♔“I used to rule the world, seas would rise when I gave the word” ♚ ————————————————————————— ➳ About me… ————————————————————————— ⤷ hi hi hi! I’m @HootyTheHootHouse , but my preferred nickname is Val ⤷ ok, let’s see if I remember them: Spinwing of Mossclan (Old age), Rainwhisper of Urchinclan (old age again), Narrownest, also Urchinclan, (personal reasons) and Widowpaw of Urchinclan (bad battle roll) —————————————————————————- ♔ “Now in the morning I sleep alone, sweep the streets I used to own” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳ Roleplay info… —————————————————————————- ⤷ the na ⤷I’ve been on gens for a long time, like, since before Urchinclan was founded. I remember that event so well (I said as a single hair turned grey). As a scratcher, I mostly make warriors content, for example, I write my comic Dawn & Dusk, but I also make other stuff, like my currently nonexistent animated series JACKS! ⤷What are y’all’s (I say y’all unironically, it’s becoming a problem) favourite insect? Mine’s either a centipede, a moth or a butterfly. —————————————————————————- ♔ “I used to roll the dice, feel the fear in my enemies eyes” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳identity… —————————————————————————- ⤷ Sexuality: pan, (i.e. all genders) ⤷ gender: genderfluid ⤷ he/him/she/her ————————————————————————- ♔ “Listen as the crowd would sing〝Now the old king is dead, long live the king〞” ♚ ————————————————————————- ➳ research ————————————————————————- Dolor has Klinefelter’s syndrome, which, contrary to what I first believed when starting this research, is not being intersex. Klinefelter’s is caused by a biological male having an extra X chromosome. This causes a part of the body that I am entirely certain scratch won’t let me say to typically be smaller than average and produce a lot less testosterone. This causes the person affected by it to typically have symptoms including, but not limited to, decreased muscle mass, decreased bone density, fatigue. This means that Dolor will struggle to hunt for long periods of time, and he’ll also struggle to do “high impact” activities, like difficult fights due to her low bone density. He would also likely be infertile or have low fertility. I decided to make her infertile rather than the low fertility thing, meaning that any litters he has in the future would be adopted. —————————————————————————- ♔ “One minute I held the key, next the walls were closed on me” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳ personality —————————————————————————- ⤷ simple: (+) intelligent, strong-willed, driven (=) cynical, ambitious, sways beliefs easily (-) manipulate, power- hungry, socially inept ⤷Detailed: Dolorkit, at first glance, is pretty much the typical quiet kit. He sticks to the sidelines a lot, pretty much only talking to kits outside her litter to spar with. However, she is also extremely driven. He dreams of leading Urchinclan one day, after all, greatness runs in the family. He can be swayed pretty easily, but he’s not stupid. Just completely unable to read social cues. She doesn’t have the most optimistic view on life, seeing everything as cut and dry, plain and simple. Because of this, she knows how to manipulate the cats around her, who needs friends when you have allies, after all? —————————————————————————- ♔ “And I discovered that my castles stand on pillars of salt and pillars of sand.” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳ can’t think of a header for this bit! —————————————————————————- ⤷ Gens means a lot to me as a roleplay. It’s basically how I alleviate stress during things like exam season, or when I’m meant to be doing literally anything else. With Dolorkit, I do plan on grinding the heck out of apt and exp so he doesn’t end up like my last cat (r.i.p Widow) and has a better chance of surviving to warriorhood. ⤷ usually, I try to avoid doing research if I’m honest. I find it pretty stressful to make absolutely certain that I’m portraying the disability correctly. However, this time, I wanted to push myself and I also thought that Dolorkit’s design and name are some of the best I’ve seen in a while. —————————————————————————- ♔ “I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin’ Roman cavalry choirs are singing, ” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳ extra —————————————————————————- ⤷ Clarifying Dolor’s gender, basically the pronouns that she uses will depend on how I’m feeling on the day of the roleplay and should remain consistent in threads. Sometimes he’ll use he/him, other times she/her and sometimes a mixture. —————————————————————————- ♔ “Be my mirror, my sword and shield, my missionaries in a foreign field” ♚ —————————————————————————- ➳ questions —————————————————————————- I actually don’t have any questions, I just want to finish the first chorus.
