Crashpaw

Crashpaw is an ash tabby tom with blue eyes.
==Description==
===Physical===
Similar to his parents, the young tom is sturdy and lean. He isn't the tallest cat in the clan, perhaps a hair on the smaller side for a SeaClanner, but he makes do with what he has. He is agile on his paws, and perhaps this forte is what saves his skin when he gets himself in over his head. Crashpaw is very flexible and has an overall youthful form, as in he bounces back quickly whenever injured. His endurance is also impressive, likely backed up by his unbreakable spirit.
The tom is a unique blend of fur of unnatural shades. He appears to be gray-brown in the base, a color most often seen in black-based tabbies. The simplest way to describe him is "ash", a color similar to the bark of the brawny ash tree. Crashpaw is lacerated in dark stripes that aren't quite black, therefore making him not a black-based or brown tabby. The tom has minimal white spotting, found mostly on his chest and toes.
===Personality===
As his name might suggest, the tabby is absolutely reckless. His daring and somewhat brash personality results in Crashpaw finding himself in plenty trouble. He aims to please and build himself into the greatest warrior ever seen. While his drive and purpose is good, the tom tends to bite off way too much than he can chew. He grows frustrated when things are over his head, but that doesn't stop him. It seems that the feline likes to keep coming back for more and never learns his lesson. His daring personality might seem charming, but more often than not, the senior warriors view Crashpaw as a fool. However, things do occasionally go well, and his boldness pays off, when it's at the right time during the right moment.
The tom's quirks can be very influential on his peers. Overall, he's a strong and sturdy character that doesn't appear to take much to heart, making him a contagious companion and an unfortunate role model to the youngsters. Fortunately, the lucky and reckless Crashpaw appears rather patriotic. Perhaps he isn't perfectly loyal to the code, but when he's supporting a cause, he's ride-or-die.
==History==
===Roleplay===
The kitten is born as the only tom in the litter of Foamheart and Conchsong. He is born alongside two sisters: Chestnutkit and Flurrykit. It becomes apparent that he's eager to become the "best warrior ever" as he's eager to begin training, even as a young kitten. Nonetheless, he's stupidly reckless, but perhaps it'll work to his own advantage.
A few moons after his birth, his parents end their relationship. For the time being, he seems more focused on the sea, and ends up heading down to the beach. Youngsters swimming were forbidden upon the death of a few apprentices (shark bait), but he ignores the rule and ends up having his sister tag along with him. Splashkit appears as well, but he's short with her and jumps in the water immediately. He eventually cuts his paw and returns home, where he has a brief conversation with Flurrykit
A TundraClan warrior invades camp while SeaClan is at the Gathering, and they steal several kits and an apprentice. Chestnutkit is taken, resulting in Crashkit to pursue the follower and desperately attempt to get his sister back. In the end, they lead him to TundraClan camp, where he is taken captive. 
Crashkit rashly defends his sister on several occasions, resulting in him getting beaten up frequently. He makes several sarcastic and bold remarks to their leader, Loststar, which catches the leader's attention. He takes Crashkit out of camp, and informs him that he's to be trained as a top warrior for his plans. If he disobeys or tries to flee, he will kill his sister- his clear weakness. Crashkit is left with no choice but to accept.
He upholds his typical bold personality and never hesitates to step in to defend his sister. Baypaw quickly gets on his nerves by pushing Chestnutpaw to fight for herself. As a result, she kills another cat, making Crashpaw furious with Baypaw for influencing her so poorly. The she-cat proceeds to get on his nerves, and he makes it a point to avoid her.
He eventually fights with Whiterose and is wounded as a result. He spends some time in the nursery before he, once more, rushes in to defend his sister. Loststar orders to two to fight each other, brother against sister, and Crashpaw refuses before shooting several snarky remarks in Loststar's direction, challenging the leader directly. He agrees to fight any other cat, and is then paired against Driftpaw, who severely injures him by throwing him into a pile of sharp rocks. He then spends even more time in the medicine cat den.

==Relationships==
===Family===
Foamheart & Conchsong:
:His parents seemed to have a distant parenting style, resulting in the tom to overall grow up independent from them. He seldom interacted with his parents, and as a result, Crashpaw doesn't have much of a bond with them. Of course, he respects them as his family and does care about them, but he also feels as if he hardly knows them.
Flurrykit:
:Similar to his other sister, Crashpaw is very protective of Flurrykit. Although, she appears to get herself into a little less trouble, hence his concern with her being less. He'll see to it that she does well, and that nobody picks on her. He respects her calmer demeanor, and sometimes finds it a little more relaxing to be around her, rather than Chestnutkit when she's on an energy trip. 
Chestnutkit:
:When it comes to his sister, the impulsive tom is willing to die for her. He doesn't always agree in her taste of company, or her high energy, but he's still extremely protective over her. Perhaps Crashpaw can be somewhat of a nuisance himself, but his good quality definitely rests in his bond with his sister. He frequently checks up on her, and won't hesitate to beat some sense into any cat that teases her. He sees a good cat in her, a feline much better than himself, and so he sees to it that she survives and prospers, even if at the cost of his own life.
===Other===
Splashkit:
:Not much to say about the she-cat- their interaction was brief, and she annoyed him for the time that she was with him. But it comes as no surprise, most cats annoy him, anyways. Fortunately, she seems pretty good at staying out of his way for the most part. 
Blizzardkit:
:A friend of his sister whom he frequently gets suspicious of. Blizzardkit seems pretty cool this far, mostly due to his dopey nature, and so Crashpaw is therefore comfortable with him being around Chestnutkit. Mostly because he's plenty confident that he could beat up the pale tom if he ever hurt his sister's feelings.
Shypaw:
:He considers the medicine cat apprentice to be spineless, and therefore somewhat of a nuisance. Fortunately, he seems to be a relatively reliable and respectable cat when he's not making himself look like a huge fool, so Crashpaw tolerates him for that reason. 
===Enemies===
Loststar:
:The cat who kidnapped him and essentially blackmailed him into sticking around by means of threatening Chestnutkit's life- what's not to hate? He finds the tom's ideas for his clan foolish and likely to fall through, but the threat on his sister's life is still disturbing. He has vowed his revenge on Loststar for not only ruining his kithood, but his sister's as well. He finds the dark-furred leader to be vile and twisted in the head, a cat that needs to be destroyed. Crashpaw intends on being the one to end Loststar's life- and he'll stop at nothing to do so.
Whiterose:
:Loststar's partner-in-crime, so naturally, Crashpaw despises her just as much. Fortunately, he's been able to take out some of that wrath physically on the she-cat. He finds her pointlessly violent- and that's coming from a cat as rash as Crashpaw. He might hate her a hair less than Loststar, but still, he wants to crush her once he's old enough. Loststar's at least willing to make deals, but Whiterose? She just gets in the way of them. He doesn't trust her. 
Baykit:
:He finds that the she-cat does nothing but get in his way and fill his sister's head with nonesense. He's perfectly capable of defending Chestnutkit on his own, but Baykit just had to open her mouth and make things result in chaos. He despises Baykit and now WillowClan as well, and looks forward to having her out of his way again. Her constant attempts to help only further irritate him.
