So as some of you may know, my character Shellspots has some kits in need of players! I'd love to see these two come to life and watch how their relationship with their mother develops, given her... enthusiastic goals. Here they are!
Note: For the images I've included of them, this is pretty much exactly as I picture them when they're older. I was unable to find any that fit well enough that were also in the right age range.
Heronkit (left) and Minnowkit (right)
Heronkit
Heronkit has been claimed by Riley!
Age: 6 moons
Birth Moon: Thunder Moon 2020
Allegiance: Solitary
Appearance: Heronkit shares the same spotted silver tabby pelt as his mother and sister, but instead of green his eyes are a warm orange-y gold.
Personality:
Heronkit is a gentle soul. While he enjoys the stories and history their mother has taught them, he's not all that hung up on making it a reality. This sweet boy is more than happy to while away his days playing with his mother and sister, and if he meets some new friends during their adventures he won't say no. Heronkit does get a bit embarrassed when his family start talking about the Clans as if they're already real, and sometimes wishes they wouldn't be quite so fanatical about it. He loves them all the same, and if it makes them happy he'll play the part of a fellow Clan cat.
I could see Heronkit potentially becoming a medicine cat down the line, given his gentle nature, or perhaps he'll just be a more laid-back warrior who's more focused on serving his Clan through hunting and teaching young cats than battling for glory. I feel like as he gets older and experiences more of the world he'll naturally distance himself from his mother and sister more, especially with their vastly different personalities.
Minnowkit
Minnowkit has been claimed by Sigh!
Age: 6 moons
Birth Moon: Thunder Moon 2020
Allegiance: Solitary
Appearance: Minnowkit is nearly identical to her mother in every way, apart from her size of course. Down to the spots on her pelt and the green of her eyes, she's a perfect little copy of Shellspots.
Personality:
The polar opposite of her brother, Minnowkit is a little spitfire. She idolizes her mother, and wants to be just like her when she grows up. Minnowkit wholeheartedly believes that she and her family will be part of a Clan someday, and can't wait to be an apprentice. However, her mother has pointed out that there needs to be a Clan first before she can have a mentor, so she's very gung-ho about getting other cats to join them. This kit has a tendency to act first, think second, which can land her in some hot water. She's got a sharp mind though, so when she grows up and learns to harness that potential she'll likely be a force to be reckoned with.
I think Minnowkit could be a really fun character as she develops. I could see her becoming a very valuable warrior to her Clan, and depending on how things go she may even have her eye on the position of deputy. One idea I think might be fun is if as Minnowkit grows older, her reverence for her mother turns into more of a rivalry. Perhaps they have some clashing ideals as Minnowkit grows up and forms her own opinions, and maybe Shellspots is a little too domineering with her notions of what a Clan should be. Definitely not something that has to happen, just an idea that's been niggling in my brain.
If you're interested in playing either of these cuties reply here, send me a PM, or DM me on Discord and we can work something out~!
