I even made a meme for this
i'm such a loser but hellooooo
I made like......EDIT:6 characters LOL and they want pals and other things
and I also have a concept™ that I started last time before I dropped off the face of the earth but anyway
For just normal things:
Hywel – my good lad, single boi who really doesn't give a dang about anything, v flirty and carefree on the outside, pretty morally ambiguous and willing to murder on the inside. He's in PI rn and could use some friends or past flings or future flings or just anything that will piss his sister off because he lives for that uwu. He's gay af. Friends, lovers, enemies, anything's good. If you want to have some snarky bants we can make a thread and just keep roasting each other like I do with everyone in my life ♥
Rhiannon – anyone want to get murdered? jk she's beyond that
for now. She's pretty asexual (or well, aromantic mostly) because the only thing she wants is power and to live forever, so like, any intellectual friendships or even cats who want their heart broken because she can't love™, pls volunteer as tribute. Or she could use some rivals. Enemies. Anything actually.
Silverspectre – a mute tom in FallClan! He's selectively mute actually but basically, he spends most of the time alone or daydreaming but he's really lonely on the inside so a cute lil love story might be fun for him ♥
Moonkit - Nightclan! (god finally I'm branching out) but he's a smoll bean who's new and he got abandoned by his dad (yeah daddy issues is a theme I get it) but he's figuring things out and eventually might want to look for his family uwu so if you happen to want to help that journey (even if you're in another clan) or just need pals that happen to be kits.....he's your little fluffy man.
Sunkit – I added them to SummerClan! She needs friends and pals and everything!!! ♥ ♥ uwu
Bermondsey – His whole arch is this concept of a family curse. He's the adopted father of Sun/Moonkit and dropped them off to places that can take care of them, but a fun thing could be that 1) he still cares about them despite his whole 'I have no empathy for anyone' attitude, so blackmail might be fun. Another possibility is that, since his bloodline has been cursed for the last
? generations (since Alistair so like, 3 generations? 4?) he really doesn't want kits. Ever. He's very dramatic about it (THE BLOODLINE ENDS WITH ME!!!!!) but it'd be actually hilarious if he accidentally gets a cat pregnant and he's like DANG IT NOT AGAIN!!!!
THE CULT™
The idea is that Hywel and Rhiannon came from a loch up north of the clans where superstition and magic and all that is about, and they believe in the green man. So like.....midsommar? that kind of stuff. It's an idea from their homeland that if one is killed in a ceremony, their lives can be transferred to others, and the symbol of that is finding leaves in a dead cat's mouth (there are three versions of it, search up the green man!!) and it's a sign from the gods and all. So there's a bunch of cats all over the forest that might be from the cult or are descended from those northerners who were maybe sacrificial lambs who escaped, or cats who were banished, etc. and they're all living happily and peacefully until a cat is found with a symbolic death tied to it, and the rest of the cats who are from there are like oh?
and YAY murder mystery
Also all the characters are tied to tarot cards because why not. Currently we have:
Reynardine – high priestess - Allie's/ @sunlight
Hywel – hanged man – meeee
Rhiannon – magician – meeeeeeeee
Verne – the fool – bauble
Tremayne – emperor –
open to adoption! Niamh – tower – @ian do u want her owo
Tarn – chariot –
open to adoption! DEVIL – a chaos bringer, chaotic and just generally likes to go against authority and do crazy things!! He doesn't have a name so you get to decide!! Big part of the plot since everyone will suspect you're the murderer
DEATH – the murderer. not necessarily evil, just the element of change, so you can make him as evil and dark as you want, but you can also do a whole 'believes it's his duty and responsibility and thinks he's doing the right thing' kind of thang
TAKEN BY SHADOW
JUDGEMENT – similar to Justice, and that's why they get along so well, but their own judgement doesn't focus on a set of rules, but rather their own intuition. They prefer looking at the bigger picture and are a logician. They often look at things in a factual manner, weighing options objectively, which puts them to a disadvantage when it comes to internal reflection. They can often be seen as heartless due to their way of seeing the world.
JUSTICE – the one who holds them all accountable. Having left the cult–though not to necessarily escape–justice is the link that ties them back to their origins. They know the law, that those who do not keep the cult's secrets are sentenced to death, and find themselves torn between their duty and their own senses. They see 'justice' differently than a set of morals, rather they see themselves as the enactor of judgement. They don't do second chances. They don't doubt their decisions. Their single-mindedness will lead them to power or to ruin.
WORLD – seeks purpose, goal oriented, there is a lifelong goal they wish to achieve, and they will do anything to achieve it, even if it hurts others. They see things in completed circles, and have plenty of steps to make sure they can achieve what they want.

Anyway, I'm also down to make new characters so if you have a role to fill, lmk!

@shootten are all the cult members part of PI?
shootten — Today at 12:55 AM
at the moment but they don't have to be!!!
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 12:55 AM
ur wish is my command
shootten — Today at 12:55 AM
my original idea was that they could be spread out, but we just uhhh naturally congregated so far :laughing:
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 12:55 AM
lmao that works, how old are all of them? so i have an idea of how old to make mine
shootten — Today at 12:56 AM
though I'm not sure where @ian is putting theirs
I think they range in ages, Rhiannon's probably about the age of a new hunter/warrior
Hywel's a couple years older since he's from an earlier litter
@sunlight / wof not sure how old Rey is
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 12:57 AM
hmm, i might not have to resurrect him at all then, i thought if they were all kit aged i’d have to but if they’re varied i’ll just keep him the same, he’s already associated with death so
ian — Today at 12:58 AM
prob pi ya
unless u want me to put her in like swift
biyuu⁴⁸ ☆彡 — Today at 1:00 AM
NYESSSS, SWIFT, IN SWIFT.
no put them where you want i just wanted to say that
ian — Today at 1:00 AM
~ * nyesssssssss * ~
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:00 AM
technically speaking my character would make the most sense in Swift since he’s nomadic so i could possibly put him there, but he could also just as easily be a rogue
shootten — Today at 1:01 AM
hell yeah
I think having the somewhat scattered group makes a lot of sense
it'd be fun that they only have faint connections to each other at first but slowly like, find out and strengthen those relationships
and leave a lot of things to the spinny wheel
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:02 AM
so, tell me about this idea
specifically how my character plays his part
is he just going around killing whoever or
shootten — Today at 1:03 AM
there's a couple of ways I thought of this going cos I'm not 100000% set on the details yet
but I know this all starts off with one or two of the characters finding dead bodies of cats with like, plants growing out of their ears and mouth and just, really gruesome images of that, and like
that's super unusual and you'd rarely see this unless it was placed there specifically as a symbol, which is what the group would recognize
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:04 AM
‘cuz the history i already have for my character is a slightly long one and deals with the enchanted forest
shootten — Today at 1:04 AM
and the idea was that each 'dead body' has specific leaves and branches and things that would mean certain messages to the group since they know of this culture
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:04 AM
so i’m trying to figure out how to incorporate that into the lore
shootten — Today at 1:04 AM
ok! that's cool! cos they don't all need to have come from the cult, they just need a connection to it so
maybe their parents were part of it, maybe they were the scapegoats that left because they were going to be sacrificed, maybe they're descended from there, etc.
biyuu⁴⁸ ☆彡 — Today at 1:05 AM
lkr does need more members
shootten — Today at 1:05 AM
but the idea is that the slowly realize this is happening, and one by one kind of come together to try to solve it
biyuu you can join us
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:06 AM
as death tho is he really part of the cult, isn’t he the one leaving the clues for the mystery gang
shootten — Today at 1:06 AM
and the idea is each character's based off a certain trait, and it either contributes or muddles up their solutions
yeah so originally, that's the plan!! but another possibility is that it might not be him, and everyone just assumes because he's the exact fitting image for someone who would do this
biyuu⁴⁸ ☆彡 — Today at 1:07 AM
i could be a part of it :eyes:
shootten — Today at 1:07 AM
so plan a) it is death and he acts completely opposite and kind of tries to trick the others into believing something else, or just generally goes in and causes chaos and acts as the 'leader' but actually tries to break them apart
biyuu⁴⁸ ☆彡 — Today at 1:07 AM
is there a link you can send me or something, i say as if im not about to leave me house for hours
shootten — Today at 1:08 AM
or plan b) everyone knows that he symbolizes death and everyone assumes it's him because how could it not be him??? he fits the exact serial killer personality
but it actually isn't him and it's one of the more 'innocent' cards and plays off the idea that every good trait has its reverse
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:08 AM
hmm... strokes chin
could there be a third option between the two
it’s him but in the way that he’s only pulling the strings on puppets of innocent characters? like a cult inside a cult, breaking the mystery gang apart from the inside out
shootten — Today at 1:10 AM
oooooh that is sexy
yeah cos I quite like the idea of like, reversing it all
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:10 AM
he’s not an innocent cat but he also doesn’t get his paws dirty and if he does that’s when you know you’ve truly f*cked up, that’s who he is as a character
shootten — Today at 1:10 AM
and leaving the actual killer to chance by just doing a
random spinning wheel
like anyone could be the killer and everyone would have a motive but also a reason not to be
so we'd just play by chance
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:11 AM
exactly
shootten — Today at 1:11 AM
like eg. the magician card for rhiannon - magician is all about manifesting which is usually a good trait, it's about getting what they deserve but the dark side is they'll do anything they can to get what they want
oh yeah that sounds hella fun
𝖍𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖍𝖔𝖚𝖓𝖉 ✩ — Today at 1:11 AM
he’s supposed to be a demonic elemental so manipulation’s not outside his archetype
shootten — Today at 1:11 AM
YE
that sounds fun ok i'm going to write that down
