Appearance: Ravenpoint is a tall and sleek black tom with white markings reminiscent of a skeleton, his right ear is folded over and he has silvery blue eyes that can be seen peering out from his skeleton mask of an unknown creature.
Personality: Ravenpoint is nonchalant, calculated, and a rather bored cat. He tends to keep to himself and prefers to be alone and in his own company, though Ravenpoint isn’t one to ignore or push his family away. Ravenpoint is often left confused and unaware of just how much things have changed since he had been gone and oftentimes can be seen or heard mumbling to himself as he tries to recall what exactly he’s missed. Ravenpoint often feels like a stranger in the place that’s supposed to be home to him and feels guilty, knowing he should be happy to be home and yet secretly wishing he wasn’t.
History: Ravenkit was born in a single litter to proud Skyclan warriors Wolfbelly and Fogspring, Ravenkit was loved and spoiled in love and happily spent his kithood dreaming of being a warrior just like them. More than anything else Ravenkit wanted a sibling and much to his parents' chagrin could always be heard demanding they bring him a sibling for him to love and and care for, and soon enough Smokekit came to be. Ravenkit was a few moons short of being an apprentice when Smokekit was born and Ravenkit couldn’t have been happier. Wherever Ravenkit went Smokekit was never far behind, almost like he was Ravenkit’s shadow.
Ravenpaw’s apprenticeship in Skyclan was short as his first few gatherings were spent meeting and befriending Snowpaw of Stormclan, coming home to tell Smokekit all about it with a smile on his face. Ravenpaw showed great progress in his training despite being deaf in one ear, he was expected to turn out as fine of a warrior as his parents were. But everything changed when a large bird swooped down and tore Ravenpaw from his home, from everything he had ever known. He could feel the bird’s talons dig and tear at his pelt and the tears that burned at his eyes, but Ravenpaw was determined to make this as hard as possible for his kidnapper. With a few vicious bites and well placed swipes Ravenpaw freed himself from his captor’s grasp, only to plummet to the ground. Ravenpaw landed square on his back as he met the cold hard earth and could hear what was certainly something breaking. Ravenpaw was left winded and in agonizing pain as the darkness flooded his vision, alone and far from home.
Raven desperately tried to return home, as young and as injured as he was he understood that all he could do if he ever hoped to return to Skyclan was to keep moving. Raven survived off of the basics that he knew and more often than not had to find himself hiding or even running away from danger to ensure his own survival, he wondered if his parents would be ashamed of him. If Smokekit would still look at him as if he was cooler than snow, Raven tried not to think about it as it’d do him no good. He braved the weather, the isolation, the pain of his body begging him to take a break, Raven did it all just to get home.
Raven finally returned to Skyclan after being found by Crowpaw who just so happened to be a Skyclan apprentice, though it was so different than when he had left it, his parents were now gone and he now had to care for his younger brother who didn’t dare to leave his side. Though Raven could no longer continue his training as a warrior apprentice he had picked up knowledge about medicine during his time of surviving alone and instead became a medicine cat apprentice, soon becoming Ravenpoint. Though even now Ravenpoint still struggles to adjust to being home and relearn who everyone is.
