This cat is strange in several ways.

They give off very little scent, which makes them somewhat harder to notice than the average cat. In addition, their gender is indiscernable through smell.
[I wanted to add that I didn't choose this trait to make an OP stealth character. I chose this because I prefer my sonas to be gender ambiguous because it makes me feel more comfortable using them. And this is what I came up with for this type of setting, since for cats it's much more about what you smell like than what you look like.
The harder to detect part was just a nice bonus.]

Their eyes are pale lavender due to albinism of the eye. The lack of pigment causes them to be incredibly sensitive to light, making daylight unbearable but giving them somewhat enhanced night vision.

Their fur is middle-length and kept tidy and well groomed.
Body is fairly slender with somewhat long legs, dainty paws, and a long tail.

Their demeaner is quiet and reserved. They don't talk a lot and take things seriously.

They are pretty much always on alert, and with their high perception it is nearly imposible to sneak up on them.
Conversely, they have light paws, and with their lack of scent tend to sneak up on others by accident.

This tendency coupled with their general reclusiveness puts many other cats on edge about them. Some may be mistrustful, creeped out, or even fearful of them.

As for battle, this cat is not a strong fighter. While they have the agility to dodge most attacks, they have little strength or stamina. Meaning they cannot keep up for long or deal much damage. Their best bet is to trick or disable their attacker as quickly as possible.

Disliking violence anyway, the one cat they'd probably get along with quickly would be the medicine cat.
Though lacking the talent and devotion to actually become one, this cat takes interest in the role and likely knows several herbs and techniques from spending time around the medicine cat den.

Sleeping through the day, they are well suited for night guard and night patrol, as well as recon missions. When not on duty they like to wander through the night, keeping watch over the territory in their own way. They also search out the herbs that are more abundant at night.

Nice reference sheet! I love the way you've used the stealth to their advantage and balanced out their flaws. Will add this cat to the list! One thing I have to ask though, do they have a name, or will they be introduced when the story begins?

Re: if you need name suggestions, I have some I could suggest!
My main focus is having everyone get the hang of interacting and following through with clan life. (Including a few time skips to avoid disinterest in the same thing) So the introduction of your character may be delayed depending on if the rp starts developing story right away. Another problem with introductions outside the clan is the way they appear, backstory, goal, and how the characters respond to or accept them. My last rp shrugged it off and sort of accepted it (which resulted the most of the clan becoming half kitty-pet and rouge) so as long as they're introduced in a way that fits I think it'll flow as naturally as the story itself.

The rp is taking place in the newer territory (Windclan currently) but since it's in the future, quite a bit of the land has changed. I didn't want to make a new map since it'd be best to imagine the forest as it's like in the canon series. So past events of the canon series are still relevant but very far behind their era.

Re: I don't have a discord or ps4, but I do use Deviantart quite often, so if you'd like to discuss the RP with me I'd be happy to do it there!
I've not been working on the story as much as I'd hoped since I assumed the rp wasn't going to work out, but as it's linked to my comic series I'm still open for having the rp on another platform for other people to join.
