Hey so this is a planning page for a new adoption center/ clan/ kit cave. I am not sure how many people still do these but I used to be a member here a long time ago under a very different user name. If you were a member of Glowing paws, Dreaming clan (was also a adoption thing), or any of those like that please visit! We are making a sequel sort of to Glowing paws and it will be due to the cats needing to leave their old territory so you may keep old characters and stuff. Things we are working on: Camp: Abandoned mansion Territory: Overgrown grounds and forest beyond 1.Follow all forum rules. 2.Use acceptable grammar. 3.I am going to assume you know the usual rules that apply to these. Please just don't do any thing I have to call you out for and we won't have a problem. 4.If you want to kit steal ask I will set up some kits for that when some one does ask but please don't steal any of the ones that I have not listed as such. 5.please read the note I will post before listing the kits. 6.Listen to other mods! 7.To become a worker you must adopt a kit from here first! It does not have to be with the cat/animal you want to become a worker but it can be. This rule is to make sure you rp ok and will be at least semi active. Job list: Leaders- There are only three and they work together. Mint and I hold this position and I believe the 3rd slot would go to wild when she shows up. Managers- these are kind of like deputies but IDK if we should still have this position or not. Healers- Medicine cats usually but since we do accept a few other animals the title healer goes better. In this case yes healers are allowed mates and kits. We are an adoption center and it would be odd if they couldn't adopt as well I think plus I just like a little romance in my rps that is not forbidden and this takes care of it. Guards- The animals that protect the clan/center from threats and do patrols and stuff. Rescuers- Originally I had this divided between stealers and savers but really they kind of are all together now. They go out looking for abandoned kits to bring back to the center. (We used to do this by going to fin abandoned threads but IDK if that is still an option... this may be more for rp purposes now.) Prey Hunters- As the name suggest take care of collecting prey since there are so many mouths to feed. Care givers- These animals do the job of queens but they are ind of permanent queens. They take care of all the kits. The only big change here is that males can be in this category too. Stylers- This is one many don't know about. They are surrounded all day by their pots of dye and other things so that they may help breathe life, personality, and color. In to kits with none. What to know how this works? Ask and you shall see... Your characters may do more than one job but please tell me the primary job they do so I can list them as such. As a worker you are also able to make adoptable kits and rp them. Unless asked to please only rp the kits you make. This may change a little in the future. Also we are LGBTQ friendly here so some of our characters may fall in those catagories as well. Scale--- Get away from me! I think you're still scary, but I'm warming up... Still a little wary, but you're cool. Ok, I like you, but not TOO much. I like you a LOT! I LOVE YOU! TAKE ME HOME WITH YOU (at this time, you make take the kit home.)

Well I guess I can go ahead and start laying everything out...

I can probably pull a lot of this from the old center but I want new stuff too.

Hey! What do you need help with? Still reading through the topic between classes.

Post by lorekeeper on Nov 29, 2017 19:11:35 GMT -5
Right now I need a name and territory.
Also you were in my old center so I thought I would see if you wanted to help out with this one and if you have any ideas?
I was thinking of maybe setting us up in an abandoned mansion this time?
And I really like your paradox house idea and my go like your joining post for when a spot opens up.
Edit: Read the post on your den thing first.

Post by mintedstar/fur🦇 on Nov 29, 2017 19:32:28 GMT -5
Read it first! And yeah! I'm interested. I was having a small problem with what to do since people kept turning up to adopt. In the end I sort of was putting up a temp-front page on p. 30. Monochrome and Sparkly seemed very interested in becoming helpers, and Monochrome had, like, just gotten Frozenkit to: And that might be fun! I like the thought of having some different buildings to explore. Heh, thanks. I'd like to say The Paradox House was mine, but it's Falcon's and Arlo's (ect.). Hope to see you there, however! All you have to do is post 'hi' in the joining page and they'll PM you when they open again.

So glad to hear that people still care about this!
Ok obviously you have the right to be a mod! I wish there was a way to make us both able to edit the front page so that wouldn't be a problem...
Yeah part of the reason I want a building like that is I love old haunted buildings... Not saying this one is haunted but you know. I would like to move Rainshine from leader to something else. Maybe we decided that there should be a trio of leaders or something... IDK
I am not sure if we want the surrounding territory to be a forest or kind of a mix due to it being old mansion grounds.
Honestly you and wild were kind of co-owners anyway.

Post by mintedstar/fur🦇 on Nov 29, 2017 19:46:47 GMT -5
Yeah, too bad. But as of yet, there does not seem to be a way to do that. Agreed! It would be really cool to have that sort of settings. I can just imagine what the outside would look like. Trio of leaders sounds interesting and very original. Yeah, I think it would be fun to have a bit of over-grown mansion grounds as the start of the territory. It would make interesting exploring when kits and those adopting go out into it. Maybe with forest at the edges and stuff. I actually have to poof, but I should be back later tonight.

Post by lorekeeper on Nov 29, 2017 19:52:24 GMT -5
Ok I will see you later then!
Glad you like that idea. We know that most of our characters are a little unusual so the question we have now is how magic or unusual is our new home. I want it to have some mysteries and to start us off like we are all just moved in and not really sure of everything yet so that the characters that are not in the middle of adopting have some plot to follow.

Also got to decide on how and if I am moving over the kit forest game.... Its really easy to implement and gives a random option but not many people did it.

Post by mintedstar/fur🦇 on Nov 29, 2017 22:26:59 GMT -5
I think more people would have done the kit forest game if it wasn't all the way at the bottom of the thread. It was harder to find there and I didn't even know it existed until I actually read all the way through the topic and had been there for a couple of weeks.
I would find it interesting if there was a little touch of the unusual with their new home, as it would add some interesting features to the RP. Get bored? Check out _______. That sort of thing.

Ok so placing the kit forest game closer to the top then? I considered having it run separately once but idk. We could put it after the intro but before the kit list?
We will need to come up with a layout of the camp as well. Maybe having the camp be in a few rooms or one big one at first but more rooms open up as they explore.
If you want to come up with some territory descriptions that would help. I am going to work on three mansion layout maybe by looking at some actual floor plans. I really want to get this up and running quickly so we have a place to rp. I can not make layouts though so i may just not use one for a little bit.

Yeah, that's a good idea. I don't think it would get as much activity if it was on a separate page, but that's just my opinion.
Yeah, that's a good idea. Maybe locate them in the main entrance hall and then maybe have staircases upward and a few hallways leading outward?
I can probably come up with a decent description if not an actual picture. I can actually think of some cool things that could be on the grounds, partly over grown (a pavilion, one of those outdoor swings, so overgrown in vines it takes ages for anyone to find, maybe a small duck pound overgrown with weeds (can imagine a cat falling into that, not knowing it was there.)

Post by lorekeeper on Nov 30, 2017 0:55:37 GMT -5
I love that idea! The swing and gazebo and duck pond all sound great. Maybe an over grown family cemetery? Also a garden/hedge maze to find herbs! I trust you on coming up with it.
As for the main floor plan I have some ideas! I think it’s going to be awesome! Tomorrow or today as the case maybe I will try and collect my kit list and decide on my leader character. I am going to have Rainshine just move to caregiver role as she decided that she wanted to focus on that.
You also get a leader. So feel free to pick one of your cats or make a new one.

I was thinking a garden/hedge maze! But I was wondering if that was too much. Didn't think of a family cemetery, but that's a good idea! I can probably draw this. Between getting Holiday gifts done and all. Sounds like a good idea! I'll keep Glade around, as it seemed like he wouldn't be moving any time soon. I'd probably make a new one, as Glade, Lavenderpaw, and Rosepaw are the only three I have. I might steal Hickoryfoot for that position (Hickoryfoot is my OC, who I use in just about every RP) and bring in her brother Elmheart as a hunter or something.

A drawing would be great! I like how this is coming together. I am thinking everyone will undergo a bit of a time skip other than the kits I haven’t used that much. So maybe a moon or 2. I will move glade and the others to my list. I am keeping all descriptions in case but a few character may have been scattered in the move for plot fun.
To sparkly and misty welcome! Happy to have you on board! Right now we are working on territory and camp stuff. Feel free to read what we have and add. Suggestions. Later today when I get off mobile I am going to look through my kit list and see what types of kits I am short on. Also if you plan to join as a worker go ahead and make your description as if you help here on the planning page you don’t have to adopt first to be a worker. I will post a jobs list soon. Anyone able to make banners?

Ok so worker jobs list: Leaders- There are only three and they work together. Mint and I hold this position and I believe the 3rd slot would go to wild when she shows up.
Managers- these are kind of like deputies but IDK if we should still have this position or not. Healers- Medicine cats usually but since we do accept a few other animals the title healer goes better. In this case yes healers are allowed mates and kits. We are an adoption center and it would be odd if they couldn't adopt as well I think plus I just like a little romance in my rps that is not forbidden and this takes care of it. Guards- The animals that protect the clan/center from threats and do patrols and stuff. Rescuers- Originally I had this divided between stealers and savers but really they kind of are all together now. They go out looking for abandoned kits to bring back to the center. (We used to do this by going to fin abandoned threads but IDK if that is still an option... this may be more for rp purposes now.) Prey Hunters- As the name suggest take care of collecting prey since there are so many mouths to feed. Care givers- These animals do the job of queens but they are ind of permanent queens. They take care of all the kits. The only big change here is that males can be in this category too. Stylers- This is one many don't know about. They are surrounded all day by their pots of dye and other things so that they may help breathe life, personality, and color. In to kits with none. What to know how this works? Ask and you shall see...
Your characters may do more than one job but please tell me the primary job they do so I can list them as such. As a worker you are also able to make adoptable kits and rp them. Unless asked to please only rp the kits you make. This may change a little in the future. Also we are LGBTQ friendly here so some of our characters may fall in those catagories as well.

Mansion areas:
The foyer of the abandoned manner is the first place the cats entered as they were able to come through a small gap that used to hold a decorative window piece next to the main door. Inside are two grand stair cases going up. The cats haven't explored the upper rooms to much yet as the stairs are dangerous.
Next to the foyer on the left is an old dinning room with a badly damaged table that has been overturned. The fresh kill pile has been placed here for now and the leaders address the clan from atop one of the few still standing chairs.
The room next to that houses the living room were most of the dens have been made. For now most of the center sleeps together in this room.
The room to the right of the foyer is a sitting room that most of the kits have been using to play and meet adopters in. It was once a summary green but has darkened quite a lot. This however doesn't scare the kits much and has become the favorite place to gather. Unless trying to sneak off an explore.
The room next to the sitting room is the old library. Here the styler set up down stairs and the healers moved their stuff up the old iron stairs to the second floor.

Alright, I'm up and moving-sorta. I can make a banner if you like. Still 'Glowing Paws Adoption Center'?

Do you thing we should keep it Glowing paws or change it? I mean same characters but new setting. We don't have the glowing water anymore though and that was where the name came form.

Post by mintedstar/fur🦇 on Nov 30, 2017 16:45:51 GMT -5
Okay, so Glade's still a caregiver, I'll use Hickoryfoot as Leader, and Elmheart as Prey Hunter. Other than that, I can dig up the kits I made. :3 Get descriptions down for Hickory and Elm.

I think that it would be kept, at least at the start. For RP purposes, at least. I can always make new banners or whatever. Also, do you want to use pictures from the warrior books? Or want stock photos?

I would like it if you can tell me what kits and characters were yours as I don't have them all marked down but I have already moved everything over to a list just incase. Looking forward to the descriptions and I am using Fallenstar as my leader. You will get her background more in-depth latter but she is a former clan leader who's clan was destroyed.
Ok same name then and as for pictures do what you feel as I trust you to decide something cool for us.

Well, Brokenkit was adopted by Sparkly. ^^ And mine are: Holiday Kits: Sal: a bright, spunky, tabby and tan she-kit with a little bob of a tail. Her eyes are deep amber and her fur is glossy and soft. She has a dark gray-black bat shapped mark on her left shoulder. Her eyes are almost always wide with curiosity and she loves riddles. She has two very sharp teeth; just two teeth. Both on the top and they overhang her lip a little. This makes it harder for her to eat, but she doesn’t seem to mind. Bubbling with energy she will need a very active cat to adopt her. Rped by Mint. Level up style. Status: -- Sharppaw: small tom with white, windblown long fur. He has light green eyes and small ears. All in all, a cute little kit. Until he opens his mouth. His mouth is full of teeth even sharper than a normal cats. If anyone cat has seen a shark, that would be what they are reminded of when they look at this kit. He has a tongue as sharp as his teeth and will ridicule even the kindest kit. Can anyone bring out the softer side in this kit? -- Dark sky before dawn (Dark)- A tom kit that no one can see. Ever since coming to the center Dark has been invisible. Sometimes he talks with the other kits or workers, but no one has ever seen what he looks like. He say that he wont turn un-invisible because of how he looks. Can anyone see beauty in this tom kit no one can see? Rped by Minted. Status: seeing tuckercat -- Hollykit- A black she-kit with yellow-amber eyes. She is a little short, but her ears are a little larger then normal. A shy, reserved kit. Afraid of loud noises and difficult choices. She's not really keen on being adopted, but then again, she doesn't want to stay at the adoption center all her life either. She was named Hollykit because she was found under a holly bush. rped by Minted. Status: -- Frozenkit- a silver tabby tom with pale, blind blue eyes. He has scars running down his back and hind legs that he can seem to remember getting. After he came here, dropped off by a she-cat coming in from the snow, he has insisted that he can remember nothing of his life before the center. Rped by minted. Status: seeing celestialmonochrome -- Everkit: lithe ginger she-cat with sharp blue eyes. Her pelt has ragged tufts of fur that stick up at odd angles and constant licking wont keep them down. She has a strong sense of justice and right and wrong. She can't stand lies and broken rules, to the point that she has a hard time playing with other kits. Can you help show this little kit that sometimes life isn't as simple as black and white? RPed by minted. Status: -- Kits that are stealable and that can be adopted if they like you: Normal kits: Waspkit: golden tom with amber eyes. Black stripes cover his back and tail. Has a kind and sweet disposition, but might be just a touch naive. -- Watcher: brown tawny owl

Characters are:
Rosepaw- A cream colored she cat with yellow eyes. Can make flowers bloom. Sister to Lavenderpaw.
Lavenderpaw- a light grey she kit with yellow eyes. She can make plants grow. Sister to Rosepaw. Adopted daughters of Glade.
Caregiver:
Glade: Brown and gray tabby tom with a small scar that goes across his muzzle. He has blue-green eyes and white paws. Muscular and longed legged. Rped by Mintedstar/fur
Leader:
Hickoryfoot: Pale tabby she-cat with a cream under-belly and paws. She has a long scar along her flank and a small piece of her left ear is missing. She has grass green eyes. Hickoryfoot is a fun loving she-cat who has a close family bond with Elmheart. She likes to go on adventures and is to be found at the front of any battle. However, she is a little reckless and tends to take on more then she can handle. Hickoryfoot is Asexual/Aromantic, so no love interests are in her future.
Prey hunter:
Elmheart: A brown tom with grey legs, ears, and chest. His muzzle is speckled with black, freckle-like spots and he had pale, teal blue eyes. He really likes to be around his sister, but she tends to drag him into trouble, which he hates. He likes sticking to the rules and playing fair, but tends to find himself in unfriendly situations when he's with Hickoryfoot. He's laid back and kind, willing to help others with their problems. However, he can be a little oblivious to others feelings and tends to not get little hints. Elmheart is Bisexual, and currently has no crush or mate.
Can't remember whether the last clan they were in had me fill out orientation, but I'll guess I'll leave it there...

Ah yes I remember dark! I will mark those on my list so I remember. I am beyond excited to get back to rping again.
feel free to mention or not the orientation. However you want that to be.

Same! I love Glowing Paws. I'll just leave them. My character are almost never in a romance and Elm really could use someone in the future. That just says his preference, so I'll leave it up.
