BACKSTORY:
[ momo's tags for reference ] Momo and his sibling were born as a pair of well-pampered purebred cats, expected to look down upon the strays that lived in the Twolegplace and carry on their family lineage with pride. When they were adopted out to a family friend living across the street from their parents, visits were still frequent, and over time, Momo's sibling became the favoured child in the eyes of both owner and parent alike. They were seen as being smarter and stronger, and the favouritism was something that Momo noticed and grew to resent about his own sibling. Eventually, Momo was allowed to roam outside and, through sheer luck, found his way to SkyClan where he became a daylight warrior, hiding his association with feral cats from his family and hiding the resentment his family felt for his new friends from his clan.
When Momo starts disappearing more (ie: helping the clan rescue their lost members), his sibling grows suspicious and decides to follow him out to the woods. Just as Momo feels jealousy for the attention his sibling gets, the sibling feels jealousy for the freedoms and purpose that Momo has as a Daylight Warrior. It is that which motivates them to join SkyClan as a Daylight Warrior as well, and though the two siblings likely still love each other, there is unaddressed family trauma and resentment towards each other's circumstances that will have to be explored ICly to establish a stronger bond than the ones provided by their old environment.
GENERAL INFO:
· There is no form, so any type of application is allowed! It is not strictly first come first served as I am interested in a character that will be on the same activity level as Momo (8+ posts a month) but the choosing process will be a day or two max!
· There's no naming theme! Momo was named by his Two-legs after a mixture of the food and the avatar character so presumably the character might have a food or media-themed name too! Please do note that if they become a full SkyClan warrior then their name will have to be changed to be canon compliant!
· The sibling will be 17 moons old as of June 1st and will age realistically on the third of each month!
· Any personality is acceptable as long as the jealousy angle is played upon since it'll be a key theme in the lives of both siblings!
· Any individual plot direction is strictly up to you! Whether the character stays in SkyClan, is a daylight warrior or becomes full-time, etc. I'm mainly interested on my side of things exploring the sibling dynamic!
· Please let me know if you can no longer roleplay this character!
