FLOODKIT

LICHENCLAN

Large, cameo classic tabby tom with amber eyes.

Though only a kit, from a single glance one can tell the type of cat Floodkit will grow into. His name is only fitting, being the largest of his siblings in both height and build. At this current stage, however, he has all the awkwardness of a young kit- long straggly legs in comparison with his more compact siblings. Nonetheless, he remains the largest, and won't miss any chances to gloat as such.

Only adding to his size is Floodkit's long fur, one day promising to sculpt his head and neck much like a mane, with a glorious plumed tail much like his mother. His belly fur already stretches low, even if his fur is straggly at such a stage. Bright red classic tabby swirls are accentuated by the pale silvering cream of the rest of his pelt, his appearance striking in the resemblance of a blazing fire. White fur coats his extremities and straggly belly fur, as well as his long-whiskered muzzle, though it blends almost unnoticeably into the rest of his pale coat.

Though with the undefined and rounded features of a kit, Floodkit already shows a characteristic sharpness in his visage. His muzzle is boxy and large in comparison with the rest of his face, his ears large and pointed at the tips with accentuating tufts of wispy red fur. Most striking of all, when growing out of the kit-blue phase, his eyes are a bright amber. In suiting the pale fur of his face, Floodkit's nose and inner ears are a soft shade of pink.

|| Passionate | Steadfast | Self-reliant | Stoic | Loyal ||

A lot could be said about Floodkit, but none can deny his passion. Always eager to hear a good story about his late father, Floodkit always aims to be the cat that his family can look up to, through any means necessary. He's always been steadfast in his beliefs, strong-willed and proud of his legacy, always eager to please. His pride has already planted the seed of self-reliance in this young tom, who's already pushing to be the one relied upon where he can. As far as Floodkit knows, his father's pawsteps were large ones to follow in, and he finds relying on himself to be a good start. So far, Floodkit has maintained a stoic demeanour, and makes it a point to suck up any injuries or harsh words he receives for his misbehaviour. At the end of the day, it must be his duty... And Floodkit is well aware of it. He maintains loyalty to his Clan, though more importantly so, his family and its values. No matter what, Floodkit knows he'll stick by them - he must.


|| Egocentric | Narrow-minded | Callous | Irascible | Impressionable ||

Legacy does have its downfalls, however. Floodkit is known to brag and throw his weight around, being quite the nuisance to his denmates. As far as he's concerned, he's the most promising of his litter, and thus, his duty must be to keep the others to standard! His narrow-mindedness makes him difficult to come to an understanding with, and he often stubbornly argues against the peace LichenClan is working hard to accomplish. He comes across as quite callous as a result, not seeming to care much for the struggles of others. Surely, if he can deal with his...
Floodkit has a tendency to be irritable, sometimes even quick to lash out, though only to those he assumes himself stronger than. To many other cats, however, he's oddly impressionable. Most notably of all, he looks up to his older siblings and his mother with a certain glee, unquestioningly following their whims at a moment's notice. Floodkit seems to want nothing more than to make them proud, and is often bending to their whims to do so.

Wavefrost and Falconfire could easily be described as a traditional pair; loyal LichenClan warriors any kit could be proud to be borne to. Sacredkit and Holykit, the first living pair of kits from this couple born in the midst of leaf-bare could argue for this. With war came uncertainty, though at its end came hope. The pair were born once the timeless feud against LichenClan and RedwoodClan had ceased, strong and loyal all the same. Faith guided their pawsteps, blessed as they were, their mother and father instilled in them a strong respect for the stars.

Many moons later, however, the time came for the next litter. The bond between Wavefrost and Falconfire had only kindled and strengthened from there, though despite the love their parents shared, tragedy overlaid the joy of Floodkit and his siblings' birth. Floodkit had only just missed the opportunity to meet his father, if only with his eyes still closed. Sacredpaw had broken the news himself, having watched his father be slain in a battle against a pair of RedwoodClan cats. Not even a day old, Floodkit already had all the reasons he needed to despise their new allies, and his mother only strengthened this stance through her grief.
