Falcon Who Soars on broken wing
Tribe of floating stones
Long haired black smoke tom with green eyes. Missing left foreleg
to-be
Tom
7 moons
Appearance
Falcon boasts the same large frame as his parents, Blackbird and Talon. Well... It's not entirely the same... He has broad shoulders, a long tail and, though he is young, there is the promise of a densely muscled body. Three long legs will have him towering over his sisters, but that's where we run into a problem. Three long legs are all the Tribe of Endless hunting gave him. His left front leg has been missing from birth. The shoulder ends smoothly against his side with no nub to get in his way. It goes without saying that this leaves him with a serious limp and he gets from place to place with a hopping gait.
His is thickly furred, long hair keeping him warm in the cold moons. It would be simple to say that he was black, but his color is different from the solid black of his mother. He has a smoky undercoat that gives some variation to his color. He boasts a thick mane around his neck and down onto his chest where the gray beneath makes itself known. It looks almost like he wears the ruff of another cats fur around his neck. Along his body, the gray is also quite visible underneath his black. The only places where the black is strong are his legs, head and tail which gives him an almost pointed look.
His face bears thick features to match his hefty adult size. His muzzle is wide, his chin heavy and his ears large and tufted atop his head. His eyes are gentle, pale green, a trait of his mother's.

Personality
Something that Falcon always tries is to see the bright side to every situation. He tries to be cheerful at all times and spread that cheer to his tribe-mates. Generally an easy-going, laid-back goofball, Falcon has one sensitive spot and that spot is his missing leg. He is known to occasionally succumb to frustration and gloom when his disability holds him back.
He wants to do everything a normal cat can do and when he fails or has a difficult time because of his leg, he is quick to be disheartened. He tries to put on a brave face, mostly for his parents. He wants them to think that he thinks he can do anything. The last thing that he wants is for them to feel bad about his handicap, a problem that is not their fault in the least. If anyone tries to make fun of his short comings he reacts immediately defensive. He has a stubborn streak as long as the island is wide and, sometimes at personal cost, will not back down from his goals or arguments.
He looks up to his parents, idealizes them even, as protectors of the tribe. Falcon wants all the older cats of the tribe to be pleased with them. This can push him to be a bit of a show off as he is eager to show the elder cats that he can be an asset to the tribe. Everyone tells him that his Tribe mates will accept no matter what, but deep down, Falcon is still nervous that others think he is a three-legged burden. To prove the imaginary voices wrong, he pushes himself to do the best in can in every task presented to him and several that aren't.
