FOR I AM RAGGEDCLAWS of the great AspenClan 70 moons Tom Warrior How can I hide in the shadows of the unknown? WHEN MY PELT IS THE DARKEST BLACK and my eyes are the most radiant gold ScarsCountless scars over his chest and forelegs, and one over the entire left side of his face which parts the fur. His tail is covered with them, as is his hind legs, which are covered by his fur. Appearance Raggedclaws - a colossal ebony tom with fur darker, thicker and more deadly than a starless night. Countless unhealed scars cross over on all of his legs, slanting down toward his massive claws and thick paws. His menacing amber irises strike fear into anything that lock with them, because if you are brave enough to hold his blazing, battle-starving eyes, you are either foolishly brave or dead already. Most cats that see this ‘thing’ on patrol back down almost immediately. This beast is a tank – not only is he a colossal cat, he has powerful muscles to match and steps over other cats like they are merely territory. His Jet-coloured broad shoulders and thick tail are dangerous, and his paws can snap a cat’s neck in half with minimal effort. The long, angry-looking scar over the left side of his face reflects his personality like a glove. You do not want to mess with him. Why do you judge me for what I’ll become? JUST BECAUSE I’M BATTLE HUNGRY AND WILD Personality Although he's known to be a violent fighter, Raggedclaws's actions tend to be for the best. He has a very poor sense of direction, at times asking others for help. Raggedclaws lives for battle and enjoys a good fight more than anything. He even holds back in an effort to make any fight last longer. He also claims that injury and death are nothing but the price one pays for a good fight. Although he thrives for battle, Raggedclaws has shown to have emotions. Raggedclaws deeply gives meaning to his name. Following his fight with Blackfoot (who was an old friend of his, who left the Clans), Raggedclaws talks about the pain of not having a name, as he lived his early years without one. Despite his tendency to be brutal, Raggedclaws usually stops a fight if his opponent is too injured to fight back, claiming that he isn't interested in fighting "weaklings who can't fight anymore; nor is he obligated to deal a death blow to anyone who isn't capable of fighting any longer". However, he will unhesitatingly kill his opponent if they refuse to end their fight. On multiple occasions, Raggedclaws has shown to greatly respect those who can defeat him in a fight and to those who can push him to his limit. Ever since Blackfoot handed him his first known loss (though Blackfoot also considers their fight a loss for him), Raggedclaws has considered the latter a member of his Clan. He also expresses his willingness to engage him in a rematch every time they meet, only to be turned down as Blackfoot already considers themselves as friends. Nevertheless, Raggedclaws still challenges him in a duel, as evidenced when he aided Blackfoot in his fight against a badger (where he gave "his blessing," stating that in doing so would make Blackfoot stronger for "their anticipated fight"). Raggedclaws also strongly believes that fun comes before working. In every battle, he tries to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible. During his free time, Raggedclaws always takes his afternoon nap. He doesn't have a particularly favourite food, but he particularly hates squirrels. It seems that Raggedclaws sometimes contradicts his own logic in fighting. On the one hand, Raggedclaws wishes to increase his own personal power. On the other hand, he conceals his strength to enjoy a fight for as long as possible. Irrational to a certain extent, Raggedclaws is one of the most complex characters in the RolePlay, as he exhibits a wide range of traits: lethargic, bloodthirsty, rebellious, empathetic, and wise. Preferences He loves fighting. That is all he lives for - to fight and find someone as strong as he is. Secret Ambitions To find someone that can stand up to him, who has the potential to defeat him. Strengths/Weaknesses He is insanely powerful, knowing all about fighting that there is, but he can not hunt to save his life, nor does he abide by the Warrior Code. He is lawless and a brute but no cat dares to stand up and say it. He can not navigate anywhere without simple instructions, showing that he is only intelligent when it comes to fighting - if he can even get there to begin with. He usually shows up late and makes a big show of it in hopes that someone brave will challenge him. If not, he quickly loses interest and leaves. How am I punished for what my kin has done? EVEN IF MY PARENTS ARE MURDERED AND COLD Family All dead. Event that Lead to being a Warrior He stumbled into AspenClan after a one-on-one with a badger, still standing. No cat dared to turn him away with his attitude. History “Kenny” was a cat who was born into a city where the main law was "Kill or be killed". The area he lived in meant a constant fight for survival; nobody was spared – she-cats, kits, queens, young cats, nobody. His mother and father died, leaving him nameless and defenceless. As a six moon old kit, he was able to take on cats of Apprentice age due to his size, and by ten moons he had killed more cats than he had cared to count. By twelve moons, he was feared, even among adult cats, and they offered him prey in return for their safety, but it was an offering the nameless cat wasn’t interested in. He wanted to find Kodi, the strongest cat around, and fight him. However, there was a Clan-type pecking order, where you had to fight up the ranks to even find Kodi’s closest friends – which was exactly what the nameless tom did. The battle was witnessed by a lot of rogues, who heard about the upcoming battle, and decided that whichever cat won would be the best fighter in the city. Kodi was a medium-sized ginger tom with careful ginger eyes, whereas the nameless fighter was, at fifteen moons, a colossal black tom who towered over every cat that had shown up. It was said that he was bigger than a two-leg pet; and the scars that the fighter had attained by that time was frightening. When the battle started, Kodi tried a spinning frontal attack and aimed for the tom’s chest with a well-aimed blow. With that being Kodi’s strongest move at that time, cats thought that he would go down in one blow, but the black cat didn’t even move, stating that the move tickled. His green-gold eyes were calm, gazing down with an unimpressed look on his face, and reached up. Offering that he would let the tom get a free hit for the sake of it, a claw slashed down his face and created the scar he has there now. During the battle, the tom then blocked Kodi’s attack with a paw before smashing him across the jaws and sending him flying into a fence. The move killed the tom instantly and everybody bowed down to the nameless tom, awe-struck and afraid. The next few words he spoke, in a heavy voice, sparked the most terror in any cats that had heard them: “That was boring...” Turning to leave, he noticed that everybody else had fled, and he vanished, looking for more cats to fight on his quest for strength. He found a group of rogues, who had killed two cats for prey. Thinking that they would be a good match, he took them on and killed them all easily, feeling rather depressed that he still hadn’t found someone worth his time. That was when a kit approached him from the bark of a tree and, unafraid of the scene before her, wanted to play with the tom’s claws. Confused as to why, the nameless tom spoke to her, telling her that his claws were dangerous and she should run, but the kit didn’t pay any attention. When he asked her what her name was, she didn’t reply, and like him, she had no name. Feeling connected with this she-kit, the tom decided that he wasn’t going to live without a name any longer. He named himself Ken, and named her Horizon, after her fur, and the only cat he ever admired... And then found AspenClan. Sample RP { See second post } This is Raggedclaws - the above picture. He is a Maine Coon breed, which are massive cats.

[atrb=width,300,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][bg=291d0f] Jet mist drifted around the blizzard-stricken clearing in which the colossal ebony Warrior placed his thick paws. Around him, not even birds sang, not even the wind blew. Fire hungrily lapped at his body, burning him, singing his fur to embers, and he leapt up onto a rock to watch what was going on. Normally a cat would be running for the hills at the sight of fire, but not Raggedclaws. Absently, the tom stood, fearless, brave, and craving for battle. Golden irises scanned the fiery pit around him, and he snorted, turning around to walk off. Pain still tore through his skin, but it didn’t seem to bother him; as if he couldn’t feel it, or as if he were just unresponsive to the tormenting feeling there. As he turned, however, a grey face stared back at him. Green eyes locked with his furious golden ones, and a sneer appeared on the face of the cat. Blinking, as if he weren’t even surprised to see the newcomer, Raggedclaws didn’t even speak, but merely slammed him out of the way and sent him crashing down toward the rocks. “Now now, nameless tom, don’t you want to see your dear little Adopted Daughter again? What was her name now...?” Something within Raggedclaws was growing; a feeling that he’d not felt in a long time. One that felt different from when he had been shouted at by his Clanmates; this wasn’t mere annoyance or anger. It wasn’t fear, or joy, or sadness, or amusement. Darkening, his eyes sharpened into slits, and his lips curled back, revealing a murderous set of blood-lusting fangs. Still, the cat continued to taunt him, and the fire seemed to grow more intense, blazing higher and higher until it seemed to engulf the sky. Thrusting his face into Raggedclaws, he continued with the taunts, until suddenly... Raggedclaws let out a bestial roar, sending the tom scuttling back as a claw slashed murderously toward his face. Thunder rung in his ears as he collided with the rock, and Raggedclaws wasted no time in ramming the cat with his shoulder, then biting down into his throat and sending him spinning into the fire. Yowling with rage, the tom leapt toward the ebony tom, aiming a swipe at his throat, but his paw became tangled in his thick fur, and Raggedclaws knocked the cat to the ground, spraying up dust beneath him. “You are dead,” he snarled venomously, his lips peeled back as he lunged toward the tom. “You hear me? I’ll tear out your throat!” And the tom did just that, sending blood spraying across the land, and somehow it extinguished the fire to reveal the AspenClan camp. Gazing around, his golden irises blazed with pure rage – an emotion that was extremely volatile to Raggedclaws. Suddenly the tom woke up, yowling with white-hot fury, and lashed out, scoring his claws across a nearby den. Instantly it was destroyed, the structure leaning under it’s own weight before it crashed down onto itself in a pile of rubble and jagged debris. Towering over the fallen den stood Raggedclaws, his back arched menacingly, his fur spiking up on end that over doubled his size. Spitting with rage, his curved claws worked at the ground, and he heard the sound of paws around him, coming to see what had happened. The first two to arrive were Horizon and Crystal – his Adopted Daughter and a lion cub that he had taken under his paws, both standing in stunned silence a short distance away. If any cat approached the tom now, there’d be blood to pay. OoC; Word Count; 600 Tags; Raggedclaws, Crystal, Horizon, Rage, Nightmare. Post Synopsis; Raggedclaws is taunted in a dream, where fire claims the AspenClan camp, by an unnamed tom. After hearing enough, he finally snaps and murders the cat brutally, and wakes up, only to destroy the already weakened Medicine Cat's Den. Now he is standing over it, his fur bristling, appearing twice his normal size, enraged and extremely dangerous to those around him. Raggedclaws's is shown that when he is pushed too far, his emotions and actions become dangerously volatile. Doing Speaking Thinking "Your Character talking"
