Appearance
Description: Nightpaw is rather large for his age, but quite gentle all the same. He has a placid and calm demeanor. His fur is a dark, charcoal-like grey with rosettes dappling his pelt. The color is darker on his dorsal, but lightens towards his underbelly. He possesses broad shoulders, suggesting a strong and powerful build once he reaches adulthood. The same could also be said about his muzzle. Because of these traits, Night looks a bit top heavy: having a broad thoracic region, and narrow hindquarters. His tail is skinny but long, giving him excellent balance and coordination. His eyes are a calm green with hints of blue scattered here and there. He takes strongly after his father in terms of build, but his mother has left much of herself in his coloration and temperament.
Accessories: N/A
Breed: Bengal mix
Height: 14 inches at adulthood
Weight: 12' lb at adulthood
Fur: Short and sleek, clinging to his frame. It is seemingly waterproof--probably due to him staying out in the rain so often.

Personality
Personality Type: ISFJ (Introverted/Sensing/Feeling/Judging) "The Defender"
"ISFJs are conventional and grounded, and enjoy contributing to established structures of society. They are steady and committed workers with a deep sense of responsibility to others. They focus on fulfilling their duties, particularly when they are taking care of the needs of other people. They want others to know that they are reliable and can be trusted to do what is expected of them. They are conscientious and methodical, and persist until the job is done."
Cardinal: Levelheaded and Possessive
Alignment: Neutral Good
Summary: Night is a feline who can be described as an old soul, wise beyond his years. He has a very calm and tranquil demeanor, always quiet and watchful. The young tom is one to take his time before speaking, and even slower to reveal his true feelings. This gives others the impression that he is unambitious or unmotivated, but that is certainly not the case. Night is very patient, and will always wait for the ideal moment to spring into action. He has a well developed sense of justice and responsibility, always looking out for those around him. At times he may seem a bit overprotective and perhaps even jealously possessive over his dearest friends. Because he is so driven, he may also come across as domineering. But deep down, he truly wants the best for everyone.
Traits:
| Positive: |
{Generous, Patient, Observant, Responsible, and Levelheaded }
[Generous] [showing kindness toward others]
Night is a very kind soul, always willing to help another regardless of who they are or what clan they belong to. He is a firm believer that kindness transcends borders. Even in a situation where he would have to endure hardships or consequences for his generosity, he would still choose to help another. He is also very devoted to those he pledges himself to. Night is very supportive and will always look for a win-win situation whenever it is possible.
[Patient] [able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious]
This tom is not one to rush in, leaping blindly into sporadic decisions. He would prefer to make well thought out decisions and avoid leaving things half-finished if at all possible. He is calm and steady, meticulous and careful. Others might find him slow paced, but Night rather take the steady approach, bending with the needs of the situation just enough to accomplish the goal. He believes in doing the job right rather than being the first one.
[Observant] [quick to notice things; having or showing an ability to accurately assess situations or people and turn this to one's advantage.]
Night is rather astute for his age, always watching the interactions of his seniors and learning. He is very empathetic, carefully observing the emotional state of those in his presence and trying to see things from their perspective. He will almost always choose empathy over judgement whenever possible.
[Responsible] [having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone, as part of one's job or role.]
Night will always work hard to complete a task, and is very reliable due to his resilience. When he forms an emotional attachment to an idea, you can be certain he will not stop until he has finished what he set out to do. He is very enthusiastic and eager to prove himself in this regard.
[Levelheaded/Stable] [calm and sensible;sane and sensible; not easily upset or disturbed]
Not easily angered or agitated, the young tom is very stable emotionally. Being such a reliable and sensible tom, many would describe Night as being down-to-earth. At first glance, he does not appear very extraordinary in any regard. He is polite, sensible, and pleasant to be around. But that is just about all there is to him at face value. One would have to dive deeper to see what lies beneath the calm waters.
| Neutral: |
{Practical, Persistent, Virile, and Independent}
[Practical] [of or concerned with the actual doing or use of something rather than with theory and ideas.]
Night has excellent practical skills. He is eager to complete tasks in the most efficient way possible, not one to waste time or get distracted. However, he lacks inventiveness. Night is so focused on actually doing something, that he neglects the theory or idea behind what he is doing. He is not concerned with how something came into being, he only wants to know that it exists and how to use it.
[Persistent] [continuing firmly or obstinately in a course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.]
Once he has his eyes set on something, he will put his all into it. And he will not give up, even if he is faced with difficult obstacles or tribulations along the way. While this trait helps him complete tasks, it is more often than not a hindrance when it comes to social endeavors. This is because he is terribly stubborn.
[Verile] [having strength, energy, and a strong sex drive]
He is very energetic and enthusiastic. Rarely running out of energy, the tom can pour so much effort into tasks and relationships. While most others are ready to return to patrol, Night is almost always wanting to go out on another one. Even when he is absolutely exhausted and beat to the bone, he rather not sit around. He always likes to be moving his paws and keeping himself busy.
[Independent] [free from outside control; not depending on another's authority.]
While he is loving and generous, the tom is very emotionally independent. He does not like to rely on others for his happiness, but rather share happiness with them. He wants to appear strong, and has a hard time accepting help from others when he hits a rough patch. This is because he is quite private and sensitive, resulting in an unhealthy lack of emotional expression. He would only show his pain and weaknesses to those he trusts the most, and even then he struggles with it. He is more the 'sob in silence' type.
| Negative: |
{Self-indulgent, Possessive, Bossy, Inconsistent, and Inflexible}
[Indulgent] [having or indicating a tendency to be overly generous to or lenient with someone.]
While he is by no means selfish, Night can be a glutton. He wont think twice to accommodate himself, or take what he wants if the opportunity presents itself. He has his own ambitions and aspirations he wants to live up to, and he will peruse them.
[Possessive/Jealous] [demanding someone's total attention and love.]
When he finds someone he cares deeply for, Night can grow very overprotective. However this usually translates to jealousy and even resentment to others. He thinks everyone he holds dear is placed under his care and protection, and in some cases, he goes as far as thinking they are his property.
[Bossy] [fond of giving people orders; domineering]
While he is very easygoing and laid back, Night can still be very uncompromising if he believes he is right and the other is wrong. While this trait is usually not seen upfront, Night is a very dominant personality. If someone challenges him, he will butt heads with them and fight for top spot. But this is a very repressed trait, only surfacing in small doses at first: Suggestions, pressing advice, ect.
[Inconsistent] [acting at variance with one's own principles or former conduct]
Being that Night is able to bend to work his way to accomplishing a goal, many find him to be a bit two-faced. While he keeps his true feelings close to heart and will not budge on them, he does not reveal them. Instead, he has a morals that he can manipulate to advance himself when the situation rises. So at times, no one really knows what he truly stands for.
[Inflexible] [unwilling to change or compromise.]
While he is able to bend on his own terms, he is not able to adjust to change that is unanticipated with such ease. He values traditions and routines. Sudden changes severely stress him out, and he usually does not cope well. Situations such as these normally require someone persuading him--usually someone who is just as strong-willed as he.

History
[Prelude]:
Leopardpaw and Darkpaw met when they were young apprentices, though Leopardpaw was a few moons older than his denmate at the time. Darkpaw had wandered away from camp to try practicing hunting on her own, only to find herself in a dangerous situation. Her inexperience rendered her incapable of realizing that a small group of rogues were wandering about the territory, drawing closer and closer to her. One of the rogues found the young apprentice, and went to attack her. It was assumed that he had hoped to use the little she-cat as a bargaining chip, after all, the rogues were quite fond of Mapleclan's hunting grounds.
Fortunately for Darkpaw, a patrol was making their rounds, and leopardpaw stumbled upon the scene. Without thinking, the young tom sprung at the rogue, and the pair rolled in the grass screeching and clawing. The rest of his patrol had tracked down the other two, and chased them off the territory. By the time the warriors returned, Leopardpaw had subdued the rogue, forcing him to flee after his companions.
To reward the young tom for his bravery and skill, he was given his warrior name, Leopardclaw, and sat vigil that night. But afterwards, he and Darkpaw's relationship grew closer. They did almost everything together. They pulled pranks, stayed out late, and were the typical, irresponsible young couple. Leopardclaw as a young warrior, was often chastised for his behavior, though he did not mind it--he was smitten.
It would only be three more moons before Darkpaw would receive her warrior name, Darkwhisker, and the pair could finally join each other again. Moons later, and the pair were inseparable. So much so, that the entire clan were sure there would be new kits coming by the time Newleaf arrived.
And they were correct to assume so. In the late summer, the pair had their first litter. They named them Dustkit, Smokekit, and Reedkit. Ecstatic, the new parents adored their children--especially Leopardclaw who was absolutely thrilled to father kits. He was very involved with their lives, often play-fighting with them and showing them beginner moves when Darkwhisker was not looking. Before long, their brood would reach their sixth moon and step up to receive their new names and mentors.
However, the joy would not last for much longer. Late in his apprenticeship, Smokepaw and Leopardclaw had a falling out. To this day, it is still unknown as to why, as the family do not speak of it. Due to the strained relationship between father and son, Smokepaw would distance himself from the family, even his littermates. By the time they were given their warrior names, much of the familyhad begun to shun the dark-pelted brother. And he was rarely, if ever, brought up.
[Kithood]:
A season later, Darkwhisker and Leopardclaw decided to have their second litter. Despite the unfortunate events with smokepelt, the pair still felt as if parenthood was very rewarding. Darkwhisker soon became pregnant, and during mid newleaf the queen gave birth to four kits. They were named Viperkit, Spottedkit, Adderkit, and Nightkit.
While his littermates were very close and would play together most of the time, Nightkit was different. He would stand by, watching the others play. He preferred the company of older cats--like his mother and older siblings. He especially to interest in Smokepelt, his mysteriously distant brother.
As for his other siblings, Nightkit loved them, but preferred to stay out of their antics. Viperkit was much too loud and rambunctious for his taste. And she was quite bossy, which did not sit well with him considering he was much the same, albeit more reserved about it. He never fought with his sister, though. He let her do as she wished, and if she got too overwhelming, he would retreat to his mother's belly or go find Smokepelt.
Smokepelt was wise. Smokepelt was interesting. And he was quiet, never one to try and tell Nightkit what to do. The young kit grew very perplexed and curious as to why his other siblings did not seem to like their older brother--not even Smokepelt's littermates. But even when he would ask, the dark tom would just shrug and offer no words. As the moons went on, Nightkit began to resent his father, who seemed to dislike Smokepelt the most. Nightkit blamed him for his older borther's lack of involvement, and slowly became distant from his father.
This, of course, did not sit well with his father. He had begun to believe that Smokepelt was turning his young son against him. Tension slowly built up between the three, and by the time Nightpaw was apprenticed, he all but ignored his father's existence.
[Apprenticeship]:
While their sister unexpectedly took the noble path of training under the Clan's medicine cat, the rest of the siblings became warrior apprentices. Nightpaw had hoped to get Smokepelt as his mentor, but it was not to be. Instead, Nightpaw was assigned to [xxx] and began his training. Despite being disappointed, Nightpaw still made sure to be polite and respectful to his mentor. He was a quiet and reserved apprentice, but eager to learn all the same. Nightpaw was determined to learn all that he could so that he might one day become a legendary warrior of his clan. Perhaps even would day he could become leader. But he keeps these aspirations close to his heart, never uttering a word about his ambitions.

[Hobbies]
He loves taking long walks. Usually solo, though he would not turn down company.
Treasure hunting, or foraging. He enjoys wandering aimlessly about the territory in search of interesting or pretty things.
Love to watch the clouds and stargaze. He is also very fascinated by weather. Whenever a storm is afoot, he often goes outside to watch it blow in while the rest of his clanmates take to their dens. Many times he has returned to the apprentice den soaked from rainfall, much to his denmate's dismay.
[Strange habits]
Night has a lot of little quirks and rituals, all of which tie into the number seven. For example, he has to circle his nest seven times before settling. When asked, he claims the dizziness helps him relax. When he is breaking an egg, he has to tap on it seven times before cracking it. Before he climes a tree, he circles it seven times. The list goes on.
Also, before he falls asleep at night, he recites the names of every cat he has ever met so that he wont forget anyone.
[Trivia]
- Night is a recycled and rejuvenated design of an OC I had since 7th grade.
- He is a very superstitious character.
- He is obsessed with eggs. Being that they are so rare, he will go crazy for one. He would even stoop so low as stealing an egg from someone else.
- I never pictured him bonding with, or even liking his father. Instead, I see him being quite the mummy's boy.

R P - S a m p l e[ Taken from a DotW RolePlay || Character: Jerikoh ]
He eyed her, torn ear twitching away her malice. He wondered what had made this young wolf so bitter. Was being raised in royalty this terrible? Sure, there was the rebels to account for, but surely the King and his family had support too?
Rolling his eyes at her threats, he rose to his paws. ”Be my guest~” He cooed, circling her now. It was not his problem if the alliance was called off. ”I doubt we’d miss it. It seems that most of the domain despise Vale, and your lands are barren. Not much can be gained from this alliance. Other than enemies and dried bones.”
The dark wolf continued to circle her, eyes falling on her figure with pity. Something about her seemed melancholy. This was no way a pup should behave. Not even he was this dark. And he certainly did not have the happiest of puphoods.
”From anybody, really.” Jerikoh told her. He cared not to address her previous topic of slaying those who oppose her. He was not in the mood to discuss angst-driven aspirations.
”You do not need to trust someone to learn from them.” He found his way back to his previous place in front of her. There, he slid to his belly and crossed his paws neatly in front of him. ”There is much to be learned from simply observing those around you. Personally, I do not trust anyone.” The Omega told her matter-of-factly.

Your style and shading is absolutely gorgeous!
Perhaps may I ask what do you use - tablet and Paint Tool SAI?
(I'm sorry for asking, I'm an aspiring artist looking for the best tips to start off ;o

Jaeggy In reply to Origami-Dreams [2016-06-07 23:05:29 +0000 UTC]
AAA thank you ;W;
I am actually fortunate to have my hands on Photoshop ;w;
But I can tell you that Sai is absolutely fantastic and sometimes I wish I had an OS that was compatible with it (I am a Mac user and Sai is not compatible with it).
Sai is superb for line-art and coloring--very efficient if you know how to use your tools (all can be learned by watching youtube videos and reading tutorials on DA). The only aspect I feel photoshop has the jump on Sai with is when it comes to backgrounds. However I have seen people do wonders with that on Sai--far better than I could do with PS so it's really up to how much effort and practice you put into developing your digital art skills.
And yes--I use a wacom tablet ;w;

I am also a Mac user as well - so that's quite disappointing to hear that Sai isn't compatible...
But thank you so much for your reply!

Mac's are compatible with this other free program that is called Gimp. I can't say it is better than Sai but it's something--it's what I started on when I first started digital art.
BUT there are prolly other options out there--I hear people use something called FireAlpaca but idk what OS it runs on... But you can probably google search 'free alternatives to photoshop' and find yourself some free options!
ALSO
I hear one of the older versions of Photoshop is free for download now! I forget which one though... ;A;
