-Character-
Name: _{Valleykit |} Valleypaw
[Valley] - For his quiet, relaxed temperament. 
          [Paw] - Apprentice Status
Clan: TideClan
Age: 10 moons
Rank: Apprentice
Gender: Male (dmab)
Breed: Mixed
Appearance details: Large, sturdily built tom even by warrior standards. Big paws. He has long grey fur across whole body, though it's particularly thick along his neck and tail (good for snagging claws and preventing damage).  Muzzle and paws are patches of black and white, and has unique striping on hind quarters and base of tail. Few fresh scars on muzzle from a rabbit. 

-History-
Mother: Birdspot
Father: Clawstrike
Littermates: 2 open, have designs/names ready if desired

Kit: Valleypaw was large even as a kit, bigger at birth than his two siblings, though he quickly learned not to toss his weight around as much as the other two did. A large portion of the conflict between TideClan and QuakeClan had passed by then, with arranged territories for both clans, and TideClan was already settling in to their new home. Valleypaw was too young to understand the heaviness that still hung in the air at times.

Apprentice: Valleypaw, now an apprentice, does do his best do fulfill his duties and learn to be a warrior, despite his lax personality. He wants nothing more than to protect the Clan, and this is the best way to do that. More TBA as mentor is decided.
 

-About-
Personality:

 Easy-going - Valleypaw is not one to get riled up quickly, and generally tries to keep a relaxed demeanor despite stresses. He's not one to fuss over minor details, and keeps a level head in almost all situations. Easy to get along with and friendly because of this, definitely one to make more friends than enemies.

 Protective - Valleypaw would rather put himself on the line than another, whether that be in arguments and scoldings or in combat. He will defend anyone he is loyal to, both friends and any clanmates, even viciously if it comes to that.

 Gentle giant - Valleypaw's size and build make him rather intimidating and mistaken for a warrior frequently, and his scars don't help his appearance. Any clan member would know how friendly the tom is though, frequently seen playing with the kits in his spare time and happy to be put on duty to feed the elders. He is a good dude.

 Combat avoidant - Despite being built for battle, Valleypaw is not one to fight unless absolutely necessary or to protect another. He will search for the peaceful solution, even if warrior code states fighting is the better option in the situation. This can keep better relations between him and outsider cats, which can be good or bad, as well as leave him more susceptible to being manipulated, though he takes some time to sway.

 Thoughtful - Most of Valleypaw's lax nature comes from thoughtfulness more than anything else. He prefers to think things over before acting, and will rarely act out rashly. He can overthink at times, but usually he's pretty good about coming to a decision without much trouble.

 Inexpressive- Valleypaw has a big heart, yes, but he's not the best at expressing it. He tends to handle most things rather stoically, but will make an effort, especially among friends, to try to joke or express his feelings more. Usually though the attempts end up being rather awkward and unintentionally silly.

 Blunt - His quiet nature is mostly due to him not being the best at expressing himself thoughtfully- despite how much he, well, is. He doesn't talk unnecessarily, and what words do come out of his mouth can be a little harsh at times, despite him meaning the best. 

 Pushover - Though he properly guards himself around outsider cats, with clan members he's easily swayed to whatever views a fellow clan-mate may have if they work to convince him. He has only a select few things he has strict views about, and those he will defend, but he tends to be pretty lax about everything else. Known for doing apprentice duties for other apprentices who don't want to do them.

 Lazy - Despite how much Valleypaw likes helping others, he also does tend to laze about when given the opportunity, and can be a little slow overall. If given the opportunity to nap, he will nap. Prone to sleeping in past when he's supposed to be up.

Aspirations and Motivations: Wants to protect his life and loved ones. 
Outlook on life/Motto: He's got a good outlook on life, and tends to value himself as a way to defend others more than actually valuing what he himself does.
Afterlife opinion: Believes in StarClan, and even though he'd rather not now, not afraid to give up his life and go there.
Warrior code opinion: Valleypaw is a little more... lax about it than some cats, though this is something mentors can change as well.
