"Forest" greenclaw; gentle and quiet of soul and spirit

35 moons - tom - Forest greenclaw of the North Wind
>> Gentle Rain is a large, silvery grey tabby tom with the long and fluffy fur typical of a North Wind cat. He inherited his father's appearance but his mother's pale green eyes, though neither of them had the same ease at which he moves around the medicine den. His paws are small and often become hidden in the amount of fur that erupts from his body, though this is good as it keeps him warm even in the chilliest of winter nights.
>> Much like his name, Gentle Rain is calm, soothing, and often a cat that others come to for advice. He will not judge a cat from their heritage or who their parents were, though often can be found in his own dreamland, often muttering to 'himself', or the spirits around him. He likes to be alone but can stand being with others for periods of time, and wishes to pass on his knowledge to others too, but often can't find the right words to describe the things that are needed. He believes that everyone's life has a purpose and often does not openly show his emotions.

>> Gentle Rain was born to two loyal members of the North Wind, a beautiful she-cat named Silver Rain and a strong-willed, bold-hearted tom named Eagle's Cry. His connection with the Spirits was clear from the moment he was born, and though he wasn't blessed by a spirit he was very obviously drawn to the greenclaws' way of life, not wishing to play with his siblings so much as to be around others. His sister Ashen Cry moved on to become a regular coldpaw, and though he tried initially, Gentle Rain always felt the pull of
something leading him to the healing den. He approached one of the greenclaws, an old tom named Glinting Frost, and asked to train under him. The tom agreed and once he was initiated into the greenclaws, Gentle Rain spent most of his time in the healing den or out in the forest gathering herbs. At this point he was so far removed from his family that he didn't notice his father's distancing from his mother, and only realised he was doing so when Silver Rain fell rather ill all of a sudden, dying not long before Glinting Frost passed too. Gentle Rain was heartbroken and, though he continued to delve himself within his work, he always wished that he'd said more to both of them.
