Hello there, it's been a while—years actually. I never would have imagined I'd be on the lookout for another successor. Wow, I am ancient... although my twoleg informs me I am not that old considering the ages of leaders in the canon... which I still don't understand more importantly let's get straight to business.
Fallownose, my friend, and dear deputy murdered by Riverscum. I still refuse to believe that his death was deliberately plotted by soulless twolegs out to make my remaining lives nothing but pain and misery. Because that would not make any sense, I mean even when Dawnstar was at her lowest and kidnapped me, she had motivation as insane as it was, what in the world have I done to twolegs to make them want to hurt me like that, intentionally?
But as that will be a mystery I will never solve, the reason, I've gathered you all here is because I need a new deputy. WindClan needs one. Even though I still haven't gotten over Fallownose, RiverClan has been punished, and life must go on.
So here I am searching for my... seventh deputy and hopefully my final. Oh, me, who am I? Well, that's insulting. If you don't know who I am you don't belong here.
Do you have what it takes?
*I want an older cat, not super old cause then they'll die and I'll be back where I started. I want no younger than 30 moons, that's a good age. Not super old but not young enough to be an inexperienced moron.
*I don't want to micromanage but I don't want to be left out of the loop either. My deputy should be able to handle small situations without me stepping in.
*I do not want a deputy who lets me walk over them because of my rank, respect is nice and expected, but I enjoy debating things and opinions. I'm not a dictator. I would like to know what's on my deputy's mind, even if it goes against my initial plans.
*Do not bore me! Those typical tragic backstories, nice guys, or the grumps, even the cold ones, I'll toss you out on your ass. I want a cat with a different personality, unique, something I haven't seen before.
*I need someone I can trust my clan to one day, I don't particularly care much for myself, but my clan is everything to me. This job is often thankless and exhausting, but someone has got to do it.
*If you're going to let your kin and loved ones, come between you and doing what's right for the clan, leave. My life belongs to this clan, if you want a stressless life with a family, you're better off remaining a warrior, this rank has more downs than ups, and you will struggle. You break under pressure, and the clan suffers for it.
*If cats come preaching about strength and making the clan strong, I won't even look at them. I hate the stereotypical morons who believe that the clan needs to sit at the top and be the strongest, I know my clan has an inner strength it doesn't need to be screamed for all to hear.
Got it? Good. Apply?
One second, please..... Servant...... Twoleg..... Girl...... Remove the infernal noisemakers from your ears I am speaking!!! You can't hear me? Fine then, I'm throwing all the hairless rodents you call kittypets outs-- Oh! You can hear me now. I thought so. The servants want to know about the applications.
Very well, so other twolegs, my servant says no forms. I'm not looking at these she is, I'll be making the final decision out of the choices she's settled on.
She wants creativity, you must make the cat stand out to her without being boring. She doesn't care what you do if it is not a basic form or dull. Try not to be too cliche.
All applications must be submitted here, I have things I need my servant to do so don't waste her time looking for your application. Do not quote or mention.
So you're getting seven sunrises, for the twolegs that is... what did you call this moon again, twoleg. July? Yes, July 3rd 11:59 pm CST. What? Nope, I don't understand what that means either, weird twoleg code or something. But that's your time limit to show off. Or at least make your servants make you look good.
Questions? Give them to my servant, I have to lead a clan.
Hello Moon!! It's me!! You're friendly WCO Bean is here to try out for deputy of WC o7 Just wanted to let you know that I SUCK at applications so apologies in advanced skdlfjksd
It would mean a lot if you considered me let alone chose me for the role
Anyway, I wanted to note a couple of things before I start:
-I am currently 12 years old, Turning 13 on the 20th of August. Despite that, I would say I am very mature and stable enough for the role of deputy
-Due to my age, I do not have Discord. However, I plan on getting it as soon as my bday rolls around. Until then, I can use VMs and PMs for communicating.
-I am on here very often, and more often then not write minimum of 100 words for my characters posts. I do not write one liners (In fact, I hate them) !!
-I have been on this site for over three years now, and I am very active!! I promise you I have no plans of leaving anytime soon.
-Perch is a fairly new character, so he doesn't have many posts yet. I am however working on getting his post count up as well!! I myself have 4,000+ posts since me joining in 2021.
Now with that out of the way, onto my application !!
Behind the Scenes
Basic Info***:
***THIS IS NOT THE ACTUAL APPLICATION - THIS IS JUST SOME BASIC NEED-TO-KNOW INFORMATION
The Star
[OOC NOTE: Perch is the one who is speaking]
Question 1: Describe yourself in 3 words
In 3 words? That's not very many but I shall do my best.
First off, I would say that I am very loyal, I will follow my clan and Twilightstar to the ends of the earth, and would gladly give my life for them. I do my best to do what I can for my Clan.
Another word that describes me would probably be responsible. Yeah yeah I know that it's a very basic and broad word, but It's true. I keep up with all my duties, and I do my best to make it to every gathering and meeting. I also stick to the warrior code, but if there is something that is very wrong yet it is still 'allowed due to the code' then I am not afraid to speak up. And I am not afraid to speak up to anyone - Including Twilightstar.
And lastly, I would also say I am a very Patient tom. I do not like to rush things, as If i do mistakes could be made. That also allows me and others to process things a lot easier, making it to where we understand more clearly. Patience can be crucial in some circumstances, and I always make sure to do so.
Question 2: What would be something you strive for as deputy?
Something I would do If chosen for this role, is not to make WindClan the 'most powerful clan,' sure that is reasonable but it is a stupid idea. What I would do however is focus on developing our clan and making it more stable then ever, also assuring that we will be peaceful unless struck. I do not want to fight unnecessary battles, but instead figure out a way to solve it. Under rare conditions [like fallownose's death], I am all for a battle. A clan killed our deputy and deserves to pay. I'm not some sort of heartless monster [Unlike some cats *cough*RiverClan*cough*]
Question 3: How would you work with Twilightstar as a deputy
Well, when she needs help with stuff such as cats slacking off, battle preparations, or anything else, I would gladly lend an ear and give my thoughts. Just because she's my leader doesn't mean that she is always correct, and so I will always tell her when I feel an idea wouldn't work the best and tell her what I think would do better.
Trivia With Perchwind and Bean
Bean and Perch can/will be very active in the role.
True. An hr is my dream and I know that I will be doing everything I can in that role from minor rps to big scale plots, I will be active and lend my ideas !! Both IC and OOC in the role
I have had an hr before.
False. I have never had an hr in my three years on the site, and it has always been a dream/goal of mine to earn one. Trust me when I say if I get chosen I have no intentions of slacking off or being inactive.
I have discord
False !! HOWEVER, In just a month, I will be able to get Discord. August 20th is my 13th birthday, and I will be getting discord as soon as that rolls around.
I am active and responsible.
True. Both me and perch are active members, and Perch and I are both very responsible, I manage my time and make a to-do list of what I need to get done, And I try to help out whenever possible.
NOTE: CREDIT TO @/Dolomedes FOR THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS
How do you plan to live up to Twilightstar’s legacy?
Perch: Well, Twilightstar is a very influential cat, and It will be hard living up to her. However, I will give WindClan my all, just like she has, and It doesn't matter if the clan likes or hates me, it matters if the clan is stable and doesn't fall victim to the instability of other clans. Twilightstar has been leaders for longer then I've been alive, and she has done so much. I want to live up to that as much as I can.
Me: Well, what perch said!! I want to make sure WindClan remains a stable clan like it has been in the past, And I plan to keep perch around for a very long time, maybe longer then twi!! But I respect twi and moon so much and I would just do my best to be as good as a hr as they are.
Why do you think you would make a good deputy rather than a warrior or fury?
Well, I feel deputy has more responsibility, and have to make sure everything is running smoothly in the clan. Fury and Warriors don't have that kind of responsibility. For some reason, I like having stuff i need to do, and deputy is one of the ways that can happen. Plus, deputy has to help with a bunch of ooc stuff as well, which I can generate a bunch of ideas for.
How would you respond if you are not chosen?
Perch and I would probably be a bit disappointed, but Moon and Twi are choosing who will be best for WindClan in the long run. If it is me and perch, then we will be honored. If it is someone else, we would be happy for them just the same.
What have you done for Windclan?
Not much I'd say, Perch is fairly new to WindClan, so there isn't many notable actions so far. Apologies about that if you were looking for stuff like this!!
A Final Note From The Weird Twoleg Girl
Heya Moon [and twi] !! First off i want to thank you for reading my application, I put a lot of work and effort into it. I have been here for three years and I can say I know my way around the site, and I think that I would make a good deputy. I know that I and Perch may not be as well known [or as some like to put it- "popular"], but that isn't what makes a good deputy. A good deputy gives dedication to their role, and uphold their duties. I am very active here on the site, and I can proudly say that I can dedicate my time to fulfilling this role. I worked hard on this application [I take these things very seriously], and it would mean a lot if you considered let alone chose me for this position. If you choose not to, however, I will respect your choice as you are only doing what's best for WindClan.
Appreciate yall lots, and that's all from Bean here <3
