#### Detailed Personality

Runningrapid is a strong-willed tom who often puts his foot down often and doesn't give up until he gets what he wants. He's stubborn as a mule and intelligent too, which can lead to him sometimes being unaware of his manipulative tendencies. He's very precise in his work and is a bit of a perfectionist when paired with his stubbornness. He's secretive and suspicious and doesn't tell anyone much about him, and barely trusts anyone. He's spiteful and jealous and when he's wronged he will almost always find a way to get revenge on them, as well as sometimes going farther than he intended.

## Backstory

### Kithood

Runningkit was born an only child to Frostnose, his mother, and Smogcloud, his father. He was named after how Frostnose was planning to run away from WindClan. His parents were both quiet, dutiful WindClan warriors who tried to keep up a 'perfect family' facade but they both just hated each other, really. Frostnose and Smogcloud decided to disown Runningkit when he was five moons old and break up and Frostnose left WindClan, which broke Runningkit's heart.

Smogcloud barely interacted with his child, not knowing how to parent and not even wanting a son. Smogcloud soon went missing a few weeks after Frostnose left and they never found him.

Runningkit began to get more violent tendencies due to his early trauma and started to lash out and yell at the other kits, which the queens despised him for. He didn't like being hated and feared, but that's just how it ended up for him.

### Apprenticeship

Runningpaw was apprenticed to a warrior named Mapledawn who just wanted to help him, but Runningpaw refused to respect him and only listened when they trained. You can tell everyone really hates Runningpaw right now.

Runningpaw was really giving his mentor a hard time one day and Mapledawn had just about had it, so he yelled at him and lashed out in a blind rage. Mapledawn felt really bad when he saw that he had scratched Runningpaw's nose. He quietly sent Runningpaw to the medicine den and talked to the leader, in which they decided to temporarily exile Runningpaw after he was healed to make him learn his lesson.

### Exile Life

Runningpaw was now even more angry and wandered around the territories since he wasn't very familiar with them. He was chased out of ThunderClan territory after he stumbled upon a patrol and found a place to rest near the ShadowClan border.

An apprentice named Carnationpaw found him sleeping near a rotting log while on her walk and being the kind cat she was, asked him what he was doing politely. He hissed at her like the pile of crap he is and told her to shut up and go away, but Carnationpaw persisted and she caught some prey for him, which he grudgingly took.

He ended up starting to get less and less hesitant to see her and they became somewhat friends. Even after Runningpaw was found after a search patrol for him came to get him, they still continued to meet at the border and both apprentices were made warriors.

### Warrior Life

Runningrapid still continued to meet Carnationcall and started to hate the fluttery feeling he got in his belly when he saw her. That fluttery feeling would sometimes swarm his mind like a fleet of butterflies and he'd do random sporadic nice things for her, such as giving her prey, or a flower, or just generally being nice. It overwhelmed him at times, but he didn't really want it to stop.

Carnationcall was the one to suggest becoming mates. Runningrapid was a bit surprised but was eager to agree, if it meant making her happy. He was addicted to her and the relationship, since he hadn't had it before, and he'd probably do anything for her at that point.

His addiction to the relationship escalated and he became a bit more possessive and manipulative, convincing her to spend more time sneaking away from camp instead of catching up with her friends, or sometimes even forcing her to. Carnationcall finally got tired of it after like two moons and confronted him, which made Runningrapid angry because the relationship had started morphing into something he didn't like.

In the heat of the moment Carnationcall accidentally spilled the beans that she was expecting kits and Runningrapid was mortified. He quickly broke off the relationship and cut ties with Carnationcall. At a Gathering about one and a half moons later Carnationcall pulled him aside and said he was going to take one of the kits. Carnationcall didn't ever tell him why and just forced him to take a random baby, but the real reason was that she thought maybe the parenting would make them bond again. Which, well, failed horribly.

Runningrapid, like he did with Carnationcall, took his son Mothkit and cut ties with him, giving him to a random queen to name and take care of. When Mothkit was a moon away from becoming an apprentice, Carnationcall lied to her leader saying she was going on a walk and went to WindClan, to see her son. She lied to the WindClan leader and said her leader had sent her to deliver a message, but in reality it was just for Mothkit.

When she learned about an hour later that Runningrapid had not been involved in Mothkit's life at all, she lashed out, calling him "Run-away" and spilling the beans that Mothkit, and his sisters in ShadowClan were his children. Everyone was outraged at him and Carnationcall as well as Mothkit but luckily the leader took pity on him and let him stay in WindClan.

Eventually Mothkit became Mothpaw and then Mothstream, but Runningrapid didn't care. He just mostly sulked and raged at people and himself all day and only did duties and other things because he had to. He didn't even bat an eye with Mothstream moved to ShadowClan to be with his sisters and mother.

Now Runningrapid is just like the most disliked cat in WindClan. Wonderful.
