Crippled Mistclan Kit for Adopt [CLOSED]

[mewmehh]

breathes deeply

OKAY!

So Saltweed of Mistclan has finally had her little legacy babies, one of which I've decided to put up for adoption since I really don't need to be so greedy and keep all the kitties to myself. Thus, Thistlekit will be up for adoption. However, a little information needs to be understood about her before anyone can adopt her.

Saltweed is a warrior who takes her job very seriously. There is no higher purpose for her. Romance and love do not really matter to her, carrying on her lineage and family legacy throughout Mistclan does. However, she will learn to understand platonic, maternal love thanks to Foxkit and Thistlekit.

She had her kits with Troutfang, but only because she respected him as a warrior and believed he would have strong offspring. It was handled in a very professional way, with Troutfang no longer interacting with Saltweed once she conceived. He will not be involved in Foxkit or Thistlekit's upbringing or lives overall.

Saltweed will be a very hands-on parent, taking over as a sort of early mentor figure for the brother and sister. She will be a stern sort of soothing; she will not be the kind to coddle or coo at her babies, but will protect them tooth and nail and act as a kind of helicopter parent. She'll treat them with great respect from birth as if they were already warriors (it wouldn't be surprising if they grew to be a bit pompous.) No one besides maybe the Medicine Cat will have much say in the kits' early upbringing as Saltweed will be very strict in her kits' teachings. Salt will be very blunt and direct, and won't sugarcoat anything she tells her kits, thus she won't stand for it if anyone else does. Foxkit and Thistlekit will be expected to act respectfully, and it will be expected her her babies will be treated in the same manner by anyone else. "Or else you have no business talking to my kits, you drawl dirt-for-brains!!"

Now, on to the star of the thread; Thistlekit!!

• Kitten #2 - Female - "Thistlekit"
[Named after the spiny, thorny plants; Saltweed decided to give her kits strong names.]
Rolled Appearance - Shorthaired lilac spotted rosetted tabby with up to 50% white. This kit has a visible disability.

Thistlekit is a short to medium-furred cat with patches of denser fur like her mother. Similarly to Saltweed, she'll have a lithe, yet compact build and semi-short legs (a trait that they share with their uncle/great uncle Sabletail). She has silvery rosettes against her lilac pelt that often glint oddly in direct sunlight and sharp amber eyes like her father. She has dark ears and a little beauty mark beneath her right eye, and her left hind leg is fairly deformed (the bones appearing almost as if they have folded over themselves in a few places) and incapable of holding her weight. It'll force her to crawl early on, but with Saltweed's early training, Thistlekit will likely be able to move a fair bit better as she grows despite it. However, it is still a wonder if she'll ever become a warrior because of it.

Her personality traits may be as wide and varied as you'd like, but there are still a few traits that I would like her to have, even if only as a kit. Thistlekit will be disciplined and a fair bit high-and-mighty because of her upbringing. She may also have the inklings of bitterness because of her legs, though the severity of this is up to you. She won't have the closest connection with her brother, Foxkit, as he is standoffish on his own and Thistlekit may be a bit spiteful towards him because of the use of of his legs. Please feel free to adapt her however else you'd like!!

This will not be first come, first serve. Because I plan to do a lot of plotting with her and her family members, I may be a little picky with her. At least I'll be looking for a  regularly active member.

[spirited/tunnel-vision/intuitive/perfectionist]

The first thing you'll notice about Thistlekit is that she doesn't back down from a fight, whether it be mental or physical. She's a very spirited and fiery individual and doesn't suffer fools gladly, possibly a trait she inherited from her mother. She will always state her true opinions without sugar-coating, believing that being honest is more important than being kind. Though, that's not to say she isn't kind on occasion, she is, but only to select individuals that receive her seal of approval. To some this would give the impression that Thistlekit is withdrawn and doesn't her true self, she does! She is very open about herself and doesn't hide behind any walls, but who'd have to be particularly special for her to want to put aside time to spend with you, because she won't do that often, or for anyone.

Thistlekit also has a weird ability to guess what others are feeling, it's not a superpower, she's just naturally intuitive, especially when it concerns her. She's not always right, but it's enough for her to decide that her gut feelings are trust-worthy. Along with this, Thistle's also somewhat of a perfectionist, she likes things done the way they are supposed to, by the book, and gets irritated when others try and go off the beaten path for no other reason as for thrills. If a situation is unfair and was dealt with unproperly, she will be the one campaigning for justice, because that's how it's meant to be done, just the same as if a situation desperately called for it, she would be willing to go searching for justice/evidence or anything else needed.

Her relationship with her brother is likely to be strained, she believes him to be undeserving of his legs, which will possibly lead to some deep resentment that will unearth itself much later on in life. However, she will always come to his aid if needed, though she won't let him forget it afterwards, because she also thinks that her family should stick together because, in her mind, they are slightly better than everyone else.

add-ons:

- Language (possibly late apprenticehood)

any ideas for her?:

Thistlekit, then 'paw, has had an argument with her brother or with someone about her brother, and for the first time, decides to leave Mistclan but doesn't get far, in her anger, trips or misteps into some kind of hole far away from camp or any patrol hotspots. She wakes up unable to move, not seriously hurt but maybe just stuck, she knows she'll be okay but she needs to gather up her strength to wedge herself free, this means staying where is for a little longer. Somehow she falls asleep only to wake up to find herself face to face with a fox! This fox is weak and injured, probably chased away by a patrol, for a moment she thinks she'll be an easy snack for it but weirdly the fox lays down and... sleeps?

I haven't figured out the whole plot details yet, but tdlr version, she gains the ability to understand foxes, ironically, and takes it as a sign that she must forgive her brother and heads back to Mistclan as soon as she can.

I was going to do a much longer app but I wanted to get it done asap seeing as some time has passed since you put it up.
