RIVERCLAN LONER PLOT ADOPTS [CLOSED]

TAGSCurrent Name: hemlock
Future Clan Name: hemlocksnap
Age: 40 - 60 moons, still deciding
Gender: cis male; he / him
Appearance: a shorthaired cream tabby with a severe burn scar on the left side of his face. stylized gray eyes & white markings (toyhouse)
Personality: hemlock is a pleasant man on his surface. he minds his manners, he is witty (perhaps even charming), and he is dedicated to working hard and working well. it is easy to get along with him, as he rarely presents anything to not get along with, aside from some snide remarks here or there. however, this pleasantness is only skin-deep. beneath his surface, hemlock fails to be anything pleasant at all. beneath a well-polished exterior, hemlock is an incredibly judgmental, deceitful, and apathetic individual. empathy does not seem to be a word he is capable of understanding.
Backstory: will elaborate as i think more on it but he came into the ripple colony as an act of self-preservation after losing his previous home with his family to a forest fire. initially a drypaw who has since become used to the water. does not talk about his past, but he meshed into the colony well enough, and has since become at least a consistently loyal presence (though not required to be a well-liked one!). basically the vibe i want to craft is that he came into the colony and has since put on a good face / is a respected member of the community, but internally his loyalties really lie with whoever can keep him safest, so the transition to working with riverclan wont be hard for him at all, outside of learning how to be a warrior.​

Current Name: mouse
Future Clan Name: mousepaw
Age: 5 moons
Gender: cis female
Appearance: a scruffy, long-furred brown spotted tabby with wide yellow eyes and some white spotting. small, compact.
Personality: meant to be developed through rp/be influenced by other characters around her. wry, curious to a nosy degree, opinionated. might take a bit to adjust to the structure of clan life and take it entirely seriously, though she certainly finds it very interesting. gets restless pretty easily and tends to have a lot of excess energy. goes back and forth between engaged/talkative and a more quiet observer. very attached to the other cats in her colony, even any she doesn't necessarily like too much; the colony as a whole is incredibly important to her.
Backstory: born in the ripple colony to a single mother, who died after a couple of moons; a village-raised kit from then on.

Current Name: Deacon
Future Clan Name: TBD
Age: 32 moons
Gender: Demiboy (he/they)
Appearance: Cragbite is tall for a domestic cat, burly in many ways whilst still retaining the athleticism their species is known for. His fur is primarily a pale-fawn colour, darkening into seal patches around the typical areas for a point cat: face, tail, ears, and paws. His fur is medium-lengthed, with longer wisps of it most notable around his tail and chest. Their nose is a very dull pink, and whilst both eyes are an icy blue, one is clouded and unusable from injury. Unable to blink properly, the eye is often kept in a permanent squint.

Also missing an ear on that side of the body, Cragbite possesses a vulnerability on his left side that causes him to sit in unorthodox ways when around others to better assess the world around him. They're scarred on the bridge of their nose and have scars running all the way down the left side of their neck to the clavicle. Other scars line their body more sporadically. Despite those injuries, or perhaps because of them, there is an air of strength to Cragbite. He slouches and slinks about, but no paw ever seems out of place, and with a frequently surly expression, he gives the impression of someone that wants to be left alone.
Personality: Willing to dive headfirst into any confrontation near the point of self-sacrifice, Cragbite has a lot to be angry for and has no qualms about the way the group perceives them because of it. Lawful neutral, they live by their own complex code undefined by others and they follow it even at the threat of consequence. His determination to live his own way makes Cragbite a confident and unconventional individual, happy to go out of his way to find new ways to bond with others and seemingly content with his place in the world.

Cragbite finds it difficult to navigate tense situations or conversations and lacking the understanding that other creatures have of clanlife, he's often passive in politics or drama unless it directly affects someone he cares about. They're good at following orders, often believing in being 'even' with others even at the expense of their own health. Though he attempts to be friendly with others (with varying results), he is coarse of tongue and temper, and creatures unused to such things may find it difficult to befriend them. Loyal to individuals and protective in spite of the betrayals in their past, they are good to those in their circle.
Backstory: Joined the Ripplecolony to repay the favour of being saved after grievous facial injuries following a badger attack. Is very spikey and guarded about their past.
 
Current Name: Rye
Future Clan Name: Ryestalk
Age: 34 moons
Gender: Cis female (She/her)
Appearance: Large, LH chocolate mink with aqua eyes, low white, & a partially-missing tail
Personality: Generally friendly and easy-going, guarded/cautious around new individuals, private about her feelings, often passive & down-to-earth, can be a bit of a people-pleaser so long as it's not actively detrimental to herself, realist & tends to be matter of fact/blunt at times
Backstory: Joined the Ripple Colony at a fairly young age (around 5-6 moons or so?) after losing track of the rest of her family during a rock slide - presumes that she was the only survivor. At first, she stayed only because she had nowhere else to go, but eventually she grew to love the Ripple Colony and chose to stay permanently.

Current Name: Kit (unnamed, responds to “kit”, “kiddo”, “nuisance”
Future Clan Name: undecided for now but will be a clan name
Age: approx 2-3 months
Gender: male
Appearance: a sturdy, broad shouldered black tabby tom with a kind face and loud vocal chords. His eyes are a warm amber. He has white socks on all four paws and a crooked white patch on his chest that seems to resemble a heart
Personality: He has big paws and will grow into an intimidating figure, but the kit has a very friendly, carefree, and warm attitude. He is not the best at hunting or fighting, but he puts his heart into it. Some will say he is not the smartest trout in the river, but his passion makes up for it. He is a little ditzy and boisterous, but he does not mean to get in trouble—he simply gets far too excited. He has thick skin, so if reprimanded he will not be sensitive over it, but he will look at you like a confused puppy as it happens and generally forget the scolding quickly after.
Backstory: orphaned at a young age, did not know his father and his mother is supposed missing or dead
 
Current Name: Bear
Future Clan Name: Bear-something. Bearmoon, Bearstep, Bearrumble, Bearpelt
Age: 22 months
Gender: genderfluid (fem-aligned) — uses any pronouns
Appearance: Tall, bulky longhaired blue and brown tabby with a white underside and impossibly thick fur.
Personality: (link to her bio) the tough but silent type, easily flustered when around people she’s comfortable with but typically a stoic, distant figure. protective of those he cares about but adorably gentle with kits.
Backstory: probably born into the ripple colony, just kind of vibes and wanders around with the group

Current Name: - Snapping [Timber]
Future Clan Name: Up to Cada!
Age: 116 moons
Gender: DMAB male
Appearance: Weathered by time, a once-dark pelt lightened by a dusting of grey and cut by ancient scars, his figure is hardly imposing. Perhaps once he would have been, but by now the chocolate tabby is slow to rise from his nest.
Personality: Timber is a calm and rational man, with a lively spark of protectiveness that, once stirred, is not easy to put out. He is still stubborn despite his age, and believes in tradition and closeness above all else. The vibrancy of his soul is often tempered with the reminder that he can only share his wisdom, which he does...frequently. Perhaps annoyingly frequently at times, to the younger souls.
Backstory: As one of the oldest cats in the Ripple Colony, Timber has seen quite a bit! Most of it has been lost to the memory of others, but not to himself. He has a lot of stories to tell, and does so frequently.

Current Name: Leaf
Future Clan Name: Not sure yet!
Age: 38 moons
Gender: AMAB he/they
Appearance: Short and stocky. Creamy and cinnamon-y hues with warm, bourbon eyes.
Personality: Extroverted but a little too sharp to be friendly. Tends to tailor his quips to his audience, but not always, which wouldn't be an issue if some of his humor didn't seem mean-spirited. An entertainer, though mostly to his own ends/amusement. Generally content with the hierarchy and doesn't have plans for much more than continuing to live. Tends to get into scraps often, but rarely harbors ill-will over getting roughed up.
Backstory: Leaf wasn't born in the Ripple Colony, and the details of his life before depend on the mood he's in, but it's best never to take any at face value. He's spent about a year and a half among the mountain cats, and he has a nose for stability, so he'll go where they do.

Current Name: - Pumpkin
Future Clan Name: Pumpkinfright
Age: - 49 moons old
Gender: - She/her
Appearance: - https://toyhou.se/19428008.14#65833620
Personality: - Easily seen as a sweet molly who has a streak of doing what she deems necessary to keep the colony safe. Those that she deems her family will always be well taken care of and anyone seem as a threat to them or herself dealt with. She never shows how dangerous she can be but she talks with a purpose and never keeps herself too far from the colony save for hunting purposes. Having large ancestral genes the molly is big for her size and she uses that to her advantage. Loyalty is not something programmed into her but learned over time for those that have treated her well enough to gain it from her. The woman is quick to usea silver tongue if necessary, a bit rough around the edges and quite spirited.
Backstory: She used to live on her own with her parents, out in a remote part of the area. It was just the four of them and they lived quite happily till they were discovered by a group of coyotes. Normally they only see one and they never came to close. But this time their were three and they had a want for cat blood. The family was scattered, the screams of cats in the night and by the time day rose silence. A bloodied figure walked haphazardly, not really there. Survival low. But the Ripple Colony found her. So she serves them.
