Cat's Name: Shardstar
Gender: Tom
Clan: WaterClan
Rank: Leader
Age: 24 moons
Description: Shardstar is a gray tabby tom. He has moss green eyes. The tip of his tail is pitch black. His ears are slightly lopsided and unsymmetrycal. He has a long white stripe on his underbelly with a large black spot in the middle. One of his ears is torn and scarred from a previous battle.
Personality: Shardstar is even-tempered and tries to give everyone a fair chance. But if you irritate him, then you had better run for your life! Even if you're one of his Clanmates, Shardstar can rip you down the stomach in a heartbeat and leave you to bleed. Fortunately, he hasn't had to do that to any of his Clanmates. Not yet, at least. Shardstar is partial to sunny days, but he enjoys rain a little bit, unless there's wind with the rain. Then he'll attempt to stay inside his den until the rain stops. Shardstar is ambitious, but not bloodthirsty, and he is very wise, even in his young age.
History: When Shardstar was a kit, he and his family were kidnapped the day before Shardkit was supposed to be named an apprentice. They were taken to an underground prison called PineClan, lead by an evil tom who called himself Pinestar, though he appeared to be no older than ten moons. Shardkit was given the name Shard and was forced to work as a hunter for the next three moons of his life. One night, his father attempted an escape, and he was brutally slain. After that, Shard was assigned to the Junior Mothers station, where he had to mate forcefully with she-cat, whether they wanted to or not. Then, Shard was assigned to a she-cat named Crushedpaw, and together they escaped. Crushedpaw died on the journey back. She had left Shard near WaterClan's border and veered off the path in the direction of where she said she lived, and then a PineClan patrol jumped out of the bushes and murdered her. Shard made it into WaterClan's camp just in time. When Shard's sister, Swallowfeather, saw him, she recognized him immediately. Shard was given the name Shardclaw right away. Shardclaw then told his Clanmates about the danger that PineClan posed, and how he planned to free all the cats that had been captured. So that night, Swallowfeather lead a patrol with Shardclaw back to PineClan and freed as many cats as they could. Swallowfeather was killed in the process, but Shardclaw never forgot her. After Shardclaw returned from the journey, he was made the deputy of WaterClan. After six moons, the leader died, and Shardclaw became Shardstar.
Other: None ATM.
Code word: You do not need the codeword for now. You will later, but for now there isn't one.
IC/Sample post: Shardclaw thrust himself into an instinctive hunting crouch as he scented the air. Mouse, he thought. The bushes before him rustled slightly as a tiny black head poked out from underneath. Shardclaw froze, not daring to move, should he scare the mouse away. The mouse went back into the bush, and Shardclaw continued to pull himself steadily forward. At last, he was within reach of the mouse. He wiggled his rear as he prepared to pounce. Shardclaw let out a hiss as he leapt into the air, giving the mouse time to run. It did. Shardclaw caught up to it and fastened his jaws around the creature's neck, snapping it quickly. A sudden roar made Shardclaw freeze. What was that? Then, it hit him, and he was on the ground, pinned under the superior creature's weight.
