Snailpath

**Snailpath** is a black and white cat with gold eyes.

**Snailpath** was born as **Snailkit** to Furledshade.

## Appearance

Snailpath is a large, black and white, scruffy short-haired tomcat with eyes of molten gold. He has small, perked ears alongside rather small paws. With quite the disheveled appearance, he often has plentiful leaves decorating his broadened physique. Whiskers are short, well-kept and often dewy from the rainwater and droplets of the waters that end up caught on them.

## Personality

Authenticated in every way, Snailpath finds that there is no purpose or reason in hiding himself and who he is away from anyone. He knows his place in the world, the skillset he adorns, and makes everyone around him acknowledge that potential he has to become someone even greater. He takes in the world at large, and finds there shouldn’t be anything holding him back from experiencing life with nothing holding him back. He encourages and indulges in reckless rebellion, sees no wrong in going against the rules, and wholeheartedly believes that breaking the boundaries is the only way to live life as intended.

He enjoys lending others a helping paw at any time. When meeting anyone for the first time, he promises well-formed companionship and always being of assistance when needed. Though having well-intentioned anyone he meets, involving those into anything he does and showing them his perspective of life fuels his need to be the heroic cat in the eyes of everyone he meets. Having become borderline obsessed with being the brightest star, he always goes out of his way to make himself the prime example, to always be in the front lines and be the voice of reason, even going out of line just for the positive or negative limelight being directly on him.

Snailpath never needed the approval of others around him—there isn’t any point in searching for it if he can gain it with the right tactics. He’s confident that the cats he meets wouldn’t push him aside, for he makes his presence known in their lives even if he comes off as obnoxious. There is nothing to hide of himself, not one insecurity that is hidden underneath the surface as they are dismissed as easily as they arrive. He thrives in his own attention, basks in his own greatness. Though unsaid to come across as humbled, he believes himself to be superior in everything and anything he does. Criticism falls on deaf ears, and notes on improvement from others are pointedly ignored. He is confident in what he knows, and there isn’t anything or anyone that is going to prove him otherwise.

Running through life for the thrill and adrenaline, he never had to focus much on any other complex emotions, making any viewpoints voiced aloud and general opinions about certain things seem rather shallow in comparison to how anyone else would give their commentary about particular things. Snailpath surprisingly believes in simplicity, that things are easier than they seem if looked at from a different angle or done a certain type of way. He believes life is easy, believing the struggles one goes through are easily solved solutions that are better said than done. He doesn’t feel much, therefore he often has a hard time distinguishing how he feels, but he never dwelled on this tidbit regarding himself as a cat, believing there wouldn’t be a time to really care about how he feels and reacts to others when he can routinely follow how to form crafted connections and disregarding the deep aspects of things.

Snailpath believes he has life all figured out. However, such blissful ignorance to the intricacies of the world, cats, and himself around him is not something that would last for long.
