Personally I think Mintpaw deserves to find someone just as weird as him when can I joke about Mintpaw ending up with like, a tree nymph cat down the road

Flickerpaw being incredibly full of herself and thinking shes the smartest vs the fact that she has 0 clue about these traditions because she never listened as a kit

yes let my boy find someone as weird as him, and joke away whenever cause chances are if cats like that ever get brought in, mintpaw would crush on one at one point or another

Thanks so much! This makes much more sense now! Okay so basic rundown of new cat #1
Marigoldskip will be an entertainer who primarily worships Choróthea (and maybe Íliosikieos too) She is a very flouncy cat who loves frolicking around. She is a bit oblivious and doesn't care much for the games. She may root for a couple of the more popular cats though!
I think I'll make my second character an elder! Don't have any solid ideas for them yet

I have a giant lightbulb over my head So what if... The entertainer trio (Marigoldskip included) are in a poly relationship? 𝕊’𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕖 Ember34 let me know if you're both okay with that! I'll work on her form tomorrow I am quite tired

Pearl is intrigued by this She’s bi/ace and she has a very calm sort of presence to her, often more of a listener than a talker, though she’s also very open and affectionate, I think she’d be open to poly

Lots of new posts, will read through. I’ll get a starter up for Whimbrel today so she can take Bright out to hunt. As for Panther and Torrent, I’m interested in both— but I think I wanna go withhhhh Panther maybe? He’ll probably whine to Sable about wanting to join the games but he can’t because he’s too young and was just an apprentice a moon ago.
I’d like to throw a cat of mine into the games, but I haven’t decided which and I don’t think any of them would get far. Whimbrel wouldn’t be a good leader, but she’s for sure team Stoatstar. Seal would throw his hat in the ring even though I’d expect him to lose. Nectar can easily be manipulated because she trusts easily + she loves Thundersnap since he’s her half brother. She’d support him all the way even if his intentions are bad. She’s not too bright. Torrent cannot be fooled, he’s old but somehow sharp. He trusts Honey and Puddle and that’s about it lol. Panther’s too stuck in his own head to care about siding with a cat for leader.

I can get a starter up for Sable (I’m trying to finish my replies before I crash, we’ll see how many I get through lol)

Aw, too bad Whimbrel won't participate. Bright would definitely be rooting for her I'll try to put up starters for Bright, Antler, and Heron today. Since Brightpaw will be with his mentor I might throw Antlerpaw at Flicker and Ivy instead. She may be a mostly rule abiding cat but she's not a snitch nor a killjoy so she is not going to stop or discourage them. She might even go along with their idea too even though she's absolutely sure that they can't participate, even if they put something in the nest
I'll also bring in three new characters. Another fighter, another hunter and an entertainer. One or two of them might enter the games. Thornfang would definitely participate, Ripplefur might give it a try too. Darkwhisper is not interested in the slightest though. As for how my cats would be doing, I think all of them would get past the first round. Cedarfrost will make it the farthest and Thornfang will be the first of my cats to lost at some point

I couuuuld have her participate just for the fun of it o: I'd rather her try instead of Seal tbh. maybe she'll get supporters out of her kids and her apprentice /j. Whimbrel may not make it far, but let's go for it anyways!

Even if she doesn't make it far Brightpaw will be happy about it anyway. For him it's already good enough that she entered at all and at least tried. As important as the games are for the future of the clan to Bright it's mostly about fun

While he of course doesn't know for sure just what Mintpaw finds so great about them he doesn't have to. He gets fascinated with the most mundane things for no real reason so he would never think Mintpaw's leaf obsession is weird

Even I don't know what minpaw loves about leaves, so mintpaw would never be able to explain it either he just knew he's loved leaves the moment he saw them and here he is

What's wrong with my brain today, how on earth did Ivypaw become female in my post? xD I did feel like checking my post again right after posting but completely overlooked that part, instead I only focused on whether I had mentioned the right rank for Antlerpaw and Flickerpaw (that I wrote scout and not something else, like hunter). Oh well, but it's fixed now xD But the main reason I'm mentioning those three is that yes, Ivypaw would be one of the cats who would know to call Antlerpaw a she. I think all her siblings know, same goes for her mentor and maybe some of the other scouts she's training with, at least the ones she trusts enough
And yep, same for Darkwhisper, he'd also be unable to explain just why he loves all those things ^^

Sounds good! And all God XD I didn't even realize Ivypaw got made female, but probably just cause of ivypool that maybe that's how he became female there, and aww these two even if they don't end up lentor/apprentice would still be fun to rp at times jsut bonding over their love of things that they can't explain why

Yea, that's the reason I came up with too. It will probably also happen with other prefixes if a canon character was important enough xD And yea, mentor/apprentice duo or not, Mint and Dark would definitely get along well. And since they're both entertainers they'll see each other a lot
Also, because of all the Greek stuff I've been wondering. Nothing that would be relevant for the rp, just something I'm curious about. You guys know the story with Orpheus and Eurydice? Where Orpheus went to the underworld to retrieve her, had to walk in front of her and wasn't allowed to look back until both got out? And how he screwed up by looking back at her too soon? Well, for some reason I've been wondering how our characters would do this if they wanted to recover a loved one from the underworld. Which ones would succeed and which ones would mess this up? Like I said, it's not relevant in the slightest, it's just something I got curious about For mine, Cedarfrost and Cloudpaw would definitely be able to do this right. Heronflight too, I think. Brightpaw is one of the unfortunate ones who would look back and he'd never forgive himself for it. Antlerpaw might be able to succeed but there is a small chance she'd screw up too. Can't say much about Sagekit, I don't know yet how he'd act. As he is right now though, a small kit, he'd definitely look back. As for my new ones, I think all three would be able to do it. Especially Ripplefur

I'm an Orpheus defender and depending on the translation it's done either 1. He looked back out of insecurity and wanted to ensure she was there 2. He looked back when having an episode of madness 3. There's another where the looked back because eurydice had been hurt and upset he wouldn't look at her 4. My Greek mythology professor brought up one transaction in which she had tripped and fallen and he had turned to help her up So like he didn't mean to make the mistake of looking back and breaking the condition, he just had human moments that caused for him to look back,
But huh that's a good question Mintpaw would be one I know succeeds purely because he was so invested in a leaf as he walked back that he forgot the cat he was saving was behind him Archsong I feel could be either way, she might succeed but I also feel she would be looking forward to being with goosefreckle again that she might make the mistake of looking back to ensure he was there

funniest part about writing Flickerpaw is that she is so judgemental which means I can be mean to my own characters

Yea, I remember seeing a tumblr post about this, it shows up every once in a while and I love all those. Especially the last two. And every one of those options are such good justifications, it's definitely hard to blame him here. Another one I read was that Orpheus looked back the second he stepped outside, excited to finally see her but unfortunately forgetting that they both had to get out first
And pfft, Mintpaw you silly little kitten xD But hey, it's all good because that way he can't mess up in any way, the leaf has all his attention. But aww, Archsong if she looks back. Just like Orpheus, she messes up there but who could blame her?

Stoatchase I think feasibly could succeed because he doesn't like looking at people anyway. But he's also nervous so.. Cloverpounce would make it until the end but turn her head too soon, thinking they're already out. Flickerpaw turns her head like five steps in . 0 patience on her
