THE SIN-EATER * disclaimer his character site isn't close to being done but it does have the most important tidbits like his personality & appearance
hello helloo! i have been meaning to throw this up for a long time however i unfortunately procrastinated on making his character site. i still am but it has enough meat that i am impatient and doing it now. we're working on a deadline here folks! for the record this is a finder for either a romantic partner or a queer platonic partner for wormbite. someone he can fully unmask around.
i want slowburn! mutual understanding and devotion!! a partner in crime foremost before everything ends in disaster because wolfie is chaotic and evil to wormbite in particular. sorry worm, i wrote your death when i was twelve years old i gotta fulfill it. however to do that, i need YOU! yes YOU! to come apply to my finder :3 :33 but before you can you gotta read the guidelines!
note : even if wormbite has genuine romantic feelings, constant loss has made him far too fearful and emotionally constipated to declare someone his official "mate" . it will be left unsaid but understood. he likes to let his actions do the talking anyway
⋆✮⋆. worm can only develop romantic feelings for mlnb & mlm but girlies are welcomed to apply for a queer platonic relationship kinda vibe this is only a finder for a singular partner but he isn't strictly monogamous so he cool if he's getting cared about ok
⋆✮⋆. not the best w/aging but worm is sixty-one (~5.5 years ish) so looking for experienced warriors within 54-70 moons ! !
⋆✮⋆. there's nothing that catches worm's interest more than someone who is hardworking. while pre-made & new characters are both welcomed, bls be aware he'll quickly lose interest if someone frequently misses patrols, doesn't train their apprentice, etc. his loyalty to riverclan comes first always and he expects this of his partner.
⋆✮⋆. adding onto the previous bit, activity is a very large component in my decision. this is a slow-burn & ties into an (perhaps the most) important plot for wormbite !! i cannot write my angsty & silly queer cats properly if they disappear within three months. wolfie wants collaborative storytelling and tasty story development. if you get picked, you're in this with me for the long haul pretty please. speaking of the plot, i will keep my secrets but i do promise to offer cute and silly moments.. but i am also promising horrible doomedness. :3 you will be given further details if picked but there is not quite a happy ending to this. starcrossed for a reason i fear.
⋆✮⋆. wormbite is a traumatized & mentally ill individual --- he doesn't quite form the healthiest attachments and is in fact terrified of doing so because he has lost cats over and over and over. he genuinely views himself as cursed and everything in his life has supported this which means he is going to be difficult to get to open up. dude has thorns. and even after wormbite has opened up -- because i would so love for his partner to be the singular cat he can fully unmask around -- he will have unhealthy behaviors . it's hard to say which will come out within roleplay but his protective nature can be controlling w/him not wanting to lose another cat or he can lash out (verbally) and push others away to try and sever said connection. anything potentially triggering will always be spoilered properly though
⋆✮⋆. if you haven't gathered, my guy is also relatively morally grey. he enters a battle with the goal of killing his opponents. he believes it keeps the paws off his fellow clanmate's paws and serves to protect them by taking out a future danger. his hatred of non clan cats (*this does not apply to riverclanners who have a different background as long as they have successfully proven their loyalty) can make him sarcastic/apathetic at his best and aggressive/violent at his worst. wormbite will do anything for riverclan if he views it has a benefit. younglings are off limit tho. your character doesn't need to agree with wormbite on this but need to be able to reach some type of understanding/mutual ground bc otherwise we gonna have some bumps LOL
⋆✮⋆. to conclude, i am interested in characters who can either match wormbite's energy or provide balance to said energy! what this looks like is up to y'all and i am excited to see what you guys come up with.
i love you all but if you leave placeholders in my thread and do not actually use said placeholder we will FIGHT !!!! with that being said, there is no form because wolfie is too lazy to write one and i also wanna see y'all creative freedom. all i ask is that you add their age & gender + pronouns and uhm, their name somewhere haha!
i will likely choose 2-3 cats to do trial roleplays so i can get a bit of an idea of their dynamic before actually choosing! but even if y'all aren't picked or whatnot, i am always always open for wormbite interactions in general !! esp more buddies.
the tentative deadline is june 17 @ 11:59 pm EST !! if you have any questions, please vm / pm me or contact me on discord. finally, there is no need to quote and/or mention me in this thread!! trust, i will be stalking this thread hungrily for sacrifices.
thank you guys for reading to the bottom of this

Appearance: A large, powerful cat with broad shoulders and a sleek, pure black coat. His most striking feature is his torn-away muzzle, revealing his teeth and gums in a permanent snarl. A large, disfiguring burn mark scars his right hind leg, a constant reminder of his past agony.
Personality:
Cold and Untrusting: Years of abuse and betrayal have left Ember'night guarded and suspicious of everyone he encounters. He keeps his distance, avoids vulnerability, and assumes the worst in others.
Detached and Apathetic: He carries a heavy burden of emotional exhaustion. The constant pressure and recurring trauma have made him numb, rendering most things meaningless. He often appears indifferent, viewing the world through a lens of cynicism.

Loyal to his Clan: Despite his personal struggles, Ember'night remains fiercely loyal to RiverClan. It's one of the few things he holds onto. He sees the clan as his duty and is willing to do anything to protect them.
Hates his Father: His father is the object of his burning hatred. His father inflicted years of physical and emotional abuse upon him, even attempting to feed him to dogs. This hatred is a driving force in his life, shaping his actions and fueling his rage.
Cares for his Brother: His brother is one of the few beings he truly cares for. He feels the need to protect him from the world.

Fears:
Drowning: His sister's death haunts him, and he is terrified of being submerged in water.
Betrayal: He fears being hurt and abandoned by those he trusts, reinforcing his reluctance to form close relationships.
Weakness or Vulnerability: He is afraid to show his emotions or admit his struggles, fearing that it will make him a target for exploitation or ridicule.
Overall:
Ember'night is a complex and tragic figure, shaped by trauma and driven by loyalty. He is a formidable warrior, feared and respected by many, but beneath his hardened exterior lies a broken spirit longing for solace and connection.
On the misty bay of the river, two young kits, Ember and Worm, share a bond forged in the innocence of their early days. They play together in the sun-drenched glades, dreaming of becoming the strongest warriors of their clan. But tragedy strikes when Ember's mother passes away, plunging Ember into a deep well of sorrow and anger. As they transition into their apprenticeships, the once inseparable friends find themselves drifting apart, their hearts hardened by grief and resentment. Ember becomes cold and reclusive, while Worm, who has been dealing with his own struggles, tries to reach out but is met with Ember’s icy demeanor.
Time passes, and the clan's leaders assign Ember and Worm to a hunting patrol together, unaware of the emotional chasm that has formed between them. As they set out into the woods, Ember barely recognizes Worm, who has grown and changed during their time apart. The silence between them is thick with unspoken words and unresolved feelings. Ember's initial reaction is to brush off any attempt at reconnecting, reflecting his deep-rooted apathy. However, as they hunt, the familiar scent of Worm triggers memories of their childhood, and Ember's heart stirs with guilt and longing.
During the hunting patrol, they encounter a rival clan’s patrol, leading to a tense standoff. Worm steps forward, instinctively protective of Ember, but Ember, still engulfed in his emotional turmoil, reacts defensively, leading to a misunderstanding. This moment forces Ember to confront the reality of their broken friendship; he realizes that Worm’s loyalty is still strong, even if their connection is frayed. As they return to their camp, Ember feels a mix of frustration and sorrow, stirring within him the remnants of their old bond.
Back at the camp, Ember finds himself unable to shake off the memory of Worm's unwavering support during the confrontation. In a moment of vulnerability, he approaches Worm, surprising them both. They begin to talk, and Ember tentatively shares his feelings of loss and anger. Worm listens, and for the first time in ages, Ember feels seen. Their conversation deepens, and they share stories of their apprenticeships, laughter mingling with sorrow. This rekindling of their friendship marks a pivotal turning point for Ember; he begins to let down his guard, slowly rediscovering the joy of companionship.
As their friendship blossoms again, Ember finds himself battling a mix of emotions. He realizes that his feelings for Worm are resurfacing in a way he can't ignore. However, he becomes fearful, thinking that opening up about his feelings could jeopardize their renewed friendship. Meanwhile, Worm notices Ember’s internal struggle but feels uncertain about how to approach the subject. Their bond, while strengthened, is also fraught with unspoken tension, leading to moments of awkwardness and confusion that mirror the complexities of their past.
oh there's an ace up your sleeve, no idea that I'm in deep
"Starclan truly had their paw's set on making us cross path's again didn't they, worm'bite"
Even after all this time apart ember still remembers the sleepless nights gazing at the stars from the nursery entrance, his blue eyes entranced by their beauty. But then he saw him the walking star, the one who's fur matched the thing he adored and so his kit-like affection was towards the older tom-cat. Worm'bite, or well perhaps worm'paw at that time. The poor apprentice he'd chase after and bug when his mother allowed him out of the nursery. Someone who he trusted. someone he could call his star. But as most things end tragically their story was short lived together. After ember's mother passed away he became reclusive and avoided the stars like a plague, and who was the best star if not his dear friend worm. he too was avoided, anyone who he was close with was avoided at all cost. But he could never fully drag his gaze away from the star furred tom-cat, oh no his gaze remained on him for many moons. Then one day while training as an apprentice he watched as the current dragged his sister under. She never came back up, her body was never found. Now greif stricken and alone he searched frantically for his star but when it came to it, he never approached he watched him quietly from afar. This became a daily thing for ember, if he wasn't working his tail off for his clan he was sitting somewhere listening to the sounds around him or he was gazing after worm'bite.
I dreamed about you nearly every night this week
But as time had passed so had his affection for worm'bite and so his longing gaze vanished replaced with a permanent scowl. His love for the stars long forgotten as well and insead he would spend his every waking moment doing work. If not for his stubborness he would have colapsed a long time ago. Overworking himself had become a daily duty, something to keep his mind off of things. to keep his mind off of him. But the stars had a different idea one that would put him back into worms life for the better or for worse. One morning embers poor soul gets sent out on a hunting patrol and low and behold his luck couldnt get any worse. When out of a blue moon some stranger ( loner ) attacks ember clawing up one of his eyes pretty good before worm swoops in for the rescue. ember ember would have fought off the loner if he wasnt so exaughsted from lack of sleep and over working. Now stuck in the med cats den for a day or two his dreams are filled with a familiar black furred warrior. For days now hes had the same dream and now in debt to worm he would bite his pride and speak to him once more.
do I wanna know, if this feeling goes both ways
Ember long knew since his days of an apprentice that he was utterly head over paws for worm'bite even from a distance his heart ached from being separated . Now with ember struggling to fill the role of not only a father, mentor, and a warrior he was to fill the role of someone who is in debt. Ember vows to pay worm back somehow and so ember talks about it with worm once hes out of the med cats den. This kick starts their new found rusty attempt at what looks to be friends. Though ember does try his best the first few moons to ignore his returning feelings for worm'bite but it becomes somewhat obvious with how laid back he gets around the other warrior. But he never says anything wishing whole heartily that they just remain friends and nothing more. Embers plate was already full with his daily responsibilities of being himself and caring for his kids. Though he does drop a few hints every-now and then.
darling we both know that the nights are made for saying things we cant say tomorrow day
Eventually ember cant take it and spills his confession to worm, it was in an argument ( over something stupid ) and he storms off. Ember goes days without speaking to worm and even goes out of his way to avoid the warrior. Soon enough ember gets confronted by his own family about the situation. Having a talk with his family ember goes back to apologize to worm about what he did and he asks if they could talk about his confession. Ember admits that hes not looking for a mate and that he was taught to die without regrets by his father and his mentor. but if they wanted to be something similar to mates then they can be or if they just want to remain friends thats fine with him as well, after all ember is still in debt to worm.
crawling back to you, ever thought of calling when you've had a few, I'm too busy being yours to fall for someone new
As time goes by with their relationship growing deeper ember confesses about his past and harsh upbringing. he finally talks about the damage his mothers death did and how hes sorry about the distance he put between them. after telling worm about himself he simply ask's one last thing of him. "if something ever happens to me..take care of dog'kit and wisp'paw.. they're not much and dog bites but they're family..and so are you" ember accepts worm as family and asks if he'll look after his family. - add on your plot to the mix ^^
i was originally under the impression jayfrost was a lot younger than he actually is but im gonna preface this application with this warning.]
jayfrost was created as 25 (I think) moons old in early December 2023 meaning he would theoretically be 43ish moons old. however, given I do not want to pass up on this opportunity I have made the decision to pretend I fast aged him in the recent past (which is easy to just say because he was either inactive or I had a massively inaccurate age in his header lol)
lets get the boring stuff out of the way, jayfrost is AMAB and currently goes by he/him, will however transition to he/any in the near future while keeping his identity as male.
he does not have any living family and very few friends.
the past 6+ months of his life were spent trapped at a twoleg place following my scaring everyone by pretending i actually killed him in september-ish lol.
jayfrost, too, is mentally ill and traumatised. to the point where I will have to see how I find my way around with him given the huge hit his almost death did to his already brittle self esteem. hes a quiet and sweet cat, usually keeping out of any drama as far as much as he can. I am uncertain if there might be some trouble in their relationship (be that platonic or romantic) due to their similar coping mechanisms, i dont think itd be a big deal though since his trust issues dont really weigh in much.
he almost died and thinks he should live life as if every day is his last which mostly includes giving others the time of day and his heart another chance at love.
jayfrost just lost pretty much all cats dear to him and would very much be hesitant in fully committing to anyone. for all he knows, garlicfeather and goldfish are simply dead alongside stormstar. its quite hard to really give you a full perspective of how he will act and develop since jay was in my back pocket for a while now n I haven’t gotten the chance to write him much during his rejoining.
this is a wip, I will add onto it later ideally. EDITED: 4th june
