dustcloud is a grey tabby who lives up to his prefix. It looks, quite simply, as though a thick layer of dust has settled over the tom with just a few dark patches showing through. His underbelly, as with many tabbys, is very light, however even here is not free from the dust. It just looks as if he spends too much time on his soft underbelly and the dust has not had as much space to cling on to.
The playful tom is physically fit. His muscles are thick and rippling under his short fur and his tail is always quick to flick back and forth. While his shoulders are not particularly thick, it is obvious that he has quite a bit of power beneath his sleek fur.

As a kit, dustcloud was energetic, annoying and a prankster. Nothing has changed in the two dozen moons since his birth.
There seems to be absolutely no limit to the amount of energy this aging cat has. It takes very little to get him on his feet and bouncing around the camp. There was and still is no job he disliked doing, be it hunting, fighting, gathering moss...even de-ticking the elders when he was an apprentice. As long as he was doing something he was happy. And when there was nothing to do, he and his best friend would often run out to the forest to find something to do on their own. Even in his sleep, his restlessness frequently disturbed his denmates.
Due mostly to his endless energy, many cats found him a tad bit annoying. When there was no task assigned to him, he would spend his time playing pranks on his Clanmates. Of course, the stereotypically grumpy ThunderClan cats did not enjoy that to much. Luckily for him, his large eyes and cute face got him out of about half the trouble he got himself into. One of the perks of being annoying was the fact that he found very little to annoy him. The only think that has been found to do so is the soft buzzing insects near his ear. But as a whole, he is always moving and always laughing.
Despite his annoyance factor, he is still quite personable. Many cats can't help but like him, especially since his pranks and tricks died down once he was made a warrior . He is very charismatic and could talk himself out of a badgers nest if need be.

MOTHER: Rockclaw
FATHER: Gentlegiant
SIBLINGS: Cottonfur; Milkywhite; Sunnypaw
OTHER FAMILY: weedthroat (Like Brother/Best Friend)
MENTOR: Sharptooth
HISTORY:
Dustkit was born to very loving parents. He had two siblings (though his mother was not very creative with her naming). Dustkit had been named for the thick layer of dust that appeared to be stuck to him. His sister, Cottonkit had patches of white throughout her calico fir that looked as if cotton balls had landed gently on her and refused to leave. Milkykit was pure white. And small Sunnykit was an orange tabby who just seemed to glow with personality, even before he could really express himself.
Growing up, Dustkit had been as close to his siblings as any litter typically was. However there was one cat a few moons older then him who had really caught his attention. You weedkit had encouraged weedkit to play with him a lot and the two grew to be fast friends, especially since weedkit was always available to play when the energetic Dustkit wanted to.
It wasn't long before Dustkit had figured out what a prank was. They started out harmless enough - sneaking into the warriors den and moving nests around and the like. Although he had yet to be caught, his parents seemed to know that it was him. His mother disproved as a whole, but while they remained innocent, she would let him be. His father, however, had a pride for his creative young kit that often got him boxed over the ears for praising. Of course, that didn't stop the affectionate dad from encouraging Dustkit in secret.
Dustkit and his siblings were apprenticed only a few moons after weedpaw. Dustpaw's mentor was very different from his father. Not at all approving of his apprentice's pranks, Sharptooth was never slow to tell the young cat to change or stop, especially when the pranks started to become a tad more dangerous. While it was never Dustpaw's intention to hurt anyone - things like putting a rock into someone's path when they weren't looking, making holes in the roofs of dens right before rain or switching the Medicine Cat's herbs around - were starting to get out of paw.
But he had to do something to expel his energy and he often snuck out with weedpaw to explore the territory. Whenever they came back, something of epic proportions had always happened to them. While the other apprentices were impressed with their adventures, Sharptooth listened in with disdain and only worked his apprentice harder.
But as much as the grumpy cat tried to push his apprentice to his breaking point, he never succeeded. Dustpaw was unbreakable and he would always do everything his mentor set out for him with a hop skip and a jump to his steps. Sharptooth was all too excited when he was to be rid of Dustpaw.
Dustpaw was named Dustcloud and shortly after, Sharptooth retired (not wanting to share a den with his former apprentice). Dustcloud's pranks started to lessen as he grew older. As a warrior, he had less time to run around and mess with other cats. Because of his boundless energy, bramblestar and sandthorn were quick to put him onto as many patrols as possible but it never seemed to be enough.
