· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ♬ “Lost my fight with fate.” · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ✶ Hello there, dear reader! This is Bones (or Blue), your wonderful narrator behind all the scenes, and welcome to my application for the headless horseman looking kit: Marrowkit! So, let us do this one more time. I am your local 16-year-old–Jesus H. Christ I am old to be on scratch–and I use any pronouns with a preference of He/Bone/It. While I have not been active in a hot minute, medical problems and high school likes to not let me exist, I am back and here to slay the day away. ✶ I personally have been roleplaying for nearly all my life. Though, when it comes to online and written, a little before COVID is when it all started. Maybe 2018, 2019. Starting with ROBLOX and FANDOM, I have outstretched myself to mostly Minecraft and Chaos. I have been in TFCRP for a long time, more than 5 years by now, with many characters along those years. I am not sure how old they all were, but all got to be warrior or elder warrior age. Nightfog, Ducklingmarsh, Ruepaw (during the first great voyage when all the warrior and apprentice ceremonies got backtracked), Burgeonjay, and Zenithcrown. About one a year if my memory suits me. In general, I have been active on about a 7 out of 10, and I plan to keep that score. · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ♬ “A tug-of-war of leave and stay.” · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ✶ I am applying for Marrowkit, if you skipped over the intro. He is just a little cutie! I did have trouble choosing between the two, but I feel like I had more ideas for the older brother rather than the younger sister. I believe I should get this kit because of my experience and ability to give this kit a full and fulfilling life. As I have said prior, I have been roleplaying for a good portion of my life. Not just roleplaying, but I have been writing stories and making characters I still use today since I was very small. I seem to love suffering creatively in all kinds of ways. Of course, it is all up to you, and there is nothing I can say to truly convince you by just talking good about myself, so onto the actual main course! · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ♬ “I give in, I abdicate.” · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · [+] Perspective, Adept, Resilient ✶ [=] Protective, Unsympathetic, Stubborn ✶ [-] Revengeful, Irascible, Cynical ✶ Standing in the darkness lies a soldier molded to the earth below its claws. Mar has sharp eyes and an even sharper mind, tuned to the world around him. Hard facts and absolutes in what he thrives in, the strategist of any war to come. Even when plans do go wrong, he can quickly reroute, fix things; quick on his haunches to a fault. Marrow can learn things quick, a very quick learner in the eyes of all, but to him it just seems easy. Nothing can really challenge him when it comes to puzzles or learning new skills. He can pick up languages, or even find patterns in things most cats don't even think about looking for patterns in. In battle, invisible or at your nose, he is all or nothing. He fights like he has nothing to lose, lives like there was no tomorrow. No matter how many times he gets thrown down to the grass, he gets back up. No matter what, he will get back up. It doesn't matter if it's a scratch or his heart has been ripped on. He will keep fighting, and you cannot keep him down for long. Being a soldier, he protects those he claims as his own. Doggedly. Physically, verbally, no one is allowed to slander his family, his charges. Mar is not against throwing claws with any cat who even whispers about his charges wrong. And he'll remember. He'll always remember if you did wrong by him, and he will not stop until the record is set straight. Quick to violence usually means quick to anger, and you would be right. Even though he isn't explosive in his anger, he does get angry very quickly and holds it for very long. On another topic, Mar believes all cats are out for themselves. All acts of kindness are done because the cat expects something in return. That is most of the reason why he simply cannot bring himself to care about other people's bad situations. He believes it to be performative, to gain something. He holds most cats to this standard, and even if you've known him his whole life, he might still hold you to this. ✶ ✶ ✶ -The plan is for him to have a crisis about gender when he’s an apprentice, eventually deciding gender is a social construct and it is not a social cat. It would be agender, using It/Neos. - Men. Oh how it loves men. - I definitely want it to be scarred physically at some point. It seems like it would get into fights with claws in its apprentice years over someone looking at its sibling wrong. - It would have the habit of glaring very intensely when uncomfortable, directly at the safe person of that conversation, one of its only tells. - It likes bones. Mouse bones, fish bones, do frogs have bones? It likes collecting them and giving nice bones to family.

It can also cause chronic jaw pain from the way the bones are rubbing up against each other. Outside of that, the overgrown fangs can puncture gums and mess up a cats bite due to swelling and needing to move ones mouth differently already to accommodate the fangs. This will all affect Marrow in many ways. When learning to speak, he will need to form words differently, resulting in a list and some words slurring together also incoherently. It gets better as he's older, but he never gets to fully pronounce words as they're supposed to be pronounced. As he grows and eats solid food, he will also learn that it hurts, and he needs to concentrate on not biting down on his own gums. On bad days, this will curb his appetite. Even on good days, he eats what is strictly necessary, and only small things to make sure he doesn't overwork his jaw with all the chewing. · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ♬ “I'll see you at Heaven's gate.” · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · RAAAAH this took far too long!!! I had fun with this, and I hope you had fun reading it! My health decided I wasn't going to work on this as much as I wanted, but I finally got it finished after an extension and a lot of sleeping in class. I'm tired of going to school sick guys. · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · · ♬ “ 'Cause it's too little, way too late.” · · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·
