TRAITS Positive
+Astute: "Okay. So in order to safely move from the moors to the rivers without any birds of prey seeing you would likely be through the western edge of the border down by SkyClan because it's more woodsy- Oh also you can find (insert long list of exact prey found in area)"
Tumblepaw has a better time memorizing information and spouting it than remembering battle moves or putting his hunting knowlege into action and as much as it irritates him, he knows that he can help others with this information. He knows the best way to crouch in a hunting stance and how to position yourself if he directs you but doing it himself tends to lead to more frustration than result.
+Friendly: "Do not worry! Good Ol' Tumble isn't dangerous!"
Though he is a bit of an odd duck and his behavior makes others nervous, Tumblepaw is actually extremely friendly and would talk for moons and moons if given the chance! He's chattier than a squirrel
+Perceptive: As flighty as he is, Tumblepaw tends to pretty well when it comes to paying attention to things, he has a bit of difficult with social cues but when it comes to things like learning the best place to gather certian supplies or how to technically do a battle move he has that down pact.
Neutral
= Blunt - "You okay? You look like dirt today- Wh? What's wrong? I didn't mean it bad, you just have a lot of stuff in your fur still and it's midday!"
Tumblepaw doesn't think about what he says a lot, sometimes it can equate to off the wall complements or sometimes it's insulting others unintentionally but you can always rely on him to tell the truth! He doesn't think through his words enough to lie.
= Thorough - "No! I have to get this right, I don't want to keep messing this up, I'll eat later"
He has a lot of trouble with some things and when he does, he dedicates himself to it 100%. He will skip meals and work through the day to get everything that he can down pact because he doesn't want to fall behind anyone just because he has trouble understanding sometimes.
= Jittery - "Gorsehop? Can we go running today? My paws really itch, I have to move! I know you said I should stay in camp but I just can't stand it"
Tumblepaw always has to be doing something, he has to keep his paws busy or it leads him to getting anxious. But on the bright side of that, he is very fast and gets a lot done because of this.
= Curious "I just wanted to see what it was like!"
Tumblepaw can always be found trying to learn something, whether it be walking the entirety of the clan's border and trying to learn cats that tend to patrol there and at what time to stalking rabbits rather than hunting them and watch them burrow and try to copy them.
Focused: "...Huh? What do you mean it's almost sundown? I almost have this done!"
Tumble tends to lose track of time when he works on something that he has a lot of intrerest in, again, forgetting to eat or sleep sometimes, especially when it comes to building or something crafty. He enjoys having things to do and when he's focused, he's focused. It's hard to pull him away and he tends to zone in heavily.
Negative
-Loud: "I can't help it! i'M JUST SO EXCITED"
Tumblepaw has an issue controlling his volume when he starts getting excited which results in a lot of yelling from his end. It makes his denmates not get as much rest as needed so he needs to go outside quite a bit to talk. But also if he gets too excited and doesn't know what to do, he has a bad habit of just screaming in general. One long. Loud. Screech.
-Anxious: "Oh geez.. Uhm, okay... I can do this I... Cant'! I cantIcanticant..."
Tumblepaw has 2 modes when excited, either he goes into an anxious breakdown where he scratches and bites constantly, chattering nervously, or he just yells. He accidentally shreds things when he gets too worked up.
Easily disregarded: "I wanted to talk about- Oh. Okay.. Have a nice day..."
Because of the way he was raised, he's used to being ignored and finds it easier to try and fade into the background rather than stand up for himself without saying anything else more. What's the point of stirring up a fuss, anyways? It just gets feelings hurt.
Background:
Tumblekit was born to a litter of three, two sisters who had near identical pelt patterns and him, all three calicos. For the first moon or so his parents thought that they had three she-kits until Tumblekit's true sex revealed itself when he devolped his own scent and not just one that was his mother's and milk. He was born a calico tom, a rarity apparently. Even though Tumblekit didn't feel special at all. As he started devolping a personality as well, the other kits, including his sisters started avoiding him because they thought he was wierd. He always bit them and things around them, he'd constantly yell and among other things, they really didn't understand him so they tended to just leave him alone. It didn't help that his mother Birdflutter, didn't try to accomodate him, she'd just scold him with comments like 'why can't you be normal like all the other kits? Do you see them yelling? Or biting? Or obsessivly grooming to the point you get sensitive skin? No! So stop it and straighten up!"
This led him to distancing himself from his family, his father was distant to start with and had his own strange tendencies but he curbed them well, it seemed. He could seem normal to everyone else so he didn't understand why he couldn't. The only one who didn't think him wierd was the deputy of all cats, Gorsehop. He was his only friend it felt like, he was thankful for the warrior coming to befriend him near the end of his kithood
Apprenticeship
What he wasn't so thankful was being thrust into the spotlight by being picked at the deputy's apprentice. There were so many eyes on him now! Everyone was going to pay attention to him now and just think he's wierder and that Gorsehop deserved a better apprentice who did better at his training and didn't screech like a bird when he got overwhelmed. This is going to be difficult..
// Family
// Dead
// Mate
💔 // Ex-Mate
🚫 // Fling
Birdflutter- Mother [tenitive relationship. He loves her but he avoids talking to her because he knows that she'll likely find something to scold him about that she doesn't like]
Rabbitpounce- Father [He sees a lot of himself in his father, but they never talk because he's distanced himself from his past mate and kits. Apparently he never really wanted a family.]
Sproutpaw- Sister [She thinks he's wierd and tends to side with their mother in getting onto him and calling out his strange behaviors. He believes that she doesn't like him.]
Beanpaw- Sister [He at least talks to Beanpaw, she's not as snide as Sproutpaw but she does still think he's wierd. But she's not mean about it. She'll try to go along with it to a point then just dip out]
Gorsehop - Mentor [Tumble gets along with him really well, he's the first cat he's ever met that isn't driven away by his quirks and tends to be very understanding and that is something that he is not used to at all but loves very much. He thinks very highly of his mentor.]
