Name: Rowan -
Rowanclaw - Rowanstar
Age: 27 Moons
Rank: Leader
Allegiance: Shadowclan
Picture: 
Appearance: Rowanstar is a massive well muscled tabby tom. He has broad shoulders and is much larger than the average tom. His fur base is a light bracken brown and his tabby stripes are black. His chest and part of his muzzle are white. The fur around his chest and muzzle are lighter than the rest of him. He has light green eyes. The tip of his tail is black. Other than his tabby pelt, he bears no resemblance to his sister Willowsong. He has faint scars around his muzzle from battles mostly before joining Shadowclan. His eyes are cold and hard, often smoldering. They flash emotions, though he usually keeps them pretty guarded. His claws are sharp and he keeps them unsheathed quite often - which is partially why he is named Rowanstar. He doesnt often smile, and if he does than whoever is recieving said smile should be concerned. He is a talented actor and does not reveal anything about himself from his outward appearance. His strong and aloof nature makes him attractive to she-cats often.
Personality: Rowanstar is cruel to say the very least. He has strong ambitions and doesnt care who he has to go through to acheive his dreams of power. No one, including himself, really knows where he got his murderous cruelty from. It can be speculated it was never having a male role model, having so much power over his sister from his young age, growing up around hate or maybe its just the way he was meant to be. In any case, Rowanstar is a killer. He has yet to kill anyone in Shadowclan, but he would do so easily. He has killed loners and rogues outside the clans when he had the excuse to or it served his purpose. He has come very close to killing Willowsong on many occasions, but keeps her alive for usefullness - almost on a whim.
Rowanstar is also a brilliant actor. He is flawless at masking his true intentions and feelings, having had a lot of practice. He is a master manipulator. He is power hungry and an unstoppable force. He loves battle and thoughts of war - quite bloodthirsty really. He is devious and thinks of no one. He will toy with she-cats when he needs something from them, but would never actually form an attachment of any kind. He has been abusing Willowsong for years and she has the marks all over her body. He scars her, though makes them small and just shallow enough that the fur grows back over and hides them. Her scars are only visible up close. In short, watch out - murderous killer on the loose.

History: Rowan and Willow were born as loners to a she-cat named Kimya. Kimya's name translated from Swahili to "Silence" which was a very fitting name. Kimya was massive for a she-cat and was a stunning chocolate brown tabby with black stripes. That is where Rowan gets his coloring from. Willow is also a tabby, like her mother and brother, but she has light silvery fur. Her father, though his names and whereabouts were never revealed to Willow and Rowan, had apparently also been a silver cat. The kits got the impression that their father had abandoned Kimya. Kimya had a lot of hostility to their unknown father and so to Willow who looked like him. Rowan took advantage of this from very early on. He used it as an excuse to abuse Willow from the very start. He loved the power it gave him. As soon as Willow and Rowan were early enough to live alone, Kimya left them. Willow hated this as it meant she was unable to escape from Rowan.
Rowan and Willow traveled together for some time, during which Willow tried to escape but eventually just gave up. Rowan held his power over her, slicing and dicing her as he pleased. Eventually they stumbled upon the clans and joined Shadowclan. They became Rowanclaw and Willowsong. Rowanclaw had ambitions, dreaming of leadership and knowing he had no qualms about moving others out of the picture in order to acheive what he beleived was his future. When Rowanclaw and Willowsong had joined Shadowclan, the leader was Ebonystar and the deputy was a she-cat named Nightmist. Rowanclaw had planned on waiting for a battle opportunity to quietly murder Nightmist as he was already in favor with Ebonystar - a dark she-cat much like himself. However, Nightmist discovered about Rowanclaw's abuse of Willowsong. When Rowanclaw heard of this, he took action. Should anyone have discovered the truth, it would have been disasterous. He went out on a patrol with Nightmist and Willowsong, taking them to the borders near carrion-place.
When there, he rounded on Nightmist. Using his far superior size and strength, plus the element of surprise, Rowanclaw was able to defeat Nightmist. He murdered the former deputy quickly before rounding on his sister. He was quite angry at her, blaming her for Nightmist's discovery. He pinned her, slicing her sides as she screamed beneath him. He then let her up and while she cleaned her wounds, he gave himself a few shallow scratches as well as messing up Nightmist's body. Upon the return to camp, he told the heartbreaking story of an attack from rogue's who had sought refuge in Carrion-Place. He told the story of Nightmist's bravery, and appeared the mourn the loss of his deputy in battle. In the aftermath of the loss, Rowanclaw was named deputy of Shadowclan, his secret safe forever.
Ebonystar, racked by grief at the loss of Nightmist, soon became negligent towards her clan. She had never had a strong faith in Starclan, and Nightmist's loss had shaken her. She was well along in lives and began to leave more and more of her duties to Rowanclaw. Little by little, Rowanclaw seized control. All but Willowsong beleived him the valient warrior deputy. Rowanclaw had planned to soon kill Ebonystar - their leader was elderly and he had planned to suffocate her in the night. When the clan awoke, they would see she had simply died in her sleep. None but himself knew how many lives she had left. However, he did not have to do this. Ebonystar contracted greencough and passed suddenly, leaving Rowanclaw to become Rowanstar - leader of Shadowclan. Where he goes from now...none quite know.

Just some advice. I'll reserve the spot for you, and maybe you could add a little more detail about the events closer to his life? Wonderful. (:
