Personality: Jasmine is an energetic cat who has an immense curiosity for everything - which can lead her into great discoveries or dangerous situations. She is extremely cheerful around those she knows well, and loyal to her closest of friends and family. However, with strangers she becomes extremely shy and often prefer to fly off on her own rather than make new company, and is generally distrustful of all but her closest companions, which can make her hard to become close to.
History: Kithood - Born in a litter of two and losing her sibling within the first few days of life, Jasmine was raised alongside older kits and without a brother or sister to grow with. Because of this, her energy and curiosity often carried her farther from her mother than it should have, leading to several misadventures that left the young cat excited and cheerful but her elders exasperated.
Training: Because of her high energy Jasmine enjoyed training for becoming a Talon. As a Pale Feather she was most often quite around the other young cats, and avidly listened to the instructor. After a short while, she became fast friends with another Pale Feather and managed to convince her new friend to come on her adventures. After a run-in with a storm several moons later and managing to save her companion from the raging winds, she returned home to a massive scolding... but soon thereafter earned her rank as Talon after proving some prowess in flight and fighting(much of which could be attributed to her endless supply of energy).
Present: Now a new Talon, Jasmine is still adjusting to her duties and is learning to come out of her shell more as she has to work with more cats. She still has a large adventurous streak, though, and loves nothing more than to explore along the coast.
Hobbies: Flying and exploring along the coast line, swimming in tidal pools, and going on small adventures with her closest friends.

Roleplay example: The Turkish Van sat upon the cliff for a moment, overlooking the the beach and ocean below. She watched the waves roll in... roll out... and roll in again. A small purr rumbled in her chest as she rose to her paws, and looked over the cliff's edge. She kneaded the earth beneath her paws, anticipation building... then leaped off the stony outcropping and snapped her wings open, catching an updraft wafting up from the warm water below. She grinned as she skimmed over the waves, enjoying the quiet freedom she had here. A few moments later, she caught the sound of another cat's call from up over the cliff, and growled softly to herself as she saw another cat gliding down towards her. Her new duties never seemed to cease... but she put in a couple of hard wing-beats and rose to meet the other cat, ready for whatever was needed of her.
