Disclaimer: Spooks is a horror-focused character and is evil-aligned. He lives in a haunted home!
Roleplays involving him may contain serious, scary, or uncomfortable topics such as death, violence, and mental distress - posts will be tagged and spoiled!!
-------------------------------
It's a question of whether or not Spooks really exists - rather, it's believed that he's simply a ghost as he is rarely seen. Haunting some poor abandoned two-leg home that sees the occasional passerby once in a blue moon. Will you dare to spend a night in his haunted house?
Spooks is about thirty moons old - he's not known for being charitable or especially accommodating, nor sympathetic of others. The rumours of his property being haunted simply come from his disdain of having humans and other felines around. So, when passerby's try to take shelter in his crumbling house, Spooks does what he can to agitate or scare them into leaving. He's an extreme agoraphobe and has not left the property since he arrived to it. His interests tend to be more macabre - he likes to decorate his home with bones (which helps with scaring other away as well). Despite the ruins that he lives in, Spooks is a quite handsome fella! His social skills are limited though from his days spent alone, but if someone manages to catch his eye they may find him to be more... accepting of their presence. Spooks hardly shows emotion, which may make it difficult to tell how he is really feeling. This can be especially scary when he is upset. If you manage to pull an emotion other than disinterest from him, be proud! That being said, Spooks is prone to bouts of extreme paranoia (typically from insomnia and isolation) which may cause him to become more aggressive at times.
His backstory can be learned through roleplay, if you think you can take on the challenge of getting him to open up!
-------------------------------
Spooks needs some relations!! And some hopeful plotting for the future -
[Family] -
Spooks has no contact with any of his family currently and is not interested in talking to them unless it benefits him. Spooks was born and raised as a loner.
[ Former Mate ] -
Before his long-term isolation, Spooks very much enjoyed the company of this one specific cat. Whether they are dead/alive is up to you!! But the pair would have had kits together in their earlier years. Spooks would have left them shortly after that news. Their relationship is extremely tense - Can be an outsider, kittypet, or former/current clan cat - would need to be AFAB, but any identity is welcome!!
[Children] -
Spooks doesn't have many... not to mention an extreme lack of interest in them. Depending on what happened to his former mate, they would have been raised with them or Spooks would have dumped them to die in the woods. Somewhere between 8-12 moons old and its likely they may not know of his existence/whereabouts (depends on former mate!!) Can be a loner, kittypet, or former/current clan cat.
[Romantic Interests] -
Rare. Unless you are particularly persuasive or interesting it's unlikely he will take any notice. Spooks is attracted to male-presenting/identifying individuals!! He's not very affectionate or loving, and lacks a lot of social awareness - please be aware that he displays toxic behaviors!! He will not leave his home.
[Friends] -
You gotta be an especially heinous or naïve cat to be friends with Spooks. Again, he lacks a lot of emotional attachment and affection. He's more likely to get along with evil & chaotic aligned characters.
[Enemies] -
Plenty of these to go around!! Can be from the past or present, but anyone is welcome!
