritizes what he cares about).
- still, he gives his all for those around him, even if he can't quite care. it's just who he is. TALK MORE AB THIS IDK WHAT TO DO W THIS
- HE DOESN'T HAVE GOALS RN!! what he wanted to do in the city was survive, while thinking about ways to eradicate the dogs in the background. here...he doesn't know what to do with all this downtime.
- says things that give the illusion of choice. if he were ever in charge of assigning patrols: "would you like to join me on the dawn patrol or the sunhigh patrol?" you're going on one of them, but he conveniently forgot to mention the option of not going at all today.
- born with radial hypoplasia in his right foreleg, just a random mutation
- kittypet mother who escaped to the streets to be with his father. his father disappears one day, leaving his mother alone to raise him. stag would've actually grown even taller had it not been for malnutrition.
he has an amazing amount of core strength for a cat, due to a lifetime of rearing up to fight with one arm. he's also quick with his hind limbs and is more conscious of their use than the average, four-legged cat. still, stagcrest has an undeniably massive disadvantage with his missing limb. he hits like a train, but only when they land. he would be an even match for most fighting styles: his disability is bolstered by his ability to think on his feet. (tba: psychologically?)
