  • SWIFTFIRE XX HUSH
    It's an odd tale of love but love nonetheless, Swiftfire and Hush met on accident in leafbare while the former was hunting near the RiverClan border and ran into the latter. Part of the Red Water Rogues at the time, Hush attacked Swiftfire to try and take the meal she'd caught but ended up losing and impressed by her fighting skills stayed to talk with her instead of running off, and for reasons unknown to both of them Swiftfire allowed the conversation, both soon finding out they had some common interests and got along well. After this meeting they began to meet in private, both knowing that it would be frowned upon heavily if it were to be found out, the potential for Swiftfire to be exiled so soon after her other former colony members did hung heavy above their heads.

    At the final battle between RiverClan and the Red Water Rogues Hush was injured and ran off, unwilling to die for a cause that was clearly not worth it, wondering the unclaimed territories near RiverClan's border as he mulled over what to do. Swiftfire eventually found him there and they talked more, eventually making it semi-official - they would be unspoken mates, not sharing the word between each other but instead they shared their feelings for each other and eventually kits would be born from this union of one former loner now RiverClanner and one Rogue.
    • There are two slots available, with three kits total
    • Applications will be picked on April 13, with the litter being born April 20
    • Kits will start at 3 moons old and age realistically from there
    • There is no activity requirement for this litter, however Eomora and I do ask that they are active enough to remain on the RiverClan census. If you're unable to continue RPing the kit, please let one of us know so that we can figure out steps from there whether it be rehoming, assuming them missing, or killing them off. After two months without activity or word we reserve the right to rehome the slot.
    • This is not a FCFS litter, and the form is a free-for-all so long as the basics are met.
    • As kits they will NOT know who their father is, but as they grow older there is the possibility of them finding out through plots if wanted.
    • Please remember that they are born out of love and will remain loved by both of their parents, even though they won't know one of them at first, keep this in mind when naming the kits
    • Upon being chosen, if wanted we'll start a family discord to add everyone to

    Swiftfire is gen 1 | Hush is gen 1 | Kits will be gen 2
  • We decided to test something a little bit and see how y'all like it but it's a - mainly - free for all naming list! Some ideas of the type of stuff they'd name their kids are below, but you don't have to stick to those lists if you don't want! Swiftfire will be the main one naming the babies, but Hush would have told her some of the names he would want to name his kids if he could be there for their birth.

    HUSH: Likes names that remind him of Swiftfire;; Roe, Flame, REED, Soft, Dream

    SWIFTFIRE: Likes names that remind her of Hush;; silent, amber, clover, BREAM, marble, fox, patch

    names that remind her of RiverClan;; oak, beach, log, lavender, mist or misty, puddle, and rush

  • personality traits ▹ This young cat is known for their pessimistic behavior. They likes to say they are the voice of reason and logical, but really theyre just a mean cat. Puddle is known for always thinking the worst of situations and often overthinks everything to a point of convincing themselves of things that never would happen. They struggle with making friends and relationships, and often as a kit hid behind Swiftfire cause they dont know how to behave around others. Puddle can be rather honest and blunt, straightforward with their words and never beating around the bush as they hate politeness and rules.

    Puddle is calculating and hot headed as well. They are quick to snap at the others and overall tend to be a grumpus most of the time. Though they are loyal and strong, with great skills in fishing thus far and would perish at the hands of another if it meant the good for Riverclan. He can be very sentimental, however, and likes to keep things he is given whether it be flowers, rocks, scales or whatever. Puddle can also be hopelessly in love and obsessive to a point of never letting this cat out of his sight.

uhuhuh tent track :)

dream/foxkit (yk whole well its a red tabby)

he mostly done :3



QUOTE HERE
Dreamkit . dreampaw . dream???


38ekP6T.png
↳ other names: foxkit, amberkit, or flamekit
— kit of riverclan
— AMAB, he/him (until apprenticeship); unknown sexuality
Swiftfire x Hush, sibling to Roekit & ???kit



lh red tabby w/ low white & duplicated pinnae Dreamkit is a longhaired red tabby with white speckles across his face. His eyes are a dark green, much like his father's, and his ears mimic those of his dad's as well.
↳ carrying dilute / masking black


spacer


( + ) creative, ambitious ( / ) curious ( - ) apathetic, awful w/ words Dreamkit early on holds big dreams, dreaming that they can enter into the high ranks of the clan. He quickly begins to show a creative mind, coming up with fun games to play as kits, and then eventually coming up with creative solutions to problems later in his life. He is curious of the world around him, and curious of his father. He often asks questions, and sometimes they may not be the best things to ask, landing him into trouble or feeling as if he's overstepped a boundary. Dreamkit is also fairly apathetic; his face remains unchanged from a still expression, and he finds it quite hard to properly express his emotions. He's awful with his words, unable to figure out the right one to use or over-explain something he's seen. Most importantly, Dreamkit is also a slow learner, unable to pick things up as quickly as his littermates will.
mannerisms: often mutters to himself as if he is getting the right words to say; also repeats himself like a broken record in the same sentence.
— will sometimes start fights | will end fights | will flee | will sometimes show mercy
— (will) excel at skill(s)



spacer


plots:
all plots are subject to change & are simply here for throwing ideas around :) i am not set on any of these!
— since dreamkit is a slower learner, he definitely doesnt pick up talking right away and will struggle as an apprentice
— because he cant word himself/over explains, it might be cool if his siblings can kinda translate for him/simplify it!
— dreamkit is curious about his father and may ask around to see if anyone knows.
↳ this can lead into a plot where dreamkit actually does go and search for his father.
— being uncomfortable in his own skin and coming out as nonbinary/trans in apprenticeship (likely nonbinary, i've been fighting myself to type they/them the entire time. for realism though, i will be using he/him up until that point. i want dreamkit's coming out to feel right.)
— perhaps losing focus of those big ambitions they had as a kit and going down a different path or something??? im not sure.



spacer


notes/inspos/etc.:
— i keep trying to take inspiration from characters and cant think of one LMAO. i'm thinking like azula (atla), zuko (atla) and also ironically bumi (lok) BUT there's so many thoughts going into him, he's kinda his own thing
— IDKHBTFM as a band/music inspo :)
— color associations: tba

AMBERKIT
SWIFTFIRE XX HUSH | AMAB, HE / HIM | RIVERCLAN KIT | 03 MOONS
" HOWLING LIKE DOGS IN THE LIGHT OF THE MOON "

LONGHAIRED CREAM TABBY TOM WITH LOW WHITE, DUPLICATED PINNAE
Named after his golden appearance, Amberkit is adorned in tufts of cream tabby and white, of which mingle in a splotched fashion. Sunny-fur lays along his back, tail, face, and a single paw. Nimbus-markings predominately reside over his legs, chest, stomach, and muzzle. The partially-cloudy tom appears rather fluffy, as if he'd been taken from the sky itself. As a kit, his fur may often stick out every-which-way after a day of play, but as he grows, billowing fur will carry a more maintained appearance over his river-strong from. His eyes are a soft blue, akin to the sky above him.

Amberkit likes to think he carries a rather handsome appearance, though carries one feature his peers might find peculiar. Atop his head there is not one set of ears but two, as he inherits his unknown father's traits. Both sets — one larger and one smaller — share a cream and white appearance.

With an appearance like his and a lineage partially unknown, Amberkit has a tendency to feel as though he doesn't quite fit in.

Such thinking is cause for his strive to be a great warrior, albeit fueled by his strong-willed demeanor. The kit often prefers to do things his way, with frustration brewing at those who might try to guide him in a different direction. He will be more likely to try and fail with his own ideas first before giving others' ideas a shot. With that, he may be seen as bossy by his peers.

Even so, Amberkit still carries a playful-side. He loves to join in on his peers' games when he can, especially if a competition is laid in front of him. An opportunity to proving himself and any skills he might have gained between rounds of play is one he'll always take, and the prospect of winning only lights a flame within him.

With the nature of his personality, Amberkit might struggle to make friends at first, and will be closest to his siblings first and foremost. He will hold a protective nature toward his family, and in time, any friends he makes as well. If things go awry, he'll be among the first to stand up for them, no matter what.


  • Self-conscious of his ears. Amberkit may go through a phase of trying to hide them with flowers and the like.
    Into his apprenticeship, he might find himself getting in fights, if the wrong face says something about his ears / his siblings / sets him off.
    Will love his mother dearly, but will question her about his father at any opportunity he can. If he learns his ears are inherited from him before he meets his father, he'll be more persistent in his questioning, wanting to meet him and see for himself.
    Would be honored for his warrior name to be akin to his mother's.

  • Personality subject to change depending on aging / IC events!
    POTENTIAL WARRIOR NAMES : Amberlight, Ambersky, Amberflame, etc. Light and flame-adjacent names most likely.

  • NAME — Cloverkit (open to Softkit or Rushkit any name works for me tbh)
    AGE — 03
    GENDER — she-cat
    clan/rank — Riverclan Kit

    appearance — Cloverkit's front legs are mostly orange with white paws. While the rest of her body is mostly black with spots of orange. Her chest and belly are white. She was born small and frail but will quickly grow into the biggest kit of the litter. Cloverkit fur is short and silky, likes to ruffle up her chest and tail to appear bigger. Her voice is monotone and soft.

    >A tortoiseshell with low white and yellowish green eyes. [ref]


    notes
    Likes: Rain, flowers, shells, naps and her family
    Fears: Frogs, birds, bugs, and silence




  • + Calm and Collected
    - Cloverkit maintains a calm and composed demeanor even in the face of chaos. She approaches challenges with a level head and a strategic mindset. It's almost as if she doesn't like displaying big feelings.

    + Loving/outgoing
    - Cloverkit is very trusting and deeply care about other cats around her. The kit enjoys having constant company and is a big fan of gossip, stories, and cheering others up.

    + Ambitious
    - Cloverkit has big dreams for herself and is determined to achieve them. She enjoys challenging herself to face her fears and things that will make her a better 'warrior'.

    - Mischievous
    - Cloverkit he loves playing pranks/scaring on her siblings and other clan-mates. Most of the time it's innocent fun. She has not intention of hurting anyone it's just to get noticed.

    - Influenceable/ gullible
    - She doesn't understand sarcasm or jokes, so if another cat tells her something, she'll 100% believe it. Cloverkit is willing to do whatever is asked of her, so long as they are giving her 100% of their attention .

    - Volatile
    Cloverkit has a habit of bottling up her feelings. At times when it gets too much it'll all come out at once. Normally over something small and not worth the big feeling.



  • SWIFTFIRE XX HUSH — G2
    sibling to Roekit
    friends — to every cat





  • Apprentice:
    The need for attention leads her to be a huge gossip until she ends up hurting someone she cares about. While the need for petty news won't fully go away this trait will develop into being a more friendly jokester and she won't spread misinformation anymore.

    Warrior:
    If she finds out that one of her parents isn't a riverclan cat. Cloverkit will only take it well for her mother's sake. Privately, she'll hate it. She definitely does not want this information to be made public, fearing gossip and judgment for herself and her family. She will avoid getting close to another cat because she's afraid she'll fall in love with the wrong one, very distrustful .

    If not, Cloverkit will be super-work-focused until she finds her love. She is not interested in having her own kits but will be open to adopting them

a runt— starts extremely small as a child and starts to grow more as an apprentice but will be more leg than anything all the way until she's fullgrown. she will be smaller than all her peers and uses her small size to her advantage in different things from fights, hunting/tracking, and anything that is much easier with a smaller body.

SOFTKIT

GENERAL INFO.
name ➸ softkit
soft - picked by her father, inspired by her mother
age ➸ 3 moons
born april 20, 2024 to hush x swiftfire (gen 2)
gender ➸ female, she/her
clan & rank ➸ riverclan kit


APPEARANCE.
looks ➸ long-haired blue tortoiseshell with low white and hazel eyes.
as a kit, softkit's name fits her very well, as she resembles a multi-colored dandelion, with her long fur, while soft, can get kind of crazy. her blue and cream tortie patches mesh together across her pelt, only broken apart by the white splotches across her face, chest and barely dappling her paws. as a kit, she is a bright puffball that bounces around with not a care in the world, and that often leaves her coat to collect all sorts of leaves, flower petals and even moss. her ears sport the duplicated pinnae of her father, while her eyes are green like her mothers, yet much lighter, a soft hazel. nestled between the hazel orbs is a soft pink nose, and long whiskers protruding from her small cheeks.
as she gets older, her cream tortie patches will
spread to become a bit larger, overtaking a little more of her multicolored coat, until she's full grown. her long, soft fur's wild nature will eventually calm and become more manageable as she gets older, though for nostalgia's sake, and possibly because she likes how they look, she may pluck a flower petal or two to place in her locks once in a while. as her fur gets more practical to groom, her slender physique will be more apparent, but hopefully will still keep her from being underestimated in battle.

mutations ➸ duplicated pinnae.
references ➸ i plan on drawing her some art tbh i'm really excited by her character but for now here are two possible references x x



MENTALITY.
personality ➸ playful, clever, naive, a little insecure, fickle, kind, rule follower
from a young age, it's clear that softkit is incredibly playful, always having fun teasing her littermates. she's exceedingly clever, as well, but her naivety can give the opposite impression. she's not great at reading other cats, and usually if she's made fun of she won't realize unless it's obvious. you could say she's a little socially inept. her intelligence usually shines in situations where she must identify a type of fish, or find a specific plant/location by fragrance. despite her pretty appearance, she's pretty insecure as she finds cats to latch her ideals onto (usually older, female cats) and strives to meet the standards she sets. she usually fails to meet these standards because they are impossible (such as having a sleek, darker, mysterious appearance, when she is a bright, puffy cat) but most of them set her up to dream big. she often bounces from dream to dream, her interests as fleeting as the wind, leaving softkit with no real idea of what she actually wants to do. one thing, however, she definitely finds herself not interested in is combat. anytime in the future that softkit finds herself in a combat situation, she gets the willies (lol) aka the jitters or the frights, and struggles to act or think out of an intense fear.
mbti type ➸ gonna do later
alignment ➸ neutral good




OTHER.
plots ➸ none of these are set in stone, kind of just ideas rn as im typing her up!
- might be cool when she gets older to have the realization that she's terrified of fighting/dying @ her first battle
- because of how she constantly changes interests, it might be cool for her to become interested in herbs, start a collection of pebbles and never finish, get really into hunting, and maybe even try out combat (but definitely give that up). hopefully someday she'll find something that fits her
- due to her need to fit in and follow unreasonable standards she sets for herself, she probably won't be too happy when she finds out her father is a rogue. though i do plan on her eventually growing enough to care less about what people think, and by correlation, will eventually come to terms with her father being a rogue.
- maybe following in her mother's footsteps with a forbidden love in the far future
notes ➸ so excited aa! her personality might change a bit as i write with her, usually i get a better feel for a character after i've rped with them a bit

This is a little late, but this is officially closed!
Eo and I are going to discuss apps and post here once they're chosen! Thank you guys for the interest, all the apps are amazing!
 
A huge thank you to everyone who applied to the litter, all your applications were incredible! It was super hard for Tikki and I to pick only two, but we've finally figured out which pair we want to go with!

So, congrats to:
@M0DERND0C with Dreamkit
and @ABRI with Amberkit!

You'll both have a week to set up their accounts before the birthing thread proper, and we should we reaching out with a family discord sometime soon. Again, thank you so much to everyone that applied <3
