Description;;
-Cardinal, from a distance, looks to be a well-built tom of his age. His build is that of a slightly stocky cat, legs a bit short but strong and muscled from a career of warriorhood. The chest is lean and his tail is long, tipped for smooth balance that is vital to any cat's life. While most of ShadowClan may be dark coloured and, well, shadowy, Nocturne has to be taken into account as one of the more stronger and lighter furred cats. His pelt would be described as being pure white at first, and then painted with black, grey and silver; the entire hindquarters are painted with dark, disregarding the paws, and extends up until his ribcage, where it slides up to his shoulders and gets cut off with a sliver of white across the base of his neck. The upper side of his neck and head are then covered in the darker colors, stripes of darker grey dancing across his lighter silver fur, and the few splotches on his forelegs. Nicks decorate his ears from past battles with other cats and scars line his pelt and skin. To clash with the greys and white, Cardinal has eyes of a metallic green, a hint of yellow poured into the depths.
Personality;;
-Compare Cardinal to an ancient tom, of a different Clan, Tigerclaw, but lessen his nature's fierceness. Nocturnelight is an ambitious cat but doesn't go to the lengths of killing others or scheming behind his leader. He'd like the spot of leader, yes, but holds back out of respect for those higher and more powerful than himself, and only respects his leader and none of the others. The past war has toughened him consequently, the death of his only sister making his rock heart turn ice. He's afraid of death for that reason, because he doesn't want to leave his life with nothing to remember him by, forgotten as one of the regular warriors. A reputation would be something he would like to have, something to keep working for, something mildly positive in any way possible, just so the other Clanners would know to look out for him in any Gathering. Going along with his brand of respect, Cardinal likes to do things his way and delights in finding loopholes in orders, especially from other leaders and interprets messages in a different order than most, rewording messages for those spare spaces in them.
History;;
-Everything was gone. Dewfeather, his mother, had been killed by greencough in his first moon, in the middle of Leafbare. His father had been slaughtered by a small, unnoticable band of rogues, throat slitted, and Snaketail was no more. Cardinalkit and Snowkit, his sister, were left to grow up beside the residential queen of the nursery and when they were apprenticed, they were alone in the den. Cardinalpaw cherished his sister as his only family and was already distanced from the rest of the Clan because they were the son of an alleged murderer. The older cats had felt betrayed by Snaketail and shunned his offspring as vermin, as they should be. Though he has no physical traits that relate him to his name, Cardinalpaw earned his name of Cardinalsun by fighting a relatively fierce scuffle over territory with a RiverClan patrol, the scuffle happening under the noon sun. His sister earned her name, Snowmoon, while warning the camp of a small raid when she was on night duty.
-Cardinalsun worked hard in his duty as a warrior. He wanted to be noticed by the senior warriors, to be different from his father and more honorable than him, not overlooked as he had been for his life so far. The determination he put into his work earned him a reputation as a hard working cat, who did what he was told and did it effeciently or above the average cat. It wasn't intended for the slot of deputy when the old one died, but to just be noticed for who Cardinalsun was.
-He saw the tension between the Clans. He found his amusement in it. Cardinal wanted nothing more than a battle to break out so he could prove those elders wrong. He wasn't deputy yet, not yet. Then, his ambition had leaked and he yearned for that title so he could order others around, be less than his father but still powerful.
-When that fight finally broke out, Cardinal was proud that he was the one put in charge of the attack for ShadowClan. The eve of the attack, the deputy fell from a fatal case of blackcough and Cardinal was the worthy one at that moment. He was named deputy before the moon fully rose and was driven into battle the next day, at the front of the ShadowClan team and proudly representing his Clan. The stalemate drew back on Chaos's forces and the fight ended. But he still loved to scent the tension in the air.

RP example;;
-Cardinal swerved to the right and lashed out a paw, claws glinting in the pale light underneath the trees and their leaves, before leaping back with tiny blots of red trailing in the air. With a wry grin, he slid beneath the towering white tom before him and turned onto his back to scrape his claws on the soft underbelly. With a roar, the tom kicked his leg and left a gash. Cardinal hissed and slithered out of the cage of limbs before he could be marked any more. His paws found a foothold in the trampled grass and he spun, grey tail smacking against his opponent's flank, and pushed off with his hind paws once they touched the ground; the ShadowClan deputy's front claws dug themselves into white fur upon a shoulder and Cardinalsun clung onto the flesh with vigor.
-His hind claws viciously dug into exposed belly flesh and he figured that his enemy couldn't take the pain any longer. The grey and white warrior clung onto the cat's back as he rolled and then he kicked off once he was free from the smothering sensation of the ground and grass-like fur. Cardinalsun yowled his victory as the ThunderClan warrior scampered off into the surrounding foliage around Fourtrees. As he looked around with his silver-green eyes, he saw the battlestained cats tumbling around, slashing at others and baring their yellowed teeth in anger. This was going to tear them apart, and even the fighting Cardinalsun knew that.
