  • So hey there! As you can tell, I'm really eager to start the roleplay plots I have in mind for this one character I'm working on - but he could use some more fleshing out.

    His name, so far as I've figured out, is Flint. He's a rogue from the city and was part of a colony that simply met.. Unfortunate circumstances. He thinks he's the only surviving member of it, but that's pretty unlikely in and of itself.

    He's pretty caustic personality-wise? Like, he cares, but he's really aggressive overall Ah. He's a tsundere?? Well, whatever he is, I would like to shape up his personality a little more. I'm working on seeking help for his genetics - cause I kind of want him to a oriental x something x something x something... You get the idea. He's got a similar face to an oriental and the bat ears but the rest is pretty.. Normal? I dunno. It seemed like an interesting idea at the time.

    As for plots for him, I have a couple ideas, but nothing super concrete. I was thinking he's striving to be the best at something - but I can't figure out what??

    So yeah, some help with

    • Character Personality
    • Past
    • Plots
    • Goals
    • Appearance (?)

    If you guys don't have any ideas but would love to interact with him after he's all done, feel free to pop in as well! I might just post ideas I get here on occasion..

  • hi there, i can help you!


    but first, a proposition for you, cause i can't help but notice how nicely this fits (you don't need to though, and i can help out outside this, dw):


    see, my chara eaglespirit, whos the senior warrior of windclan, i made it so came from a unnamed city as a part of a gang basically. Their leader was a cruel cat who'd take kits to do his dirty work, and had a general disregard for most life. Eagle and his brother Sparrow were also his 'sons' (aka they weren't really, but they were the sons of the leader's crush and stole them to hurt her for choosing their real father over them, and bc then they'd really be his and her sons, that he wanted to shape into his own vision).


    Eagle eventually snapped and killed the leader as a kit, got away with it because no was expected it to be him, and the gang quickly fell apart in chaos with no head in the power vacuum (as the leader didn't even have a second). All the children escaped, however were all scattered and became loners. the grown members probably either left to the same fate or tried to grab power and keep it together, probably getting killed off by another one doing the same thing. if he was a kid in the group (now aged 14-26 moonsish) then maybe he could've thought that no one else was able to make it out/those that did just died soon after or something. If he's older and was one of the adults, then i mean he probably knows that most died and probably thought that everyone met that fate.


    or if that story gives you an idea, then im open to tweaking it a bit in order to make room for someone/something else, as long as it doesn't interfere with his actual story right now lol

  • I actually really like the idea! I was thinking that Flint didn't get his name until he was a year old because the kits in his colony tended to die before then and it didn't make sense as to why they'd name them without it โ€” but I never found out why they died before then. Your group idea would work awesome though with that idea!


    His dad's name is Jay.. maybe he was a higher-ranking member in the group? Not so high that everyone would remember him right off the bat but definitely high enough that he and Eagle's "dad" knew each other?? And in connection, the kits?


    I'm thinking Flint probably grew up in the city โ€” but he's been travelling a bit to find remaining members of his group and become an eventual leader, which is his ultimate goal, but he's pretty explosive and easily angered so people aren't really confident in his abilities. He's more reliable than he lets on though, and has some actual strategic ability behind his gruff exterior โ€” and he really truly does want to do what's best for those he considers "his" people.


    I really like your story, it has a ton of potential, and would love to interact with eaglespirit even if we don't find a way to mesh their stories together.

  • ooo yeah, i didn't even think about how if there's such a bad turnout for the kits then they probably wouldn't've been named -- it still makes sense though, since eagle and sparrow were special as the protegees of the leader (god i still need to think of a name for him i just can't bother atm lol), or at least supposed to lol.


    and i mean, actually if you wanted to play one of the kids it works even better than what you're imagining, as eagle back then was a little spitfire who was loathed the 'adults' and would stand up for all the other children and get his ass kicked so they could get away and not get hurt. so he was like the older brother to most of the other kids, even those that were older than him. so it's very likely that eagle totally stood up for flint and they could've been pretty close before the very end when they split seemingly forever! we can also do the thing where their father figures knew eachother too as well though, that's also a cool point


    and this isn't relavent but one of eagle's chara growth point was to break out of the mindset that there are people he owns (as he felt he owned the other children and sparrow back in the gang and thus why he was so protective), and that he can only care about them. right now in his development he's actually pretty chill and mostly stable and not that much of an ass, but it is interesting that flint's going through the same thing he did not that long ago - that flint's eagle's past in almost every way coming back - maybe they can play off of that fact? in any case, it's interesting!


    and yeah, i agree at the very least when you create flint him and eagle need an interaction, they seem like they'd be very fun to play with together

  • Ooh, I like the idea. I also like the idea of Flint copying what he remembers of Eagle because to him that's what a leader who cares about their people looks like โ€” Eagle's protection of him and the other kits. It also helps with the fact that in Flint's story all of his siblings, excluding his brother Metal (the name made sense cause metal is prominent in cities) died before or shortly after getting their names.


    And yeah, I like the thought of Flint and Eagle meeting up and Flint's personality a slap in the face cause he reminds him so much of himself.


    Flint as a kit was confident, brash and had a habit of questioning adults cause he didn't always agree with them โ€” he also had a perfection complex and issues with the adults telling him he was amazing and inferior, sometimes in the same sentence. It left him feeling like if he didn't do the absolute best he didn't have anything worth being proud of.

  • Well, let's see. We kind of figured out a big piece of his past (how he was raised would be expanded upon later, I think), we figured out a key plot and goal for him (meeting up with eagle again would be a key plot point in his story plus a goal would be trying to make a group of his own), and we figured out something about him (He has issues with being a perfectionist and doesn't really know what it looks like to have a healthy leadership relationship with those around him)

    Honestly, the major thing I'd like to do is nail down his personality more concretely. I gotta wait on the appearance stuff until the genetics for his litter is done - and a good portion of the other stuff on his bio (that I've got pulled up in word - the skeleton for it is twenty-something pages so far) would be helped tremendously with his personality.

    OH! Also, on another note:
    What age do you think he'd need to be in order for his stuff to work with Eagle's stuff but to still have survived on his own with his brother?

    And lemme know if there's any questions you come up with for him! I'd love to talk about him some.

  • tbh i like to keep the personally vague to start rping, but then developing them/finding out their personally through rping them. the way i feel it, you have to get to know a chara by rping them for a bit before you can really know who they are deep down! but that's just me lol



    ah yeah, im working on that appearance now, dw that should be soon lol


    well, eagle's 18 if you want him to be around that age! the group fell apart when eagle was around 5 moons old, so i'll let you decide what the best age for him would be!

  • I feel like maybe he and his brother stayed around long enough with the struggling group to get their names - but they quickly just watched things fall apart and die with a good portion of the other members. Looking back at your first post, the idea for them trying to stick with the group as it falls apart seems interesting. It's the only home they've ever known and trying to survive on their own when they're younger isn't the best idea. They were probably just starting out as part of the group when it fell apart. Probably a couple of moons at best.

    He's probably around.. sixteen moons-ish? Ages of kits probably wouldn't have been tracked the best, imo, cause they probably would die pretty quickly anyway.

    As for the personality thing, I agree, but at the same time I think I best add on some starting traits so I have somewhere to start from. I'm gonna see if I can't isolate some from my talks of him and write up a beginning list. I can't start out just blank cause I lose track of things pretty quickly lmao.

  • oo yeah that sounds good! im glad that i gave you a diving board to help flesh him out so far though!!


    again, if you need any more help then im always here for you!

    You've been a big help, for real for real! I can't wait to play him with you and frost aaaaa!

    I'll probably need more help in the future, but I think this will definitely give me a headstart in where I need to go with this character!
