PERSONALITY!!
↥ Attentive | Though Sedgepaw may seem detached and uninterested at times, he is actually always on alert, absorbing information like a sponge and applying it to later experiences. He is a bright young tom, and often notices things others haven't. Occasionally he'll do something for a clanmate, like saving a piece of their favorite prey when he finds that they're feeling down. Small kindnesses are Sedgepaw's specialty. He has an excellent memory for storing all the information he gathers when training, and is usually able to recall details from some time ago.
↤ Solemn | Serious as can be, Sedgepaw is exceptionally mature and completes every task handed to him to the best of his ability. He has a hard time understanding sarcasm as a result, and his sense of humor leaves some things to be desired. His main focus is on becoming the best warrior he can be, and distracting him from that goal is a hard feat to accomplish. He may get impatient and snappish with cats that don't take their duties seriously.
↧ Quick To Judge | While Sedgepaw usually thinks his decisions though, he may jump to conclusions when confronted with new cats. He is highly critical and scans them for anything he may find as an epitome of detriment. Tousled fur, tangled whiskers, and incorrect posture are all things he takes into account when meeting another cat, and this often decides how he behaves around them. Often, however, the outside glances he assumes of his clanmates are incorrect, and he may end up regretting his original decisions if they prove to be better than they seem.
↧ Disdainful | Sedgepaw can be a difficult cat - the tom may be unwilling to lend his support to others he deems inferior or undeserving of the help. While it may seem cruel, Sedgepaw has reasons for everything he does. He might not want to waste time on a task that could be completed by another cat, or something so trivial-sounding and miscellaneous as sharing tongues.
↤ Guarded | Though much of this trait stems from uncertainties about clan loyalty as a kit, Sedgepaw is wary of cats he doesn't know well. It takes a long time for him to warm up to someone, and the curt politeness he displays before that happens sometimes rubs off as hostility. However, once Sedgepaw bonds with a cat, he is loyal to the end, and can prove quite the amiable friend if given the chance. He secretly fears that he will never find his place in the clan.
↥ Helpful | Sedgepaw is a loyal RiverClan cat through and through, and because of his half-clan heritage, he tries to take on as many duties as possible to prove that he can be trustworthy and an asset to his clan. He jumps at the chance to go on a hunting patrol or gather moss (though he isn't very enthusiastic about the former), sometimes overworking himself. As a result, he catches cold easily and doesn't spend much time chatting with his fellow apprentices.
HISTORY!!
Prologue | A Fateful Encounter
Sedgepaw's mother was a purebred siamese kittypet named Tuscany, and his father was a RiverClan cat named Stonefall. Tuscany was out taking a peaceful stroll with her twolegs, until Stonefall, who was out on a solo hunting mission, saw her leashed to the twolegs and decided she needed saving. He attacked the twolegs and saved Tuscany, who promptly began scolding him for scaring the living daylights out of her housefolk. Wanting to hear more about his clan, Tuscany introduces herself and requests Stonefall to visit and tell her about RiverClan before leaving. Stonefall ends up visiting quite often, bringing her forest prey which Tuscany quickly becomes fond of. Vole is her favorite and soon becomes Stonefall's too.
Tuscany and Stonefall soon have four healthy kits, though the peace is soon broken when Tuscany struggles through the snow to deliver her four offspring to their father before her housefolk can take them away. Due to her fatigue and the milky scent of her kits overwhelming everything else, the starved fox lying in wait easily kills three of her kits. In an attempt to protect her last, Tuscany retaliates as best she can, but is severely injured.
Stonefall manages to make it over in time to hear what happened before Tuscany dies of blood loss. A passing border patrol soon arrives to see Stonefall curled around her and his kits, one of which is kneading his stomach, mistaking him for his mother, mewling pitifully for milk.
Chapter 1 | Kithood
Sedgepaw's father loved him greatly. The two were best friends, and Stonefall did everything in his power to help his kit get a head start on the necessary skills to become a warrior. He taught his kit to be adventurous and brave - Sedgepaw knew how to hunt and a couple of basic fighting moves at a young age.
Once, when his father was out to catch him a trout, his favorite food, he snuck outside the camp to return the favor by surprising his father with a vole. He was so focused on the task he didn't hear the owl swooping down on him from behind. Thankfully Stonefall was heading back to camp and tackled the owl before it fastened its talons into Sedgepaw's shoulders. However, Sedgepaw did not escape unscathed, as the owl's claws punched two rips in his ear. He since has had a paralyzing fear of large birds, and will never go long without inspecting the skies above him.
Stonefall and the owl wrestled on the ground for a few moments, during which Stonefall slew the owl, but not before it ripped a dangerously deep gash down his belly, which became infected and led Sedgepaw to fear for his sire's life. Sedgepaw, traumatized and terrified to lose his only parent, stayed by his side for weeks, missing his apprenticeship ceremony until Stonefall could finally walk again. However, due to the drasticity of the wound, Stonefall retired early to the elder's den and lived to watch his son move on to the next stage of his life.

Skype Roleplay
Definitely preferred - good for semi-literate, literate, script, and quick reply roleplays. Please note me for my Skype.
Comment Roleplay
I don't mind this, but I would prefer semi-literate to literate replies for this.
Google Doc Roleplay
Don't mind this either. Any format is alright for this one. Replies will be slower since I don't get notifications for this.
Note Roleplay
It's easy to keep track of - I don't mind it but I'm not a huge fan either. Semi-literate to literate only.
Sample:
Sedgepaw coughed pointedly, a dry smile spreading across his features as he took note of Fawnpaw's embarrassment. "Commenting on the weather? Am I really that scary?" He tried for a friendly purr, though it came out more grumpy-sounding then he hoped. Clearing his throat, he fluffed out his short fur and sat beside her, wincing as the cold dirt leeched the warmth from his skin. "You feeling up for a hunting patrol or some sort later?" Sedgepaw angled his head toward the measly arrangement of prey lying in a sad heap, long since stale from yesterday. "Of course, if you aren't up for it I could go with someone else."
