⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀.⬦ ❝ The Path We Choose ❞ ⯌ An Eclipsekit Application ⬦.

Welp, here it is. An application for Eclipse, who in my hands would the the bright, friendly and social kit of the bunch! I've been looking for a tom that I can roleplay to be social and likeable by his vast amount of friends, and Eli looks like he could definitely be perfect for that role! I'm super excited to share who Eclipse would be with me as the RPer, and hope you like my application!

. ≽ * About Me ↬
Hi there! On Scratch, I'm called Willow (she/her) and I’m a bookworm, writer, ambivert and dedicated roleplayer with a passion for each of my characters and the telling of each of their unique stories. My greatest passion is definitely writing and I love to create stories, personalities, and a great legacy for any characters I can as well as the stories I create with them. Additionally, I love fencing, playing soccer, horseback riding, and worldbuilding!

. ≽ * Activity ↬
I'd call myself a pretty moderate roleplayer. I have a decent amount of free time throughout the week and use most of it to do what I can with my character while I can. I'd say I'm more active than most, and find myself managing my time on Scratch RPs and all my other real life stuff, pretty well, so that I can still do everything I plan to with my character and still do everything I want in everyday life. Overall I'd say my activity is about an eight out of ten. :3

. ≽ * Experience ↬
Despite the newness of my account, I'm actually pretty experienced in Generations as well as the general roleplay community. I've had a total of three previous characters, whom I'll list in a minute. Besides Generations I have been a part of many other RPs over the years such as Legacies, The Four Clans RP, The Divided Skies, Dynasty of Beginnings, Wolves of Dusk Valley and more! But Generations is definitely my favorite and longest lasting RP. I recently moved to this account from @_-Mistyflight-_, which is the account all of my previous Generations characters have been roleplayed through.

. ≽ * Previous Characters ↬

↬ Saltbreeze ≽ UC -
A strong, clever and sly warrior who was pretty happy until her brother killed her close friend as an apprentice. She despised her brother after that, only for him to die from the wounds of that battle, and have her blame herself for how everything turned out, believing if she'd payed more attention her friend would be alive and her brother wouldn't have taken such a twisted path.

↬ Emberlilypaw ≽ MC -
Lily was a MossClan kit who made a strong bond with lots of friends. Many, including her best friend Topazkit and another close friend, Mushroomkit, passed away during kithood, making her pretty upset. She was always able to move on and continue with her life happily, only to die alongside everyone she'd ever known on the day she became an apprentice due to starvation. I was always a bit disappointed I never got to go very far with her.

↬ Annuletfire ≽ MC -
A MossClan revival cat, who believed it was her main purpose to help her Clan grow from the ashes. She did her part proudly, but her story was mostly centered around her love for her sister, Flamethunder, and the story of their relationship. They were best friends all the way through kithood and apprenticeship, but Flame became less active in her sisters life during early warriorhood. This made Annulet miserable without her sisters' companionship. Moons later they eventually made up and became close again.

. ≽ * Detailed Personality ↬

Positive ≽
↬ dependable ≽ Eclipse is always one for dependence. He highly values all of his friends and wouldn't trade them for anything. He believes that if you have others to help you get through life, your life will mean so much more than if it was spent alone. He will always do his best to be the friend that cats can rely on and to help them with anything they'll ever need.
↬ thoughtful ≽ Eli also thinks that he should be insightful about his friends and will try to spend time thinking about them. He tries not to make that known, since he's a bit embarrassed that he likes being alone to think about how to improve relationships, and that seems a bit silly to him. Cli does think that it helps, because he can use it to understand what his friends may be going through at the moment and try to figure out anything he can to try and help.
↬ caring ≽ Eclipsekit's dependability and thoughtfulness both combine into how much he cares for his friends. His friends are his closest companions and he cares for them more than anything. He will always do what he can to make them happy because when their happy, he is and that always results in fun games to play. He always reminds his friends that he's there to help them whenever they need it and shows that he still cares in small ways. Whether it be a small gift, joke or compliment, he's not letting them down.

Neutral ≽
↬ easygoing ≽ Cli is a pretty chill cat, and doesn't go nuts over trivial things. He will get pretty upset over certain large things, but usually remains calm over most situations. He really just likes to focus on being happy and bright and, of course, playing with his friends. Those are his main priorities and he's not so quick to let other things bother him and get in the way of that.
↬ comical ≽ Eli also loves to hear the laughs of other cats. To him, there's nothing more delightful than the sound of amusement and he will do anything he can to make others laugh. Whether he puts a mass of messy leaves on his head, makes a silly face, or just tells a simple joke, he will always try to be the funny, charming kit of UrchinClan.
↬ witty ≽ Eclipse has a sharp mind, and that combined with his humorousness, that leads to his witty nature. He's quick to come up with a funny response to a question, yet making sure that it's still serious enough to be smart. He's quick to respond to anything, be it an attack, question, or anything he hasn't expected. He's smart enough to figure a way out of it, while still being his natural, funny self all the while.

Negative ≽
↬ naive ≽ Cli knows for a fact that the cats of UrchinClan are often out for blood, but he likes to trust them anyway, believing that deep down, their intentions come from the right place and are loyal to the Clan anyway, even if that's clearly not true at all. As he grows older, this will fade, as he won't be so quick to trust others, but small bits and pieces will remain, which he will call optimism, but in truth, are really a weakness when it comes to the beliefs and stereotypes of typical UrchinClan cats.
↬ proud ≽ Eli is also quite proud of himself, mostly for just existing. He often exaggerates about his feats and all the amazing things he's done, and doesn't try to pretend he's humble. He thinks that his father's importance must mean that his kits would be important to, and lets that go to his head. Though, Eclipse's trait of proudness will probably drive a few cats away, but his friendliness makes up for the most of it, and he does try to seem friendly and sweet for the most part.
↬ stubborn ≽ Eclipsekit also thinks that his ideas are the best, and will not hesitate to let others know when he would far rather do his idea than theirs, even if the other idea is clearly the better option. Eli wants to be the one to make the decisions, believing he should have some power over other kits, for a reason he's not entirely sure of, but will act according to it anyway.

❝ dying to raise the dead, oh ❞

. ≽ * Identity ↬

↬ Gender ≽
Eclipse will not think too hard about his gender during early life and easily identify as a male, using the according he/him pronouns for at least his early kithood. Later on, in late kithood or early apprenticeship he might change his gender to demiboy using the pronouns he/they and possibly add a new pronoun to the mix, but will keep part his assigned gender at birth with him throughout life.

↬ Sexuality ≽
Eclipse will pay no mind at all to his sexuality during kithood, and around early apprenticeship he will begin to identify as straight. Later on in life, maybe late apprenticeship or early warriorhood, he will identify as pansexual, finding cats of all genders attractive. He finds himself falling in love with cats over their personalities, reguardless of what their gender may be and what pronouns they use.

None!

❝ but you're still the same ❞

. ≽ * Codeword ↬

Eli sat on the edge of a clifftop. His green eyes were closed and the sun set on the distant horizon, enveloping the entire sky in a soft orange and yellow glow. The ocean crashed on the jagged rocks below. Like an invitation. A whisper of beckoning echoed in his mind. The ocean had sent it, Eclipse was sure. He opened his eyes slowly and grinned down at it. “Not today, friend,” he said confidently to the salty water. Cli was happy just sitting on the ridge to be alone and to think. The sea could wait.

^ A little RP example I thought I'd sneak the codeword into :3

❝ I know you by your heart and I will call you by your name ❞

. ≽ * Family Dynamics ↬

↬ Giltreverie ≽ Adoptive Father -
Eli will forever have a deep love and respect for his father. He is the deputy, after all. He will always do his best to try and impress Giltreverie, caring deeply about what he thinks of his son. It means a lot to Eclipse considering he's both his father and his deputy and believes that having both those roles in his life means it's extremely important that he has his respect. His father is his idol, and one day he wants to be exactly like him.

↬ Riddlekit & Hazekit ≽ Siblings -
As the oldest of the bunch, Cli will think of his siblings as their protector. He deeply cares for them, and will do his best to help them with anything. Eclipse dearly cares for all his friends, but his siblings hold a special place in his heart as they are bonded by blood. They are his family, and that means so much more to him than any friend he could ever find.

❝ and its a long way ❞

And a short example from Eclipse, himself! ≽

Cli hummed happily to himself as he strutted around camp with a proud smile on his face. He was always on the lookout for a new friend to make, to add to his ever-growing popularity. It was important to make cats like him, he thought, since that would decrease the chances of others wanting to do him harm. And as of now, who would, when he had so many friends by his side?

He smiled as he thought about that. One day this would get him somewhere. One day Eclipse would become someone of such importance because of where he was starting now. His father was the deputy after all. Perhaps those qualities could pass on to him and he'd become just as respected and important as his dad. Yes, he thought again, he would. Eli would be remembered and respected.

The young kit happily hummed to himself as his potential future unfolded in his mind. He plopped down at the edge of camp where he could stare into the overcast horizon over the ocean just ahead. It was only midday, but Eclipse loved that time. The camp was bustling with activity and potential friends and allies were all over the place, just waiting to Eclipsekit. Seagulls crowed in the distance and the ocean waves crashed rhythmically against the shore. Eli had such a bright future ahead of him, and as long as he was in control, he knew exactly how it would go.
