When it comes down to the crunch, Skyrose has always been just one of those cats who show how sometimes, first impressions are right, and she's either loved, or hated. Of course, opinions do change over time, and one that thick shell is cracked, she can become a more pleasant person to be around, but there are only a few rare people who ever get close, so, unless someone's spent a lot of time in the same personal space with her, that first impression is what's best to go off.

The easiest way to describe this young she-cat is probably dark; not so much in the realms of depression or self-harm, but in sense of humour, and cynic view of the world. Of course, it's not like she sees the world as an evil, disgusting place, nor does she feels the need to change it. She just sees things as they are without sugar-coating them, doesn't try to shine a ray of light on a dark thought or claim that there's good in everyone. This she-cat is down to earth, grounded in the mind a soul, a cat of science, truth and observation over faith, magic and ignorance, and while it can be considered a strength, it is just as much a weakness. After all, what's life without the spark of the unexpected?

Quick-witted and sarcastic, Skyrose always has some offhand comment to throw at anyone, always a sarcastic remark to come back with whenever a stupid question is asked. No matter the conversation, she is rarely ever left speechless, able to make up any reply within moments, yet everything that comes out of her mouth is the truth, in some form or another. It isn't in her nature to lie, to try and turn accusations away unless they are serious enough that she needs to do so to save her own hide, and really, such unguarded truth always comes out blunt, to the point. She's not going to wrap it in sugar and ribbon and give it to the person kindly. They asked, therefore they get. Yet, there are certain things she will, not so much as lie about, as keep to herself.

Skyrose is really more of a hands-on feline, hating to be stuck in front of elders listening to stories or going through talks with her former mentor about bird type or thoery. She's always been a quick learner as soon as she's thrown in the thick of it and forced to teach herself. Oh, she is definitely the arrogant type, always too proud, holding too bloated of an ego to back down from a challenge, too stubborn to do as she was told. However, her hands-on approach, tends to apply to more, social situations. With a temper which can flare up at no notice, she is well known for being the one in the centre of a fight, or a spar in the centre of the training area.

In a way, she's always thrived off the adrenaline of the fight, always needed to rush that comes with pinning down someone, with making them yell out that she had them cornered. All her life she was told she was weak, that she was a girl therefore didn't fight, and did what she was told, and over time, her control issues came about, and she does feel that urge to prove that she isn't that girl all her so called brothers told her she was. Yet, with her temper and pride? Of course impulsiveness has to follow. Despite her quick mind, she always tends to jump in with both feet and deal with the consequences later, and while she is able to cope with them, it is more than anything a huge flaw.

The arrogance, sarcastic sense of humour, and quick temper are all however, just one side, the side she puts forth to show the world, the one that everyone meets and deals with before anything else, because while it may seem like she trusts others, she doesn't. It's not a default setting so to speak to let anyone get close enough that she needs them, or that they'll want something of her. In the past, it's just caused her pain, and she isn't keen to go through that again. Under the thick skin and layers of armour though, there's only a broken girl, one who has no faith in anything, who takes everyone's views to heart and feels that need to show she's worth while, that she's important in some way. The girl inside is the protective one, the one who isn't afraid to show affection toward those who she trusts, the one who is fiercely loyal to those who deserve it.

But, that girl, she's buried deep down, so while the world thinks they see the real Skyrose, truthfully? They're not even close.
