APPEARANCE Teller of Immortal Rain- more commonly known as Rainteller- is a fairly complex cat despite the fact that some can describe him in a single word: black. Although this single word describes him fairly well, there is much, much more behind the Healer of the Tribe of Crashing Waves.
Rainteller's pelt is indeed black- a very deep black that would be darker than black if such a thing existed. As it is, he's like a moving shadow, even in daylight, and at nightfall, it is practically impossible to see him coming at you. Such is the darkness on his pelt he was born with. In fact, his mother almost named him Shadow of the Blackest Night, but two things barred her. One, following tribe tradition, a kit is always named after the first thing the mother sees after they are born, which in Rainteller's case, was the endless fall of the extremely wet season they had that year. Two, the Healer of The Tribe of Crashing Waves at the time had told her that Rainteller was to become his to-be, and when he was to become Healer, Teller of the Blackest Night seemed to be a strange and ominous name for a Healer. Thus, he became Dance of Immortal Rain- But his tribe couldn't- and still can't- shake the strange feeling that seemed to come from Rainteller's shadow black pelt.
Fair points were made when Rainteller was finally appointed Healer many moons later. His pelt may have been black as shadow- but it was said this was a gift from The Tribe of Endless Hunting, not a curse. Surely no sign could have been clearer then his vibrant blue eyes?
Indeed, The Healer's eyes glowed with a strong royal blue-so much so that you could almost see their blue light when he closes them. It may seem that would make his stealthy appearance more vulnerable, but a few other cats always seemed blind to his strange glow and they appeared like any other cat's eyes to them.
Even stranger, his eyes seem to rotate almost, like a swirling vortex of wind wreathed in blue fire, making his appearance more majestic. Again, surely a sign to keep his Tribe's faith in him strong?
All cats have their flaws. Even Rainteller. He has burning royal blue eyes, a sleek shadow black pelt... But his strength doesn't match other cats, indeed, it is below average. Instead, Rainteller is built for endurance. Not short fast bursts for hunting, but a slower yet fast pace, maintainable for hours on end. Evidence of long treks like this are etched out on his body- numerous scars barely visible left by nettles, branches, thorns and other things- more than most cats meet on journeys- dot his fur and his ribs are usually always visible, whether or not the prey is running rich.
Finally comes Rainteller's true gifts from The Tribe of Endless Hunting, the natural part in all cats that is required to live in general. The Tribe of Flowing Wind's Healer keeps his fangs ready and claws sharp. Rainteller was always a battle ready cat, despite the fact of how much he hated out in the open battles, due to his low strength. His claws are like black thorns- matching his small body size, but who said smaller hurt less?
The shadowy cat's fangs also are smaller, but due to the fact that fangs are naturally larger then claws, they don't deal as much of a death blow as his claws do- unusual for a cat, but it works for the Healer.

PERSONALITY Rainteller breaks his families breeding by a long shot with his shadowy appearance and with his personality as well. In the beginning, it seemed evident he was going to be just like the rest of his family- normal. But as he walked his long path as the Healer's to-be and he matured with his pelt growing darker and darker, it became more and more obvious that this cat was anything but normal.
At first, during his days as a kit, Rainteller was much like his brothers and sisters. Slightly introverted, but conversational when pushed- that was the only uniqueness from the rest of the kits in the nursery- playful, kind, eager to become a to-be. But when his mother finally told him he was going to be the next Healer of The Tribe of Crashing Waves, instead of exploding with excitement, the black kit withdrew into himself, always wondering, Can I?
His parents were disappointed at first when they saw how much Rainteller changed when he became the Healer's to-be. They had expected him to be excited, but he became more and more depressed. Trying to get a good conversation from him became like trying to find a vole bone in the remains of a mouse. But all disappointment fades at sometime, whether or not the problem was fixed, and he became supported as the older healer began to age.
Rainteller finally exploded like a blooming flower when he became Healer. It took him mere days to get used to his new position, however much he missed his old mentor. He became more challenging, territorial and other quantities needed to be a good Healer, and his Tribe was glad to have supported him when this happened at last.
