24 moons - (formerly) Riverclan - rogue/loner
Appearance
Downpour is an average sized feral cat, though he is very strong and well built, with toned muscles. His soft, doubled layered coat is thick and sleek. He's a bit top heavy, like most water loving cats are, and his fur is very water resistant. His fur is a light, pale grey, with dark grey -almost black- tabby markings. His eyes are a deep grey-blue, and seem to hold only gentle kindness, and a wisdom that very few cats could even imagine.

Personality
Downpour believes in justice, and will do whatever he can to see that it's been served; he feels that this is important when trying to achieve balance within a society. He's received more experience then an average cat at his age, and has become wise because of it. He's not a very intelligent cat, but he is knowledgeable. He will do everything in his ability for his clan, and those that are close to him. He will go out of his way to do anything for the ones he cares for. He's responsible, tenacious and resilient.

History
Downpour was born on a stormy night in Leaf fall, with his sister as his only litter mate. He was like many kits, always a cheerful and happy, and never thought anything could ever go wrong, but that time was very short lived. His father was a rogue, who recently joined the clan to be with his mate, but -not too long after- he disappeared. His mother left to go and look for him, and she was eventually found, dead, by her clanmates. His life had started it's dramatic change, at that point. He took it upon himself, to watch over his sister. They grew very close, and Downpour gained a great deal of knowledge from the experience.
When he just received his warrior name, his sister was dragged into camp... torn and lifeless. He was stricken with grief, and fuming rage; for he was certain that she was murdered and he knew knew the cat who did it. He went to confront the rival clan cat. He beat the other cat, easily overpowering him, and forced him to give him the confirmation that he wanted. The other tom did admit that he had killed his sister, but he then said he would never tell anyone else, and that there was no proof. At that moment he escaped from Downpour's grasp, but he lost his footing and fell off a huge pile of trash. The fall had killed him. The Riverclan Mercenary went to the other tom, but before he knew what was happening, a group of cats from each his own clan and the rival cat's, stood there before him. It appeared to everyone, that Downpour had murdered the tom, with his paws and face stained with his blood. The rival clan demanded that something should be done, and Riverclan had no choice... they banished their newly made Mercenary right then and there.
Downpour left that day, his figure fading into the flurry of snow, as he padded away from the only home he knew. He had lost everything he had left, and he didn't know what to do. After a long time of traveling, his journey had taken him to the Mountain Spine. He decided to live there, not caring anymore if he lived or died, but once he entered that territory he came face to face with dangers and threats that he had never known. During that time, he grew stronger and more wise, he also came to the realization that if he was struggling, then his clan was too. No matter what, he should be there for his clan, wither they wanted him or not, and regardless that they had banished him. So he returned.
