The Caduceus Family adopts (Rhiannon & Rowan & Fog)
BEHOLD! The new adoption thread for Rhiannon and Rowan and now adding Fog!
As a note I am currently RPing and actively maintaining these characters and will continue to do so until I get a person who is passionate about them to take them! These two are important and have connections so I dont want them to be adopted out only to be abandoned, if this occurs I will reclaim them to adopt them out again.
Disclaimers out of the way lets get started! Deigns and art will go with the characters and so you can use them on a site if you get either of them!
Most of the details are on her site but here is the tldr!
Rhiannon is a lifelong kittypet, a purebred show cat she actually won a couple of ribbons as a young cat until things went wrong.
You see she has a minor neurological issue, nothing that impacts her badly but something that knocks her off the show ring. Ive stated it as a small twitch to her back leg she cant control however it can be anything you'd like, just something that is quite frankly insignificant.
The minorness wasnt enough for her owners however and they returned her to her breeder as she was no longer show worthy and, given her breeder would have no use for her either, she was sold as a pet cat to a couple.
This was the best case scenario. Her new owners are hippies living on the ground floor of an apartment complex a block away from a park who happily let her free roam and dont fix her as they thinks cats should live naturally. Rhiannon adores this and her owners, roaming everywhere as she pleases with minor issues due to being a good runner.
This is how she first encountered the clans. She is curious about them, eager to meet cats at the border to talk but unwilling to join and has only gotten 'bitten' for it once and has a small notch on her ear from a shadowclan cat.
She met Nathaniel, her mate, then Snakeheart this way. This was in the last moons of his time as medicine cat and he was horribly depressed and lost in life, debating ending it. Due to this he saw no issue spending time with a kittypet on the border and telling her everything as he idly looked for herbs. He viewed it as leaving at least one cat who understood him and his story before he died, she saw it as trying to save a lost soul.
Rhiannon knows the entirety of Snakehearts life, good and bad and reasoning it for it all in a way no other cat does. She did not condone the actions or even agree but she understood and cared for him regardless and soon talked him into not doing anything drastic and instead just leaving the clan with her.
So he did. The two left and returned to her housefolk who adopted and renamed Nathaniel and soon the two fell in love. She's been helping Nathaniel been better and healthier and they are very comfortable and happy in their relationship. Rhiannon roams a lot while Nathaniel stays at home, meeting outsiders and clan cats alike and has been known to run herb delivery errands when "Nate is being a coward about his past but is still too guilt ridden to stand by. Silly man he is."
The kittypet is not a wilting soft heart. Rhiannon is kind overall but has a spine or steel and a tongue that is as sharp as a knife and she often scolds and bosses around Nathaniel who happily obeys. They like to snark at eachother and while she is giving Rhiannon is whipcord sharp and does not take things laying down.
The two had kittens not long ago, Ginger, Fog, Rowan, and Snowdrop, and are active happy parents to the lot. UPDATE: Owing to Bear setting the twoleg place on fire the families apartment home has burned down and in the process of saving Ginger Rhiannon has picked up a nasty scar which is currently being healed in Caduceus Place alongside a blinded Snowdrop. For now the family, alongside 'uncle' Rushwater and 'cousin' Eaglepaw will recover as outsiders until the twoleg place has recovered from the blaze.
Current things:
She would not break up with Nathaniel for his past. She knows everything and while she'd not happy about parts she understands his reasoning and is working to help him be better.
She will not join the clans. At least not right now. Maybe if some of the kits later join a 'good' clan and she has the ability to sneak off and meet Nathaniel she might later in life but not at current.
She has no collar but Im considering an interesting plot of her getting an air tag harness and having her twolegs pop up at random so if you wanna go forward with that it may be fun!
Now while the kittens did have an original personality proposed they both went missing pretty young and not fully rped so these are more of suggestions or ideas to toy with. You can make the new personality/life anything you want when you adopt them, though please do inform me what your ideas are when you apply! Also Im open for the idea of them joining rc eventually with Rushwater when theyre older and he goes back home.
+ inquisitive +
Always the ever-curious mind, Fox will display a thirst for knowledge from a very young age. She will be curious about all sorts of things and ask lots of questions - everything from how the stars glow at night to how certain plants work to (when she becomes older) why certain cats do certain things (ties into a plot). It will often conflict with her being polite as her need to know everything she can has the ability to have her poking her nose into places it doesn't belong. Fox will have no filter when it comes to these questions either - though as she grows she will learn that this isn't the best way to go about things. + empathetic +
Emotions will be something that's almost overwhelming for Fox in the first couple moons when she starts to discover what they are. They will knock her off her paws, especially when she discovers she can practically feel the pain of others. Because of this she feels very connected very fast to those she meets - happy when they're happy, sad when they're sad. She'll always want to do whatever she can to right wrongs and make others happy - sometimes at the expense of herself. = particular =
Fox has a way of doing things and a way she likes things that is often viewed as organized and specific. From how she likes the way her nest is to favorite prey to specific kinds of rainfall (not overbearing but also not just a measly drizzle). She will develop habits that become part of her everyday life - sweeping around her father's den to keep it clean, making sure everything is in it's place, counting how many paw steps the distance between certain things is. If any of these get disrupted Fox will tend to get irritated and is quick to snap. = competitive =
Driven to succeed and compete with her siblings, Fox will not hesitate to pull them into a race or a game of moss-ball - and will most certainly do what she can to win. At the core of this is the desire to make her parents proud, but Fox truly thrives off of having others to challenge and being challenged herself. She will grow to adore the feeling of adrenaline and will likely hunt down the next instance of it all of her life. - stubborn -
Likely learned from her father she will not be afraid to dig her paws in on certain things and will become an immovable object. Fox will cling to things or places or cats or ideals with her claws fastened within them and refuse to let go or change her mind. If she is forced to let go of them or be removed get ready for the kit-fit of your life - politeness be damned. This will be core trait of who she is and will follow her throughout her life. - abrasive -
Because of her tendency to be stubborn and stick her nose into places it doesn't belong, Fox will come off as rather rude and arrogant at times, though she'll try her best to keep it under control. This will lessen as she grows up and learns how her actions and words affect others, but will land her in hot water as she is growing up.
✦ . ⁺ . ✦ . ⁺ . ✦
A plot idea I had is that because of her inquisitive mind and thirst for knowledge, she'll want to know all about the Clans and her dad's past in them. She will essentially become super-glued to her father and always strive to make him proud of her. Because of this, she would be the cat that Nathanial has his sights set on to take over his healing business one day. Fox finds this boring and wants to do more with her life, but keeps quiet and does what her dad asks of her because she doesn't want to upset him.
When she's old enough to go exploring on her own she runs into a cat from RiverClan. They swap stories for a bit and Fox learns additional information about the Clans from them on top of what Nathanial has already taught her. She goes back amazed and with one dream in mind; to be a warrior. Unbeknownst to her dad and the rest of the family, Fox continues meeting with this Clan cat and grows close to them, and they eventually start to teach her more advanced training than what her dad has taught her.
One day upon leaving to go meet with this Clan cat Fox will discover that they are on a border patrol battle fending off a couple of rogues. In a split decision Fox will leap in to help - only to get badly injured and almost put her friend's life in danger. The friend tries to convince Fox to come back to camp with them, that they can heal her, but she insists that her dad can take care of it. In her mind she'll have frozen though, because while joining a Clan has been something of a dream of hers, she'll feel torn between them and her family.
Returning home, she'll run into her dad who will have been out looking for her. He'll take her back and get her healed up, and eventually after poking and prodding Fox will reveal the details of the fight - and how she's been secretly meeting a Clan cat for the past couple moons (can be edited depending on how things play out!). She'll then confess to her dad that she dreams of being a warrior and doesn't want to take over his den in what will likely be a dramatic moment in their dynamic!
Now while the kittens did have an original personality proposed they both went missing pretty young and not fully rped so these are more of suggestions or ideas to toy with. You can make the new personality/life anything you want when you adopt them, though please do inform me what your ideas are when you apply!
Note: This is the perfect cat if you want survivors guilt given the litter mother and sibling were both badly hurt in the fire while they were safe in the healing den! Also Im open for the idea of them joining rc eventually with Rushwater when theyre older and he goes back home.
Like her name-sake, she has her head in the clouds, and is generally quite a clumsy cat in her distraction, sitting in the way of where people are going, tripping over her own paws, etc. For some reason, her life's ambition seems to be fighting the biggest, most dangerous animal around, and will challenge friend and foe alike to satisfy her thirst for theoretical battle power. This does not go well when she trips over the first branch she finds when stalking her "targets" - though she might outgrow her heavy-handed nature, she likely wont ever pay attention when she is at camp or believes she is out of danger.
Despite her burning ambition to be the protagonist of a shounen anime, fog is incredibly and unnecessarily tight-lipped about her desires, and acts as if she's committing high treason by sneak-attacking her littermates and hunting down rats to fight. Otherwise, fog is generally a delight to be around, if you would describe a delight as a distractible, energetic and triggerhappy kit that keeps jumping at you from various angles to try to violence you.
She could grow up to be a skilful menace, or less skilful menace, though she might pick the wrong battle at some point, and come out of it... scuffed, to say the least.
No form for either of these girls! Just just tell me why you want whatever gal you like, why youd be a good fit and any ideas you have for her in the future!

ROWAN
female - she/her | loner kit
a pretty little fluffball with ginger/orange fur and bright green eyes
I don't really have any plans to her personality changed, but over time I think she'd be a little too immature until it comes to danger and that stuff. She would be the type to always jump into action before thinking about the consequences.
--
Mother - Not as close to her mother as her father, Rowan loves her mother and would like to know everything about her life as well. I think that Rowan would also bug her with questions about nearly every single thing on the planet that could come into her peabrain.
Father - Almost literally glued to her father's side by her insatiable curiosity, Rowan almost constantly bugs him with questions. She has a love of learning about herbs and their uses, and I would love it if this could be developed into a pure love of helping others.
Sitting with her siblings in the garden, she looks out over a little lavender plant and sniffs it. She then sighs as a wave of calm goes over her small body. She wants to play, but this is so comfortable.... Bathing in the sun's golden warmth, she just continues to lay there and sleep. Her pretty green eyes close and she starts to breathe deeply, snoring softly.

She had heard that they needed help. But at the same time she's worried that they will turn her help down because of her half-Clan heritage and her current loner status. She knows where the position of the camp is. But at the same time she knows what it feels like to have your home invaded.
It has always been one of her two dreams. Either to take over her father's little... business of sorts. But at the same time she had always wanted to join one of the Clans. With a soft sigh of both relief and sadness as she paws at the herbs that lay on the ground in front of her pretty, delicate little paws.
But maybe she is too prideful, too arrogant. Or... Is it just an overabundance of ambition.
I do not have many - any? - active characters, first of all. And I need a little bean to take all of my frustrations on. Little Rowan would be a sweet but curious little bean under my possession. I really like the idea of this kit, and I would love if she could be mine. But if you don't want her to be mine after all my history and failed attempts, i think won't really mind.
First of all... You are an amazing person and I'd love to RP with you.
I want Rhihannon reaches for cat
rahh such a cute story! I need a cat that will not be labeled "missing" and also BABIES!!
I've had cats with kits in the past (ahem. minttuft and dancingevenings) however nobody was really every active with them- I was always tied up with roleplays other than the main one ahem. and I think that trying on a new cat would be nice! i'll likely adopt out my old characters and their kits anyway. (wait is arrow. still on the site? their mint's mate's roleplayer lmao) not me rambling off in the parenthesies. also i can give you free art of them all @Rani

BUMP WITH THE ADDITION OF FOG! ALL STILL OPEN FOR ADOPTION WITH ACTIVE FAMILY, CONNECTIONS AND OPPORTUNITIES! Also chance for trauma on the wake of the twoleg place fire!

@Rani you thought you would get away from me (except it was I who fled the scene of the crime)
i'm having a moment of weakness and whether it stays a moment or turns into another 42 years of my life, fog is the cutest and i finally get to learn what became of snake. good for him. good for them. (shame on the twolegs from a veterinary standpoint though lol)
anyhoo.
yes i'd like fog
i think fog's personality is something i've done well with in the past, and the story that develops from her family surviving trauma she herself did not go through might be interesting if there's ever blame on her in the future. i can see a lot of sibling angst if the roleplayer of rowan steers it that way. i'd hope rhiannon's roleplayer wouldn't place the mother in the middle of that, but definitely would be an experience if even her own mom held some form of secret resentment, too.
Up until this point in my whole entry, my cat's been on my one hand fast asleep so you might have noticed no capital letters, just too much for one little plum hand to do. Don't worry about the structure of my posts! (Though I'll admit, I'm no longer used to fluffing up my posts with a whole lot of "this tree looked like x, smelled like y, and sounded like z in the wind that blew gracefully over the lands, giving Fog thoughts of xyz..." between every line of dialogue she has... so I do apologize if posts are SHORT.)
I don't want much drama for Fog, but I would understand that she... Sort of attracts or creates the drama unintentionally. In her head (and she would swear her heart, too), she's larger than life itself and that means she's definitely big enough to confront the gigantic toad that sometimes appears at the edge of the garden after it rains. Or the skunk that waddles through the bushes looking for food. Or the neighbor's grumpy, medium-sized dog whose AOUUUUU reverberates in your chest (think beagle). Or the sudden patrol of battle cats who seem very displeased when Fog challenges the meanest one to a dare (a DOUBLE DOG DARE if they refuse the first time).... No, whatever happens to Fog definitely doesn't happen to Fog because Fog asks for it. Impossible.
To be honest, I'm really just looking for a corner where I can hold onto one character and let them experience their own little life. I don't have big, grandiose schemes for Fog in the big wide world because I kind of don't need that right now haha. I'm hoping that whoever else obtains Fog's family is receptive to a lot of roleplays amongst us few, since Fog won't likely be venturing away to meet everyone she can for the foreseeable future. I still work full time, and most of my free time has been going to reading or to hanging out with friends. So I do just want something I can keep up with, which... I think I can do with Fog. Now, I can't promise Class A roleplay since I haven't touched a cat in a while and think they're silly little urchins who all secretly like a good chin rub. SO I get it if you want to pass Fog to somebody you know will uphold a good standard Warriors-esque roleplay with her!
I just had a moment of weakness while purrusing the site for old time's sake.

Re: The Caduceus Family adopts (Rhiannon & Rowan)
Not looking to adopt them, but I have a kittypet named Fluffy, who happens to be the only cat of a busy office worker who lives alone. He's left at home a lot the time, lonely, and 3 moon old, so I think it'll be fun if he becomes friends with the kitties!
Also, question: are they neutered, or going to be neutered in the future? Fluffy is an expensive breed going to be neutered, but he doesn't know it, so... maybe they could help him, lol.
