``SUMMARY ::
from head to toe, riddle is the most basic and completely-average cat you can imagine. he has a normally-sized torso, normally long legs and tail, and typical ears and paws. however, when meeting riddle for the first time no cat would ever call him normal. the most outstanding feature he possesses is his claws. they are extremely large, a genetic anomaly that makes it nearly impossible for them to retract. riddle keeps these claws sharp and is happy to use them whenever any cat presents him with a problem. the next point of interest that others may note about riddle is that he stands, sits, walks, and even sleeps with the most confident and controlling air. every cat knows he is in charge, and would never doubt it in the least. his voice is gruff and curt, matching his serious appearance. riddle's eyes are a chilling ice-silver that can penetrate and intimidate the souls of any cat that suffer under them.

• idiocy or cats who cannot see logic
• weakness
• losing
``FEARS ::
• as a sociopathic tom he feels no fear
``SKILLS ::
• very intelligent
• stays detached and makes no emotional connections
``OVERALL ::
riddle is a cat of assertive confidence and power. he craves the control he has gained over the moons and would not sacrifice his place for all that he could win. the best way to describe riddle is sociopath. the only thing in his mind that he sees value in is his own success. he lacks the empathetic center of the brain that allows him to feel for or connect with other cats. when riddle sees the sufferings of another, he feels no pain or remorse simply because he cannot connect to them, and he is liable to laugh or find the pain amusing for any number of reasons. riddle cannot understand how others are so clingy and needy in the emotions and connections of others, and finds love and relationships in general to be tiresome. some would argue that without a heart, leading a clan would be extremely difficult as it would give a lack of mercy. riddle does allow mercy to his darkness, only it is very strategic and done with great thought. he would never act without first weighing his options and determining the best course of action. his thirst for blood may be satisfied in punishment, but he is not a glutton for it, as being overly bloody lacks tact and reason.

``SIBLINGS ::

``BIRTH CLAN ::
boneclan
``HISTORY ::
riddle was a kit given to young queen astral and mate mortimer, to be brought up in boneclan and raised alongside little caroline. the two kits seemed to be polar opposites. memory was weak and sickly, with little going for her. she was prone to catching any sickness that was spread, fell into lapses of seizures, and was always weakly coughing and struggling for air. riddle, on the other hand, was a child prodigy. his parents called him their little gift. he was brave, powerful, and yet full of great wisdom. he always went out of his way to care for his sister, offering her ever ounce of love in his body and trying to keep her well and happy. now, before you ask how he could love her without empathy, i say to you that this was not love he felt. instead, he chose to feel that she deserved a proper life, and offered her love even without feeling it.
riddle was born to be a leader and a claw-cat. he trained long and hard, working himself as much as he could. growing up fighting, he slowly developed his large and dangerous claws. they were the cause of many a young cat's death, and with each killing he found that he could only gain respect and appreciation. a devilish plan hatched in his mind. the current boneclan leader, a tom named marcus, had grown so powerful and waded so deeply into pools of blood that he had begun to make enemies within the clan as he executed families and innocents to make examples in front of other cats. he let the claw-cats act out and fight often, in public clan areas, and there were injured casualties of all sorts. seeing his opportunity, riddle struck out. he spent two moons, from thirteen to fifteen, making friends and bringing up a mutinous band of fighters.
marcus did not last long, and as riddle slit his throat in a massive battle, he claimed the rightful title after the other claw-cats had killed the second-in-command. marcus loved death and suffering, but in truth, he had been too weak and frightened to fight for himself. riddle was now a favorite among most cats, and he ran out those who opposed him first instead of killing them. proudly, the tom took charge of boneclan and at fifteen moons became the new leader. others did try to defeat the young and what they supposed would be naive leader, but were unsuccessful. with still-loyal claw-cats and his own clever mind, he was able to stamp out any attempts at taking his new throne early. upon reaching eighteen moons, he declared that boneclan should look to the other clans and watch them, learning, absorbing some of their ways as they had always desired to belong. he took upon himself the title of 'riddle star' as his own way of trying to copy the other great clans. now that he has control over his own clan, it is all he can do to fight the urge to try and conquer greater lands and reach greater heights.
