Rafael

Rafael is a smilidon and Peacekeeper for the Freedom Fighters.

Personality
A usually loud, boisterous and self-confident individual Rafael is a saber cat that grew up on firm beliefs. From a young age, it was constantly drilled into his head that others came first before him and that there was no grey area between right and wrong. His family affirmed his belief that he had to follow a strict code and thus why he has strict morals that he goes by.

Yet even with this he often finds himself being the most gullible out of the party at moments due to his inexperience in certain walks of life, such situations can make him appear headstrong and stubborn. Refusing to change his opinion about something, but perhaps he isn't quite what he seems. He appears to be ready to adapt to change. A malleable mind of sorts.

Backstory
Rafael was born in the high plains of Rag Tooth Plateau. He came from humble beginnings, being taught that he was merely supposed to raise the cattle which supported his clan and move through his life without complaint. He very rarely questioned out loud why he was destined to such a boring fate but as time went on life seemed to prove to his family different. One situation after another he was always saving someone; turning that individual the right way while his cousin, Malik, who was suppose to be the leader always did things wrong. Despite already having started his teachings.

It was a hard decision for that clan to make, but eventually Rafa who was destined to be nothing became something. He became Malik's right hand. His voice of reason and the one to put him on the right path. The two hit it off instantly, and because of their blossoming friendship things in the clan changed dramatically. While they were never struggling they seemed to suddenly be thriving under the new leadership when Malik and Rafa came to age, and they prospered greatly...

But such things did not last, much like many other people's homes were affected by the war so was Rafa's. The clan was divided by it, tearing it apart from the inside out and eventually the clan broke apart. Some running for the Blackbloods, others running for the Rogues. Rafa, however, ran for the Freedom Fighters with Malik following behind. Life was not the same after the great division, yet Malik and Rafa still hold hope that maybe they can reforge their clan and return to their home one day.
