Appearance
A notable thing about him is his blue eyes. Depending on the lighting, they can be pale like a sky and other times they are darker like a pool of water. His markings are unique as well. His base coat is a cream with some flecks growing paler with age. His tail is lean and long and painted a dark brown creeping into black. As a kitten it was striped by black rings, giving him his curious name. His paws to the elbows match his tail cooling. His nose does not pultrude anymore than a normal cats, nor is it blunt like it ran into a brick wall.
His facial markings is the same shade of his tail and paws. His face is the dark, rich brownie color as are his ears. Like a used coffee bag being dropped into clean water, the dark color and his cream base merge on the edges of his face. It spilled and mixed, clouding the areas. There is a bridge on his forehead over this area which matches his tail. It connects the markings on his ears to his face.
His body is lean and fit. His legs strong and agile. He’s a fast cat, but not the best climber. He’s a runner and a chaser; a pouncer in the peaceful woods. He isn’t one of those fluffy cats that look good with their winter fat. His fat sags under his belly. His unbrushed coat is short, but thick enough to keep him warm through winter. In the spring he sheds like nuts. He isn’t the largest and is actually fairly small. Not as small as a runt, but he’s right beside them.
Personality:
He is naturally a stoic character, but he often likes complaining because it gains him looks and some attention. However in a time of scarcity, he can go without eating and is willing to, just as long as it’s going to those who need it. Not some fat cat who is a pig. He can be selfish and will choose the larger mouse if things are prosperous. He easily gets jealous and envious of others. If others are getting praise, he wants some too. However, he won’t mention it, but it’ll boil inside of him.
He can be kind and he’s usually respectful. Sarcasm isn’t below him nor are hard jokes. He likes practical jokes and attention, but he isn’t great about saying good jests or paying other people attention. He can be egotistic. He likes to talk about himself as well, which is something he has noticed and is trying to stop. However, old habits die hard. He is a daredevil and he loves to jump the widest chasms, climb the tallest tree and fight the grumpy badger.
He can be a smart-aleck and somewhat annoying. He likes attention so he’ll go and get it, whether it’s negative or positive. Call him risky. He does know when he’s pushed it too far and then he’ll stop. That is when other cats are around and he wants to show off. Alone, he’s fairly quiet. He likes to sit by the stream and stack rocks. It’s a weird hobby so he only does it when he’s certain he’s alone. It would be embarrassing if he wasn’t. He has a reputation to keep up, doesn’t he? He’s not all terror in front of others, he can be sweet and compassionate as well. He’s definitely not humble. He pouts when he is defeated or had a bad day. Sometimes it lingers into the next day and the day after it. But when he’s over it, he’s over it and will act as if it never happened.

Other:
This is based off of my own cat. His mother was black and his dad was a tabby. Tornado. Siblings were tortoiseshell and a grey. I have no clue how he popped out the way he did.
