Character Bio Sheet

Silverclaw


You see before you a tall handsome panther of about 25 years of age. He stands at about 10 feet high on strong muscular digigrade legs. His eyes are as green as spring leaves with yellow flecks in them. Rounded ears peek through tousled black hair that is kept reletively short. He definitely has his mother's good looks and has inherited some of her features like the white whiskers framing his muzzle and an intense gaze that seems to look into the very heart of your being.
You bring your gaze lower to view his body which he keep partially hidden by clothing. His barrel chest is muscular with out being overly so and so is his taut stomach. He wears only a silver and black vest to cover his upper half. His arms are thick and strong, the muscles can be seen rippling beneath his silken pelt. His hands are large and paw like. On his left hand is a simple gold ring which was given to him by his mother.
Around his waist to help hold up his pants is a silver chain belt made from the local silver smith. His pants are the type that poof out around his legs to obscure the view of them, but you can tell by his stride that even they are strong and well muscled. He does not wear shoes as he believe, like his mother did, that one should feel the earth beneath the paws. Flowing out from an obligatiry hole in the back of his pants is his six foot long tail which like his mother has a white tip on it, and it also sways from side to side displaying his emotions to all. When you get a closer lok at him you can see he has the trade mark silvery-grey claws of his ancestors on his hands and feet. Covering his entire body is the blackest fur anyfur can have. So black, it has dark blue highlights in the sun. He peers at you as you take in his appearnce then bows respectfully as a leader should.

Background:Yaneh Silverclaw is the son of Sabbath Silverclaw and her mate Jass. He was born while the Temple of Bast was being built and the foundations of Castle Silverclaw were being set. He raised knowing that one day he was going to lead in Sabbath's place and help rebuild the Silverclaw line. When he turned five, civil war broke out between the town that didn't worship Bast when Bastet tried to take over. It was during this time his father died, leaving just him and Sabbath to carry on.
Silverclaw and his mother mourned the loss of Jass, but continued on, even after the civil war ended, leaving many of the towns in ruins. Much rebuilding was done to where only faint scars are left behind. Silverclaw helped as much as he could with the building around Cat's Haven, leaving him with a well toned and sleek body and strength any teenager would love to have. When he reached 16, he went to join the guards to learn how to handle a sword and fight in preparation of taking over when the time came. During this time, most of his extended family left so the only Silverclaws that remained were him, Sabbath, She-Dow and her family, the rest parted for calmer valleys to to live.
Silverclaw's education in the ways of the sword ended with a more formal education in some magic and higher learning, all of which he picked up quickly enough. The day after he turned 22, his mother and Shy-Dow left mysteriously in the night, with only a message telling him to run things until their return. He's searched everyday since then to find them and bring them home to stay once more. During his searches, he found a lioness by the name of Julie, who he fell in love with and married. He's stopped his searching for his mother to care for Julie and see to her comfort, but he still keeps the town of Cat's Haven running smoothly.
Since Sabbath's return, Silverclaw has become the rightful lord of Cat's Haven. though his duties haven't changed, he seems to feel the weight of his position. During his first year of being the rightful lord, his mate, Julie fell ill with a sickness which couldn't be cured with magic and needed rare herbs. Before his mother could gather what she needed, Julie passed away, leaving the big panther grieving. He continues to grieve for his lost mate, but as time goes by, he begins to put his life back together and move on.
Misc Info:He knows some magic, but when he was a cub in Sabbath's arms, she made sure he'd always be protected. This bit of magic only works when he comes into some kind of life threatening danger and reacts only according to the situation. Otherwise, he is a friendly easy going fur who is fun to be around. he inherited his mother's fun-loving spirit and therefor loves to pounce his friends unexpectedly. He isn't easily swayed or bribed, but a good scritching can get anyone far with him. If he suspects he's being bribed with scritches, he'll suddenly go cold and responsive, it's his nature. But, he will retaliate with his mother's patented tickle-torture technique, fun to watch, but not so fun to experience.
Religion:All and yet, none
