Tempest comes off as a stern cat sometimes. Many believe that he is cold and strict with the rules. He is a very loyal tom and would defend his clan and those he loves with everything he's got. He doesn't like it when others simply through aside the rules and do as they please. He honestly believes that the codes were created for a reason - and that reason was in the best interest for all the cats. Despite believing the rules strongly, he doesn't wish for anyone to be exiled if they break them - but he does believe they should be punished. Tempest doesn't want nor enjoy seeing someone to be given a punishment that doesn't fit the crime. Tempest does believe in redemption depending on the situation and how it played out. He is a strong defending her justice and hates to see something unfair. He doesn't usually judge someone since that is a bit unfair, though can be suspicious towards one who could be a threat to his clan and keeps them at arms length though within eyesight.
Despite his cold exterior, Tempest is really a marshmallow. He cares deeply for every cat in his clan and hates to see any of them get hurt. He is very passionate, but tries his best to hide it and tries to act like a warrior that without any weakness. Tempest really loves his family, and his siblings are some of the few cats that he lets his playful side show. He is very protective over them and would be torn to pieces if he had to choose between them or the clan such as if one of them broke a rule - though in the end, he might just choose to protect his sibling, but it would still be difficult for him to do if the rule was a big one. He also loves his parents, but is usually trying to impress them and prove himself, so he acts more mature wile in their presence. This goes for the majority of his clan-mates as well, but he doesn't hide his kindness while interacting with younger cats such as kits or young apprentices.
In honesty, he acts this way due to being insecure about his position. Tempest sees both of his parents as incredible warriors. On top of that, just the fact that his mother was a leader alone makes him unnerved. This is the main reason why he acts like such a serious warrior who is a strict rule follower. He is constantly trying to prove himself and acts mature. Of course, he does take off this cold mask around cats he feels comfortable with. Though he would rarely do so around his clan-mates despite caring deeply for all of them. He sees the clan as a larger family of his - though his true family has a much more special place in his heart, of course.

Tempest was born to the leader of Thunderclan - Snowstar at the time, later stepped down as Snowsong - and a respected warrior named Stormstrike. Due to this, he began to think that he had to prove himself and live up to them as he got older. As a kit, Tempestkit did enjoy playing with his litter-mates, though didn't spend much time with cats outside his family, becoming close to his siblings and especially close with his aunt Honeyfur. Honeyfur noted Tempestkit's friendly yet protective nature with his family and believes that he was the "leader" of his litter, just like her with her siblings growing up.
As apprentices, Tempestpaw was given his uncle - Blackstorm - as a mentor, Snowstar doing so in order for Blackstorm could prove himself and his loyalties to the clan once again. Honeyfur still distrusted Blackstorm, so she began unofficially training Tempestpaw as well. He didn't get along too well with his official mentor at first, but came to care about him as an uncle and someone to looks up to and trust. Though when he was only about 8 moons old, tragedy struck the family: Mintpaw, Snowsong and Snowsong's side of the family died - including his mentor Blackstorm. This sudden and horrifying event did not hold Tempestpaw back, but he rather let it make him more determined to protect his clan and the ones that loves, not wanting to lose anyone else. Despite not being held back that much, he did become cautious about getting a new mentor and decided not to for a bit there, falling behind a little in training. He eventually got Blueberrytuft. He started off a little cold towards her but ended up caring for her almost like a second mother.
After becoming a warrior and gaining the name Tempesthowl, he started to befriend a few more cats, not a lot but more than when he was younger. At some point he lost his remaining siblings as well as Blueberrytuft, which left him feeling even lonelier than before.
