I DON'T CARE IF WE DON'T SLEEP AT ALL TONIGHT LET'S JUST FIX THIS WHOLE THING NOW
NAME... Sparrowspots
AGE... 31 moons old
GENDER... Male
CLAN... CheetahClan
POSITION... Deputy
SPECIES... Cheetah
APPEARANCE...Sparrowspots has a compact head, complete with long whiskers, small ears and orange, amber colored eyes. His most distinguishable markings are spots next to his left eye that trail down so close together, they look like a solid line. His body is blond, with small, closely packed spots speckling through out. His chin, neck and underbelly are white. He has scruffy, longer fur around his underbelly and at the back of his spine which can also be seen as a slightly less noticeable distinguishable fact. Sparrowspots has powerful, thin legs that help propel him during a hunt. His legs are covered in spots, save for his back paws, which are socked, or otherwise known as free of markings. His long, slim tail also helps. The spots on his tail gradually transform into stripes the closer you get to the tip. Also at the end, you will find a white tail tuft of fur.
PERSONALITY...Sparrowspots is one of the most loyal cheetahs that you will ever meet, no doubt about it. Maybe it has something to do with being deputy, and how that has shaped him into an even more outstanding member of the clan, but the fact is that Sparrowspots was born with that streak of loyalty inside his bones. He will stick up for his clan with all that he has, and if that sometimes calls for being ferocious, Sparrowspots is all game. He can be loud and agressive when needed to get the point across to someone less than willing, and he's not afraid of violence and if he has to bare his teeth every blue moon. But that's not to say that he isn't loving. Sparrowspots does his best to keep his angry side to a minimum and always display compassion. He is not afraid of love; he just knows not to give it away. And once you get passed the tough, awkward exterior, you'll see that he is understanding- at least when it comes to certain things. For example, he'll understand if a young warrior goes on a stroll and loses track of time. He was that age once. But he won't be so understanding when he finds a rival cat on his territory. It's really common knowledge though that he's tolerant to a degree. Sparrowspots is also extremely stubborn, honest and opinionated; he will always get his point across, one way or another, if it's through unspoken body language or blunt words. He also has that self-reliant attitude, where if you want it done right the first time, do it yourself. He always has to make sure things are right, and sometimes it gets to him and tires him out, where someone will have to step in and tell him to cool down and take a break. But he thinks that his work is never done, and that is what makes him such a good deputy. When cats do step in, he is very appreciative. Deep down, he knows that he can't do it all by himself. And he's fine with that, as long as someone gets it done.
HISTORY...Over three decades ago, Sparrowkit was born to two warriors, both in CheetahClan. He had a good life from the start, being pure-bred and all. His parents were liked well enough, and soon enough it was out of the nursery and into the apprentice's den for the newly named Sparrowpaw. His mentor was a senior warrior named Firefur, known mainly for his hearty personality and his quick sprints. Firefur could take down an antelope easily and he soon passed this down to young Sparrowpaw. Sparrowpaw also proved himself to be capable in combat as well. He was shaping into a fine warrior, molded and pushed every day by his mentor. Until one day when Firefur ceased to live anymore. Killed by a rogue feline while protecting CheetahClan's borders, since he had never been one of the clan's best fighters, Sparrowpaw's mentor died a valiant hero because he keep trying, pushing, and he never gave up. And although Firefur never knew, he instilled one last lesson to his third apprentice: to never lose sight of what was most important. Because Sparrowpaw was not done with his training yet, a new mentor was appointed to him- a gangly, air headed warrior, still a child at heart, and blatantly obvious how ill of a fit Sparrowpaw was to her. Her name was Blackbrindle, and Sparrowpaw thought that he taught her more than she would ever teach a soul. He felt disgusted that she was Flamefur's successor. Knowing that Flamefur would always be with him, and that he was the instrumental part of turning him into a great warrior, Sparrowpaw went into his warrior's ceremony with a head held high for Flamefur. As a warrior, Sparrowspots never forgot the journey it took to get him to where he was today. His shining moment as a warrior came when a TigerClan patrol was caught stealing prey and disregarding all clan borders. Sparrowspots was leading the patrol that stopped them. A quick attack by CheetahClan left the TigerClan cats with little dignity and bloodied scratches. While CheetahClan hadn't fared much better, it was clear Sparrowspots' patrol had defeated them. One warrior was badly hurt, and Sparrowspots' decision to stay with the wounded warrior and send an apprentice for help back at camp played a key role a few moons later when it came time for CheetahClan's newly appointed leader to choose a fresh deputy, and Echostar chose him.
