apperance...
{the build}
Blizzardkit isn't really like most tigers, she is actually very underweight. Suffering from malnutrition because of not eating, she looks like skin and bones, with a bit of fur on her of course. This young tiger kit stands at about 12 inches tall, growing slowly taller until she reaches her full height, which will be around 34 inches tall. As for weight, it's estimated to be below 28 pounds, very light for a bengal tiger cub. When she grows, she will weigh around 296 pounds. Blizzardkit was born the runt of the litter, she doesn't have a very large physical build either. She's tiny, petite, but with enough muscles to make her very swift and decently strong. When she's well-fed and stronger, she'll be very quick. Though she most likely won't be strong enough to fight off anyone, in addition to her sightless eyes, she'll be able to run very quickly and escape nearly anything.
{the fur}
Blizzardkit's fur isn't very special from most other tigers, except for that she has the mutant white tiger gene from the bengal tiger. Her parents were both mutated white, and they produced her, the strange white bengal tiger. Blizzardkit. She has snow white fur, thus why she is named Blizzardkit, because her fur is as white as the snow in the winter. Blizzardkit hasn't ever seen the snow, she won't ever see the snow. Blizzardkit's fur also is stained with many long, sleek onyx black stripes. No two stripes on her back are the same, it's the same with every other tiger, nothing special there. Blizzardkit's fur is actually very thick, it's so dense that it'll keep her warm from blizzards or wind storms. However, when it gets wet, it doesn't dry very easily and she usually is in a terrible mood when she gets wet. Her body gets cold and wracked with shivers when she's soaked. She doesn't like swimming because of this either.
{the sensitive lungs}
Blizzardkit's lungs are another weakness that she has, besides her blindness. They are slightly smaller than they should be, which makes it very hard for her to breathe when she's physically exerting herself. Because of this, it's hard for Blizzardkit to really do much work without having to stop and lay down so she can try to catch her breath to breathe. This really takes a chunk out of what she can do. Blizzardkit doesn't yet know about this lung disorder, though she will find out soon enough, when she starts trying to prove herself. She will come to find that that will be a bad idea. Though this doesn't have much to do with her outer exterior, inside it has a huge effect on her life, especially within TigerClan, so this is a very important part of her.
{the supernatural senses}
Yet another thing that doesn't have much impact on her physical appearance, on the inside this is something that is very, very important about Blizzardkit. As mentioned above, Blizzardkit's eyes never brought her sight, as she is blind. But because she has been born without one of her senses, she has extra strong senses everywhere else. First of all, she's extremely sensitive to touch. Even the slightest tough on her fur, she can feel. Depending on the person, it could make her fur prickle and her teeth bare somewhat, or she could lean into the other creature. Next is her sense of taste. Blizzardkit doesn't really have supernatural taste, but she's definitely a picky eater. On her rough pink tongue, there's more tastebuds, or more sensitive tastebuds, than most. She'll only eat certain things. As for smell, she can smell things from a long ways away, further than most tigers can. Her hearing is the same way. Even the slightest movement she can hear. It makes her an excellent hunter... or would, if she could run for very long. Unfortunately, that is a skill unavailable to Blizzardkit.
{the sightless eyes}
Blizzardkit's eyes are unlike any other. They are considered a burden and a weakness to her clan. However, Blizzardkit knows they only make her stronger. When she was old enough for her eyes to open, they opened wide, but they weren't the normal dark golden brown of most normal tigers. Instead, they were a bright, icy blue. They were clouded over and when they opened, they brought her no sight. Her parents, which she only vaguely remembers, were shocked and muttered weird things about her, which she picked up with her excellent hearing. Blizzardkit isn't neccessarily proud of her eyes, though she isn't ashamed of them either. Though, it is a big down side to not have been able to see anybody important to her. Not her mother, not her father, not her siblings, nobody. That's the way it will always be. She'll never be able to see the light in her future mate's eyes, she'll never be able to see her beautiful cubs (if she's ever going to have any), or even her own leader. It's all a mystery, a guessing game of what they look like. And that's hard on a cub.
{overall, she looks like this}
Blizzardkit is basically just a beautiful little bengal tiger cub. She's got ivory white fur and onyx black stripes. Her nose is a light pink and the back of her ears are black with the exception of a large white spot on each one. Blizzardkit is very small, being underweight and suffering from malnutrition. Her claws and teeth are short and sharp still. Blizzardkit has clouded, icy blue eyes that can not see anything, no matter how close or far. On the inside, her lungs are smaller than usual and her senses, all except for sight, are extremely sharp.

personality...
{quiet, shy, reserved}
Blizzardkit has never been one to speak a lot. Most of the time, her mouth is shut, the muscles relaxed and not moving to speak. She has always been like this, ever since her parents abandoned her not long ago. Once upon a time, she was a more cheerful, happy tiger, but now this is what she's left with. Blizzardkit doesn't talk much, she prefers to listen, especially since her hearing is spectacular and she has trouble speaking for more than a few words. When it comes to strangers, Blizzardkit isn't a fan. She meets someone and she leaves them. They'll never have a part in her life, right? Because of her parents, she believes that nothing good ever lasts, which makes her a very skeptical, pessimistic cat. Blizzardkit doesn't ever really talk to strangers, she'll speak a few words if she has to but for the most part she's just quiet. Even when someone does earn the respect and liking of Blizzardkit, she doesn't talk much, she's scared to open up. She has trust issues, so she's very hard to crack and everyone else knows that. However, it is possible to get inside of her and when that happens she becomes almost a completely different tiger. Few people will ever get to see this side.
{pessimistic, skeptical, doesn't trust easily}
It's all because of her parents. The tigers, who were forced to leave Blizzardkit behind for the sake of themselves, left a huge scar on Blizzardkit. Not physically, actually she has no scars at all on the outside. But on the inside, she's got a long, deep wound. It's left her a pessimist, meaning that she is a realist. She looks at things like they really are, without any creativity or changing. This makes her look at love differently, too. To her, love doesn't exist. Good things don't last. They don't end unless they end badly. They're all sayings that she goes by. True or not true, she's skeptical about many things besides love. Another one is trust, which hardly any cat gains when it comes to her. Nobody she's met has stayed in her life, why should she trust another? She's only three months old, but it's as if she carries the whole world on her shoulders.
{carries the world on her shoulders, stressed}
Blizzardkit has been stressed ever since her parents left her. It's not that bad right now, since she's only three months old, but it still feels to her like she's got the whole world on her shoulders. She has to try to get food for herself, try to find a place to sleep at night, try to keep away from danger... It's a hard life for Blizzardkit already. Constantly, she's stressed with bad thoughts haunting her mind. When she's without someone that she has respect for, or trusts, she's always sad, to an extend, and a tad bit depressed. Over half the time, Blizzardkit just needs a hug. She needs someone to talk to her, to keep her happy, to keep her satisfied. Of course, that isn't going to happen, not for a while anyway. It takes at least a few moons for her to grow a relationship with someone, another half a moon for her to admit to herself that she trusts them. Even though that's what she needs, she won't allow it. She doesn't want to be scarred again. Blizzardkit won't cry, either. She won't allow herself to be weak, she has to stay strong. She knows she's a burden as she is, she can't have weak links. However, not letting her emotions show can also be a weakness.
{smart, wants importance, tries hard}
Secretly, Blizzardkit is very smart. Slowly but surely, she learned the ways of survival after her parents left. Actually, she may not have learned the right way, but she's trying the best she can. Blizzardkit is a very quick learner, she'll pick up on something quicker than most. It's because she listens closely and even though she can't see, she can easily visualize things and she sticks all the information in her head. Also, it's because she tries really hard. All Blizzardkit really wants is to be of importance to the Clan, to everyone really. Maybe if she was better, not so big of a burden, they'd accept her for who she was and actually let her participate in being apart of the Clan. She doesn't like her weaknesses and sometimes all she wants is to be wanted. This is why she tries so hard to be so smart. Maybe she can make up for her weakness.
{secretly kind, gentle, loving}
Like mentioned above, Blizzardkit is a hard one to crack. However, also mentioned above, it says that it is possible if she's exposed to someone enough. When she does crack, it's almost as if Blizzardkit is a whole different person. First off, she won't be quiet and reserved anymore. She'll put herself out there and not be afraid to speak, though she still doesn't speak enough to ever be considered annoying. Also, she's very kind and easy to love. Blizzardkit does actually care for people, actually to the extent that she would lay down her life for them. However, she isn't much of a battle cat, so it's doubted that she'll ever fight as a warrior. She's also very gentle. Subtle and soft, she always is calm and collected, almost mother like. In fact, she would be a good mother, but it might not ever happen, she might not open herself up enough to find a mate. But, she is very easy to love. She'd be a good lover. She cares, she doesn't ever lie, she is protective, she loves with all she's got. All she needs is someone to bring this out in her, someone that she could love.
{overall, she's sort of like this}
Blizzardkit is just a really quiet and reserved cub. She's pessimistic and skeptical, seeing things for what they really are and nothing less. Most of the time, she's very stressed and feels like she's got the whole world on her shoulders. She doesn't cry or show weakness, as she knows she's already a burden as it is. Blizzardkit is a very hard egg to crack, nobody really knows how to get inside of her, break her shell and put her walls down long enough for them to get inside. But secretly, Blizzardkit is a genius and just wants to be wanted. She's really sweet and gentle, never wanting to cause harm. Really, she's just an undiscovered sweetheart without someone to love.

history...
{the birth of a blind girl}
Blizzardkit was born as just Blizzard only three short months ago. Her parents were both large white tigers who had the typical tiger story. They met on a long strip of land and just bred, with her mother being in heat and the day being so perfect. They weren't really bound together by love, they were bound together by cubs. In fact her father didn't stick around for her mother's pregnancy, he left and returned when it was birthing season. Not that it made much a difference. Her father hunted a little bit for her mother and her mother mainly supported herself, making sure to keep herself healthy and free of any sickness or hunger. She had 2 cubs, both white tiger cubs and both females. The only thing was, the first one was stillborn and the second was blind, though at the time she couldn't tell that. Blizzardkit's mother was sad for the stillborn, ashamed of the runt. The two tigers creation had turned to be a flop. However, she was still bonded to the cub and no matter how many times Blizzard's father denied that she would live, her mother was constant in caring for her.
{open the eyelids}
For the first few weeks of her life, Blizzard was silent. Her ears and eyes were still shut, so she was nearly lifeless. All she did was drink her mother's milk and sleep. She was so boring in fact that her mother was even sick of her. However, it was when her ear drums opened up and she could hear that Blizzard tested out her voice. The sound amused her, so she would not stop talking. It was very obnoxious, and quite annoying. But she was silenced when she finally opened her eyes. She could feel them open physically, but all she saw was black, a dark abyss surrounding her in all directions. Her mother gasped, muttering something about how her cub would be useless. Blizzard was taken aback, so surprised that she fled to her father, who had the same reaction. Blizzard cried for a whole night, but her mother eventually told her that it was fine, that she was just a bit different than everyone else. That's also the night where her mother told her she wouldn't ever see the world. No bright, shining colors for her, no memories in color, no memories at all in fact. She would have no visual memory, she wouldn't ever see anything. And all the days that she anticipated seeing her mother, who she imagined to be beautiful, and her father, who she imaged to be a big, buff tiger that would protect them both from anything that tried to get to them. She'd never see that. Blizzard cried a lot more after that.
{food in the belly}
It was actually food that cause the disappearance of Blizzard's mother and father. Her mother was supporting her as usual, with her father popping in and out of her life like any other tiger would do. But there was one day where the prey just started getting scarcer, and scarcer, and scarcer. Blizzard's mother tried so hard to support them both, but it just wasn't possible. She had to abandon her one and only cub, the one that she had given up so much for. Now, she had to leave. So that's what she did. One night, while Blizzard was sleeping soundly, she got up and left, leaving the poor cub behind. Blizzard woke the next day and found that her parents were gone. That was where life became hard for the young cub. She had to try to fend for herself, try to fight for herself and keep herself alive. It was hard and she quickly became malnourished, being without the proper prey. Her teeth hadn't even set in enough to kill something. She was on her own. And she still is, except for the fact that she's a good member of TigerClan. But what's the difference?
