Revenant's Symphony (Silencedsoul)

Just after becoming an apprentice, tragedy struck. Revenantpaw's mother passed away, and the grief overwhelmed the tortoiseshell apprentice. Lupinespire didn't expect the young Revenantpaw as an apprentice, but the two quickly got over the awkwardness of the assignment and became a great pair together. "Russetstar, I don't feel like myself." Revenantpaw spoke up, hoping his message came across in as few words as possible. "I feel...silenced." The leader was quite accommodating of the request, and Silencedpaw would the tortoiseshell become. In fact, Silencedpaw learned an incredible amount from Lupinespire, becoming one of the brightest nighthunter apprentices with an aptitude for tracking. Being named Silencedsoul after his long seasons of training, thy wear thyr name with pride.

It was at the celebration of this warrior name that Silencedsoul realized the extent of how much his mother had...spoiled and protected him, so to speak. The eerie silence of Shadowclan's camp contrasted with the celebratory air that was present at all warrior ceremonies was beyond difficult for the young warrior to process, and little did he know how much it would hurt. Oh, ow, that hurt a lot. He never went to the Healers' den for it, though — he wrote it off as a normal part of Shadowclan life, and the vigil seemed to quell whatever was left after that. The Nighthunter was glad he'd chosen the nocturnal specialty, not wanting anything to do with the other clans. In fact, his duties were quite the escape from normal life, besides attending Gatherings in thyr Gathering attire. He always enjoyed putting the elaborate displays together with the help of his Campminder clanmates, the repetitive actions being grounding in the midst of the pre-Gathering chaos. Routines were carefully created in the middle of the transition of apprentice life to warrior life, and Silencedsoul tends to maintain the same actions each day. Thy don't see a reason to change — after all, what works...works. Thy also don't tend to attend Clan meetings and other Clan-wide activities, in hope of...not experiencing the same agonizing pain again. Somehow, though, the excitement of Gatherings takes the edge off.

Silencedsoul, now, has become a respected nighthunter of thyr clan. His affinity for Shadowclan's theatrical traditions and natural knack for hunting and tracking (notably, he often performs best by using sound alone), only added to that respect. Though thy don't often go on patrols, he likes to do so when he has the chance. Otherwise, he's quite the "normal" nighthunter, and he manages to hide thyr chronic migraines quite well. Thy also have been looking for love as of recent, with an interest in Flintflicker specifically...
