Hello! I hope this is the right place to post this :0
I’d like to hop back into roleplaying and I was thinking of making a pair of kits for Fallclan - but I thought it might be more fun to have someone rp one of the kits with me
Background:
Mothkit was born to a loner apparently of Fallclan descent. His mom often told him stories she heard of Fallclan, and Mothkit fell in love with the idea of living in a clan - especially one as noble as Fallclan. As he grew up, he was rather sickly and his mom thought he’d have the best chance of living if she brought them to the clan, where she knew they had medicine cats and would take care of their own. So, she packed up Mothkit and Thornkit and took them on a journey to find Fallclan. However, at one point when they were close to the clan the mother left to find them food and didn’t return. After Thornkit finds some tufts of the mom’s fur and splatters of blood, she figures the mom was killed by another animal and decides to take the lead on getting Mothkit to Fallclan. Eventually they find their way onto Fallclan territory & a warrior picks them up and takes them in.
Both kits are on the older side, with Mothkit being slightly older than Thornkit.
The father was never in the picture and the mom is distantly related to Fallclan.
Mothkit and Thornkit should have a close sibling relationship, although not related by blood.
Mothkit (originally Moth)
basics: male, thick cream white fur with red point coloring, green eyes, on the small side with ears that seem too big for his head, weak as a youth (easily gets sick, small endurance, sensitive to noise and light)
background: born to a loner mother and an absent father, grew up on stories of Fallclan from his mom and fell in love with the idea of clan life. Apparently descended from a Fallclan warrior that left the clan, but he was too young to ask questions and therefore doesn’t know any details. Was lonely until Thornkit became part of their family, and always admired her strength and intense personality. He hates looking weak in front of her because he knows it makes her worry, so he tends to try to hide it when he isn’t feeling well or when he’s upset.
personality: gentle, calm, earnest, trusting, sees the good in others and always tries to find the positive of the situation, wants to be useful, has some insecurities (worries that he holds back the people around him due to his weak disposition), can get frustrated with himself, the type to try to hide his feelings when they’re not positive, always determined to work hard and become a great warrior too
i see Mothkit being weak as a kitten and young apprentice, but he’ll eventually grow out of it. As an adult he may still suffer the rare bout of fatigue, and will always be slightly sensitive to loud noise & light, but should be able to live a normal life otherwise.
Thornkit (originally Thorn)
basics: female, thick brown tabby fur, amber eyes, tall and strong, has a nicked ear she received as a kitten from a cat she tried to steal food from
background: was a scruffy rogue kitten fending for herself when she met Moth and his mother, who were living as loners in an abandoned barn at the edge of the forest. They took her in and she became fiercely loyal to the two of them.
Personality: Protective of Mothkit, wants to be a strong warrior to live up to his dreams, tends to be blunt and socially unaware (doesn’t understand when people get upset at her for not sugar-coating her words), weak to sarcasm and joking, tends to be a lone wolf, a bit stubborn and rash, likes brawling, finds clan life hard to assimilate into, hardworking but not too ambitious - prefers a simple life
I hope to see Thornkit eventually break out of her dependence on Mothkit and find her own dreams and aspirations, although she’ll always love her adoptive brother. Maybe once he starts growing out of his childhood weakness she’ll have to be confronted with the fact that he doesn’t always need her protection and be forced to reflect on herself and find what else is important to herself? Idk man. Just thoughts.

I just thought this duo could be pretty cute and these are the ideas I had for them! I’d be happy to rp either one so if either of them sounds interesting to someone please let me know! Also these are just the ideas I had for them, I think it’s fun to naturally rp characters and see how their personalities grow and what relationships they build and conflicts they find themselves in, so any of this is free to change and evolve, and if you’re interested in taking on one of them and have different ideas for them let me know and we can bounce ideas off of each other
If this was the wrong place to post pls let me know! Otherwise, I’m excited to get back into rp’ing and hope someone is interested in one of these guys ^^
