Specklepaw

[Speckled Tiger]

Name: Specklepaw
Age: 13 moons ( 1 year 1 month )
Gender: Tom
Allegiance: MarshClan
Picture: Speck

Appearance: A dusty brown spotted tabby with a spread of white and pale green eyes. His fur is short in length but thick and tight together, has white toes on all paws. Lighter brown almost a ginger in shade on his face under his right eye and the right side of his muzzle. He's around the average height and weight of a feral tom cat with barely an whisker-length separating him from being taller than others. 

Personality: Erratic // Speckle is always a jumpy bundle of nerves and thoughts, never being able to keep a conversation going or a planned thought. He can't keep to a single task and complete it. He fiddles and fidgets all the time never able to keep still even if held down. \\

Negligent // He'll slack off within seconds of being given a task without really meaning it. Speckle has a known history to just ignore problems or things that cause him stress, this leads to more stress and problems that back fire onto him. Speckle misses meals, forgets to groom himself, drink water, and even sleep since this impacts him negatively and others. \\

Flippant // Won't bother to show respect to anyone that he thinks doesn't deserve it which is likely everyone around him. Doesn't take punishment or talking-to's seriously though it is meant to keep him safe. He isn't serious about his training either. \\

Finicky // Surprisingly when he is interested in something Speckle will pay obsessive attention to details. Shows more often when he's picking out a meal than anything else and other times he is very hard to please, finding flaws in everyone and himself. \\

Neurotic // Over-sensitive to harsh words though won't show it leading to mental battles with himself and his self-worth. He's quite high-strung when things finally come crashing down around him and this causes nervous break-downs. Often mumbles to himself and kneads the ground when thinking to much. \\

History: Kithood: His parents weren't really ready to have kits but were planning to have them so when his mother fell pregnant it was half-welcomed news. Due to it being her first litter only 2 kits were born, Speckle and Patch. For the first 2 moons of their life their mother adored them and cared for them like any protective mother would but when Speckle started to act out oddly when the lessons started for him to learn how to speak and play properly attention flickered towards Patchkit who was a quick learner.

This continued on and off till other queens stepped in and taught Speckle major things even if he wasn't the perfect student. They even gave the medicine cat to check him out and all that could be done for him is a poppy seed to calm him and make him focus though the black seeds should have tired him.

Apprenticeship: Speckle was in need of a calming and patient mentor that can deal with his personality. Wasn't given that and instead a strict tom became his mentor and now nearing 13 moons has jumped from mentor to mentor since the older cats just can't deal with him.


RP Sample: (( Taken from a rp on skype )) Rainpaw flicked his tail in annoyance as his mentor went on with the speech about him not leaving to hunt on his own. //He really does talk a lot..\\ His gaze wandered away from his mentor's form as boredom grew. There really wasn't a reason his mentor should be giving him this speech since hunting means more food and almost everyone older than 6 moons hunted alone quite often.



"So you're saying I shouldn't hunt alone because I might get attacked? On our own clan territory, I would get attacked" He flicked his ear to the side as he caught the end of his mentor's rant. "Way to make me feel safe" He grumbled before he huffed at his mentor snapping angrily and ordering him back to camp.



//What so you can hunt alone after just telling me it's dangerous?\\ Rainpaw pupils narrowed before he gave a lash of the tail and turned towards SparrowClan camp though he wouldn't be heading to camp once out of sight of his mentor. Scoffing to himself he steered his steps from camp within seconds of being out of sight of his mentor, //It's not dangerous since we're at peace with all the clans and what rogue or loner can get this far into our territory? Have to go through SnakeClan's territory first\\


Other: If you need warriors more than apprentices I can change him to a warrior and finish up his history. His parents and sibling can be NPC's since that's easier on everyone but if his sibling needs to be played I'll put him up on the adoption board?
