Notes from contest entry for self:
As a cub, sometimes he feels overburdened by the heavy expectations placed upon him, leading to his sometimes failing at tasks because he gets too much inside his own head, and not wanting to appear indecisive or weak, not always properly considering all the facts before deciding how to tackle a problem. The unfortunate results make him question if he is even capable of being what his clan needs.
As he grows into adolescence and adulthood, I see him getting more comfortable with things as he accepts that it really is about doing his best, and to stop focusing on what he thinks others want him to do, or expect him to do. Humble, his youthful insecurities may make him more inclined to listen to the input of others, but ultimately make his own decisions as to what is the right path, whether it be in treating the ill or a spiritual concern.
To sum up the waffly paragraphs before, for cub and adult, a list of traits in my mind:
Cub: Positive Traits: Dutiful, compassionate, hard-working. Negatives: Insecure, Easily influenced by popular opinion, afraid to ask for guidance or help for fear of disappointing others, and struggles to form deep friendships with others, as he expends a great deal of effort in trying to act like a future nvwati, and so makes it difficult for others to get close.
Adult: Positive Traits: Compassionate, patient, and willing to do what he thinks is right even if no one else agrees. Negatives: Can sometimes still be reluctant to ask for help, not wanting to impose on others, and as a result feels like a bit of an outsider even within his own clan. While it may not be blatantly obvious to everyone, he is also incredibly stubborn, with a temper that, while hard to rile, can make him inflexible and unforgiving if pushed hard enough.
