I'm so sorry I poofed, my mom has these meetings with her clients once a month at a building downtown and I had to go, plus there was no Internet there. :c :/ Anyway, here are my ideas... :3 You still on, btw? The first idea I had (I borrowed it from a friend, actually) is where a group of rogues (who had each lost a friend and/or loved one at some point in their lives, either recent or long ago) each receive dreams from their deceased loved ones/friends, and they tell the rogues (individually) to meet in a certain area (idk where) at the full moon (three nights from then) because "war is coming". It takes a lot of persuasion, but they convince the rogues to meet at the spot at the full moon. (Note: Some, or even none of them, have ever met each other before... maybe.) When they arrive they are immediately hostile towards one another (as to be expected), but the spirit cats come and tell them that they must leave their home immediately. The cats protest, and most of them don't believe the spirit cats. (Some even try to convince themselves that they are dreaming.) (Note: Either many rogues come and only a few are "chosen", or the few that come all obey the spirit cats. I also have not thought of why the rogues have to leave. Maybe a fire? Hostile rogues? A long-forgotten prophecy? Idk...) Anyway, the spirit cats tell them that they must head in the direction that the moon rises each night until "the stars fall". (A meteor shower.) (Maybe it will hold a deeper meaning?) Anyway, they are destined to form the beginnings of a Clan. (We'll keep it small, and it won't happen for a HUGE WHILE into the RP.) Another idea I had is we just RP as 2 rogues (one each) and it's sort of "free style", as in there is no plot, but in the end the rogues fall in love and become mates. (Note: I'm, uh... bi... So it doesn't matter to me if a she-cat falls in love with a tom, or... even another she-cat. It's totally your call on this one.) Actually... that's all I have.

Maybe we could do the first one to start with? c:
Going to create my character below.
Name: Ash; Ashley (formerly)
Gender: She-cat
Age: 3 season cycles old (or 28 years old in cat years)
Allegiance: Rogue; kittypet (formerly)
"Status": Bi
Belief(s): None
Resides: With her housefolk in a large Twolegplace that [was] surrounded by forest (formerly); in an abandoned rabbit hole in a large field next to a sparse birch forest (to the North), a river (to the South), and a small Twolegplace (to the East) (current)
Appearance: Ash is a strikingly beautiful she-cat with soft dark gray fur (with a lighter gray belly and chest, light gray paws, a black stripe lining her back from head to tail, a white-tipped tail, and delicate light gray (almost white) stripes lining her sides), and captivating violet eyes. She has triangular ears (her left ear is black; also, a black spot surrounds her left eye), a black nose, long silver whiskers, and overall a beautiful face. She is also quite lithe/slim (although she used to be plumper as a kittypet), with long limbs, a very long, thin tail, somewhat small paws (with no claws), and overall a lithe, curvy, thin frame. She has no visible scars on her body, minus her right ear, which is missing its tip due to a scrap with another rogue. She is also a somewhat small cat.
Personality: Ash (formerly Ashley) used to be your typical kittypet - soft, overly kind, compassionate, quite mouse-brained, and very much unconcerned with the world beyond their "territory". She was very respectable among the local cats, and cats treated her with as much courtesy as she treated them. Now living as a rogue, she has become much much more wary around strangers, and thus barely trusts any cat. She has also lost much of her innocent personality, having become less compassionate and not as gullible as she had once been. She will still help any cat in need, but only if she knows they won't present a threat to her. Behind this "barrier" lies still much of her "old" personality, but some of the traits she has always possessed are her intelligence and ingenuity, her impossible patience, her honesty, and her morals. (For example: she will never kill another cat, at least intentionally. She will also help any cat if they are in pain, if they are starving, etc.) However, she is also quite clumsy, and has the memory of a rabbit sometimes. But something about her personality (and her looks) draws other cats in, and if she is attracted to them, then it's a win-win for both parties.
Mate/Crush/Kits: Her former mate, Dusty, had moved away with his housefolk, leaving Ashley (and Dusty) heartbroken, but at least [she] was not alone. She was pregnant with Dusty's kits, and 2 moons later, she gave birth to just one she-kit, who'm her housefolk named Kathryn. However, she was born 2 moons too early and was really small. Because of this, Ashley nursed her kit longer than usual, all the way up until she was 5 moons old. Tragically, however - at least for Ashley and her daughter - their housefolk had finally found Kathryn a new home. When Kathryn was finished with her nursing session, her new housefolk took her to her new home, and Ashley never forgave them.
Kin: Unknown
Extra Facts: Ash has a serious grudge against Twolegs; she is a poor climber and swimmer, but, after much practice, is an exceptional hunter and a great fighter, driven in part by the rage she still feels for the lost of her mate and kit; when Ash was born, her eyes were gray - for some reason, they slowly became violet as she got older; she thinks that lightning and thunder are "cool"; when hunting, she prefers to ambush her prey (a smart move) she is extremely fast and agile, and can turn on a, erm... dime(?); she is an early riser, and goes to bed late
History: Not much is known about Ash's early life, as she never speaks about her parents or if she had any siblings. If asked, she she simply states, "I was born with a mother and father in a Twolegplace, just like any typical kittypet." She was taken away from her parents at around 5 moons old, and was heart stricken, afraid, and lonely for quite some time; that is, until a pale brown tom literally fell out of a tree in front of her, introduced himself, and dashed off, until to return a few moments later with a plump mouse, or a "late welcoming gift", as he called it. Trying not to hurt the handsome young tom's feelings, she took one small bite from the mouse, and while he wasn't looking, stuffed it down a small gopher hole behind her. They quickly became fast friends, and he came to visit her every day. She learned that he used to be a rogue, but had become a kittypet for a better life (later admitting that his parents and siblings had died by a fox attack, and that he had only survived because he had fallen down a rabbit hole). Soon, she met another cat, an elderly she-cat named Renn, who was virtually blind and deaf in one ear, but always had a tale to tell and some words of wisdom to give. When she was watching Sam, another she-cat, nursing her kits (via a large window), Ashley (perhaps accidentally) admitted to Renn that she had always wanted kits of her own, and that she was beginning to feel attracted towards Dusty. (Ashley and Dusty had known each other for almost a season cycle by now.) Sensing that Ashley was asking for some advice, Renn gave her the most honest answer, and that is to follow her heart. After giving her thanks to Renn, Ashley headed back home, excited to see Dusty again and admit her feelings towards him, although she was a bit nervous if he didn't accept her. That slight anxiety was soon overcame with fear, as Dusty did visit her for 3 days. More days passed, and there was still no sign of him. Fearing the worst (that either he had found another cat to be his mate, or something terrible had happened to him...), Ashley set off, trying to find his housefolks' dwelling (convincing herself that it must not be far from her home). However, she soon became horribly lost, and cried out for help, eventually shouting Dusty's name. In a heartbeat Dusty "came to her rescue", hurrying his way over from behind the corner and looking around for a sign of a hostile cat. Ashley convinced Dusty that nothing was wrong, that she was just lost. As Dusty showed her the way home, he asked Ashley why she was wandering the Twolegplace alone, and she finally admitted that she was looking for him. Dusty apologized quickly, and explained that he had gotten sick and that his housefolk had taken him to the Cutter (and reassuring her that he was "still a tom"). Relieved, Ashley pressed against him, and admitted her feelings for him right then and there. Dusty was overwhelmed with joy, saying that despite he is very confident in almost everything, admitting his feelings towards Ashley was by far the scariest thing he had ever faced, and was somewhat "guilty" that he had no stepped forward. Ashley told him that it didn't matter, and from that day on, he and Dusty were mates. (Dusty also showed her his housefolks' dwelling, which was on the way back to Ashley's home, playfully pointing out to her that she had missed it entirely.) Moons later, Ashley became pregnant with Dusty's kits, and both of them were both super happy and scared at the same time. (But a good kind of scared.) But Dusty never got to see his beloved kits... During their last sunset together (although they had no way of knowing that this would be their final meeting - how could they?), they only got to spent a few minutes with each other, but they both at the very least said to each other, "I love you", before they parted ways. But the next day, and for many days after, Ashley had not seen or heard from Dusty at all. Desperate to find him, she made her way outside of her housefolks' garden and leaped over the fence (despite being a bit plump, especially since she was now heavily expecting kits). But before she could go any further, Renn's voice caught her by surprise. Befuddled at how Renn had made it to Ashley's home (it was almost a block down from Renn's home), she nonetheless listened to her every word very closely. She was immediately heartbroken as Renn told her that Dusty's housefolk had moved away, and had taken Dusty with them. Ashley demanded why Renn had not told her this earlier, but immediately regretted her words and apologized. As if reading her mind, Renn told her she would never find Dusty, as she had seen much of the world, and realized how large it really was. After much arguing, Ashley headed home. It took her almost 2 moons, but she finally accepted the fact that Dusty was not coming back. She knew she had to be strong enough for her kits, and she had them just a week or so later. She gave birth to just one she-kit, however it was 2 moons too early, and thus was really small. Even after when most mothers would wean their kits from her milk, Ashley kept on giving her daughter milk, as she was still very small. 3 moons later, however, tragedy struck again. After Kathryn (Ashley's daughter), who was now 5 moons old (and Ashley probably would have nursed her her for even longer), was finished nursing from her mother, 2 adult housefolk strangers and their kit came into the room and stayed around for a while, before Kathryn and Ashley's resident housefolk came into the den and talked with the other housefolk. Suddenly, one of the housefolk said something to his kit, and the kit picked up Kathryn in its paws and carried her out of the room. Horrified, Ashley bounded forward, but tripped over one of her housefolk's big "feet" (cats don't use that word, obviously) and collided against a wall. She never saw her kit again, and she never forgave her housefolk. She gave them the dirty look whenever she saw them, and refused to eat the food and water they gave to her (most of the time), instead hunting birds and mice outside (mostly unsuccessfully), or even resorting to having some of her own milk. As her hunting got better, she decided she would leave her housefolk for good - to leave the Twolegplace for good - and start a new life elsewhere. She said goodbye to her friends, and to Renn last of all, knowing that it would end up becoming a seemingly endless conversation - and indeed, it did. Renn tried to convince Ashley to forget about the prospect of becoming a rogue, but Ashley would not budge. Having given up (which was almost unknown for Renn), she warned Ashley that life as a rogue is harsh and that there will not be a warm basket and blanket every night, and that food and even water would not be readily available all the time. Ashley countered this by saying she sleeps outside a lot of the time anyway, and that they could hunt pretty well now - plus she had her own milk. Before Ashley (eventually) parted, Renn told her to not forget what it was what made it her a kittypet, and to not let the harsh life as a rogue consume that goodness that resided within her. Ashley, not fully understanding what she had meant, said her final goodbyes and best wishes to Renn before heading off. As Renn had warned her, life as a rogue was quite the opposite of the pampered life of a kittypet. For the first several moons she struggled pretty badly, especially with the arrival and onslaught of leaf-bare. Despite her now adept hunting skills, Ashley (she now called herself simply "Ash"), she had to resort utilizing her milk to fill her up several times (and continued to do so anyway), but by the time she was/is 3 season cycles old (her current age), she has fully adapted to living life as a rogue. Her body has become much sleeker and more lithe, her fighting skills are almost impressive as her hunting skills (although she still nurses herself on occasion, mostly just because she can and/or she wants to), and while she has kept a bit of her compassion and gentleness that she had when she was a kittypet, her attitude also has been forced to adapt to the sudden shift from living as a kittypet to living as a rogue.
Screenname: equinox (or Equinox)
I hope you like my character! c: I actually didn't write it, my older sister (she's 18, and a flippin genius, and has a lot of soul) kinda wrote it for me, although I gave her the basic info, and she did the rest. (I tried writing it by myself, but it turned out horrible...) regardless, most of the credit goes to my sister, and she was the one who came up with the whole, um, nursing thing. Like, I'm 50/50 on it, I'm surprised she put it in, if you want me to take it out, feel free to let me know. I'm honestly okay with it, I suppose, I'll just (obviously) keep it pg13, if you "want" it in) btw, unless you want to, you DO NOT have to make your character's description as long as this one. XD Lol My sister spent over 3 hours working on it, OMG. O_O Yeah... can't wait to hear from you!
also the basic plot is this: our characters (mine is obviously a she-cat, and yours can be either one, I'm bi so I'm fine with it), meet each other (they can fight/compete/one-up each other for a few days if you want). But a bad storm suddenly hits and (maybe?) your character finds his/her way down the rabbit hole where Ash lives (or they hide out in an abandoned Twoleg nest in the middle of the sparse birch forest, until the storm dies down), and they get to know each other. during their time together, they could, like, get to know each other really well and ("eventually") fall in love.
we'll have to keep their romance pg-13, obviously (if you want to go "beyond that age limit" in this RP, if you know what I mean, um... okay then... I'm kinda okay with that, if you want to do that, um... we could do it somewhere else or something. just throwing it out there, in case you ever ask, uh... yeah. )
Can't wait to hear from you!
