Personality
Positive = [Romantic] [Charismatic] [Dreamy] [Gallant]

Romantic
Along with enjoying cozying up to other attractive kitties, he loves dreaming of the future.  The cats of the forest have lived through many hardships in his lifetime, but he’ll never stop envisioning that someday they will achieve an easy and happy life, free of Clan boundaries.  Basically he’s a freaking hippie.  He just wants us all to get along ok

Charismatic
He makes friends quite easily, and always seems to attract others to him.  He’s friendly, polite, and entertaining, with an often self-deprecating sense of humor.  Despite his talents as a warrior and his high rank, he’s never intimidating.  At times this trait makes him quiet flirtatious with both genders.

Dreamy
He can often seem dazed or absentminded.  He’s constantly thinking of ways to make his life or clan life in general better.  Sometimes these fantasies distract him from actually acting to make his dreams come true.

Gallant
He is respectful to a fault toward she-cats, treating them as greater being who should be protected and celebrated.  This is nice when he’s dealing with queens or elders, but it can get pretty annoying if he’s treating a fellow warrior like a princess.  He’s earned quite a few smacks over the ears for his naivety, idolizing behavior, but he still acts ignorant and thinks of his chivalry as a positive trait.

Neutral = [Relaxed] [Simple]

Relaxed
Napping is one of his favorite pastimes, and there’s not much you could say or do to make him lose his temper.  This trait makes him seem passive or lazy a lot of the time.

Simple
He’s a simple tom of simple beliefs.  He doesn’t put too much thought into the complexities of other cats, thinking of the world in very black-and-white terms.  He believes stereotypically good things to be purely bad, and stereotypically evil things to be purely evil.

Negative = [Ambitious] [Manipulative] [Resentful]

Ambitious
He’s always wanted to become leader and enact his beliefs on the rest of his clanmates.  While most of his ideology is peaceful, he’s close-minded in his own way—for example, he would never listen to another cat’s reasoning for disliking a certain clan, and would stubbornly insist that their beliefs are false.  Because of this, he’d probably make a pretty bad leader wrapped in a friendly, hopeful package, but he will never see it that way.

Manipulative
This trait is almost subconscious, but he uses it in pretty much every facet of his life.  He knows just how to act to get what he wants.  His polite, submissive exterior serves in his methods of gaining power over other cats.  He’s realized that you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar.  Again, this trait is extremely subtle—it would most likely pass under the noses of all but the most cynical cats.  Even he isn’t fully aware of it.

Resentful
Surprisingly, Goldensmoke is a cat who can hold a grudge, especially if it’s something where another cat has let him down for “selfish reasons,” like, for example, if another cat was to break up with him.  He has trouble seeing fault in himself, so he often comes to the conclusion that whatever other cat is involved in a conflict is in the wrong.

History
Kit
Goldenkit was born to the queen Sunsmoke, along with a brother and sister, Blackkit and Honeykit.  Their father, Duskfire, was a distant but protective father, who would watch over the kits during playtime without joining in.  Even early on, Goldenkit felt a bit of resentment toward his serious father.  He dreaded the time when he would reach Duskfire’s age and forget what it was like to be a playful kit.  Since then, he has treasured his youth, trying to preserve it by being wistful and playful as he ages.

He and his brother were much larger and more rambunctious than their sister.  Sunsmoke would often reprimand them if they played too rough with her, explaining that she-cats were “ladies,” and should be treated as such.  This ingrained Goldenkit with his chivalrous, idolizing feelings toward females.

Apprentice
Goldenpaw and his siblings were apprenticed near the beginning of the Great War.  Sunsmoke and Duskfire were among those chosen to fight.  Like so many other young cats in HeatherClan, Goldenpaw lost his parents in the ensuing violence.  Their deaths cast a dark shadow over the moons he spent training.  For a long time, he couldn’t work out what purpose the war had served.  Why did they have to fight other clan cats?  Were they really so different?  Why did so many lives need to be lost over something as simple as clan boundaries?  He eventually concluded that rivalries between clans would only ever bring heart break, and that the best solution would be to do away with clan borders.

This belief gave him a new reason to work hard at his apprenticeship.  He gained an ambition to one day become leader and spread his ideology to the rest of the forest.  He quickly realized that the best way to gain the support of his clanmates was through friendliness.  He became sociable, encouraging, and submissive, expertly gaining the affection of his comrades and always managing to divert any anger they may feel toward him.

Warrior
Not long after Goldensmoke was given his warrior name—along with his siblings Blackfur and Honeystreak—a strange Twoleg creation was erected near the clan territories.  Armed with new freedom as a warrior and a burning curiosity, the three siblings decided to secretly explore the enormous, colorful nests.  The exotic scents and sounds of the affair drew in Goldensmoke and Honeystreak, while Blackfur was more reproachful.  Goldensmoke was even so bold as to approach some of the Twoleg kits—they fed him treats and pet him, and while the experience didn’t make him question his loyalty to HeatherClan, it did make him extremely empathetic toward kittypets.  He realized that there was true appeal to a life with Twolegs that went beyond the luxury.  Since then, he has always held a secret affection for Twolegs, especially young ones.

A few moons into his warriorship, a devastating Flood swept through the clans, annihilating StreamClan and the Tribe.  His sympathies for enemy clans caused Goldensmoke to try and provide relief for the cats who received the worst of it.  He traveled to the rival territories, which had been made muddy and treacherous after the storm, and attempted to pull injured cats out of the wreckage.  At one point, he slipped in the mud and was tossed down a rocky slope.  His leg snapped and broke against the boulders.  He was out of commission right up until the clans collectively decided to find a new territory, with his leg unable to heal fully as they embarked on their journey.  To this day he has a slight limp in his front left leg.

On the journey to the new clans, Goldensmoke made several friends with rival clan cats, reaffirming his no-borders ideology.  He had a difficult time making it through on his injured leg, but earned respect from his clanmates when he was able to pull through.

In the new territories, Goldensmoke tried his best to gently influence the leaders to eliminate separate clans all together, but his youth and lack of power made his efforts fruitless.  He buried his disappointment and did his best to be helpful as HeatherClan tried to return to normal, volunteering for extra patrols and being a friendly, encouraging voice of hope for his clanmates.

When HeatherClan’s leader resigned and Foxpelt was selected to succeed him, Goldensmoke prayed that he would be chosen as deputy to no avail.  Once again, he swallowed his frustrations and forced himself to be cheerful, reminding himself that he was still young and most likely not ready for such a lofty position.

Goldensmoke was filled with guilty hope when the current deputy of HeatherClan passed on.  He tried to tell himself to grieve, but he couldn’t help but plead to StaClan, begging to be given a shot as deputy.  He knew that the arrival to the new territories, with everyone nervous and already adjusted to change, gave him the perfect opportunity to change things in the way he saw fit.

For a long time, Foxstar was indecisive, but one evening, a short-lived bushfire ((it was very quickly put out by Twolegs, causing minimal damage)) sent its smoke into the heavens.  From the view of the camp, the light from the setting sun shone brightly through the pillar of smoke, giving it a glowing appearance.  Goldensmoke could hardly believe what was happening—surely this was a sign from StarClan, a sign that his beliefs were correct and would lead the clans into prosperity.  HeatherClan interpreted the smoke in the same way, reaching the conclusion that Goldensmoke was destined to serve at Foxstar’s right paw, and he was named deputy shortly after the sign was given.

Sunsmoke (MOTHER)
“Mother was always so beautiful and strong in her own way.  I wish I’d gotten the chance to know her as an adult before she passed away…”

Duskfire (FATHER)
”He was distant and serious, more like my brother than me or my sister.  He protected us well though, I know he was a great warrior.”

Honeystreak (SISTER)
“She shares my playfulness, and even if she’s a she-cat I know she likes to roughhouse.  We’re very close.  Sometimes I’m scared of losing her…I don’t ever want to let anything happen to her.”

Blackfur (BROTHER)
”Even if we don’t agree on everything, my brother is one of my closest friends.  Mother used to compare us like the sun and the moon—we’re different, but we complement each other well.”


RP Sample
Soft light pushed against Cricketleap’s eyelids, a strange chill spreading over her pelt like a sheet of snow.  She groaned quietly, blinking to wakefulness and untangling herself from her sleeping mate.  Moonlight streamed in through the nursery entrance, bathing the interior in silver.  The odd sensation of cold still pricked over the young warrior’s skin.  A strange feeling was churning in her stomach—it pulled at her, tugging upwards and filling her with anticipation.

What’s going on with me? she wondered in confusion.  Maybe I just need some fresh air…

”Cricketleap.”

The she-cat gasped, the emotions within her intensifying as the quiet voice echoed through the nursery.  It was unlike any voice she had ever heard…pervasive, whispery, and insistent.  The sound of it swept over her fur like wind rushing through heather.  It made her feet itch to run.  She longed to feel the wind soaring around her…

He strikes me as a bit of an idealist?  Someone rather prideful, loyal to a fault, and probably a good deal vain.  

I think he'd have very strict plans for how his life should be, and will become very upset, sort of peevish, when he can't make things go exactly according to plan.  

*shrugs*

Ooo he's cute x3

Well, and OC deputy of mine is funny, maybe a little wimpy (but just a little), but would still give his life for someone else (which is how he died). Oh yeah, he's stubborn too. C: if you wanna do something along the lines ofhispersonality, ththen go for it!
