Gene String: XoY ll bb dd Aa'Mcmc SpSp CCs Wsw
Appearance:
Floesnap is a young tom with a stocky build underneath his sleek, soft fur. The tufts are particularly longer around his paws and around his face. Compared to other cats, he is slightly larger than average. His mostly-lilac pelt, to his disadvantage, contrasts with the deep green environment of his home. His throat, paws, and underside are a lighter cream color. Dark blotches run down his back as well as a darker base coat. All across his body, but concentrated on his back half, are spatterings of light cream spots. His ears are tipped with the same color as his blotches. His paw pads and nose are a soft pink. Bright blue eyes peek out from underneath his long fur. When he was younger, his pelt was well-groomed and lay smoothly against his body, but as he's growing older, he takes on a more rugged appearance.
Personality
Positive Traits: • Adaptable • Independent • Diligent | Negative Traits: • Disdainful • Impatient • Paranoid |
Personality:
Floesnap is a stoic, standoffish cat. He thinks with his head and tries to make sensible, sound decisions that benefit as many as possible, while also not risking everything for one. The Journey impacted him particularly hard--he prefers to keep everyone an arm away and he's wary of making new connections. It's much lonelier this way, but it's much safer.
Floesnap has learned to stand for himself, because in his mind, no one else will. He strides with purpose in his step and forces himself to hold his head up high, even on days when he wants nothing more than to curl in his nest and hide. He finds it hard to relax, feeling as if he has to constantly be on guard. This results in a short temper; he has disdain for cats asking useless questions and talking back. He works surprisingly well in groups - so long as he gets a say in how things are run or he's allowed to work independently.
For those who have managed to befriend this cynical young tom, they'll find that he's actually a bit clueless, at least in terms of emotions. His analytical nature starts to look a lot like overthinking and jumping to conclusions. He prefers to listen to other cats tell interesting stories and he does appreciate the friends he already has. And, truth be told, he likes the idea of romance, even if he doesn't know what it looks like.

Character Background
History:
Floekit was one of three kits born to PeakClan parents: a tom named Skyflicker and a molly named Dovedrop. He was an inquisitive little thing, always asking questions about this and that. His parents simply dismissed him with empty, one-word answers. Though they didn't mean any harm in doing so, Floekit assumed they weren't interested in what he was. They grew up through a rough leaf-bare, narrowly surviving the avalanche that destroyed PeakClan’s camp, but the family powered through. Floekit caught a bout of whitecough, leaving him confined to the medicine cat den, which contributed to his reserved personality. Fortunately, he recovered quickly enough without any complications, and he was named an apprentice along with his siblings.
Floepaw was assigned to a mentor named Saltfur who was much like his parents in a way. He was her first apprentice and she herself had not been a warrior for long. She was impatient and haughty; in their short time together, they often argued and little progress was made in Floepaw's training. A moon later, as Twolegs began invading the territories, Saltfur went missing. Although Floepaw mourned her with the rest of the clan, he could not bring himself to actually miss her.
Floepaw continued his training even during the Journey with a new mentor named Cloudripple; he struggled greatly, having obtained a temper and a lack of confidence from his previous mentor. Cloudripple was an older warrior and had trained difficult apprentices before. With patience, Floepaw eventually warmed up to him, made incredible strides in his training, and was named a warrior by Pebblestar.
His parents and his brother followed Aspenbreeze - now Aspenstar - to Gorseclan, but Floesnap settled in Mossclan with Cloudripple and his sister, Partridgewing. Now, he wishes to serve his clanmates to the best of his abilities in the wake of the battle with the rogues.
