The Descendants
On a hilltop, in a circle of stones sit countless cats as still as the boulders around them. Each looks as though its pelt is filled with all the stars fallen from the blank sky above. Five sit at the top of the hill, speaking, but you can't make out the words, and so you wander closer. Around you, the silhouettes of the other cats turn to face you with eyes shining with the light of the absent full moon, but as you brush past them the stars in their pelt fade, and so too does the silhouette, until when you reach the top it is only you and the five cats perched atop the granite. You can still hear them speaking, but now their voices are whispers no more audible than the shouts you heard from afar before, surrounding you like wind. There are more than five voices. But when all five cats turn their attention to you the whispers stop, and all five speak as one in their place:
"They will come."
Their gazes weigh down on you as heavy as stones, crushing away your breath, and when you feel you may never breath again you open your eyes, wide awake. You breath in the familiar air of your home, filling your lungs gratefully, the shadows of the dream washed away by the daylight that surrounds you. But even as you go about the rest of your normal day, you can't help but hear in every breath of the wind: they will come.
β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β About This Roleplay
This roleplay takes place long, long after the other Clans have died off, and its members gone their separate ways. Many generations have past, and while some cats still know of the concept of a Clan- many cats living and hunting together for protection- most of the rest of Clan life has been forgotten. The members of StarClan have begun to fade away more and more as they have been forgotten, and even now there is only one bloodline left which is still taught to live by what they can remember of the warrior code. As the last cat left to truly follow the code, when Feather dies she joins the ranks of a dying StarClan. Allowed one last visit with her living kits, she passes on StarClan's desperate plea to them: to find the other Descendants and ensure that the ways of the Clans are not truly forgotten. As the kits- or at least, those who choose to obey their mother's last request- begin their search, other cats with wild hearts and blood of warriors begin to experience strange dreams, with the seemingly-ominous message, "they will come." The question is, will they recognize the seekers when they do come, or will they pass each other by? Will the other Descendants even be willing to sacrifice everything they've known to try to bring back the warrior code?
Of course, cats in this roleplay won't be limited to only those descended from the Great Clans; completely unrelated cats may also take an interest and attempt to join (if the Descendants will let them), or else oppose the formation of a new Clan. The first few cats in the rp should be Feather's kits, though, and even among them they will have differing opinions on whether or not a new Clan should be formed, and how. Ideally there will be 1-3 litters of Feather's offspring (ranging in age from young adult to kit), split between those who want to obey StarClan and form a new Clan, and those who do not, for any variety of reasons (these cats can either choose not to join the Clan, reluctantly join the Clan, or be overtly antagonistic to it later on). Of those who do want to form a Clan, they may have conflicting opinions about how to go about it (for example, whether to ONLY allow true Descendants to join, or whether to allow any cat interested in, regardless of Clan lineage).
As the idea of the Clan grows, so too will the memory of and therefore the power of the unfaded StarClan cats, who may also have their own agendas and opinions in the formation of the new Clan(s), and may occasionally try to influence its living members with visions, omens, and dreams.
β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β Roleplay Rules
β§ Pretty much the usual. Follow forum rules, keep it forum-appropriate, be nice to each other, etc. etc.
β¬ Keep characters realistic in appearance, personality, motivation, etc.
β΅ You don't have to be a perfect writer, but make sure your posts are coherent and leave room for your partner(s) to reply to. This is ideally a slower-paced roleplay with slightly longer posts (outside of fast-paced scenes, of course, like combat or dialogue), but you don't need to write a novel either. A few well thought out paragraphs will do.
β΄ Again, hoping for a more in depth, slower-paced roleplay with longer posts, but try not to vanish for months on end. One or two decent posts every couple days should be sufficient (though try not to hold others up too badly). However, faster-paced scenes with shorter posts are fine when you happen to catch someone online or during scenes where long posts are imprudent.
β― Try not to overwhelm the rp with chat posts- keep the rp going. Obviously, character planning is important, but it's equally important to actually implement those plans!
β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β Environment
To begin with, this roleplay takes place is a relatively standard wilderness, with broad swathes of forest interspersed with open meadows. There is also a river which feeds into a large lake (much larger than the original Clans' lake), with a twolegplace built next to one part of it where kittypets live. The landscape is slightly hilly, with some somewhat rocky hills and ravines, but not to the point of being mountainous. Seasons are a bit extreme, with summers being quite hot and winters being fairly harsh. It is currently late summer.

β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β Descendants
Fox 23 moons. | Aphelyon β§ large, lanky, long-haired ginger tabby tom with light yellow-green eyes and a white belly and tail-tip. His ears are slightly tufted, and he has a thick mane of fur around his neck. β¬ strong-willed, outspoken, and very protective of his family. Does everything he can to keep his younger siblings safe, but can sometimes be too controlling. Very loyal to tradition and has a strong sense of right and wrong. Quite prideful, and a bit sensitive to criticism. β΅ has always been somewhat of the ringleader and defender of his little family group- the first to get into mischief as a kit, the first to chase off potential threats as an adult. Other than a few scraps with other cats, foxes, dogs, and the like, not a whole lot interesting has happened in his short life so far. β mother is Feather. Siblings are Magpie, Thistle, Hawthorne, Lilith, Pigeon, Shadow, and ?.
Magpie 23 moons. | Aphelyon β§ stout, long-furred black and white she-cat with pale green eyes, three black paws, and a long, white tail. β¬ soft-spoken and kindhearted, but not one to be pushed around despite her meek demeanor. Very compassionate and always wants to see the best in others, but protective her family and not one to be underestimated if she is crossed. However, she tends to keep her opinions to herself and is generally non-confrontational, especially when it comes to her family, though she tries to solve all of their problems from the sidelines. β΅ a scrap with a dog when she first started venturing out to hunt left her with a permanent (albeit slight) limp, an aversion to combat, and a substantial fear of dogs. β mother is Feather. Siblings are Fox, Thistle, Hawthorne, Lilith, Pigeon, Shadow, and ?.
Thistle 23 Moons | @nettles β§ large, thick-furred grey tabby tom with pale green eyes and a white muzzle. Has a thick ruff of fur around his neck and long whiskers. β¬ laid-back and usually friendly with others, but can quickly turn stern when it comes to his siblings. Wary of strangers and has a tendency to be overprotective. Commands respect with his affinity for battle and determination. Has a habit of chewing on flower stems and twigs. β΅ part of the same litter as Fox and Magpie, heβs always been a follower but has held on to a protective streak. Heβs always been the last cat to cause trouble and stir things up. He prefers to leave things to Fox. β mother is Feather. siblings are Fox, Magpie, Hawthorne, Lilith, Pigeon, Shadow, and ?
Hawthorne 15 moons | πππ₯ β§ a thick-coated calico molly with pale green eyes and a distinctive scar across her chin from an old scuffle. β¬ free-spirited, stubborn, and somewhat reckless, Hawthorne is a notoriously hard cat to control. She doesn't like being told what to do and thinks she knows best despite not calculating any of her actions, often putting herself, and others, in danger. β΅ from Feather's middle litter, her mother's coddling and overall strictness rubbed off on her the wrong way. She often causes trouble and loves to fight, typically butting heads with her older siblings. disdainful of their overprotective natures. β mother is Feather. Older siblings are Fox, Magpie, and Thistle. Littermate is Lilith. Younger siblings are Shadow and Pigeon.
Lilith 15 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Unlike her littermate, Lilith has short soft fur and barely to no white; except for her left paw and a tiny white patch on her chest. Which is still a pale ginger in color, her vibrant coat resembles a burnt piece of wood that still has embers on it; which isn't exactly spotted. Instead her bright ginger color seamlessly blends with her satin black base coat, she is a lean and graceful she cat that is quick on her paw. Her ears are wide and pointed that stick out at an angle, her rounded facial structure is accented by deep but slightly slanted yellow eyes. . β¬ Lilith can be quite temperamental if you catch her in a bad mood, she is shy at first and doesn't warm up well to others as she is secretive and closed off. She has a great sense of intuition and always trusts her gut, which in turn makes her great at making decisions. She is thoughtful at times and always thinks about what she says carefully, as she can be a bit blunt at times.. β΅ Being from Feather's second litter made her quite entitled, but no where near baby like. She has a tendency to whine and annoy her older siblings, she is her sister's partner in crime; as they caused trouble quite a lot. β Mother is Feather, Older siblings are Fox, Magpie, Thistle. Younger siblings are Pigeon and Shadow, littermate to Hawthorne.
Pigeon 3 moons | πππ₯ β§ a skinny, dark gray tabby tom with white highlights, especially on his face, and golden eyes. β¬ having always been on the skittish side and a natural worrier, Pigeon is fairly responsible for a kit, if not a little cowardly. He has a strong sense of loyalty to his family but has a tendency to get jealous of his "flashier" siblings, especially Shadow, and is a bit desperate to prove his worth to his family. β΅ a kit of Feather's most recent litter. Much more of a follower than a leader, he desperately looks up to his siblings, especially since the death of their mother. β mother is Feather. Older siblings are Fox, Magpie, Thistle, Hawthorne, and Lilith, and littermates are Shadow.
Shadow 3 moons. | Aphelyon β§ somewhat small, long-limbed dark gray-brown tabby tom with with a white muzzle and tail-tip, tufted ears, and orange eyes. β¬ a bit rambunctious and mischievous, with no real sense of danger. Loves to have attention on him and will often do whatever he can to get it. β΅ one of Feather's most recent litter. Has always had a habit of following his older siblings around, especially Fox. β mother is Feather. Siblings Fox, Magipie, Thistle, Hawthorne, Lilith, Pigeon, and ?.
Valentine 17 Moons | @nettles β§ a slim tortoiseshell tom with sleek fur and yellow-green eyes. Has a round face, short whiskers, and distinct ginger toes. β¬ playful and flirty, tendency to be condescending towards younger cats. Enjoys messing with others and unapologetic of his rude attitude. Despite this, he believes itβs all in good fun and seems generally harmless. β΅ a former shelter cat given as a gift to his twoleg, he still holds on to a hint of his wild spirit from his days as an alley cat. β relationships.
Slate 31 moons. | πππ’ππππ β§ Slate is smoky gray colored tom with darker fur. He has a mixture of white along his chest and inner legs. His eyes are green. He is long-legged and slim despite his long fur. β¬ Slate is a calm, collected tom. Heβs patient, but has a limited amount before he becomes annoyed. He is a natural leader, but he does have a little bit an ego and feels he knows best. Heβs not prideful, he just tries to do what he feels is best. β΅ Slate is a direct descendant of SkyClan, though he doesnβt quite know that. He was born and raised as a loner. Heβs had plenty of battles and spats with other cats and feels that he knows how to get around. He currently lives outside of the twoleg place. β Open.
Estelle 36 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Estelle is a lethal, sleek furred snowy white she cat; though she isn't completely white. Faint pale grey tabby marking appear on her legs, slowly fading into her white fur. Her face, ears, haunches and tail grow a bit darker in comparison, the darkest of markings showing up on her face. The color around her haunches and tail become less defined and more smoked out. While her fur may be sleek her tail is quite thick and feather like, she is quite lengthy with elegant features. Upon her face rest eyes the color of the moon, a bright icy blue; a tiny black nose accents this. β¬ Estelle is an open-minded she cat, with great intelligence and wisdom. She is kind yet assertive, as she may have compassion for others; baring the truth comes with great burdens. Estelle is a daydreamer, usually found deep within thought. Which makes her a thoughtful and calm she cat, who doesn't speak carelessly. With time she has grown patient and uses her mind to it's fullest capabilities, by being quick-witted. β΅ Estelle was formally known as a kitty-pet but had lived her life inside and outside, so when her twoleg folk abandoned her; she was able to survive in the wild. This happened shortly before she found the group of cats she is living with now, she was at the age of 34 Moons. β Good friends with Maybe Magpie?.
Lucian 38 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Lucian get's his name from his rather dark appearance and vividly haunting yellowish gold eyes. Although his fur is quite short is it thick and somewhat coarse, he is a burly tom having been quite large since birth. He may be one solid color, but upon his forehead you are able to see dark colored tabby markings that you can also slightly see on his front legs. The most interesting thing about his appearance is his teeth, Lucian was born where his fangs grow longer to the point they stick out making him almost resemble a bat or (vampire). β¬ Despite his name and dark appearance Lucian is rather a humble, protective and caring tom; who surprisingly is shy at first. Most other would deem this trait as being secretive, as he doesn't like meeting new faces. At first he is a tom of a few words, but once he warms up he is more talkative. Though he may not seem like one to worry he is very self conscious and worries about those he cares for quite a bit. Being the sweet tom he is he always puts other before him. β΅ He once lived in the twoleg town that Estelle had lived in, though he never had his own twolegs. Living in the town he found it was easier to be selfish and only care for himself, but then he met Estelle who didn't need anything from him besides a friendship. He was with Estelle the day her twoleg's abandoned her and decided to come with her as she went to live in the forest as now his trusted friend she would need protecting. β Best friend to Estelle, otherwise open.
Tiger (Tig-er) 18 Moons old. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Tiger is quite unique who looks like a mix between a tiger and a leopard, with a complex look. He has a pale ivory base, along his sides, chest, front legs, and half way down his back legs; his rosetta and tiger stripes are all a deep brown. His face and tail are covered in black markings while his hind legs are a sold black. From being an excotic breed he is quite lengthy with a lean build and defined features, with eyes the color of the bright blue moon; icy and sometimes aqua. β¬ With living life to the fullest, Tiger can be quite animated and a little conceited in his abilities. But you have to hand it to him for being brave and courageous, which can sometimes be reckless. Tiger is quite the energetic fellow, needing to keep busy; with the right cat he can talk up a storm. Although he is still quite young, with much to learn; but is quite attentive to his surrounding. β΅ He was born and raised as a loner near the twoleg town, he had to grow up fast as his mother was killed by a monster; leaving behind him and his sister. But it wasn't so bad as he had his sister and made friends with other cat around town. β Ghost is his sibling.
β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β Non-Descendants
Pecan 17 moons. | πππ’ππππ β§ Pecan is a tortoiseshell she-cat with amber eyes. She has a white chest and white splotches along her legs. She has short fur and has leg legs and tail. β¬ Pecan is a loud, prideful she-cat. Sheβs not aggressive with her pride, sheβs more playful. Sheβs stubborn and doesnβt take well to strangers as she prefers to be in her friend group. She has trouble fully grasping situations and believes that she can help by joking. β΅ Pecan doesnβt share blood with the clancats, and she currently lives with her house folk. She likes to explore, so she is seen exploring the forest around her home. β Open.
Frosty 10 moons. | Aphelyon β§ small pale gray and white she-cat with dull yellow eyes. Her forehead, back, and upper legs are dusty gray, while her face, chest, belly, and lower legs are pure white. Her tail and the backs of her ears are darker in color. She wears a pink collar with a bell on it that makes it difficult to hunt. β¬ despite her age, Frosty is still very much a kitten at heart. She is spontaneous, outgoing, friendly, and loves to play. She's a bit naive, both unable to sense danger or to tell when and where she's not wanted. Despite her immaturity, she is clever and a quick learner, and is also very good on her paws. β΅ like many housecats, Frosty was simply chosen from a litter of kittens and taken in by new housefolk, where she has lived happily the last eight moons of her life. β relationships.
β§ β¬ β΅ β΄ β― β StarClan
Feather 51 moons. | Aphelyon β§ slender tortoiseshell she-cat with a white muzzle, chest, belly, and paws, and round pale green eyes. β¬ by no means a perfect mother, but she always did what she could to provide for her many kits and raise them well. Unfortunately, at times that meant being a bit stricter and a bit harsher than she would've liked, and especially when her first litter was younger, she had a habit of getting a bit impatient with them. To compensate, she ended up coddling her second litter perhaps too much, but was too sick to show her third and final litter as much attention before she passed. Other than raising her kits, she was known to be very loyal to tradition and the warrior code (or what she had learned of it), very dutiful, and very strict with her kits, especially the first litter. β΅ was raised with the warrior code and stories of the Clans, which she in turn has passed down to her own kits. Unfortunately, a nasty bout of greencough a couple winters back left her with permanent lung damage, and while she survived long enough to wean her most recent litter, it seems like the illness finally caught up with her. β kits are Fox, Magpie, Thistle, Hawthorne, Lilith, Pigeon, Shadow, and ?.

The first thing Fox noticed when he awoke in the late morning was that today was going to be hot. The sun had not even yet cleared the canopy of trees that surrounded their little clearing, and yet yesterday's rain once again hung in the air, burned out of the ground by the sun. The ginger tom wrinkled his nose as he felt the humidity clinging to his thick pelt, and the last few dewdrops clinging to the shaded leaves of his den washing over his fur as he brushed past them was almost refreshing against the oppressive warmth. It's not going to be an easy day for Mother's breathing, he thought as he drew in the scents from their home, all dampened by the moisture in the air. So far, it looked like the only other one awake- that Fox noticed at first glance, at least- was Magpie. She had settled in the shade of some bracket and was neatly grooming her long black and white fur, as she did every morning. She let out a soft, friendly trill as her littermate trotted over to her.
"You slept in today," she commented lightly, though her tone offered no judgement on that fact. In response, Fox wrinkled his nose in annoyance at himself.
"It must have been the heat," he shrugged, settling down on the soil next to his sister. "Unfortunately, that means I've missed the best window for hunting. I think most prey will be sheltering in their burrows by now, out of the heat."
"Or perhaps down by the river," Magpie offered. "We might have some luck there, and it'll be cooler as well."
Fox tilted his head, considering the suggestion. "We could have the little one(s) come with us as well, with moss. Mother will certainly need water today, and she probably shouldn't leave her den with this humidity." He glanced over to the dark mouth of Feather's burrow beneath the roots of a nearby elm, where he and Magpie and all of their siblings had been born and raised until they took up too much space. The den was deep and dry, and stayed cool in greenleaf- exactly what Feather needed on days like this.
Magpie nodded. "That's a good idea. Thistle should come along as well. I assume he'll be up soon, but if not, I may just have to wake him." She twitched her whiskers with amusement.

ββM up, βm up...β Thistle had begun stirring at his littermatesβ less-than-quiet conversation. At his sisterβs last comment, he finally roused himself, lazily lifting his head to glance up at them. He always had a tendency to sleep in, but he was surprised that Fox hadnβt gotten up yet. As he groggily shook himself awake, he finally realized what his siblings meant by βheatβ.
The air was thick with moisture, and while the heat wasnβt the worst heβd ever felt, the thick, wet air made it feel like he was pressing his face into a hot puddle. His nose wrinkled in distaste as he thought of his motherβs weakened state, and how this would hurt her. Hopefully it cleared up later in the day- some clean night air might do her some good.
βRight, okay... hunting and water...β Thistle mused aloud as he gave his pelt a quick grooming. βI think Fox is right, and if we hunt by the river, we can also soak some moss for mother and bring it back... some cool water would be nice today, and we might even find moss untouched by the humidity for her nest.β Shadow would probably be eager to help as long as they made sure to praise him and give him attention over it.

[ this has definitely caught my eye! i'd love to join, but i have one question--i'm assuming that Fox's litter is Feather's first litter? if so, about how old would the middle litter be? ]

(I just finished with work and have kind of a headache but I'll try to write a response soon. In the meantime, gonna add Slate. In appearance, he looks like he could possibly be Shadow's father or something, if you would be up for that.
As for the middle litter, I guess really any age a handful of moons younger than the first, and older than the second XD probably like 10-17 moons, somewhere in that neighborhood, but they absolutely could be closer together than that.)

Older siblings are Fox, Magpie, and Thistle. Younger siblings are Shadow and Pigeon.

Aphelyon Iβm fine with Slate being Shadowβs father. Although would Shadow or Slate know? Also I added another cat-//

(I will add her. As for Slate and Shadow, I guess it kind of depends how much of a relationship Feather and Slate had, and if having a litter was intentional or not? Being that Feather is dead, I'm pretty much up for whatever scenario you feel would be appropriate for Slate.)

Estelle 36 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Estelle is a lethal, sleek furred snowy white she cat; though she isn't completely white. Faint pale grey tabby marking appear on her legs, slowly fading into her white fur. Her face, ears, haunches and tail grow a bit darker in comparison, the darkest of markings showing up on her face. The color around her haunches and tail become less defined and more smoked out. While her fur may be sleek her tail is quite thick and feather like, she is quite lengthy with elegant features. Upon her face rest eyes the color of the moon, a bright icy blue; a tiny black nose accents this. β¬ Estelle is an open-minded she cat, with great intelligence and wisdom. She is kind yet assertive, as she may have compassion for others; baring the truth comes with great burdens. Estelle is a daydreamer, usually found deep within thought. Which makes her a thoughtful and calm she cat, who doesn't speak carelessly. With time she has grown patient and uses her mind to it's fullest capabilities, by being quick-witted. β΅ Estelle was formally known as a kitty-pet but had lived her life inside and outside, so when her twoleg folk abandoned her; she was able to survive in the wild. Her best friend lucian was with her the day she discovered her twolegs had moved and has been with her ever since, she was at the age of 34 Moons. β Good friends with Lucian.
Lilith 15 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Unlike her littermate, Lilith has short soft fur and barely to no white; except for her left paw and a tiny white patch on her chest. Which is still a pale ginger in color, her vibrant coat resembles a burnt piece of wood that still has embers on it; which isn't exactly spotted. Instead her bright ginger color seamlessly blends with her satin black base coat, she is a lean and graceful she cat that is quick on her paw. Her ears are wide and pointed that stick out at an angle, her rounded facial structure is accented by deep but slightly slanted yellow eyes. . β¬ Lilith can be quite temperamental if you catch her in a bad mood, she is shy at first and doesn't warm up well to others as she is secretive and closed off. She has a great sense of intuition and always trusts her gut, which in turn makes her great at making decisions. She is thoughtful at times and always thinks about what she says carefully, as she can be a bit blunt at times.. β΅ Being from Feather's second litter made her quite entitled, but no where near baby like. She has a tendency to whine and annoy her older siblings, she is her sister's partner in crime; as they caused trouble quite a lot. β Mother is Feather, Older siblings are Fox, Magpie, Thistle. Younger siblings are Pigeon and Shadow, littermate to Hawthorne.
Lucian 38 Moons. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Lucian get's his name from his rather dark appearance and vividly haunting yellowish gold eyes. Although his fur is quite short is it thick and somewhat coarse, he is a burly tom having been quite large since birth. He may be one solid color, but upon his forehead you are able to see dark colored tabby markings that you can also slightly see on his front legs. The most interesting thing about his appearance is his teeth, Lucian was born where his fangs grow longer to the point they stick out making him almost resemble a bat or (vampire). β¬ Despite his name and dark appearance Lucian is rather a humble, protective and caring tom; who surprisingly is shy at first. Most other would deem this trait as being secretive, as he doesn't like meeting new faces. At first he is a tom of a few words, but once he warms up he is more talkative. Though he may not seem like one to worry he is very self conscious and worries about those he cares for quite a bit. Being the sweet tom he is he always puts other before him. β΅ He once lived in the twoleg town that Estelle had lived in, though he never had his own twolegs. Living in the town he found it was easier to be selfish and only care for himself, but then he met Estelle who didn't need anything from him besides a friendship. He was with Estelle the day her twoleg's abandoned her and decided to come with her as she went to live in the forest as now his trusted friend she would need protecting. β Best friend to Estelle, otherwise open.
Tiger (Tig-er) 18 Moons old. | β‘ Bun β‘ . β§ Tiger is quite unique who looks like a mix between a tiger and a leopard, with a complex look. He has a pale ivory base, along his sides, chest, front legs, and half way down his back legs; his rosetta and tiger stripes are all a deep brown. His face and tail are covered in black markings while his hind legs are a sold black. From being an excotic breed he is quite lengthy with a lean build and defined features, with eyes the color of the bright blue moon; icy and sometimes aqua. β¬ With living life to the fullest, Tiger can be quite animated and a little conceited in his abilities. But you have to hand it to him for being brave and courageous, which can sometimes be reckless. Tiger is quite the energetic fellow, needing to keep busy; with the right cat he can talk up a storm. Although he is still quite young, with much to learn; but is quite attentive to his surrounding. β΅ He was born and raised as a loner near the twoleg town, he had to grow up fast as his mother was killed by a monster; leaving behind him and his sister. But it wasn't so bad as he had his sister and made friends with other cat around town. β Ghost is his sibling.

(sorry for a couple days of silence, the end of my week was crazy. Anyways, yeah, Slate and Shadow [and I suppose Pigeon as well] can definitely figure out their relationship later XD
I will add Estelle and Lilith. Though as a note I'm not sure if your intention was for Estelle to have joined up with Feather's group already? But if so I would say she could probably have settled like, nearby and be friendly with them [and maybe friends with Magpie in particular] but probably wouldn't live with them just yet. Other than that they look fine!)

{ Sorry for the inactiveness, work is sometimes super emotionally draining and what not plus my boyfriend stay with me for a few days. I should be more active as of now, because in my state we are having another shutdown. Aphelyon oh I'm sorry I didn't realize that they weren't all living together just yet, Im totally cool with having Estelle living near them and being friendly also In that case, instead of her and magpie being good friends, how about Magpie is the first cat Estelle meets from the group. πππ₯ Omg I feel so bad for poofing I would love to rp hawthorne and Lilith! Hopefully I wasn't away for too long and everyone has left }
