male | windclan | eighteen moons | warrior

Appearance
body-- though little can be see of his body build through his thick fur, what is discernible through his pelt is quite unremarkable. his body is an average size, not too big and not too small. he has a medium build good for both speed and strength, though it is slightly more inclined towards strength.
pelt-- his pelt is another matter entirely. it is long and coloured a deep, rich brown with just a hint of gold on his face, neck, chest, and underbelly. all of his body, except for his chest and underbelly, is overlaid with black classic tabby markings. the brown fades to an off-white colour on his muzzle and under his chin, giving him the appearance of wearing a light brown bib.
eyes-- his eyes are a very deep, dark amber with a slight tinge of green by his pupils.
Personality
shy ~ quiet ~ dreamer ~ gentle ~ sensible ~ determined ~ sensitive
ever since he was born, falconsong has always been a very shy cat. he can reply when spoken to and even carry out entire conversations, but he will never be the one to initiate the contact as it's just something he is too uncomfortable to do. he has minor anxiety problems that pop up from time to time, but, for the most part, he is quite calm.
most of his time, when he doesn't have any duties to attend to, is spent daydreaming. he loves to wander the windclan territory with his head lost in the clouds. but, he tries to put his clan first and does his best to make sure his dreaming doesn't interfere with the goings-on of the clan.
he is a very peaceful cat and prefers to avoid fighting at all costs. he would much rather resolve conflicts with words rather than with violence. this does make his warrior duties somewhat difficult as his gentle nature can spread to even cats of other clans and occasionally even to prey. however, falconsong is not a pacifist, and he will fight if he believes it is neccessary.
though he may be a dreamer, he is also quite sensible and logical. he has a knack for seeing into the heart of difficult situations and is rather adept at problem solving. while this skill may come of use quite often, he tries not to show it off unless he absolutely has to.
History
falconsong was born in windclan territory near the abandoned badger set. he was one of two kits born to a loner named alice and an unknown tom. alice was very young when they were born, and she feared that she wouldn't be able to take care of her kits. however, she wanted to try, so she named the two boys apollo and osseus. She decided to stay near the windclan territory though, just in case it turned out she wasn't ready to be a mother.
when the brothers were about a moon old, falconsong, then named apollo, fell gravely ill. not knowing what else she could do, she brought her son to the windclan camp and begged them to help her. the clan took the young kit in and nursed him back to health. after seeing how well her kit fit in with the clan cats, she asked the leader to allow him to stay. once she was certain he was going to be accepted into the clan, she left the territory with osseus.
half a moon after his mother left, apollo was given the clan name falconkit. at first the other cats treated him with suspicion and hostility, but his personality soon made them realize that they had no reason to fear him. as the moons went on, he grew closer and closer to the other cats of windclan; by the time he reached his apprenticeship, he truly felt like this was where he belonged.
he tried his hardest in his training and though he had a few difficulties, it quickly showed that he had what it takes to be a windclan warrior. at the age of twelve moons he was granted his warrior name, and has spent his time since then trying to be the best warrior he can for the clan that took him in.
