Description
A reference sheet with two characters on it? Hear me out on this one okay? These two where created as almost one idea? While they are two characters they go together 100% of the time; there is no Midch without Bones and verse versa so I thought to myself these two would share a reference sheet because they share everything. lol~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Midch Background:
He was born with only three legs, while his family clan raised him they treated him unfairly compared to the other kittens his age. For Felines, when they come of age they receive their official names, while his mother tried her best to raise him the clan leader gave him the name of DeadLeg at his coming of age ceremony as he couldn't see any redeeming features the useless kitten had. Deadleg was unable to hunt for himself and no one wanted him passing on his genes as they all feared another "broken" kitten being born. Very shortly into his adult life DeadLeg was banished from his clan, the only family he knew. This was a death sentence for a feline that could not hunt for himself but with no other choice the cat set out to meet his fate in the world.
Bones Background:
She was born with abnormally large fangs, praised for her gift from the great spirits by members of her clan she was held in the highest regard as the most deadly and powerful among her kind. At her coming of age ceremony she was given the name Bonecrusher, for her ability to break the legs of escaping prey with her massive fangs. Quickly becoming a respected high ranking member of her clan she was leader of her own hunting party at a young age.
That all change one fateful day when she broke one of her impressive fangs in a fight with a strange Leopard. Returning home thinking she would be celebrated for protecting her home, family and friends, she was instead met with stares of shock and horror. It didn't take long for her clan mates to notices she could no longer kill like she did in the past. Bonecrusher was no more. She was soon disowned in shame of her broken fang, while not completely incapable of taking care of herself, the shame she carried was a heavy burden.
Midch meets Bones:
While Bonecrusher managed okay on her own Deadleg was only able to eat what he found already dead and was becoming rather thin with time. One day when heading to the river for a drink Deadleg saw a large form already sitting at the waters edge, he studied the form carefully to discover it was a large leopard with the biggest teeth he'd ever seen. He knew if they saw him he was definitely going to be on the menu, he turned to leave before getting caught when he had an idea, maybe just maybe, he could strike a deal with the devil so to speak. He decided if he was going to be dead it might as well be sooner than later. So gathering all the strength he had to approached the mighty beast.
Upon getting closer to the leopard he saw something he didn't before, one of their fangs was broken, almost the whole tooth was gone what remained was useless to them. This changed somethings, not whether or not they could eat him of course, but now he could relate to them. Deadleg introduced himself and to his great shock the huge beast listened to him. He explained he knew how to felt to be missing something that would make you feel whole and accepted by others, but he also felt the two of them had the skills together to be more powerful then the people that abandoned them. Bonecrusher, while a feline of few words painfully opened up to the tiny cat, about her past and that she appreciated his time taken to listen.
When Bonecrusher learned the tiny cat's name was Deadleg and how much he hated it she decided to rename him Midch, and since she had given him a name they were now a clan. Midch, over the moon about his new beginning also nicknamed his new clan mate Bones to remove the painful reminder of the past. From that point on in their lives the two were inseparable, between them developing a deadly method of killing both prey and other predators to prove their strength. Midch having three legs made him excellent bait as he looks easy to crush or eat, however, once Midch has the attention of a target he leads them straight into the jaws of Bones, while Bones isn't very good at hunting moving prey anymore, a target coming straight at her has no chance of escaping her mighty jaws.
This method of killing made them very dangerous and they became known across the land for they strength and deadliness as predators.
