*Name: Greyskip
*Age: 31 Moons Old
*Gender: Male
*Overall Appearance: Greyskip is a large tom with broad shoulders and a tall height and eyes are a mustard yellow/golden gleam. His fur is layered. The bottom layer is always a black-blue. However, edges to the center, the top fur turns white. Greyskip's second layer stops its growth at it approaches his face and paws.
*In-Depth Color: From the tip of his muzzle, a blue-black color inhibits that area. Branching off the cheekbones, tufts of white hairs grow. The long, luxurious, fur conquers most of Greylight's pelt. They hover over his paws and do not expand their borders any further. The round belly of Grayskip's is completely covered in fur ranging from grey to light grey in color.
*In-depth Build: Synonyms for "small" is not the description one might label Greyskip. He is a bulky cat and his long fur only adds to his large appearance. Though his size is slightly exaggerated, courtesy of his long fur, Greyskip truly is a larger cat than average. Note: Greyskip is based off of the Norwegian Forest Cat (his picture is of a Norwegian Forest Cat) which is a large breed and the reason Greyskip is so large.
*Personality: Greyskip is a very social cat who likes being around others. He relishes the company of others because he has anxiety issues when isolated. He enjoys chatting idly with his fellow clanmates because it is a way to reassure himself that he is safe and he has the support of his clanmates. Leaving him by himself is not recommended, as he is known to panic very quickly and make rookie mistakes. Greyskip relies especially on the support of his clanmates. He is very frightened of breaking the Warrior Code because he fears he would be exiled from the clans. That is something Greyskip can not afford so he is a staunch follower of the Warrior Code.
While it is good to be close to one's clanmates, Greyskip tends to have meltdowns when any of his clanmates are hurt or injured, even if it is only a minor injury. He will constantly fret over even a slight injured clanmate to the point where it gets extremely tiresome to listen to. He worries over his clanmates because he fears losing his family (which he considers to be his whole clan). Greyskip is driven by his anxiety of being alone to protect and care for his "family", though he definitely goes overboard.
Since he doesn't want to push his clanmates away, Greyskip tends to go along with whatever his clanmates say, so as long as it does not jeopardize his relations with his other clanmates or so as long as it does not go against the Warrior Code - He is still a fairly young cat who likes to have fun sometimes. This does mean he becomes very flustered whenever a debate appears. He does not like taking sides so he tries to avoid conflict among his clanmates as much as he can. However, it seems Greyskip has knack at landing himself in the middle of two warring cats.
*+ Amiable, Agreeable
*- Panicky, Overly protective, Worryful
*; Social, Emotionally dependent
*Skill Paragraph: As his suffix suggests, Greyskip tends to have a bit of a skip to his gait. This results in his ability to travel more ground slightly quicker than a cat who is walking at an average pace. Though he is able to walk faster than other cats, his long coat makes it impossible to run long distances without overheating.
Due to his fur often getting stuck in jagged or uneven surfaces of trees, Greyskip is severely disadvantaged when climbing. Perhaps if trees were smoother Greyskip would be much better af climbing.
In all honesty, he was meant more for DappleClan rather then ShadeClan. His nature fits more of DappleClan's peaceful ways. But not only that, his fur was meant to get wet. His double coat not only acts as an insulator, but also as a sort of wet suit. One might wonder how Greyskip is a ShadeClan cat. The answer to this lies in his family history.
