## Overview

Anil is a former power cat with the power of mindless tendril. He is also the former healer of BloodClan.

### Appearance

Before death He was a hairless pinkish tom with brown spotting sparsely scattered around and roots tangling around his skin and where his scars were orginally

VOID FORM

to the living he's nothing but pure shadow with white cracks of where his tendrils fell out of his skin, black shadowy illusions of his tendrils, which still haunts him till the day after death. his eyes are pure white with hints of lime radiating off his eyes, he is seen frowning with dull red splashes around his fur on where his old scarring would be.

### Personality

Anil became a very wise yet paranoid tom, he often tries to do what's best even and has many regrets, he can be seen reflecting often and dissociating even when cats talk to him. he use to be rude and selfish but now all he is a shell of his former self, suffering the consequences he had in his life. He is now seen reflecting in the void and trying to find ways to send messages to his friends and family promising them that he still watches over them.

### Power

Power Details:

Tendrils laced with nonlethal yet itchy poison vines that can vary between sizes. The smallest being a pebbles width the largest being a branch width, which reaches around 5ft. They have leaves surrounding the bases that can fall and if it's stepped on it will cause small rashes.

Tendrils can also split off of the tendrils growing on Anil and grow separately as bushes. These tendrils can grow to the size of smaller bushes and attach onto living bushes. These affected bushes will be maroon/brown shaded with thorns. Removing the tendrils will cause the cat to be affected with hives.

These tendrils can also affect smaller herb patches and small rodents, birds and fish. The life span of the tendrils that grow off of Anil is three days before shriveling up but can be "revived" in the presence of Anil for up to two weeks after their initial "death".

When Anil is within a 5-meter radius of the tendrils, they will grow faster and infect other plants quicker. Under the constant presence of Anil, they can grow to have the strength to infect larger things sch as regular size rodents, birds, and even kits. The tendrils growing off of himself will also grow faster when around the detached ones.

*Tendril Poison Effects:*

* prey will become feverous, twitchy and a high chance of death.
* cats will become fatigued, twitchy with elevated fevers. if cats consume infected prey, the effects will be stronger and cause extreme stomach discomfort.
* plants and herbs will begin to rot and wither, and their healing effectiveness will diminish.

Drawbacks:

Fast metabolism is one of the general drawbacks but a more worrying one is fur starts to fall out. At first, it'll start from his tail and muzzle, and it'll go further down to the back and legs. The skinless area gets mild bumpy hives. The more tendrils he summons the more parts of his fur will fall out and the more severe the hives get!

* during periods of drought, the wild tendrils will grow slower.
* tendrils will not completely disappear from Anil.
* tendrils also grow under the skin instead of above causing generalized pain and discomfort from wherever they are growing.
* after power time is over, the tendrils will rip out/off the skin and Anil will need immediate emergency care as well as long term healing and permanent scarring and pain.
