ONTHE OUTSIDE
SILVER► BRIEF,
Named for the light grey patches on his head, tail, and back.
A white and grey tom with muted green eyes.
► APPEARANCE,
Silverpaw isn't quite built like you'd expect a Riverclanner to be. He has long limbs and a slim tail, his lanky stature making him look out of place in the water. He has the kind of clumsy movement one expects from a cat his age, having grown quite a bit recently and still not quite used to his larger limbs. His eyes are pale green and light up like fireflies when he's given the chance to talk about something he cares about.

► TRAITS,
- Insecure, Quick Tempered, Prideful
+ Outgoing, Adaptive.
► PERSONALITY,
While most apprentice's take to training like fish to water, there are cases where the young cat will struggle to succeed in their training. Usually, in these cases, the apprentice will turn to their family or mentor for assurance. However, in Silverpaw's case, he has little to turn to, after his mentor died in the Alliance attack, and his absentee father focuses all his attention on his half-sibling.
As a result, he's an extremely insecure cat. With no one to reassure him that he'll improve with time, he's begun to believe that he'll end up useless to his clan.
Despite his fears, his pride keeps him from asking outright for help or reassurance. He also has a tenancy to pretend he understands a lesson, so that his mentor, and others present, will not think less of him for his difficulty in grasping concepts.
If someone were to call him out on this, he'd likely react with anger. He'd feel judged for his lack of talent, and lash out. He's never really had someone tell him that it was okay to take longer to learn, or anyone to point out things he's good at. As a result, any time someone brings up the subject, he won't react positively.
Normal conversation is something he is good at, though he has a tenancy to run his mouth a bit too much. He'll never run out of topics, and enthusiastically join in with anyone willing to listen to him speak.
This helped him out in his move to Windclan, though he wasn't pleased at leaving his home, it provided him with more cats to meet. Silverpaw is a rather adaptive cat, and changing situations have been something he's grown up with, so they don't throw him off very much anymore.

AHISTORY
Silverkit's father was a proud Riverclan tom by the name of Hailstone, and a pretty tabby she-cat by the name of Dovewhisker. His father was distant in his childhood. The lithe tom knew no different, and was taken completely by surprise when, in the same moon he was made an apprentice, his father returned to the camp with a she-cat.
Her name was Ruth, and she was expecting his father's kits.
He argued for her admittance to the clan, telling their leader of how she was struggling on her own. Used to the soft life of a kittypet, the molly was unused to hunting for herself. The tensions from the fall of Thunderclan were high, leaving cats wary of those not their own, and the she-cat was turned away.
His father returned to the camp in a rage not long after, bearing a little tan kitten and a little bell collar, Ruth, malnourished from her hunting failures, had not survived the kitting.
He looked to his father for assurance when he began training, not only being a drypaw, but a rather miserable hunter as well. When his father's attention refused to waver from his half-sibling, he turned to his newly appointed mentor instead.
And then the Alliance attacked, and his mentor was killed. And he left the only home he'd ever known for the Windclan camp. In his rage and confusion the little tom acted out, grinding on tempers already made short by the looming threat of the Alliance.
