☆☆☆
Appearance:
Barrelmoon is a middle-aged tom cat with a barrel-like build. He’s chubby but still strong. His fur is mostly short besides longer patches on his chest and tail. He has kind amber eyes and a smile to match. In terms of height, he’s a bit smaller than average. His fur is thick enough for kittens to huddle under his belly fur for warmth during winter. Due to his age the hair tuft on his head droops at the tips, his muzzle fur is scruffier and leaning on the silvery side. His whiskers have a slight crinkle in them, which seems to come from his mother’s side.
Personality
Positive Traits: • Caring • Friendly • Patient | Negative Traits: • Sometimes too trusting • Tendency to have “rose colored lenses” • Saying no to kittens |
Personality:
Barrelmoon has lived long enough to know that life isn’t worth stressing much over, he’d rather spend his life taking care of loved ones and helping people out. Basically trying to spread joy and love to everyone. He likes to lounge in the sun in his free time or teach the kittens and apprentices. He’s just your typical single dad type. However he does trust a little too easily. It has bitten him in the tail more than once, because he tries to see the best in others. He’s been heartbroken more than once as well because of this, whether due to friends or romantic partners. When he thinks no one else is looking, his eyes get a sad tint over them and his smile droops just a little at the corners. When asked what he wants to do with his life, he simply smiles and shrugs. He’ll answer honestly that he wants a family but if it’s not planned for him, then he’s fine helping raise the clan’s kittens and teaching the younger cats. If asked whether he misses his old home or not, he’ll say “yes, but I wouldn’t trade the clan for the farm.” Barrelmoon has grown quite attached to the cats there and hopes he’ll be able to serve for as long as he can.

Character Background
History:
Barrel was originally born on a small farm to a former kittypet turned barn cat named Cleo alongside a few brothers and a sister. His grandmother, Cookie, was a kittypet that lived in a small home near the farm. Cookie would make the short trek to watch the kittens while Cleo would go off for free time. However Cleo didn’t seem to enjoy motherhood and as the kittens got older, they would see her less and less until one day she just wasn’t there. Cookie was clearly concerned and worried, but did her best to console her young grand-kittens. Barrel and his siblings would try to keep the nest area clean in hopes that Cleo would return, but she never did. Slowly the brothers would feel the pull to leave and one by one, they separated until eventually it was just Barrel and his sister. His sister, named Darcy, was pretty smitten with the farmer’s family and settled on living there. Barrel however wasn’t sure what to do. He considered staying, but could feel the pull to travel in his bones.
When he reached 20 moons old, Cookie passed away to join the spirits. It hit both Barrel and Darcy hard and they consoled each other for a good while. Until finally Barrel said goodbye to his sister and headed on his own personal journey. It was a sorrowful goodbye, but they both accepted the change. After some traveling Barrel reached the clans and received the name Barrelmoon, seamlessly finding his place amongst the clan.

☆☆☆
Other:
Barrelmoon was named Barrel because Cleo was looking around at random objects.
His siblings are up for grabs! If anyone needs a character, they’re basically a name without a story and personality.
Darcy is the only one that is similar to Barrelmoon though, only because they are both calm and patient.
