Before you go forward, this project is still in construction! Not everything may be finished! • Bird of Prey • A Shrike Application [ ABOUT ME ] Hello I'm Elm! I'm a writer, artist, and I love reading! I also love rock music, writing horror/fantasy and sometimes drama... I have two cats, Ezran and Rayla (you know their names if you know...). Uh...I'm currently obsessed with the songs Taking what’s not you by TV Girl :D. I love drawing humans and cats, and have started moving to a kinda semi-realistic style...I like story and character creation, like I'll come up with a book idea and then realise I have another 5 ideas as well. Currently being a pro at procrastination. " Who is the shrike? Why are you searching for them? " [ CHARACTER I'M APPLYING FOR ] I'm applying for the guy of cards, the puppeteer, the mastermind of his prey, Shrikekit!! " Don't you know how it acts? It's cruel. " [ PERSONALITY ] [+] Energetic, [=] Charming, [-] Manipulative, stubborn, self-centered, controlling " I don't think it'll change, but who knows. Maybe... " [ FUTURE PRONOUNS + SEXUALITY ] Kit - He's too young to care or think about these factors. Apprentice - Shrike like his pronouns, he/him, they sound strong. But who he likes...uh, is that really important? He pushes away the thought of liking someone, not realising that he likes someone when he does. He is bisexual without his knowledge of him even being bi. Warrior - Shrike finds himself learning more about him, he wants to change. Be more HIM. Feel stronger, like you'v finally found your paws. He thinks about it a lot. Landing on the pronouns He/They and finally realising himself to have slowly changed to be gay. (he stays male throughout his whole life btw) " I wonder how it came to be. At the start of time. " [ HAVE YOU HAD A GEN CHARACTER BEFORE ] Yep! I'v had 3...kinda 4. When I first started, I had Skirmishshadow in Flurryclan. Then I had Pinchcrab in Urchinclan (you may remember his name, he's the one who technically started this family tree!). And then I had Snowflakemoon of Mossclan/Loners. I also had Owlkit, and I really loved the guy, but when it came to rp as him I realised I didn't have it in me to (basically, I can get overwhelmed when rping characters, sometimes I only want to rp one char. Sometimes I feel like I can rp more. But once I have a char I won't kill them on my own, unless I feel it won't hurt anyone if I do.). " We know all about it, all the mysteries discovered. " [ RESEARCH IF NEEDED ] No research needed! " It has family though...it must. Since it needs to feed... " [ FAMILY DYNAMICS ] " It's always on the search though, I fear... " [ ACTIVITY LEVEL ] I'm pretty active, but I'ma say 8.5/10 since sometimes I just don't get on here some days. But mostly I check on scratch everyday! [ OTHER ] Shrike found himself in a dark space. Trees clouded the sky. The moon seemed to silence the whistles of the birds. He didn't know much about this space. Was it in his head? Was he just imagining it? A voice curled around his ear, it was almost like the breeze. "Has your mother told you about us yet?" He paused, his eyes thinning with worry. ᯓ✧【 « song lyrics » 】✧ᯓ ⊱──────────⋆⋅☆⋅⋆──────────⊰ ᴛʜᴀɴᴋs ꜰᴏʀ sᴛᴏᴘᴘɪɴɢ ʙʏ
