• PERSONALITY >> 

 - upbeat - This cat is very much a high drive individual with more energy than the sun can produce in it's life span. With this energy comes his positive outlook on life and overall need to look on the bright side of things in the world, especially when others don't want to. While he may come off as a ignorant kit when this trait shows, it's mostly for the inward drive to make things better than let despair take over. Afterall, when there's no hope in someone, there's only sadness.

 - friendly - Diggs loves to meet new cats, hear of their experiences, and talk to them until their ears fall off. While his overall being can be a bit draining to most, he does have good intentions. A big lover of the "Second and third chances," he'll over his shoulder to cry on to anyone willing to be nice to him so long as their offence isn't major (killing another cat without probably reasoning). Making others feel better is a goal he keeps in mind as well as just wanting to never feel lonely again. Growing up with a band of other angry, disrespectful, and cats who ignore him have taken a toll on him and his need to prove himself has drove him to who he is today.

 - courageous - In the face of danger in the past, Diggs will abandon his un-serious demeanor in a heartbeat if it means he should save another life. His deep set morals and values in life have given him a reckless self sacrificial run in with danger, however he doesn't execute his help just as so. The lives of others are all important to him and to stand up for what he believes in is his code. Nothing will deter this trait in him and it will likely be the death of him in the end.

 - adventurous - Growing up within a human home for the first few years of his life have given him the perspective of a closed off world before his owners essentially threw him out to the barn to be a mouser when his interest in the back yard grew before their eyes. Diggs use to always climb the fence and sit at the top to lookout over the wilderness just beyond his reach. When it was given to him without warning after his humans attached a collar to him and sent him out to the shed full time, he began to test the limits of the wild until his time at home became only a nightly appearance to eat (if prey wasn't caught) sleep and an occasional visit in the afternoon to greet his humans. Each venture reached venture until his touched the barest bones of the guild territory and stopped - from rumours he heard from other cats, he didn't want to trespasse. After that, the recent year has been him meeting new cats and learning from them as an apprentice to their teacher. There is a lot to learn from exploration - and he intends to be the 

 - oblivious - There are many things that this cat is and being oblivious is certainly a big one. Diggs is ... a very different cat when it comes to interpreting another cats emotions or fixations. This is anywhere from barely hidden sadness to infatuations directed at him or other cats. He just never sees it.He's always content in letting cats tell him outright and ... well ... he just never developed the skills to reach another being like one should on some basic level.

 - casual - While he may have an adventurous side and a set of moral codes, this cat doesn't really want a set commitment in life right now and is content with just riding his life day to day. His casual behaviour is best seen in his friend making. No cat is his enemy until they outright insult him or attack him, and even then he just backs off and tries to leave them alone UNLESS they pick at his values or harm his friends.

 - determined - Diggs determination in life is often a by product of his adventurous behaviour and his friendly attitude. The cat just does not know when to give up, dammit. He finds a cat he wants to be friends with, or finds something he wants to see or do, by golly he's gonna try his hardest to do that and at any realistic cost.

 - moralistic - Most of his are more or less predictable and easy to guess, but ach and every one of them are held dear within his heart and a rule he intends to live by for the duration of his life. His fierce fixation on these justified in doing what's "right" and living the life of  a "noble cat" like his mother use to tell him. Between the stories his mother would tell him, the lessons learned from other cats, and his experiences growing up, this morality has only solidified and made him strong willed when faced with something that compromises them.

 - arrogant - Diggs, most of the time, can be a bit arrogant in his abilities and will easily brag if it means he can win over (or deter) another cat. Most of the the time this is a larger front to distract him from a inlain inferiority complex he has that also ties in with the factor of hating being alone. He doesn't like coming off as weak and because of this he forces himself to come off strong.

 - careless - Hand in hand with his courage, he is as equally careless. From throwing himself into the fray, to fighting like it's his last stand, Diggs is beyond careless when it comes to things that wholeheartedly challenge him. There is really nothing more to say about this one.

 - excitable - also similar to his upbeat trait, this tom cat is easily excited when others encourage him. Goofy and fun loving and proud, he really gets into the moment when with his friends. 

 - impulsive - This tom cat really lives in the moment and works to make every tick of his time clock worth it! Because of this, any idea he forms - good or bad - he will dive head first into having it done. His determination in this makes his impulse control go down despite others encouraging him to not do certain things.

• HISTORY >>
[Pre-group history:] Diggs was born into a loving household and sired by a wild cat he never had the luck to meet before his implied passing. His early life was soft and comfortable living with his mother and remaining siblings. He adored his family, humans and all, due to their acceptance and care of him through their time together. As a child, his mother use to tell grand stories of his father, the wilderness, and of the ancestors that guide and watch them as his father believed. While he was skeptical of the latter (and still is, he only uses the concept to sooth him when he's scared or feeling really alone/down), the previous use to inspire him enough that they molded him into the rather quirky tom cat that he is today.

Growing up, when let outside with his mother, siblings, and the human children, he'd always be interested in what lie beyond his reach and would test the limits every time until the humans, in his second year living, took him to the barn and gave him his signature thin rope collar to be a outside cat or mouser. While he was initially ecstatic, constantly exploring, coming back to the barn was always ... a challenge. The cats within were ruthless and mean and very cliquey and a scrappy, twig of a cat could never find a place amongst the burly and snooty upper "ranks" of the barn cats. The bullying and isolation that the group inflicted upon him affected him greatly and made it so his outly adventures were taken further and further daily and his time spent at 'home' became less and less until he only slept there and visits occasionally as needed.

Right now he is in a similar situation however his life on the fringe influences him and one day he does home to cut ties with the barn cats and become a wanderer to later join (or make his own) guild. His only tie now is his family.

--
• KINDRED >>

-- family relations open, note me --

 > m. grandma - Raisin < living as a housepet (barn cat) - npc (or open) - Raisin is one of the few cats in the barn that treat him well. Her old age does keep the stings of the cats at bay, she does face a lot of scrutiny from others for being the "kooky queen who believes in ghosts."
 > m. grandpa - Blackfoot < deceased housepet (barn cat) - npc (or open) - Diggs had only know his grandfather briefly before he passed away from an unknown respiratory illness that went undetected due to him hiding it from everyone well. Blackfoot had been a wild cat, who believed in the ancestors and converted his mate, Raisin, and encouraged Diggs in his early days in the Barn.

 > m. uncle - Danny < living as a housepet (barn cat) - npc (or open) - He's a pompous scary cat who is all talk and side kick worthy. Diggs holds no respect for him and sees him as a weak cat with no gall.

 > p. aunt - Sky Runner < living as an unknown guild cat - npc (or open) - sister to his father, she sometimes comes around the barn to meet him him, his siblings in the backyard, or his mother when she can to keep up with her extended housepet family. She is a strong wild cat a part of a bigger guild far away. She rarely comes around due to the distance she has to travel, but her stories and guidance is held dearly in his heart. Truly one of the strongest cats he knows.

 > mother - Nessie < living as a housepet  - npc (or open) - His mother, Nessie, is a kind and starry eyed soul who raised her kits to be just as lively and glory seeking as her late mate and their sire. She is a dreamer and use to tell Diggs that she wish she could have run away with Bracken, but stayed when she found out she was expecting. She'd encourage him throughout his life, even after he became a barn cat, and continues to be a positive influence in his life.
 > father - Bracken < deceased, previously wanderer - npc - Of all the cats in his life, his father was one who's legacy he left behind has been one of the most influential things on him. His morals are his morals and his drives are his drive. While he inherited his mother's composure, he's always told that he looks just like him. Diggs greatly wishes he could have met him once to have asked him all the questions he's had, but, alas, that will never be.

 > brother - King < living as a housepet (like him) - npc (or open) - King, much to his name, acts like a cat of royalty and has his eyes set on being the next "Ricky" if only to be a kinder one. His burly build and beautiful pelt makes him popular, but he's never lost ties with Diggs and will always love his brother no matter what clique he falls into in the end.
 > sister - Hazel < living as a wanderer - npc (or open) - Hazel is the only of his littermates that committed to pursuing guild life and left the household as soon as she could. He doesn't see her much at all anymore, but growing up they were very close.
 > brother - Basil < whereabouts unknown - npc (or open) - Basil was the runt of the litter and was adopted out to another household. Diggs barely remembers him and still wishes they could meet again, however unlikely.

• RELATIONSHIPS >>

-- cats from the barn --

  > npc Ricky < Ricky is a strong, respected, but also an asshole, specimen of a tom cat that all the cats living in the barn (wanderer or housepet) love and look up to. While the cat is a grand arrogant prick, his sheer size, power, and leadership amongst the cats is something anyone could be jealous of, especially the lanky stick of a comparison that is Diggs.

 > npc Maxine < The primary mate to Ricky, she is less of a wonder and more of an annoyance who really actively rubs him the wrong way and leads the toxic environment and silent unestablished "hierarchy" within the growing numbers of cats that reside with the barn. Cats who are weaker than her mate are all seen as unimportant to her, but those similar to Ricky - or better- easily catch her eye. Her selfishness and mean attitude really just make Diggs mad.

 > npc Hay and Tick < These two are twin cats that are two years younger than him and growing up to be just as annoying as their mother but just as strong as their father. Being the offspring of the two most reveled cats in the group, they get away with far too much and he could only guess that the kits the two are expecting will only anger him more.
 > npc Bec < Bec is just a straight up bully who sees Diggs as his personal toy to play with. From play fighting with his claws out to beating him down with words, this cat is just a REAL piece of work.

 > npc Yellowstone < This queen, mated to Bec, follows in with the cruel harassment her mates initiates.

 > npc Fang < While another wanderer turned barn cat, Fang use to be a good friend of Diggs a year prior but slowly fell away when Maxine took interest in him. He is now a boisterous, angry cat who picks a fight with near anyone Maxine or Ricky doesn't like.

 > npc Lillypad < Lillypad is a new queen to grace the group. A born wanderer with a crave for a comfortable life, the two have only ever conversed a couple of times. They both sympathize with each other at the gross environment that the barn cats create, but as Ricky's interest fixate on this younger, beautiful queen, her social stance is already heightening beyond Diggs and he fears that she'll get swept up into the "politics" of the group.

  > npc Garden < One of three new cats brought in by the humans, this queen has yet to make an impression on him, but so far he doesn't see her ending up on the right side.

 > npc Micky < Second of three new cats brought in by the humans, this tom cat has yet to make an impression on him. His stance is unknown but he does tend to be on his own, striking Diggs that he may not be too bad ... just picked on later on.

 > npc Harley < The last of the three new cats. Harley is the most promising having spoken outright against the other cats when they push at him. He's a wild card so far and seems to be likely to leave on his own to be a wanderer later on. Diggs has yet to speak with him.

• ROLEPLAY INFORMATION >>

[RP Example:] 

-- This isn't a cat example but it is one of my best examples of my writing, just of a human setting. It would be similar with cats, just different terminology. Ask me to change this if it's necessary --

■ Lotor | tagged; Allura, Kuro ■

The air was crisp with the autumn morning greeted the world upon the gracious wings of a rising sun. Outside the nameless school stood the many curious faces of its elder inhabitants that awaited the arrivals that were soon to come. Each face within the crowd held their own amount of excited, or lack there of, at the prospect of meeting the new students that would do in join them and their walks through the halls. Spatters of chit chat and excited voices rang, like white noise, through the gathered crowd. Faintly a few bits of various music titles were scattered as one kid or another obnoxiously played their interests on a smuggled portable speaker, driving the teacher chaperones to a jaded annoyance.

Within the front lines of the gathered students stood a notable presence that stood, like a beckon, apart from his peers solely by his looks and demeanor. Long white hair cascaded down the slender, but defined, form of the elegant man. His skin was fair and flawless that lay tight across his sharp structure and form, highlighting his high cheek bones and almost surreal elfin facial features. A small, absent but cocky, crooked smile curled across defined lips, revealing the sharp point of his oddly elongated canines. Blue eyes blinked unyieldingly ahead of him, staring down the empty road that would soon be occupied with the arriving bus.

The man was named Lotor of the Galran family dynasty, an heir to be exact; he was easily a beautiful man revered for his charismatic charm and sheer natural ability to contain and harness the power that lie like roaring thunders underneath his slightly veil. His downside? He was incredibly condescending, an unsightly flirt, and he knew every way to tear down a grown man to make him cry. The Galran heir was a manipulative mastermind with a fixation on flirtation - ready to woo any man or woman he deemed worthy to receive his charm in any given moment. However, where he dealt out his better care, cross him once and a tide will be had from the jaws of a beast. Never did this man play a game without winning one way or another.

While the majority of his time within the packed courtyard had been standing silently, ignoring the various looks his way or the banter in regards to the new arrivals, it was when a distinctive sound and flow of wind caught his attention. That would be his underdog of a rival when it came to sheer sexual prowess and the words he gained from their conversation told him the context. The set smile he had loosely set upon his lips before onto solidified into a more amused one as he turned his head to look left at Allura - someone who held the same power as him - and Kuro. "Yes, the last thing we need is for the new meat to be injured without even stepping off the bus. That makes the hazing later on less fun," The man piped in, voice comprised of sugar and sweet honey as he regarded the two on level ground. For the moment at hand, he would not be vicious, it seemed. Turning his head back he gave a small nod to the bus that appeared over the lip of the road, greeted by a blast of cheers of the gold students that were eager to greet the new.

Eyes blue like the sea viewed upon each of the faces that now stepped from the idled bus. Each one were unique in their reaction, However, very few truly caught his eye. However, a couple did. Two squabbling young man, one with brown hair and one with black. Curiosity tickled the elegant man as he raised two white eyebrows in response. How easily it was for him to find his newest muses. It would fun to figure out who would best suit his taste. Possible the nicer looking one - the emo one would have the be savoured. To Allura and Kuro, he grinned. "I think I found my newest interests - this year is going to be simply delightful for me."

Hi! The application looks great, unfortunately accessories are something you have to pay for with TT. 
You'll either have to remove it or send in enough artwork for the amount of TT you require and join from there.

Awesome, adding him and you to the group asap ~

If you want you can add the collar after gaining enough TT for it uwu

And if you could, we prefer to have the application titled as "TPW | Diggs | Tom | Housecat" to keep stuff matching and all if that makes sense xox

Most of us just comment something on an app like "Hey, would you be up for an rp with __?" 
It's a pretty casual group ovo

I usually use notes ^.^ That way I don't lose/forget about them.

There's such a lack of queens in TPW aaaa. I'm going to make a few more adoptables soon.

I made a tom thinking "groups usually have a lack in toms" because I like ... skimmed the names only really -sweats-
But wow

Yeah it's fine. We used to have a surplus of females at one point but ?? i guess not any more? lol

Gah I know,, I have three toms right now and now queens OTL
I might go ahead and make myself a fourth character if I find the time to design/develop one owo

I'll note you in a bit then !

I usually leave my rps unread/don't click them unless I'm about to reply to them.
If not, I mark them as unread and there's a little section in notes for any you mark 'unread' uvu
Idk if that helps though
