I go by she/her pronouns. Some of my hobbies are roleplaying, arts and crafts, listening to music and running. I’ve been on scratch for around 3 and a bit years (I had an old school account where I learnt the basics of coding) and have been role playing for around 1 and a half years now! -ˋˏ ༻Roleplay Experience༺ ˎˊ- Overall, I’ve been roleplaying since I’ve been 9 (if pretending to be warrior cats with your friends counts lol). I would like to say I’ve improved with my writing and character building but that may be subjective. In Generations, I’ve had a total of 5 characters, each living (mostly) long lives with deep relationships with their families and friends. Lionfang, my first, actually managed to live to a grand total of 86 moons! -ˋˏ ༻ Activity Level ༺ ˎˊ- Lately, I’ve been quite inactive, but I’ve decided it’s time to make a comeback especially with my school holidays approaching. I have a few plans for Houndkit, and I can’t wait to see those ideas come to life! × ❝ A lie, a lullaby ❞ × ╭┈─────── *. * · ╰┈➤ about the kit -ˋˏ ༻Kit I'm applying for༺ ˎˊ- Houndkit! Just look at that cutie! -ˋˏ ༻Why I want the kit & why I should get the kit༺ ˎˊ- ➺ Why I want the kit Well, as I mentioned before, I’ve been wanting to start roleplaying again and Houndkit’s design really caught my eye! His colour palette really tickles something in my brain. Also I’ve been attempting to join the Morphosmile lineage for ages now and this just seems like the perfect opportunity! ➺ Why I should get the kit There’s something incredibly special about creating characters that feel real, and Houndkit has already found a special place in my heart. I care deeply about the characters I write, and I’d love for him to end up with someone who will cherish his journey as much as I already do, if not more. I’ve been roleplaying for a long time and make it a priority to approach every story with respect, consistency, and creativity. I’m active almost daily on Scratch and always aim to give my characters meaningful connections and full, engaging lives. No matter where Houndkit’s path leads, I’d be thrilled and grateful for the chance to be part of it. -ˋˏ ༻Kit's future identity༺ ˎˊ- ➺ Gender + Pronouns ◦ (susceptible to change) ‣ Houndkit will mainly remain as a male throughout kithood through adulthood ➺ Sexuality ‣ Will be mainly androsexual for most of his apprenticehood/rangerhood, but will later learn his love isn’t limited to just gender, identifying as pansexual.
-ˋˏ ༻Personality༺ ˎˊ- ➺ Simple Traits ‣ Positive ◦ loyal, courageous, protective, ‣ Neutral ◦ blunt, adventurous, competitive ‣ Negative ◦ reckless, stubborn, short-tempered ➺ Summary He’s a scrappy, strong-hearted kit who acts before he thinks and lives to prove himself. He might not have the sharpest brain in the den, but his bravery, loyalty, and determination are impossible to ignore. Whether he’s getting into trouble or standing up for someone, he does it with his whole heart, and maybe a bit too much muscle. He’s a future warrior in the making, even if he’s got a lot to learn (mostly about patience, following rules, and keeping his claws to himself). ➺ Detailed Personality Positive ‣ Loyal ◦ faithful and devoted to those he cares about ◦ He’s the kind of kit who would throw himself between a denmate and a hawk without hesitation. His loyalty is unshakable, and once he decides someone’s “his,” he’ll stick by their side like a burr in their pelt. ‣ Courageous ◦ brave in the face of fear or danger ◦ Fear? Never heard of it. Whether it's sneaking past the camp entrance or trying to scare off a fox from the shadows, he’s got the guts of a lion, even if he’s the size of a rabbit. ‣ Protective ◦ feels responsible for keeping others safe ◦ He acts like a tiny bodyguard, always watching for threats (real or imagined) and jumping to defend his siblings or friends. He might even growl at older apprentices if he thinks someone’s being unfair. Neutral ‣ Blunt ◦ says what he’s thinking without much filter ◦ He doesn’t mean to be rude, he just doesn’t see the point in pretending. He’ll tell a queen her tail looks weird or say an elder’s story was boring, without realizing it might hurt their feelings. ‣ Adventurous ◦ eager to explore and discover new things ◦ Rules? Those are just suggestions. He’s always poking his nose where it doesn’t belong, sneaking out of camp, or climbing trees to “see better.” Curiosity and energy drive him more than caution. ‣ Competitive ◦ loves to win and be the best ◦ Whether it’s pouncing on mossballs or mock-fighting with his littermates, he has to come out on top. He takes pride in his strength and skill, even if he’s still just a kit, and sometimes gets moody if he loses. Negative ‣ Reckless ◦ acts without thinking about consequences ◦ He’ll charge into danger with zero plan, convinced he can handle anything. His bravery often becomes a liability, and he’s constantly being dragged back to camp covered in burrs or limping from some stunt. ‣ Stubborn ◦ hates being told what to do or that he’s wrong ◦ Once he digs in his heels, that’s it. He has trouble admitting mistakes or accepting help, even when it’s clear he needs both. ‣ Short-tempered ◦ quick to anger or frustration ◦ He snaps easily, especially when teased or told he’s too young. His anger flares fast and fierce, but it usually fizzles out just as quickly, especially if someone he cares about gets upset. × ❝ And the Hound is howling ❞ × ╭┈─────── *. * · ╰┈➤ Other -ˋˏ ༻Research༺ ˎˊ- ➺ Overgrown Fangs ‣ General information Overgrown fangs (canine teeth) in cats are often caused by dental disease, misalignment, or genetic issues. These teeth are important for eating, grooming, and play. When they grow too long, they can cause pain and lead to further dental complications. ‣ How it will affect Houndkit ⊱ Eating: His fangs may make chewing uncomfortable, especially with dry or hard food. He might eat less or prefer softer options. ⊱ Health: Long fangs can press into gums or other teeth, causing irritation, infections, or misalignment. This can lead to long-term dental problems if untreated. ‣ Sources ⊱ https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/dental-disease-in-cats ⊱ https://www.petmd.com/cat/conditions/mouth/dental-disease-cats ⊱https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC708691/ -ˋˏ ༻Trivia༺ ˎˊ- Favourite Colour: Orange! Like the colour of his mama’s eyes Least Favourite Colour: Blue, don’t ask why. He just decided that he didn’t like it one day Scent: Ocean sea salt and driftwood Likes: His siblings Dislikes: Anyone who’ll be mean to his siblings Wishes: To be the best warrior of the clan Fears/Phobias: His long fangs getting in the way of his training, becoming a medicine cat D&D Alignment: Chaotic neutral -ˋˏ ༻ Future Plans ༺ ˎˊ- Definitely going to buff Houndkit out! I’m planning to roleplay with him at least once a day (thank goodness no more tests and school holidays!!) He’ll take strong inspiration to being after his great great grandfather but may not have the intelligence to pull it off sneakily, so he’ll fit the role of being a personal bodyguard/hitman. -ˋˏ ༻Conclusion༺ ˎˊ- Yeah thanks for reading this! I’m sure that whoever you choose is worthy of Houndkit! I love the little critter with all my heart and I hope he goes to only the best! × ❝ And the Hound is humming you ❞ × ╭┈─────── *. * · ╰┈➤ Credits ➺ Litter host ‣ @Chqrge ➺ Art ‣ Me ➺ Song ‣ And The Hound by Yaelokre
