((I added a 'Belief' section, because A) I needed somewhere to keep notes on the belief and B) His viewpoints shall focus more on politics.))

Name| Dustnose
Gender| Tom
Physical Description| Dustnose is a pale brown, short-furred cat. His pelt is a similar colour to the dusty-brown brown floor inside the enclosure. Darker brown tabby stripes cover the lengths of his body and are most prominent on his head. This gives him rather distinguished face. His eyes, like the typical enclosure cat, are yellow in colour but are paler than most. He is relatively lithe, partly due to genetics but mostly because he is slightly undernourished. When he moves, he moves with a great confidence, one that could puzzle a cat. Why should a cat, which is obviously not well fed and doesn't have much apparent strength, move as if he owns the enclosure? The answer is this; although he is a scrawny cat, he has found his place in existence and he feels no need to fear. He feels able to hold his head up high, for he has his four paws most definitely upon the ground. He tends to move in quick jerks when excited or talking about his beliefs.
Beliefs| Dustnose believes the light is sacred. It brings life to all it touches. Without it, cats could not see and they would be blind to the pleasures of the world. Without light, life would be a colourless blackness, there would be no point to it.
But light is a mysterious thing. Where does it come from? It comes from the outside, that he knows, but what causes it? Surely such a beautiful and life-giving thing cannot come from nothing? He pondered this for many moons, and finally came across the answer.
The answer was so simple, even a kit could realise it. All things are born; every rat, lizard, insect and kit are birthed in some way by a female. Therefore, the same process must happen for there to be light. So, that was that. Through his unshakable logic, it must be that a queen was the divine giver of life. He decided, in respect for this figure (who had obviously given him the inspiration to realise her existence), to call this amazing being the 'Queen of Light'.
That night, the Queen of Light contacted him through a dream and she bestowed onto him the meaning of existence in the enclosure. She told him that is was to honour her existence, through spreading word of her and praising her above all else. Dustnose believes that the Light-giver is an infinitely kind being, who has nothing but love for the cats in the enclosure. She watches over them as a mother watches over her kits, providing her birth-light (days are kits of light and life, birthed from her womb) so they may see. She strains to provide light through the darkness, like a female cat giving birth to kits. Dustnose is currently pondering whether these kits will stop coming at some time (if their number is not infinite, the end of life as they know it could come quickly) or whether they will go on forever. All he knows is that the Light-birther wants the enclosure to respect, love and praise her, for she is fed up of providing life and getting nothing from it.
Dustnose also knows that the light, due to its holy nature, would kill a cat instantly as soon as they left the enclosure. Its glory, at its fullest, is not for cat's eyes. At one time, cats were close enough to her and loved her enough to dwell under its direct rays (though in what form, he does not know) but, for some reason the Light-giver did not disclose, now they cannot. As the Light-giver did not want to lose her precious children, she made the enclosure for them so they may live. Outside the enclosure, there is nothing but darkness or light depending on whether the Mother of Light is birthing or has given birth. Nothing can survive out there in the light or the dark. Any creatures that come in from the outside are birthed directly from the Queen itself.
Views| Dustnose's beliefs are simple; the Queen of Light is the only authority. She has told him this herself. Any cat who attempts to organise the cats or is self-proclaimed leader is directly scorning the Queen of Light. Her will currently is sound, she is the only thing that should be followed. Therefore, Dustnose is a strong and will be encouraging others to follow Light-birther themselves.
