Name: Winterfire.

GenderAge: Thirty-one moons

Clan:
MoonClan.

Rank:
Warrior

Description:
Winterfire is a handsome creamy white Bengal, built muscular, solid, and a little on the shorter side. His pelt has a soft milky undercoat, tinged at the hair tips with beige; brown spots softly caress his fur, sweeping down from his head, over his sides, and joining to make stripes on his tail. His nose is smudged a reddish brown tone, accenting soft jade eyes. Winterfire’s fur has a satin-like tone to it, a quality that, to his annoyance, draws kits to it like squirrels to coffee beans. While the tom is not quite as fast or agile as other cats, he is definitely strong. His muscles give him the power he needs for aggressive tackles and a superior pushing ability. He may not be able to zigzag around his enemies, but he can hit them like a ton of rocks; hard, fast, and unforgiving. Winterfire combines calculating intelligence with his brute strength, casting aside the theory that he is nothing but brawn. This strength also gives the tom great endurance, making him able for long, arduous journeys.

Personality:
Winterfire is a stern cat, never laughing and rarely showing any of those brighter emotions. He prefers to look either devoid or angry- both are intimidating, and Winterfire is definitely an intimidating cat. He holds to the warrior code with strict authority, and will not hesitate to punish a cat for wrong doing. He will not, however, step over his boundaries as a Warrior, and when he does he is the first to apologize. Winterfire is not ambitious, except when he’s helping his whole Clan, and he would die to protect Firestar. The tom can be kind and warm-hearted maybe even amused on rare occasions athough it’s impossible to determine what occasion would bring that on. Usually he is quiet, yet sarcastic, stern yet fair, quick-tempered yet laid-back, and very witty and intelligent. He is a good hunter and fighter nd he does what he must to help his beloved Clan out.


History:
Winterfire was born as Winterkit into MoonClan. He was the only cream Bengal among his siblings- with two gold Bengal sisters and a silver Bengal brother- and neither spoiled nor shunned. He grew up playing with mainly his siblings, for his serious demeanor scared the other kits. As time wore on, Winterkit, named Winterpaw, began to grow closer to his brother- his sisters made friends with many she-cat apprentices, she-cats whom all wanted to be noticed by Winterpaw. It was awkward and weird. Winterpaw was far more interested in hunting and fighting than he was she-cats, although there was one that caught his eye. Her name was Brindlepaw.
Brindlepaw was a loner apprentice, having no friends and seeming not to care. Her coat was a marbled pattern of flaming red and sunlit gold- her pelt would light up and dance in the sun. At first Winterpaw watched her in mere interest. As he began to complete his training, though, his interest turned to intrigue, then finally to admiration. Brindlepaw didn’t notice, or care. Winterpaw was very good at seeming like he could care less, too.
On the day that Winterpaw, his siblings, and the other apprentices were to receive their names, Brindlepaw was the only one to miss the ceremony. Slightly concerned –but not surprised, really- Winterfire joined one of the patrols to search for her.
Her body was found at the very edge of MoonClan territory, torn apart by a fox’s teeth. In her claws were tufts of red fur, indicating that she had fought back. Winterfire shoved his feelings down into his chest and locked them up, showing nothing but saddened empathy at her death. Inside he was a different story.
As the handsome tom grew he trained vigorously, hunting and practicing battle moves to take his mind off of Brindlepaw. When physical training stopped pushing away the she-cat, he turned to solving any puzzle he could, whether it was important or not. In the end Winterfire became a muscled, skilled warrior, with a sharp mind and claws and little emotion, it seemed. His temper was quick, but so were his apologies.
