THUNDERCLAN | BAYING HOUND x DUKE
HE/IT
LH BLACK SMOKE MAINE COON W/ LOW WHITE, AMBER EYES
carrying cinnamon, sepia, dilute, non-silver, polydactyly; has polydactyly, 50% maine coon
howl is a sturdy kit with a long black smoke pelt, a dark and ethereal coat that shimmers with silver undertones as the light catches it. his fur seems to flow like shadows, giving him an almost ghostly appearance, especially in dim light. the only disruption in the smooth darkness of his pelt is a single streak of white running down the bridge of his nose, a stark contrast that draws attention to his face.
his eyes are a pale amber, almost translucent, with a sharpness that seems out of place in a kit so young. they hold a constant wariness, always watchful, as if he's perpetually on guard against an unseen threat. those eyes miss nothing, absorbing every detail around him, though they often carry a weight of sadness or anger that contrast his tender age.
howl's body, even at a young three months, is already large and sturdy, hinting at the maine coon blood in his veins. he has broad shoulders and strong legs, with paws that are larger than those of most kits his age, not least due to the extra toes on each of his paws. these paws make his steps heavier and more deliberate, as if he's constantly aware of the space he occupies. his build, while not yet fully grown, suggests a future where he'll be a formidable presence, his body shaped by survival and the harsh lessons of his upbringing.
his face is marked by sharp, defined features, with a narrow muzzle and high cheekbones. the white streak on his nose only enhances the intensity of his gaze, giving him a look that is both captivating and more than slightly unsettling. his ears are tall and tufted, perpetually alert, and his whiskers are long and fine, twitching at the slightest movement around him.
when howl speaks, his voice is low and measured, each word chosen carefully, as if he's weighing its importance before allowing it to be heard. there's a hint of roughness to his tone, a result of the many times he's had to suppress emotions, forcing them down until they emerged in clipped, guarded speech. he doesn't waste words, preferring to observe rather than engage in idle chatter.
howl's typical gait is cautious,deliberate. he walks with a heavy tread, his sturdy frame and large paws giving him a steady way of moving through life. when he runs, it's with purpose, each stride powerful but controlled. he moves with the air of someone who's had to be on guard since birth and knows the importance of being prepared.
his scent is a blend of pine needles and damp leaves, like the scent of a forest after rain. it carries a faint undertone of something darker, almost metallic, reminiscent of the fox-burrow he was born in, where the air was thick with the scent of his mother's warning growls and the distant, lingering trace of prey blood.

+ LOYAL + RESILIENTgrowing up under the purview of baying hound, he learned early that the world was a place of constant threat. this upbringing has shaped him into a kit who is perpetually on guard, his every action and word measured with a level of caution far beyond his years. he carries a visible wariness, his amber eyes always scanning his surroundings, wary of potential dangers and hidden motives. this vigilance is not just a habit but a necessity, born from the lessons taught by his mother's cruel demeanor.

because of this, howl is inherently reserved, his emotions tightly controlled and rarely exposed. he speaks with a low, deliberate voice, each word carefully chosen and often laced with an underlying edge of distrust. this guarded nature is a defense mechanism, a way to protect himself from further hurt. howl's interactions are minimal, preferring to observe rather than engage, his silence often speaking volumes more than his words ever could. he is deeply introspective, his thoughts frequently occupied by the shadows of his past and the uncertainty of his present.
underneath this exterior of caution lies a sense of resilience. his upbringing has fostered in him a fierce determination to survive. he has a remarkable ability to adapt and overcome, driven by constitutional strength that keeps him moving forward even when everything around him seems bleak. this resilience manifests in his actions as much as it does in his physical presence, his large and imposing figure.
howl's loyalty, once earned, is unwavering and profound. though he is slow to trust, once he does, he forms a bond that is both fierce and protective. this loyalty is a reflection of his deep-seated need for connection and acceptance, something he has long been deprived of. it is a stark contrast to the coldness he experienced with his mother, highlighting a desire for genuine relationships where he can finally feel safe.
his inner turmoil is palpable, a constant battle between the anger of his past and the longing for a better future. howl often experiences bouts of vulnerability, where his tough exterior cracks and what he dies beneath rises to the surface. it is in these instances that his true self emerges—a young kit grappling with a world that has been unkind, yet still holding onto a fragile hope for a kinder future.

PLOT ONE: howl's deep-seated mistrust is a significant barrier to forming meaningful relationships. at first, he views fallowpaw's rescue and the clan's kindness with skepticism, believing there must be a hidden agenda. his interactions with other kits and the rest of the thunderclanners are fraught with tension, as he struggles to reconcile their supposed care with his ingrained suspicion. this mistrust leads to frequent misunderstandings, as howl's defensive behavior sometimes comes across as hostility. over time, this would develop to focus on howl's gradual integration into thunderclan as he learns to be more open and accept the help he's been provided.
PLOT TWO: his past has left him with a volatile temperament when he feels cornered or threatened. the idea revolves heavily around howl's tendency to react defensively to perceived slights or challenges. his interactions with others might often escalate into heated arguments or physical confrontations, driven by his fear of vulnerability and his instinct to protect himself. these outbursts could lead to strained relationships and potential conflicts between him and his clanmates.
PLOT THREE: as howl adjusts to life in thunderclan, he faces the challenge of defining who he is outside of his past experiences. this would focus on howl's journey to understand himself and his place in the clan. he will grapple with questions about his identity, purpose, and how he fits into the clan's social structure, with him trying to fit himself somewhere in order to figure out who he is and who he wants to be in regards to the future.
