Amber that
has Eaten Bugs
Tribe of Floating Stones
orange and white tom with golden eyes
to-be
Tom
7 moons
Appearance
Amber is going to be a tom of average stature when he's older, but he's got the build for an athletic and muscular cat. Sharp shoulders and strong figure are a contrast to his kittish facial structure and features. Wide golden eyes fit below alert and pointed ears. His nose is a salmon pink, and always a bit shiny, as he's got a habit of swiping his tongue over it.
The boy's fur is a fervent orange that reflects brightly in the sunlight, and is what (along with the teller's advice) brought his parents to the name Amber. It's a soft yet thick texture for such a short length, a good bit of grooming has always been required to keep it glossy and unmatted. Below the fiery fur is a pearly white layer of fur that runs along his underbelly to his rump, and forms a little triangle above his nose. Faint tabby stripes mark his pelt and frame his eyes.

Personality
+ Extroverted - Amber is, in typical tribe cat fashion, fairly reliant on the support and care of his tribe mates. He seeks attention and love from every cat he comes into contact with, and gives it back where it is received. Open with his emotions, physically and verbally expressing them and seeking to use his abilities to aid those he cares for. For one so young he's got a lot of room in his heart for compassion, and is naturally a bubbly and friendly cat.
+ Selfless - Amber fears very little. He's perhaps over confident in his and his tribe's ability to have his back and stay safe. That being said he's ready to sacrifice whatever he needs to to protect what be believes in and cares for. He's always ready to give his best at any task and is not one to half-ass or quit. Brave, passionate, and hardworking. He's determined and full of heart, a combination that can be both dangerous to his own self preservation, and rewarding in the long run.
- Naive - This little fireball is unfortunately a bit too trusting. He's a bleeding heart, and can't bear to see anyone suffering or hurt. He cares deeply for his tribe and it's rules, but without really thinking would betray those statutes should they put anyone in danger. He doesn't boast rebelliousness, but he also wouldn't stand for anything that seems wrong. It makes him a bit to easy to take advantage of, and when he is duped and used, he beats himself up over it.
- Unfocused - Amber is prone to getting distracted. Much like his name, he might be hunting a shrew one moment but eating bugs the next, having entirely forgotten his quarry. He's a bit of an airhead at times. At heart he is determined and hardworking, but he can easily be lead off course with a little interference. And while he's definitely got a bright personality, he isn't really the brightest bulb in the bunch. He's got plenty of questions to ask, and probably twice due to his short attention span.
~ Eclectic - Amber loves things. When he has his own den it will likely be cluttered and full of little trinkets he's collected that he finds cool, like skulls or shells or other pretty things. He's eclectic in that regard, as well as in personality and train of thought. He's talkative and can pull thoughts out of thin air, making conversation with the tom rather spontaneous and exciting. For those who can keep up, he's incredibly entertaining, fun, and goofy.

History
Comparatively to some of the other cats in the Tribe of Floating Stones at the time, Amber's kithood was uneventful and simple. He was born in the latter months of leaf-bare to love struck mates Apple that Glows Red and Flicker Snuffed by Ash. Their's was a sweetheart love story, two to-be's smitten from the start. Betrayers in the eyes of some, as they abandoned their duties to the tribe as a whole during the sickness, so as to raise their kits. Maybe it was foolish, but it was what they felt was right.
As leaf-bare soared by, Apple's belly grew in size until finally as the snow was beginning to melt, she gave birth to two toms. Sand Warmed by Sweltering Sun and Amber that has Eaten Bugs. Amber was bright orange like his mom, and Sand a dulled ginger like his father. The new parents were thrilled, and more in love than ever.
Apple always coddled her kids, but not too much that they were spoiled. She should've perhaps let them learn lessons the hard way now and then and not been a raging mama bear should anything go amiss, but she still taught them to be kind, compassionate, and capable. Flicker visited the kits often and was as heavy presence as Apple in their kithood. Amber and Sand grew up healthy, quickly, and thick as thieves, ready to explore past the reaches of their protective parents.
At six moons old, both toms were made to-be's, and introduced into the tribe. Though unbeknownst to him, their being inducted received mixed emotions, some disapproving of the family, while some happy for the healthy new faces. Amber just tried his best, as always.
