The [Outcast] of the group

[Dansen[Mouse]]

Raku

Rakugosha which means Outcast in Japanese.

Tom
50 moons
Rogue

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Raku's body is extremely thin, yet he never seems to go hungry. This tom has a lithe body that doesn't require much nourishment to survive, and because of that he almost always has enough to eat. His build hardly has much bulk to it, and what bulk it does have is pure muscle alone. He can be surprisingly strong for his size, but in truth its because of his fighting strategy. With his long, lean legs he stays just out of reach of his opponent, then attacks when they make a false move or mistake.

Raku's fur is a deep, chocolaty brown that helps him blend into his surroundings. He is often found covered in mud for it is one way for him to disgust his scent from so many others, especially those that he might chose to assassinate. Unlike most rogues and loners, this tom keeps his pelt clean enough for some to mistake him for a Clan cat, or stupid kittypet. Anything that can help him get the job done faster.

The last part about this tom is his eyes. They are a deep yellow, and to tell you the truth they look like yellow jelly beans with a black dot on them. Oh, I almost forgot about his ivory claws that he also keeps clean. Yeah know, for a rogue, he's awful neat.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

You could almost think that he is bipolar. At one moment he could be joyful to see you while the next he might start threatening to cut open your throat and feed you to the rats. Raku in truth does this kind of thing on purpose. He love to find out information on other cats and how he starts out is making you think that he is your friend, all soft and cuddly, then decides if you really are worth talking too. If you hold good information he'll let you live and be on your merry way. But if you don't... well, lets just hope it on one of his good days then he'll let you live. If its a bad day or he's just down right bored he might go ahead and slit your throat.

What he is really like... well he really hardly shows his true form, but if you stick around him long enough you will find that he is truly an impatient tom. His temper, on a bad day, is extremely short and deadly. He claws he prey to bits before actually eating just so he can watch the blood flow from the lifeless body. Watching him eat might cause your stomach to do flips, because he can be pretty messy. This tom can be pretty messed up, so I suggest you just watch your back and stay as far from him as possible.

Parents

[/u]

Raku's parents were both rogues. His mother, Diamond, led a pretty normal life as a kittypet both she left her twolegs for the wild. She hated the place and all the odd smells. She spoke often of going to some place called the vet were some twoleg would stick her with long, sharp, silver colored things that hurt while her twolegs would just stand by and watch. She got tired of the sticking and left them. She found that the wild was much to her liking.

Raku's father, on the other hand, was always a rogue named Coal. No one in his family line has ever been a kittypet, or so he says anyway. But when he fell in love with Diamond he really didn't mind her heritage. She was a gorgeous cat and never needed anyone to look after her. She didn't even act anything like a kittypet would. If you ask me it seemed she was always a rogue. Except for the fact that she always fussed about keeping clean and she always made sure that Coal kept clean. She also refused to eat crowfood unless she had no other choice.

Life[/u]

Raku was born to the two rogues, but they weren't always loving parents. From the moment the tom could walk his father trained him how to survive and trained him hard. Raku would also have many scars from his fathers cuffing save for the fact that Diamond made sure Coal never clawed their son. She didn't mind when Coal beat Raku for a simple mistake, but for some reason she hated the scent of blood, thus she didn't want to see her son bleeding because of her mate.

Raku was always curious when he was younger and begged his parents for stories. His mother never had anything good because she was a former kittypet, so he always turned to his father for the stories. But Coal would only tell him a story if his son trained really hard earlier in the day or Raku found that he could also bribe his father with a plump rabbit. His fathers stories were always about his earlier life when he lived by a group of cats called the Clans. He spoke of the Clans with venom in his voice and told his son that they were dangerous, believing in dead cats and such nonsense. He said that they were no better then a bunch of rogues.

Finally the time came when Raku was around ten moons old and his father told him that it was time Raku left them. He was old enough to care for himself and there was nothing left for him there, so he left. He wanted to know more about the Clans and what made them so speacial from other rogues and loners. But when he found them he was immediately attacked and injured. So he fled.

One day he returned again and ran into a warrior named Windystorm. The tom was being attacked by another cat of his own Clan, one that looked much more powerful then Windystorm. The other tom[that Raku found out later was named Razorteeth] looked ready to kill Windystorm when Raku suddenly pounced the warrior. With Windystorm's help the two killed Razorteeth. Windystorm looked almost embarrassed to say it but he thanked Raku for his help and told him to leave before another one of his Clan mates appeared. Raku made Windystorm promise that they would meet again to talk, and Windystorm, who seemed to be in a hurry, agreed.

At first it was just a couple of meetings where Windystorm would tell Raku all about the Clans, then they started talking more about ruling the Clans. Soon the toms became partners in crime, Raku always being the one to take the blame for most of the kills, but then again he really didn't care. He lived outside of the Clans where no one could touch him. The stupid Clan cats never crossed their own borders and Raku learned how to easily how to avoid them. But how soon before his luck would run out?
