Violet Clouds At Dusk

Violet Clouds At Dusk "Violet" is a ruddy ticked tabby molly with golden eyes. She is one moon old.

## Personality

Violet is a simple cat with simple needs.  She wants to get older quickly so she can start her training, and she wants to be the absolute *best* Tribe member around.  She is very determined in the way that she chases that goal, even if she's a bit clumsy.  And doesn't have the best senses.  And frankly, pretty dumb.  She is a happy, social type of cat, unafraid of putting herself out there and making friends.  She tends to view everything she does as a mission, and takes it as seriously as if it was sent from the Tribe Above themselves — if she wants to make a friend, then she'll be relentless is pursuing one.  If she wants to play a game, then she's going to win it.  She wants to be a swamp-guard, and she's going to be *great* at it — needless to say, she's a very confident cat.  Part of why she's so determined to be the best is that she wants to help take care of the Tribe she lives in, like all the adults around her do, but another part of it is that she's scared if she isn't good enough then cats will stop liking her.  She has no evidence to back up these thoughts, but she can't stop herself from thinking them, and as such she is constantly pushing herself to get better and better at everything she does so cats won't have a *reason* to not like her.  She's a bit impressionable; a cat could easily convince her of just about anything, especially if she likes them.  Mouse also tends to emulate cats that she likes and respects, doing her best to act like them and taking any advice that they give her to heart.  Though, sometimes that advice doesn't quite work out: if her mother, for example, told her to smile at a cat she was struggling to get along with rather than fight with them, she would try it, but also quickly decide that that advice was absolute bullshit and decide to attack the cat in question.  In general, she tends to assume that violence can solve all her problems: living in the Tribe as she is, she's pretty desensitized to violence, especially for a kit.  She tends to think that all of the conflict is just *cool*, and is absolutely positive that her Tribe will always come out on top — and that she'll be able to help make sure it happens, someday soon.  Violet tends to not understand everything that's said to her, either not comprehending it at all or interpreting it in an entirely different way than intended.  Generally, this will lead her to having some Shenanigans (TM), and she can even end up inserting herself into situations if she thinks she can help them be resolved (something which is almost assuredly to get her in trouble, someday).  She also doesn't have the best sense of hearing, and tends to mis-hear things or miss them entirely.  She will often repeat words she's heard wrong, and says "thank you berry much" pretty often.  More prominently, though, she is a very perceptive cat: some cats might think that she's a mind-reader, but in reality, she simply has a talent for reading a cat's body language and expressions.  She'll often assure cats not to worry before they even tell her if they're concerned about something, or acting before she's expected to if she's sure that it's something that can help — mostly others, but sometimes herself, too.  Since she doesn't know how to communicate any of this, though, she really does appear like a mind-reader at times.
