==Interests==
Likes
In the mornings of green-leaf, Citrustwist likes to stretch out in the grass and absorb the rays of the sun into his fur. At the end of a long day of work, he likes to curl up in the corner of the den and have a long chat with friends/family before having a snooze. He also likes the feeling of wet mud on his paw pads after working hard in the tunnels.
Dislikes
Citrustwist doesn’t like the idea of seeing a snake deep down in the tunnels. He might even call it a fear. Those beedy-eyed, oversized worms give him the creeps. He also has a mild adversion to the snow as it makes digging even harder to do.
==Skills/Faults==
Skills
Citrustwist is incredibly energetic and tends to rise with the sun but never fall with the moon. He is always one of the earliest out of the den, eager to get a headstart on a new tunneling project and, to his denmates' dismay, makes a point of announcing that he’s awake with his obsessively loud digging.  Citrustwist is also very talkative and not afraid to poke his nose where it doesn’t belong to find some juicy news, but he’s anything but a gossip. He knows how to keep a secret and when to only use his ears for listening. Even if a high rank were to probe him for a secret he would stay tight-lipped. The tom is also a good problem solver and can come out with wild ideas that strangely seem to work in one way or another and, if not, provide the clan with some relief from the struggle for survival. Above all else, Citrustwist provided loyalty to his clan and those he upholds as his closest friends and family.
Faults 
Citruttwist is easily swayed by the appeal of emotion. He would even go as far as to break the code if it meant putting morals above the law. Another reason why he struggles to go along with the decisions of high ranks. He is also overly optimistic to the point where it annoys others. Sometimes issues can’t be solved simply with perseverance and a smile, but he fails to understand that. At the prospect of a fight, Citrustwist is likely to back down and try to circle back through talking it out. To others though this makes him seem cowardly or a pushover since not every problem can be settled with words. Citrustwist can also be extremely nosy. He sees it as a way to learn about his clanmates much to their disagreement who even go as far as to avoid him when talking about something minor. Lastly, he can be quite jarring in his beliefs. To him, if there’s to be change then it needs to happen immediately which can be shocking to more traditional/older clanmates.
==Personality==
Citrustwist is a bubbly and laidback tom who thinks with his heart instead of his brain. He tends to take his duties seriously but has difficulty following the instructions of those of high rank and approaches everyone with the same casualty regardless of status. Citrustwist isn’t good with confrontation, preferring to solve problems with conversation or creativity rather than settle them with fights. In fact, he is a bit squeamish at the thought of violence which makes him look like a coward in the face of a challenge. However, Citrustwist has good mediation skills and knows how to settle an argument with persuasion and a good laugh. He is also very lenient and understanding of others, which makes him great for kit-sitting whenever the Queens need a break and his high energy enables him to keep up.

==Detailed Appearance==
Citrustwist is a very pale, ginger, and white tom with amber eyes. His fur is shaggy and mildly unkempt due to his tunnelings and is often still covered with small patches of mud. Citrustwist has an average build, but his ears are slightly thicker so that he can detect echoes deep underground. His paws are also wider so that he can haul out more mounds of dirt and grasp for better holds.

==Backstory==
Citrustwist was the only surviving kit of his parent's litter. Dandelionkit was just too weak and it was the middle of leafbare too. Instead of pushing Citruskit away, Polarspike and Dizzycurl embraced him and perhaps even spoiled him overtly, causing him to grow up a little entitled. This didn’t run well with his first mentor (at first trained as a sentinel trainee) who quickly grew exhausted with Citruspaw’s lack of respect and tomfoolery. Citruspaw would have constant outbursts about how he was a failure at the role until his mother introduced him to tunneling. Citruspaw quickly caught on and, by gaining confidence, he also gained better respect for others. Deep down in the tunnels, how much you dug defined you. Not winning petty fights. And Citruspaw could dig. In the tunnels, Citruspaw found a community that understood him and supported him as he grew from a trainee to an official tunneler. Now, he remains carefree and easy to get along with, though some seem adverse to his chipper, can-do attitude. Citrustwist wouldn’t trade his life for anything.
==Trivia==
*Citrustwist can recite the entire warrior code backwards. He doesn’t know how he can do this, it’s just something he managed to accomplish when he was a ‘paw.
