RATTLEHEART X VENOMSTRIKE
Unlike most within Windclan's borders, the story of Rattleheart and Venomstrike is one of a strong friendship which blossomed into an even more formidable love. It all started when Windclan was still young, with Rattleheart joining the clan alongside his sister Scorchstreak. He was eager for a true home where he wouldn't have to constantly wander, and it didn't take long for him to realize that he was perfectly suited for work down in the tunnels that formed a web beneath Windclan's territory. In spite of this calling, Rattleheart found one of his best friends and closest companions in the form of a moor runner - Venomstrike.
The two of them remained steadfast friends for many moons, gradually growing closer to the point where the both of them were rarely away from each other's sides. Venomstrike was Rattleheart's rock throughout Sootstar's eventual turn to madness, being the tom that he constantly turned to whenever he was injured or concerned. To many, it seemed inevitable for the both of them to end up together. Though things took a turn for the worse when yellowcough consumed the clans, and Rattleheart too found himself in the grips of the sickness. His original goal of joining the journeying cats was squashed, and he was forced to remain in the abandoned badger set in Windclan territory.
Venomstrike naturally refused to leave his side, constantly bringing food to Rattleheart down in the set and often laying beside him through the sickness. Rattleheart was grateful for him, but also incredibly worried, and eventually his worst fear came true - Venomstrike also caught yellowcough. Though he thankfully only suffered through it for a short time before the journeying cats returned, it was enough for Rattleheart to feel incredibly guilty. He pulled away from Venomstrike, blaming himself and unintentionally shunning the moor runner as he believed it was better for the two of them to be apart.
Sootstar's madness was what brought them together in the end, with her attack on Sunstride and the resulting chaos reminding Rattleheart of what was truly important to him. He sought out Venomstrike in the crowd, urging him to come along with the rebel cats and flee. Once the fighting had died down and they were in relative safety, Rattleheart finally admitted his feelings for Venomstrike, with the other responding in kind. They were officially mates through thick and thin, remaining together even as they looked towards an uncertain future. It was a relief when they were finally able to return to their home, though things within Windclan were still far from perfect.
It wasn't until flowers overtook the moors that Rattleheart finally brought up the subject of having kits to Venomstrike, believing that the new abundance of life and prey would make for a perfect backdrop to them starting a family together. Venomstrike agreed without hesitation, and it didn't take long for Rattleheart to end up expecting their first litter of kittens together. However, the moors were recently unexpectedly overtaken by fire, the blaze destroying all of the growth that had prompted Rattleheart's confidence. Now the kits are approaching fast, and although Windclan is still hobbling back into a respectable state post-fire, Rattleheart finds himself praying that his little ones may bring all of them a sense of hope for the future. -
- The apps for this litter are FFA, but not FCFS. Please make sure to include basic information such as name, appearance, personality, etc.
- There are two slots available, though this may change based off of interest.
- The choosing date for this litter is May 29th, with the birthing thread coming on June 2nd to allow those chosen a few days to create accounts!
- Kits will start out at 0 moons, but their aging will be double timed until their apprenticeship, so they will only be played in the nursery for 3 months.
- Although Rattleheart is very active as my Windclan main, the only activity requirement for this litter is at least five posts a month.
- Players without currently active Windclanners will likely be prioritized, but please don't feel discouraged to apply if you have a character in Windclan!
- We reserve the right to rehome your kitten if needed due to inactivity. If you end up wanting to rehome your kit, please contact myself or BossTaurus.
- It is preferred that these kits stay in Windclan until at least adulthood, as both of their parents will adore them and ingrain a sense of loyalty to Windclan in them. However, feel free to contact either of us if you have plot ideas that may conflict with this.
- Characters with physical or mental disabilities are allowed, but please make sure you do research what you want to portray in order to do so respectfully.
