HISTORY
Family:
- Jenny--mother--deceased

History: Tramp is the result of a sweet-talking loner named Leopard having a fling with a kittypet she-cat named Jenny. It was a one-night thing, and then Leopard disappeared for moons. When he finally returned and found out that Jenny was pregnant with his kits, he attacked her and half-killed her before the twolegs found them and saved Jenny. She was taken to the vet, and eventually her body recovered from the abuse...but her mind did not. She was left with a great hatred for all tomcats, and especially for the little kit in her belly.
It was perhaps the attack that caused only one of the kits to be born alive, and from the very moment she gave birth, Jenny hated the kit. She named him Tramp and proceeded to practically ignore him. The only reason she allowed him to nurse was because her twolegs expected it of her, but it was no secret that she relished the day when Tramp would be given to other twolegs and taken out of her life.
Naturally, no cat would want to live this way, with a mother loathing every second she spent with him and calling him a "tramp". The tomcat sprung out of the twoleg nest the first chance he got and never looked back. Armed with as much information about his father as he was able to gain (that Tramp looked just like Leopard, even had his eyes, and that Leopard liked to hang around the forest), Tramp set off to find his father. His goal? To find Leopard and figure out why Jenny hated him so much.
After spending several moons with a hateful mother, it came as a great shock to Tramp to find himself doted upon by many she-cats. He was a very handsome tomcat from the start, and as he moved about alone and took on those who challenged him, Tramp built up muscle to match his looks. This constant attention from strangers after such hatred from his mother worked quickly to built up Tramp's pride and arrogance. Pretty soon, he was practically unrecognizable as the hapless young kit born of a one-time fling.
Along with this arrogance came fear. Fear that one day, cats would stop treating him the way he'd been treated. Fear that, one day, he wouldn't be good enough for cats to pay so much attention to him. So Tramp became a daredevil, taking on any challenge and doing crazy things just so he could tell the tale one day. He did crazy stunts to hide his insecurity, and continues to do so to this day as he searches for his father.
