## Skills/Faults

*Skills*

Sakurapaw is excellent as strategising in battle and thinking up plans of attack. He is also blooming into an excellent fighter in of itself. Sakurapaw is excellent at stalking prey and other cats, even if his hunting skills themselves are a bit lacklustre.

*Faults*

Sakurapaw is terrible at reading people and their emotions, and struggles with interacting with those his age. So far, Sakurapaw has also shown to be a poor tracker and a somewhat bad hunter. He can be incredibly hotheaded and has gotten into a lot of arguments - they really struggling with calming themself down and stepping away from a situation.

## Personality

Due to his upbringing, Sakurapaw is a rather quiet cat who keeps to themselves, tucked away in the Apprentice’s den or hunting alone, even if not permitted. They can be incredibly reclusive at times, cutting themselves off from others for days on end. Because of this, Sakurapaw really struggles to understand the emotions of those around him and struggles severely with a lack of empathy and sympathy, their thought processes being far more logical than emotional. That does not mean Sakurapaw is not prone to emotional outbursts. He can be incredibly hot-headed and rash at times, and has been known to lash out at those around them when they are stressed or upset. Sakurapaw really wants to make friends and be seen as a good apprentice, but struggles a lot with regulating themselves.

## Backstory

Mentions of death, abuse, neglect and canon typical violence

Sakurapaw was not born to a happy family. Turtlefur and Flightpelt had never desired kittens, not while living in the harsh terrains of the starving forest territories. Sakurakit was the only surviving kitten of his litter, but his miraculous survival was never celebrated. Rather, the young kitten was scorned, seen as an omen of darkness cast upon his parents. When he was hardly old enough to walk, young Sakurakit was abandoned by his parents, left alone in a world he was clueless of how to travel. His parents left the Clans all together - two renowned warriors lost to the Clan of Sunlit Piriaries during a time of desperation, all because of one unwanted kitten.

What little family he had abandoned Sakurakit, the Clan deeming him an omen of bad luck, a curse upon the land created by the StarClan itself. As a result their childhood was a lonely one, leaving the young and vulnerable kit ostracised and alone. Before they had even been named an apprentice, Sakurakit was already an angry and bitter young cat, hatred building towards the Clan that had left him in the dirt. His fellow apprentices teased and mocked him, leaving him to find comfort outside of his own Clan.

Despite everything that has been thrown at him, Sakurapaw is still determined to become the best apprentice and warrior the Clans have ever known. They know it’s ambitious, but they desperately want to prove their scornful Clanmates wrong.
