[/i]Cat's Name: Cloudwing
Clan: ThunderClan
Age: 16 moons
Gender: Tom
Rank: Warrior
Description:
Personality:
Cloudwing has always been the calm one. He's never let his temper get the best of him, even when he wanted to claw some cat's ear off. In the face of danger, he can think with unclouded judgement. He isn't the type to burst into random song whenever he feels good about something, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to laugh or smile.
As a matter of fact, Cloudwing spendsmost of his time laughing and smiling. He's the type of cat that others can't help but love, because he brightens up every conversation by just being himself. He doesn't like it when others are upset, so he tries to make a fool of himself if it gets them to smile, even a little.
Unfortunately, his love of of life makes him an easy target for manipulation. Cloudwing likes to think the best of cats, and can never really detect when he's being lied to. The only times he knows when someone is lying is when it's one of his siblings, and that's only because he grew up with them and knows them better than any other cat.

History:
Petalstream was a ThunderClan she-cat unlike any other. She was pretty, smart, funny, and brave. All of the toms, even those with mates, admired her while all of the she-cats looked up to her. They wanted to be like her, to be as loved and respected as her. But what ThunderClan didn't know was that Petalstream had a secret.
When she announced that she was carrying kits, all of the toms were instantly jealous that this prize got snatched up. They wondered which tom got to her, and questioned one another. Just because a she-cat didn't have to reveal the father didn't mean the father wouldn't want to reveal himself. No one came forward.
It was a mystery to the who the father was, until one day Petalstream led a stranger into camp. It was a dark gray tom named Butch, and he wanted to join ThunderClan to be with his family. When everyone saw how close Petalstream was to Butch, to say cats were shocked was an understatement. At first, it seemed Butch wouldn't be allowed to join. He would only be allowed to stay if he could prove himself.
And prove himself Butch did. He fought off a badger single-pawed in the midst of a horrible storm. It was a feat that very few cats could brag about. Butch was granted membership of ThunderClan and was named Hawkstorm.
A few moons after Hawkstorm arrived at camp, three new kits were born. Snakekit was the eldest, and she had the same tortoise-shell look as Petalstream. She was spunky and fiery, and promised the same beauty that her mother held. Cloudkit was the middle kit and the only tom. He had the dark gray looks of his father. Solarkit was the youngest, and she didn't look like either of their parents with her bright fur.
Cloudkit and Snakekit were the more social ones. Solarkit was almost painfully shy, and clung to their father like he was her life. In some ways, saying that wouldn't be too far off. Cloudkit saw that Solarkit was Hawkstorm's favorite, but didn't really care that much. He's ashamed now to say that he never really cared much about his younger sister.
Life went on and soon, the three were made into apprentices. Snakepaw's mentor was named Glassfur, Cloudpaw's mentor was named Graytail, and Solarpaw's mentor was named Leafshard. Cloudpaw noted that Hawkstorm seemed more Solarpaw's mentor than Leafshard, but he couldn't really be bothered. His own mentor was a light gray tom. Graytail was stern but fair, and Cloudpaw advanced quickly because of him.
Over the next two moons, Cloudpaw witnessed a change in his baby sister. She was coming out of her shell. Solarpaw began to interact with the other apprentices more, and added more to conversations. No doubt this was the work of Hawkstorm, and Cloudpaw discovered that he was grateful to his father. He helped Solarpaw along by including her in games and training. All of that progress came to a screeching halt when ShadowClan attacked a border patrol.
Cloudpaw wasn't on the patrol. He didn't see it happen, didn't know it happened until they dragged a dark gray body into camp. Cloudpaw was distraught, but not nearly as much as Solarpaw. They were all excused from training for a while, but Cloudpaw and Snakepaw recovered from the loss quicker and were back to training within the moon. Solarpaw wasn't, and it caused Cloudpaw and Snakepaw to become warriors without her.
Warrior
Cloudwing was part of the battle patrol that tried to make the dog leave. He tried his best, he really did, but it just overpowered them all. When Solarpaw showed up and took the dog on alone, Cloudwing's heart stopped beating for a bit. He was terrified that his sister would pay for her bravery.
Imagine his shock when Solarpaw ended up killing the dog when a whole patrol failed to drive it away. Then imagine his pride when the shock faded away. That was his kin. Sure she collapsed soon after, and he had to carry her the entire way back to camp, but he was still proud!
She received her warrior name the same day she woke up, and Cloudwing watched the sorrow and happiness on her face when she was named Solarstorm. He knew that she was thinking of their father with her new name. Since then, she was named deputy for her bravery in the face of danger.
