DON'T CRY OUT FOR GOD
we are all lambs to the slaughter now, don't worry it will be over
NAME russetkit russetpaw russetstorm
CLAN shadowclan
POSITION warrior
GENDER male
AGE twenty nine moons
APPEARANCE click. russetstorm obviously got his name from the rusted color of his fur, matching that of his sister, amberjaw. his eyes, however, are a striking green color, much unlike the rest of his family. he's a medium sized cat, not overbearing but no lightweight either. it seems that he has found the perfect balance between food and exercise, and his muscles are sinewy and easily detected under his long fur. he takes great pride in his fur and cleans it constantly to make sure it looks decent. his nose is a gentle, neutral pink color, not too striking and doesn't stand out too much. all in all, he's a fairly handsome cat, but nothing out of the ordinary.

HOLD ON THOUGH YOU'RE
alone i am there with you, that much at least i can promise, you know
LIKES cold weather, protecting his sister, hunting, being stealthy, his fur's sheen
DISLIKES being told what to do, being outmatched, losing, being badgered, most company
HOPES to protect his sister at all costs; to become a legendary warrior
FEARS being truly alone; thunderstorms
PERSONALITY while russetstorm is abrasive and cold at first, once a cat gets to know him, he's actually quite gentle, even charming to some. however, it's quite difficult to break through that rough outer shell of his. he's brooding and dark almost all the time, like a storm is ready to brew in his soul. that was how he got his suffix, storm. his quiet and thoughtful demeanor leads most to believe he's trying to plot the demise of his leader or something equally as dangerous, and while that's far from the truth, it makes most other cats stay away from him. being slightly antisocial only means that russetstorm is hardly ever bothered by the strange looks that he receives and the suspicious whispers that surround his name. any reason for strangers to stay away from him is fine with him.
however, even with his need to have a lack of company, deep down he fears being alone. he'll never be truly alone with his only other sibling, though, which makes him extremely overprotective and territorial over her. potential mates and friends will always have to get through to him before even being allowed around her. if they prove their worth, though, he'll certainly be friendly to them. this is how most will even come close to befriending russetstorm, through his sister and sister only.
at heart, russetstorm is quite cowardly, but not in the conventional way. rather than being afraid of sickness, death, and injury, russet mainly fears trivial things, such as thunderstorms or long shadows. he tries to play it off as if he isn't afraid of them, but rarely can he keep his composure during something like a loud thunderstorm for more than a few minutes before he's cowering. of course, that makes him all the more snippy and defensive when this happens, causing him to lash out at anyone who dares make fun of him or his fear.
russetstorm is deeply rooted in tradition, and he'd hate to see a pack of lowlife loners like the rescuers come in and change everything that the clans had worked so hard for so long to achieve. he finds anyone who isn't a clan cat to be barbaric and far lower than himself.

KNOW WHAT'S TO COME
do not accept this, though we're alone we must fight for each breath
HISTORY it is clear that, even today, russetstorm has been heavily affected, even molded by his mother. as kits, he and amberjaw had a difficult time dealing with such hostility from their own family, and russet could only look on in jealousy at the more loving, gentler families of shadowclan. he always struggled with wondering if he had done something wrong, but eventually he began to pour all of his concerns and questions into energy for guarding and protecting his sister. she was the only kindred he felt close to, and therefore she was indispensable. as soon as both of their parents died, this protection turned even more ferocious.
soon, however, as the two began to become apprentices, russetpaw was tainted in both his mind and soul by his mentor, diamondsoul. believing his sister had grown weak, russetpaw became just as critical as the mother he had once loathed. realizing this, russetpaw once again poured everything he had into reshaping and mending the bond he had broken, and soon they grew close once more. inside, russetpaw vowed that, with starclan looking on, he would never do anything to sever the bond he had with amberpaw again.
russetpaw finally became russetstorm, along with his sister becoming amberjaw. both grew into their new names quite well, and russetstorm constantly is trying to prove himself on hunts or patrol duties. nothing has changed between the two since, and russet continues to keep a sharp claw extended towards any cat that attempts to hurt his sister, save for the select few friends that he allows past his barriers.
