NAME... Mac
AGE... 36 moons
GENDER... male
CLAN... warrior
POSITION... LionClan
SPECIES... African Lion
APPEARANCE...Mac is huge in size and height, with his pelt rippling with muscles. His size often leaves him towering over others, even some tigers. If it wasn't his size, it was his strange white coat, that not even snow would help him blend in. His mane is mixture of darker grey to the whitest hair, with his large, rather short haired mane covering his ears, or rather lack of them. Mac's ears are rather chomped to the bit, and are small nubs with little bites around the edges. The strange mixture of size and color makes Mac stick out like a sore thumb. Sticking to the strange atmosphere around Mac, Mac has the thickest voice, with the strangest accent. Of course, those who know Mac, know that the lion was raised as a loner.
PERSONALITY...Mac is known as the background guy. The cat you don't recognize until he's breathing down your neck, which you smile sheepishly, turn to your friends and walk away, as the thought of this person disappears entirely. He moves with a silent grace, despite his size and build. In fact, most cats believe this cat is mute, because Mac would rather be seen not heard, and not many cats have heard a word from his lips. He is known to speak through nods and shaking of the head, or merely silence, that is often described as awkward.
Mac is shy and tries to avoid other cats, and merely watches conversations with people, envisioning himself in that group, but many people ignore him. He's a comrade, someone you know, but hardly someone you give a second thought to, especially since the 'incident'. In fact, by the description I've given you, you believe he is a gentle giant sort, a pacifist really.
With his brawn, comes brain but Mac isn't eager to show it. So he carefully ponders any question you give him, any statement and he thinks it over, trying to discover any undercover meaning. When the thought process is done, Mac usually answers with one word, maybe two, but never enough to finish an entire sentence.
Mac has a love for anything odd, or different. Perhaps coming from the odd predicaments he's always in, Mac often collects odd items, and stores them under a rocky cliff. Perhaps, this love for strange items, possessed him to refuse his warrior name and to keep his warrior name.
Of course, that's not to suggest Mac isn't a loyal clan cat. He is a rule-abider, true and true and whatever his leader says, goes. Even if Mac doubts the leader, or any higher ranking cat, he will do whatever they say. I think it's lack of confidence, perhaps scared that if he doesn't obey they'll kick him out of the clan. Nonetheless, he will do duty after duty after duty if the leader asked him to.
Although this lion seems aloof, and quiet, when Mac indulges into a conversation, Mac wears his heart on his sleeve, often exclaiming his emotions, never his thoughts. A conversation with Mac is often dizzying, as Mac is constantly changing like the rivers, one minute cool and collected, to over-flooding to shallow and dry.
HISTORY...Mac came from.. well no one knows. Just sitting inside of LionClan border, was this hulking white lion, bleeding from his back. Full grown, but horribly scarred, and on the verge of dying. With some pondering, the medicine cat helped to stop the bleeding. And when Mac awoke, although dizzy, he was moved into the medicine cat's den where he was treated. The leader and the deputy questioned him, but Mac had yet to utter a word, causing some rumors to run around the camp. Mac was an odd one, his coat, his size and sudden appearance. Mac finally spoke in the presence of the medicine cat, his apprentice and the leader. He didn't say much, but it was just enough. The leader allowed Mac to stay in the clan, and although his first few steps were awkward, Mac proved to be a great hunter and even better warrior. It came to the leader's attention to appoint Mac a warrior name, thus keeping him in LionClan, and away from the horrors that had compelled him to LionClan borders. But Mac declined this offer, almost cringing as he said so. That his name, was his name. He didn't want to change it. The leader obliged, and that was that. Of course, Mac is one of the ranks, but again, he is a background guy.
