Personality
Overview:A clan is strong by its bonds. Cats will live and die by their connections to others but if by a horrible twist of fate if you were unable to make those bonds you’d be weaker for it. Thats Gravehound in a nutshell, mute from a very young age he struggled to form meaningful connections to others and so while he over time has grown strong that lack has made him lesser. This has resulted in a worried timid and longing cat who lurks on the edges of his clan wishing he could be like them and be heard in a manner he rarely is. Clingy to those he actually gets close to and a tad pushy to try and make friends he can be seen as rather spineless sometimes due to his tendency to prefer no conflict. Still beneath this problematic exterior there is a soft kind and loyal tom who is a much deeper thinker than most would think who just needs reassurance that though he is silent he will not be forgotten by it.
Traits: Clingy, soft, worrisome, compassionate, dedicated, longing.
Quirks:
Very physically affectionate. A cuddler a groomer even sitting he will intentionally sit just enough to touch.
Once he’s started something there is no stopping him until he’s done.
Used to struggle with depression and anxiety.
Creates minor upsets fairly regularly but it’s always been small thus far.
Very dedicated to star clan if emotionally conflicted
Favourite prey are songbirds as he was told as a kit he could consume their song to gain his own..… Now it's just habit.
Has developed his own manner of sign language and tries his best to teach his clan.
Surprisingly skilled warrior and an even better tracker.
For all his anxiety he's surprisingly good at dealing with it and helping others with theirs
Loves kits, who rarely care about his muteness, and has to activly restrain himself from doing 'suprise adoptions'. He only does so because he doesnt think he can be a single parent well enough.
SOFT BOY! Doesnt know how to deal with affection
Rendered mute from a blow to the head at a very young age that knocked him unconscious for a long period of time Gravehound is incapable of making noise. There is no scar or other lasting damage but he will never recover his voice. He has no memory of the event.
