Cat's name: Spider That Clings To Rock [Spider]
Gender: Dmab female [she/her]
Appearance: Dark-colored cat with thick, messy fur and copper eyes. Appears bulky (though it's mostly just the unruly pelt) and is fairly strong and surprisingly agile. image from this lovely generator.
Personality: [Attentive] [Balanced] [Firm] [Sincere] [Blasé]
(Motive/Belief: To protect her Tribemates at all costs, and do anything in her power to make the Tribe safer and better. She also wants to bring pride to her name and live up to the legacies of her ancestors, but this is a lesser motivation.)
Attentive ::
Spider tries to be aware of her surroundings at all times. She tries to spread her attention as much as possible, and as such may seem a bit distant during conversation, and perhaps slow to reply: while she finds it important to listen to her Tribemates, she cannot focus completely on them because she feels that she must be paying attention to everything else around her as well. She's known to be very alert even when tired, and functions just fine on less sleep than many of her Tribemates.
Balanced ::
Her skillset is rather well-rounded, though she does tend to be a bit more skilled in areas that pertain to her duties as a Ground-Guard. She doesn't particularly excel at much, as she prefers to be average in all areas rather than skilled in some but weak in others. She's also quite balanced physically, able to climb steep surfaces with ease, as her name suggests. She is naturally talented in this way, and thus doesn't practice it much, only enough to keep her skill sharp: in theory she could progress greatly and become an excellent climber, but to do this she would have to focus particularly on this skill and leave the others behind, which she'd much rather not do. Besides, many of her Tribemates aren't too shabby in this area, so it's not as though the Tribe is in desperate need of good climbers.
Firm ::
Though she can put up with a bit of playing around, Spider generally isn't one to participate in or approve of tomfoolery, and she has no trouble voicing this opinion. She understands the enthusiasm of kits but feels that they shouldn't take it too far, and that when they are asked to stop and focus they need to stop and focus. She'd like to train Initiates, perhaps, but many of them are too silly for her tastes, and she'd work best with a cat who was calm, devoted, and listened to instructions. She stands strong in the face of danger, never running away unless absolutely necessary. She keeps her cool throughout confrontations, both those with enemy creatures and her own Tribemates: in battle her moves rarely become sloppy and frenzied in desperation, and when speaking to others she almost never raises her voice in true anger.
Sincere ::
Spider has never been the sort to keep her opinions locked up inside her. She doesn't see any point in blurting them out needlessly, but if asked, she has no qualms about being fully truthful. She understands that at times she must keep her thoughts to herself if they could be harmful to others, but she won't lie about them either, preferring to just stay quiet in these situations. She completes every task assigned to her to the best of her abilities, never slacking off. She will generally be honest if she doesn't understand or disagrees with something.
Blasé ::
Even in life-threatening situations, Spider tends to remain remarkably nonchalant, especially if she's had a similar experience before. She doesn't fear death or pain, or if she does, she doesn't show it. This makes her good at encouraging others, as confidence inspires confidence. She tries not to feel disdainful towards those who are fearful, because while she doesn't understand their feelings that doesn't make those feelings any less real. She doesn't always succeed at this, though, and sometimes finds herself mentally looking down on Clanmates who get scared easily.
Rank?: Ground-Guard
Affiliates?: Tribe of Curled Ferns
History: Spider was born to Dipper Whose Feathers Sheds Water and Bat That Glides From Branches, and she has one currently living sibling, Magpie That Searches The Trees. Another sibling, Sedge, passed away before she was Initiated. Spider's Initiation involved racing a fairly swift cat up a mountainside; there was no way she could pull ahead and overtake the other by using the established paths, and so she chose to scale steep rock faces rather than go around them to make her journey quicker. She didn't win, but came close to it, and it was determined that the deed was worthy enough to earn her the latter part of her name.
