WREN

OUTSIDER

a small brown tabby she-cat with hazel eyes

Wren was named for the avian, the small almost helpless looking bird. she has tried all her life to get rid of her namesake, attempting to prove herself to others even if she really doesn't care what they think. in reality; she does. a very awkward cat, she is small of stature that makes her hunched shoulders and lowered head even more dismissive and overlooked.

she is thin and lean during leaf-bare when prey is hard to find. Wren gains weight - but not much - due to her skills as a hunter in easier seasons. she still lacks a community backing her up and does not have the upper paw when it comes to support. all in all, she is still 'weak' compared to trained Clan cats and fiercer rogues.

Wren comes in a few coat colors. the first is a light brown. this is her main coat color. the stark white on her chest, neck and underbelly come in second. she has darker brown stripes; but they are much more striking on her neck and skull. she has soft hazel eyes and a small white blaze on her snout.

the molly is highly suspicious of others and their intentions. she can be downright prickly and uncomfortable around strangers, especially in a group setting. this is much more geared toward friendly (or not so friendly) tom cats as Wren did not have a male father figure growing up. she tends to be critical of males as a whole, but also not very forgiving to other mollies either. she wears her skepticism well; it has served her as a survival tactic for moons. it makes gaining friendships difficult as she always looks for the worst in others. plucking their traits out, she is right until proven wrong.

as a rogue, Wren has learned to survive and do it best alone. she is not anti-social in any way, but prefers her own company. that way, nobody can disappoint her. she can be an introvert, blaming herself for driving others from her. she is highly judgmental of her own actions to the point of being pessimistic. Wren criticizes herself harshly. she feels alone but has no confidence to venture out and make that first move. then she becomes frustrated; perhaps even lashing out on the innocent in her fits.

but for all her difficulties socializing, you will not typically find a more loyal cat. true, her loyalty is hard earned - and she is not easily talked into things by more charismatic cats. taking that suspicion from earlier into account, Wren - tba
