☆☆☆
Gene String: Entirely Optional.
Appearance:
Dovespider is a slender she-cat with curly ribbons of cream fur neatly framing her face and running down her back. Her tail and face are a sharp contrast to her lightly-toned body, a deep plum color shading her eyes and striping across her tail. Like a flag, her tail is tipped with white. Dovespider’s fur is always immaculately groomed, despite the Dark Forest’s dreary atmosphere. She moves slowly, with purpose in each of her paw steps as she traverses the sleepless territory grounds.
Personality
Positive Traits: • Loyal • Affectionate • Perceptive | Negative Traits: • Vain • Pompous • Impulsive |
Personality:
Dovespider is hyper-aware of herself and others, whether it be her appearance or tensions between two clans. Her eyes are sharp and always watching, almost to a fault. She tends to lean towards the more analytic side, able to devise plans and act on them with precision. She’s not very motivated nowadays unless a big opportunity presents itself. Dovespider looks out for her own pelt and holds herself to an impossible-to-reach pedestal, often criticizing others who don’t fit into the exact mold she’s placed them into in her head. She is equally as harsh on herself as she is to other cats and can prove to be difficult to get along with at times. Dovespider isn’t shy to point out the flaws in others and it often places her in awkward situations.
The only exception to her rules are ginger toms. She quickly morphs into an obsessive, hopelessly romantic queen at the sight of reddish fur.
When she was alive, Dovespider was more of a sweetheart with a mean streak. She didn’t socialize much with others but otherwise, seemed pretty normal and forgettable.
Skills & Combat
Strengths: • Sneak Attack • Not afraid to play dirty • Quick and soft-footed | Weaknesses: • Weak Swimmer • Easily Overwhelmed • Prefers to fight solo |
Character Background
History:
Dovekit was born to Lemoneyes and Smokeriver of the previous clans. She had no siblings and was the apple of her parent’s eyes. Whatever she wanted, she got. Surprisingly, Dovekit didn’t abuse this until her later kitten moons. She started as a low maintenance kit that enjoyed playing around, getting into trouble, and rolling in mud, like all kits do. At the first glance of her reflection in a puddle, she was dissatisfied. The fixation on her appearance and keeping tidy started early on, around 4 moons old. She stopped playing with others to avoid getting dust in her pelt and chose to stay in the safety of the nursery den instead.
When Dovekit was made an apprentice, she was assigned to Pigeonspots. She was eager to learn and presented no major issues, besides being occasionally late due to grooming herself. Dovepaw was averse to the older tom’s appearance, but kept to herself and stayed a good student. A certain tom caught her eye, along with the eyes of many other she-cats. Fallenpaw was gentle, romantic, and genuinely kind; in that moment, she was smitten. The two interacted, but not enough for her to be satisfied. Dovepaw turned back to her aggressive grooming techniques and isolating “self-care” rituals to try to hone her beauty to perfection. Spending so much time on herself lead to the lack of genuine friendships and more artificial, surface-level relations with the rest of her clan.
Upon graduation, Dovespider made it her mission to catch his eye. Her persistence never yielded results, and Fallensun had taken on a mate. She was pregnant a pawful of moons later. Dovespider quickly began to spiral, thinking about how she could kill Fallensun’s mate and replace her, or possibly kill the kits afterwards. Why would he not choose her? She was beautiful! Dovespider took out this confused bundle of anger and sadness on two unfortunate toms; (NPC) and (NPC), the targeted toms sharing the same soft ginger fur that Fallensun sported. She has used a swift bite on the back of her neck to kill them, feeling a rush of glee afterwards. Soon after, bitterness would envelope her again.
One night, Dovespider snuck into the medicine cat’s den. She then consumed berries to make sure she’d stay beautiful, forever.
Dovespider was named Dove- for her soft, pale fur, and -spider for her ability to stealthily strike prey before they even noticed what they were hit by. This is her only viable fighting technique, and Dovespider struggles with actual fighting if her opponent is able to survive her initial strike.
Being in the Dark Forest has clouded her emotions, making her fantasize more about the idea of Fallensun rather than Fallensun himself. She tends to target ginger toms, treating them as if they’re all the same cat, and fawning over them. When she’s not thinking of her dream boy, she’s arguing with the other Dark Forest cats or grooming herself.
