⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Character I'm Applying For ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ * I'm applying for Nightfall! * ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Personality ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ + Loyal, Brave, Empathetic = Curious, Reserved, Assertive - Sarcastic, Insecure, Impulsive ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Detailed Personality ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ Nightfall is a very reserved cat and prefers to stick to people they know or their family knows. They are very loyal to those they are close to, and absolutely hates lying to those cats. They're also extremely empathetic and will likely start crying if you do, so they may avoid cats while they're crying, this may come off as avoidant to those cats, but really they just don't want to risk crying in front of cats. They also very assertive and know what they want but may be a little impulsive towards what they want. They also make impulsive decisions and may say things without thinking about it. They're also extremely sarcastic and it can come off as rude sometimes and they feel extremely bad about it so they try to just stay quiet. They're very curious as well and often will question a lot of things and be very eager to learn about different things like birds and bugs, crystals, herbs and plants, etc. ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Future Gender + Pronouns + Sexuality ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ Nightfall will be cisgender as a kit and use He/Him pronouns, but early apprenticeship to mid apprenticeship will switch to being non-binary, and then late apprenticeship and on, they will be Transfemme and use She/Her, They/Them pronouns. They will be Sapphic their whole life as well. ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Past Gens Characters ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ Yep! I've had quite a few cats within this lineage! As of now, I've had four! ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Research for GAD ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ Nightfall has GAD, so do I, actually. What does that look like? Well, they may anticipate the worst out of a situation and constantly worry about things they really do not need to be worrying about. Like for example, going on patrol they may worry the patrol will be attacked or that their family will be attacked while they're away, they may replay conversations in their head and worry they said something or made a sarcastic remark that hurt the other cat. They will have trouble relaxing and often fidget and won't realize they're doing it, tapping their paws, flicking their tail, they may also flatten their ears when stressed and in their head. They're very jumpy and will often go on walks to clear their head but will jump at the smallest of sounds. They also will constantly apologize for minor things and worry that those they're close to are only pretending to like them. And when they have kits they will be extremely overprotective and worry that they will get hurt or unalived. They will have good and bad days, as well as coping methods they try to use when available, like certain scents they find calms them, and they will likely find a secluded spot by a river or pond to be their own little private getaway spot when things become too much. They will also question StarClan often and wonder if they're even real, or wonder if they're good enough to join StarClan's ranks or will be left to wander the lands. They will also worry that cats think less of them due to their sapphic interests and transfemininity. It will be a big effect on their life, but won't become their whole personality and they will be very confident that they are more than their anxiety. ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Activity Level ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Weekdays: 8/10 Weekends: 3-6/10 ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Dynamic Ideas ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ I personally am extremely excited to have Nightfall find the one cat that they are super close with. They definitely need someone who will be a good support for them and will reassure them constantly in a lot of aspects. Nightfall of course will be forever grateful for this as well and will often bring their person gifts, clean their nest, and bring them prey. I really like the Sunshine x Grumpy/Shy trope for Nightfall and their romantic interest as well, they will likely be very intimidated by the sunshine cat at first and will avoid them but will eventually become comfortable with them and be close with them once they gain Nightfall's trust. ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Future Plans ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ They 100% will be staying wherever Lily stays and will be hopefully very close with their siblings. I will also definitely get them a companion to act as a sort of therapy animal to help with their anxiety. They will also have lots of accessories made of stuff they've collected. ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ Roleplay Examples ⁺˚⋆。°✩₊ ~ Nightfall padded into their family's makeshift little camp, flicking their tail, their starry pelt shimmering in the evening light. They trotted over to their nearest family member and offered them the prey they'd brought back, half worried they'd forgotten which cat it was that didn't like this particular kind of prey, she knew someone did and was pretty sure it wasn't this cat, but what if they rejected their offer? They shook the thought from their mind and tapped their paws absent-mindedly as they waited for the other cat's response~
