Appearance
A coat of silky brown fur covers this guy from head to toe. The only other color he sports is white. A splotch it covers his chest and chin and all of his toes are white as well. Adderpaw's pelt is short and soft, but still protects his skin from the elements. His facial features are sharp and stand out. His eyes are a pale green that contrast with his dark pelt. Topped off with sharp ears, he is a very handsome young cat.
His body type is more lean and elegant than sturdy. He has a lithe, graceful form matched with long legs. He's about average in the muscle department. He's not weak, but he's not the strongest cat around. Adderpaw has a long tail for good balance and his reflexes are incredibly fast. He's also very good at catching scents. His nose is probably his best weapon.
Personality
Adderpaw is a gentle and courteous cat. He doesn't like to argue and he will usually walk away during one if it gets ridiculous. He hates it when others don't have manners, or rather, when they don't use manners. Despite his kindness, this tom has no patience whatsoever. However, this is hidden under a mask that he carefully plays off of. He has pretty low self-esteem, but hides it well because of his masked nature.
He's pretty messed up inside. He criticizes himself way too much, which makes him nervous when doing something important. Adderpaw hides these thoughts inside his heart, because he doesn't want to come off as pathetic to anyone else. He plays it off well, putting on a smile and throwing a joke out there. On the other hand, he's very reliable and if he promises you something, he keeps it. One of the worst things you can do in his book is lie. Which can be hard for other cats because he is brutally honest. He's the type of cat that will tell it how it is, but in the gentlest way possible. He hates making other cats feel bad.
History
Adderpaw came into the warrior world on a crisp Newleaf morning. He was born to a beautiful queen named Willowstep, and her loving mate Mudpelt. They were very loving parents indeed, but not ready for a litter of kits. Not mentally, that is. They didn't understand the responsibilities that come along with the miracle. All Willowstep wanted to do was to get out of the crowded nursery and back to her warrior duties. She often left her kits alone. Though there was only Adderkit, it still wasn't a good idea.
Willowstep did, however, have one other kit. About fourteen moons earlier, she'd had a litter of one with a tom that is still unknown to Adderpaw. That kit was now Sandfoot, their older sister. She took the responsibility of him under her wing and acted as his mother. A good mother she was. Sometimes Adderkit forgot Sandfoot wasn't his actual mother. He didn't mind, though. As long as he had someone to look up to, this kit was fine. By six moons, he was named Adderpaw. Now, he's grown and trained for three moons. Sandfoot still looks after him with a careful eye and continues to be the one he puts his trust into.
