Tempestpaw is a cocky, sarcastic charcoal smoke tabby. Due to his father's pressure and pushing, he was lead to believe that he needs to be the best, and is oftentimes trying to impress others. He's apprenticed to HHHHHHHNGfffff in StormClan.

Description
Though young, Tempestpaw is just a bit bigger than the average apprentice, with his semi-long fur accentuating his size for the most part (though concealing his muscle). His fur curls in certain places that are typical to feather, like behind his ears, on the back of his legs, and the bottom of his tail. In tune with the shadowy hiding places of StormClan, his pelt is dim with a smoky base and slightly darker classical tabby stripes, as well as a misty gray underbelly. His eyes are blue and mischievous. His left ear is nicked because of an argument that got out of hand, and behind it, two peregrine falcon feathers are tucked. The other ear is pierced with a thin vole bone.

Proportions: Larger than average, well-muscled

Blemishes: A small nick in his ear

Voice: Slightly deep, rumbling and rough at moments

Romantic
Though he's had a few very slight crushes, nothing important has happened in his love life yet.

Kithood

 * Tempestkit is born to senior warrior Thundercry and healer-to-warrior Puddlerose with his brother, Hailkit. Hailkit dies shortly after being brought into the world because of difficulties without having even seen a storm.
 * For his kit ceremony, when the clan sits on a hill with the kit and wait for a sign from the sky, a thunderstorm begins. His father becomes convinced that he's destined to be a war hero and starts subtly pampering him to be great.
 * Tempestkit plays with the other kits often and learns that he loves to win. He gets competitive over the smallest things and Thundercry accidentally encourages this in hopes that he'll get tougher.
 * In his 6th moon, he's rougher than ever and excited to become an apprentice. After his ceremony, he catches a vole and pierces his own ear with one of the bones, a rash decision that earned him a lot of backlash from legitimately responsible adults. He regrets nothing (even though his mother scolds him because of risk for infection). Thundercry comments that it makes him look more like a warrior, so he keeps it because of the praise.

Adolescence

 * Tempestpaw trains hard and enjoys teasing Falconpaw, another apprentice. He oftentimes ignores his mentor and does whatever he thinks is best in attempts to impress others or make someone proud.
 * Thundercry volunteers to go on a patrol exploring the forest beyond StormClan territory. This upsets Tempestpaw, but he doesn't let it show, and his father gives him two feathers of a peregrine falcon "in case [he] doesn't come back". He tucks them behind his ear in respect and hope that he'll return safely.
 * Tempestpaw does more things his way to try and fulfill his father's expectations as well as make others proud. This does more harm than good, and he often gets into trouble (plus arguments with Falconpaw). His emotions go out of check and spiral into ambition.
 * His father doesn't return. The feathers are still behind his ear.
