FULL DESCRIPTION!

Blackpaw is a huge tom, towering over most of his fellow apprentices. He was a large kit and he will be large warrior. His paws are big, his shoulders are broad, and his legs thick to support his large frame. He shows promise as a fighter and his size will give him an edge. Hunting on the other paw will never be his strong suit. He can easily be heard
crashing clumsily through the underbrush with his large paws. Blackpaw is a rather slow runner, usually tagging behind his smaller and swifter clan mates whenever out and about.

His coat is almost entirely black with the smallest patch of white located just under his chin. His fur is short and very soft. He has two yellow eyes that bear small
flecks of green around the pupil. 

PERSONALITY!

Blackpaw is a quiet cat. He is the sort that likes to watch rather than to get directly involved. He isn't unfriendly or unsociable by any means, he just is a silent cat. Some cats look his silent nature and label it as introverted or detached. Neither of these are entirely correct. Blackpaw just prefers to listen. He will speak if spoken to or if he finds it important. His large size and his silence give Blackpaw an air of mystery, although in reality he is not all that complicated. Past the silence, he is a very cheerful and easy going tom.   

With his preference to observation, Blackpaw is picking up a talent for reading expressions. He's no where near an expert, but he's getting better at picking up lies by watching how a cat moves their mouth or by a shift of their eyes. There is a bundle of passion and determination in him. Once he has set his sights onto something all of his energy is pooled into making the goal or idea possible. He will not admit defeat until all possible options have been exhausted.

He's young, but he is loyal to his clan and friends. Shadowclan is the only home he has ever known and unless something should happen, that loyalty will not change.

HISTORY!

Blackcloud -- mother (deceased)
Unnamed Shadowclan warrior -- father
Cloudkit -- brother (deceased)
Adderheart -- foster mother

Blackcloud went into labor one early afternoon. It was an early labor and the two kits she brought into the world were small and very sickly. Blackcloud suffered complications and passed days after giving birth. One of queens, an older she-cat named Adderheart took charge of the young kits. She named them in honor of their mother, dubbing one tom Blackkit and the other Cloudkit. Cloudkit did not survive his second week before following his mother to Starclan. Blackkit slowly, but steadily grew stronger and healthier. By his second moon it was hard to tell that the big kit had ever been sick. The rest of his kithood remained uneventful. Adderheart watched over him until it was time for him to become an apprentice.

Upon reaching his sixth moon, Blackkit was called forward by the leader to be given his apprentice name. This is excited Blackkit. He was also thrilled to move out of the nursery. It had become a crowded place over the last few moons and Adderheart's own kits were a noisy bunch. Blackkit became Blackpaw and although just an apprentice, he wears his new name proudly.

RP EXAMPLE!

(From a thread on Fcotf)
Of all the places in the forest, Sunningrocks without question was ranked at the top of his list. There were few things better than sun warmed rocks and an undisturbed nap. Too often his brother,
with good intentions, woke him up and tried to drag him off to participate in this or that. It was all apart of Thrushpaw's plan to make his brother come out of his shell, but this plan in Shadowpaw's
opinion had become a constant annoyance in his life. He was going to enjoy this nap.

Finding his current position undesirable, Shadowpaw shifted in order to find a more comfortable position when a familiar scent caught his attention. He didn't know each clan member by heart, but he could easily recognize a fellow apprentice. Frozenpaw. Hiseyes opened slightly, catching the other apprentice trying to slink by unnoticed. This was just his luck. Shadowpaw resisted the urge to say
something. Frozenpaw was obviously trying to leave and maybe if Shadowpaw could get him out of here without initiating a conversation then he could return to napping.

"Shadowpaw. Frozenpaw. A bit early to be out here, isn't it." All hopes of this plan working instantly vanished at the sound of that voice. That was a voice that one could never forget. It sounded just as intimidating and icy as its owner appeared. Frozenpaw he could have dealt with, but Hailstorm's arrival sent everything in a very different direction. Foxdung take it all, he thought. Shadowpaw searched for a response and came up short. He was in trouble. Shadowpaw sighed, glancing around for Riverclan's leader. Was ditching one dawn patrol successfully to much to ask for?
