**APPEARANCE**

```
Palestar is what is referred to as a 'chimera cat,' a cat whose cells contain two types of DNA, caused when two embryos fuse together. This is evident in how Palestar has patches of both black and gray fur. These patches can only be found on his face, while the rest of his body is solid, snow white with the sole exception of his tail which has ticks of gray along the center. Beneath his fur is a lean, well taken care of body. He stands tall, above the height of the average feline, but not so much to be overly intimidating. His eyes are a brillant, deep ocean blue color which are often set in a disgruntled expression.

**PERSONALITY**

```
Overall, Palestar is as his name may suggest; a rather solitary and cold tom. He likes to spend the majority of his time by his lonesome, whether that being in his den or on a tree, overlooking a border or the lake itself. It isn’t often that he finds himself being overly social with anyone unless it is absolutely required of him. He is, however, a natural leader in his own right... Which is actually what earned him his current position. The reason why he prefers time alone is because that is time for him to think. To ponder or wonder about decisions for the future, present or even the past. Given his family history, Palestar had grown acustomed to having to look to himself for answers, which is why he chooses to do this over asking his clan.

```

```
While he may not hold especially close relations with those around him, he does take the lead on patrols and enforce his decisions given to the clan without any hesitation… He’s quick to make tough decisions, and rarely regrets just what that decision was. With that in mind, however, he is also very stoic. There are no instances where he isn’t the first to charge into battle or to say what needs to be said to any particular audience… This includes his own family. It wasn’t unheard of him to speak out against their actions despite their blood relations.

```

```
On that note, however, Palestar is capable of building close relationships with people on the basis of trust and loyalty. Given the circumstances of his leadership, that is hard to come by, but when he does find someone he's more comfortable talking to, he may be more… Talkative, to say the least. He’ll converse with others or offer his own personal input. It's almost as though he becomes 'awkward.' Is he still blunt? Absolutely. Can that perceived in the wrong way? Yes... But it is never with ill intent. Otherwise, he speaks in a professional, respectful manner in most any other case.

```

**GULLWATCHER** (♂) [Ana] // son // alive // Thunderclan
* "Their love had crossed our borders... It was something that I could not follow him with, but I hope that he's happy in Thunderclan, and that they can grow to understand why their forbidden love was not something I could allow in Shadowclan."

**MAPLEFROST** (♀) [Medic] // daughter // deceased // Starclan

**SHELLSTAR** (♀) [Lithey] // leader // alive // Riverclan
