Mothpaw is almost feminine in build, lithe and slender, made to move quickly and lightly; he is not particularly strong, but his agility is more than enough to make up for the lack. His fur is snow white, short and thick, splashed liberally with a distinctive dusky brown, masking his face and ears, splattering his back and ringing up his lengthy tail. His claws are bow-curved, suited well to climbing, augmenting his talent at hunting significantly, and his eyes are a brilliant emerald green, the color of leaf-green leaves, and easily his most noticeable feature, their expression perpetually distant, looking through you rather than at you. He gives off a strangely ethereal air and can often be found smiling dreamily, as if he knows something others don't and is completely at peace with the world.
PERSONALITY
Positive Traits: Calm, level-headed, intelligent, strategic, compassionate, loyal.
Flaws: Spacey, easily-distracted, forgetful, somewhat irresponsible, doesn't always adhere to the warrior code.
Fears: Thunder, not being able to protect the ones he loves.
Quirks: Prone to day-dreaming, strangely fond of butterflies, twitches in his sleep.
Ideals: He values intelligence and loyalty, though not necessarily just loyalty to one's Clan.
Overall: Among the general opinion, Mothpaw is viewed as a little strange; his distant, dreamy nature keeps him from concentrating on something for more than a few minutes, and he always seems to be day-dreaming about one thing or another, staring absently off into space with a knowing smile. While not a pacifist, he is fascinated by even the smallest living thing and values all life equally, finding joy just as much in a spiderweb as a rainbow. He has an unusual affinity for butterflies, and will oftentimes drop all activities just to watch one, utterly enraptured, as if he sees something no one else can in such a tiny creature.
He is unusually mature for his age, almost wise, and often acts as a mediator between the other apprentices, valued for being able to find a compromise for every conflict. He is, however, very forgetful, and even forgets his clanmates' names from time to time, seemingly existing in an entirely different world from the rest of ShadowClan, drifting in some sort of ether. He is compassionate and friendly, but not a very good listener, easily distracted and somewhat irresponsible.
Mothpaw is well aware of the tenets of the warrior code, but doesn't always understand the reasoning behind them. He breaks the tenets without qualm when he feels that his choice is right.
HISTORY
Family: Lilypelt - 39 moons - living (Played by Willow)
History: Mothpaw was born approximately eight moons ago, the lone product of a forbidden union between his mother, Lilypelt, and a RiverClan tom. His mother reserved the right not to reveal the identity of the father to her clanmates, and her wish was respected; to this day not even Mothpaw knows the identity of his sire.
Mothpaw had a relatively uneventful kithood, though even from the beginning he has been distant, and a little strange. Ever since he can remember his sleep has been disturbed by strange, surreal dreams whose meaning he has never been able to decipher, but otherwise, there is really little worthy of mention.
His recent transition to apprenticeship has done little to change his nature, and thus far, nothing of note has occurred.
