I'll just keep the history brief, just so people know a little about him. :3 He was born with two other kittens, his brother Nettlenose and his sister Poppywhisker. His mother, Hollytail, became a queen quite early in her warriorship with the clan, and is once again a warrior now that her kits are old enough to fend for themselves. She did consider having another litter, but Goosfeather, her mate, was killed by a badger when the kits had first entered apprenticeship. The incident hit Duskfoot the hardest, because he witnessed the attack first hand. Goosefeather had taken his son out of camp to take a walk around the territory, have a talk about responsibility and growing up, when the badger came bursting through the underbrush in a flurry of black and white. The tom told his son to run but by the time he turned tail and tried to head back to camp, he heard his father cry out. He turned to see Goosefeather fall to the ground in a sickly slump. Before the badger could take notice of the young cat's existence he took off to the camp and told them about the incident.
The warriors managed to chase the badger off their territory, but not after losing Duskfoot's father and injuring two others. He was not quite the same after that incident, and has become somewhat of a loner and keeps a lot of things to himself. People think he's always grumpy--and a lot of the time he is--but it's mostly him avoiding building friendships and relationships with others because he wonders if they will end up just like his father in the end.

Alright, so down to the actual plot part of the page!
FRIENDS | So Duskfoot could use some friends, even if he can be hard to get along with. He tries to avoid creating close friendships with other cats after the incident with his father, so it won't be really easy but I want him to have cats he knows he can rely on even if he does not always outwardly express his appreciation for their presence in his life. We could always do a "best friend since birth" ordeal, where maybe another queen had kits at the same time as Hollytail and they grew up together. It'll have to be someone who understands his personality and what happened with Goosefeather, so they would need to be sensitive about his past.
ENEMIES | Obviously he's loyal to his clan and is protective of it, so while he does not mind the other clans at gatherings and such he won't be overly friendly towards them while on border patrol and especially if they cross into his territory. He could have some of his fellow warriors hate him for one reason or another, or perhaps dislike him because of his personality, or maybe even one who blames him for Goosefeather's death. I'm up for anything here. His sarcastic tendencies can get him in trouble.
FAMILY | He does have his mother and both siblings, so if anyone is interested in claiming one of these three then I would be more than excited! I don't have anything in specific for them, except that I'd like for them to be a pretty close family. His siblings can get under his skin sometimes but what sibling doesn't? They are still pretty close. If you want any of the three and would like to work out some stuff, feel free to PM me~
ROMANCE | This section will be the most difficult, but I would love to have something fun and complex. He's very awkward with most she-cats and it will take a bit of warming up, but once he finds that one cat he cares about he will begin to open up more and etc. I don't want to set him up right away with a mate; I like to roleplay things out and see how he feels about them. Feel free to offer it! And we can do threads to see how it goes. <3 I love the awkward, silent male that falls for the gentle but talkative female. We could even work out his best friend being a she-cat and they wind up falling for one another. Or something.
I'm open for anything really, so throw all your ideas at me! You can PM me too, if that'll be easier.

I'll just keep the history brief, just so people know a little about her. :3
Antares was born in a litter of five kittens twenty-four moons ago. Two she-cats and three toms made up the little bundles of fur resting near their mother, Josie, fighting for their milk. The housefolk rescued a calico from the shelter and were unaware that she was expecting until they had already grown attached to her, and decided to keep all of her kittens as they did not plan on having kits of their own. The man, who spent a lot of time gazing at the sky, decided to name each of the kittens after his favorite stars. Thus Antares, Sirius (brother), Arcturus (brother), Rigel (brother), and Adara (sister) were so named. They lived comfortably, playing with one another and enjoying their little world tucked away from what lay beyond the walls of their home. Josie, being a young mother, was able to keep up with her kittens well enough even without the aid of their housefolk. They always had food and a place to sleep.
Then, the woman was surprised with a pregnancy of her own and things began to change. She was less attentive to the cats and to most things in general. Her mate knew that having six cats in the house was going to be a lot to deal with and soon Josie was standing at the window bidding her five kittens goodbye. They did not fully understand what was happening but Antares was hopeful that things would turn out okay. They were transported several cities over, the kittens watching tall buildings pass by the car window repeatedly. When they finally stopped, the young cats were brought into their new home and allowed a chance to adjust. An older woman greeted them cheerfully and with bowls of milk and food. The five were delighted to see that their new owner was not cruel or mean, but in fact loved cats just as much as the other housefolk did. Arcturus was angry about the move, Rigel not taking to it all that well either but he was adjusting, but Sirius and Adara seemed to have a brighter outlook on life like Antares did. Things were going to be okay.
The woman has a cat door that leads into the backyard, allowing her new companions the freedom to go in and out as they pleased and enjoy nature. It was a first for them but they soon grew to enjoy the extra space. Antares frequently sneaks out past the fence, however, and wanders the forest. The other cats in their backyards talked of wild cats living among the trees, and Antares hopes to find some sort of adventure someday.

Alright, so down to the fun stuff! The actual plot part of the page!
FRIENDS | Antares is a social butterfly, and would make friends with a tree stump if it could talk. Anyone is game for friendship, really, as she doesn't have issues trusting others and always sees the good where some may see only bad. She's a playful, caring, kind, and a gentle she-cat who will do everything for others and nothing for herself. She adores those who are willing to befriend her. So, due to that and her ignorance of the dangers of the world, she won't mind being friends with anyone. Clan cat, loner, other kittypets...if you give her a conversation she'll be glad to have a chat and find something fun to do.
ENEMIES | I'm not quite sure if she'll make 'enemies' per say, as that's a fairly strong word, but like everyone she will have cats who don't like her for one reason or another. Some clan cats are very steadfast in their belief that kittypets are too soft for the forest and have a strong dislike for them, so that could be something. She's very easy to manipulate because she doesn't know a lot outside of her home with her housefolk and siblings, so someone could work with that at some point, I'm sure. Bitter, unyielding enemies, if that does exist for her, would most likely be one sided but workable.
FAMILY | She has her three brothers and her sister living with her and her housefolk: Sirius, Arcturus, Rigel, and Adara. They are claimable, and I'll have them up for adoption soon.
ROMANCE | Well, for this section I would really like for her to fall for a clan cat. She's only known the kittypet life and only knows about some of the forest cats from her fellow kittypets, but I want her adventurous nature to lead her to something that takes her away from that home and into one of the clans. I don't have anything fleshed out in detail yet--I want to wait to see what cat it might be and what clan and how the cats would react and etc. If you're interested in filling this position, PLEASE talk with the member who owns the leader of your cats' clan to make sure they approve. Not saying they'll be all happy and giddy about taking in a kittypet but I need to ensure they won't completely turn Antares down. Giving her a chance, if you will.
