Will you survive the streets?

Welcome to New York City!

Welcome to one of the bigges and most busiest cities in the world, also known as the 'City of Lights' because of the beautiful lit streets when night falls. It's a city full of wonder and beauty, many people filling the pavements and cars filling up the wide roads-although the city seems busy and rather over crowded it's a beautiful place to be and an excellent place to live. The streets are lined with many different chops and stalls ranging from plant shops to car shops.

In a large city such as New York you don't just get humans and their vehicle's fill the streets but stray cats and dogs venture through the crowded streets through day and night. Living as a human is easy, but a bit rough at times but being a stray is a little more hard. Food is more hard to get and shelter is also difficult to find, humans won't always care for a passing stray as they go through their busy mornings and nights in the big world. Although for cats and dogs it's hard and a little scary but you'll managed whether you go solo or in a group-it's entirely up to you how you want to live out your life on the streets.

Plot:
Throughout this role-play you will be playing out as a stray of New York City, whether that be a cat or a dog. Some days will be tough and others will be more pleasant-everyday is different in the great city. You'll go out your days however you want to play them out, may it be sleeping through the day and coming out at night or the other way around, maybe you even decide to be adopted later on but still escape your easy living now and then to get a taste of the free life. Fights will break out, relationships will blossom, families will grow and groups will form, grudges will be held, others will be forgiven as you live life in the city.

You're accepted! Once we get a few more members we may start. Oh, and here's my application:

"Life is to important to be taken seriously"

Name:
Armani

Age:
3 Y/O

Gender:
Bitch

Species:
Canine

Breed:
German Shepherd Golden Retriever mix

Personality:
Armani is quite the outgoing canine who has quite a reputation on the streets. Many of the city folk often see this cheerful canine wondering around the streets looking jolly as ever-so its not rare to see people giving her food in certain parts of town, but in others she has to steal or beg. Mani often wonders the streets singing or humming songs to herself, dodging traffic or hitching a ride ontop of a vehicle or taunting the cities people. Most of the time Armani is an outgoing canine who loves exploring. Although she's a stubborn and feisty canine she's mostly happy and friendly-although sometimes she will taunt others giving them a bit of a tease or a chase and some get the easy conversation with her. Pretty unpredictable. One of the ngeative things is her bad temper, which is lashed out like a blazing fire when provoked which leads to fights and argument-beware she's very wise about the streets and can take care of herself. Yesn Mani is an acceptional fighter and when offered a challange she takes it there and then. Sometimes she's sarcastic and cocky towards both feline and canine, which isn't a surprise in this young dog. When angered she's best left alone to cool down, although if soemone talks to her and try to calm her she does collaborate and listen. When it comes to males Armani can be a little on the flirtacious side, which makes it hard to tell whether shhe really likes someone or not. At times Mani can be bossy and a little pushy, but that's only when she's trying to be helpful-since being alone from a young age she's very wise of the streets-a bit of a female version of Dodger from 'Oliver and Company'.

Background:
Ever since being a pup Armani has been a stray. When old enough her parents left her in an alley, no one knows why nor does she-it's still a mystery to her. But somehow she managed to take care of herself day in and day out alone. Without any help. Many of the cities people took to her like a duck too water and offered her a home-but the streets were her home and she wasn't leaving for anything. Growing up on the tough streets she grew wiser and wiser making her extremely intelligent about life in the city. Now, she sometimes helps those who are new to the streets-although it doesn't seem like her bossyness is helping they'll soon realise it actually is.

Crush:
Nope (Subject to change)

Family:
Can't remember them.

Stray(?):
Yes, she's a stray.

Extra:
She wears a chain around her neck what she found in the trash.

Name:
Bear

Age:
4 years old

Gender:
Male

Species:
Canine - Dog

Breed:
Australian Cattle Dog mix

Personality:
Bear is very confident in himself, even if he's wrong. He can be defensive about himself or someone he cares about. Bear can lose his temper easily, when provoked, if he tries he can keep calm but he has a bad tendency to act off his emotion instead of using his head and logic.

Background:
Bear was a stray since birth. He was the only surviving pup out of a two-pup litter. His mother taught him the best she could about how to survive before she was taken away by humans, Bear then assumed that she was dead considering he would probably never see his mother again. Bear lived the rest of his life mainly by going out at night-time when it's easier for him to adventure around.

Crush:
None, subject to change

Family:
Mother: Sarah [Decreased]
Father: Unknown

Stray(?):
Yes, he is a stray

Extra:
Nothing else.

Armani

"Lifes to important to be taken seriously"

As life in the city slowly began to stur at the earl hours of the morning the tan and black canine had already woke. Armani tended to wake early in the mornings to take a stroll around the city and look for food before things began to stir up-at these early hours it was unlikely many strays would be lingering around looking for food, which gave her th advantage. The birds were yet to start their morning songs and few people were travveling through the once empty streets.

Claws clicked against the cold surface of the uneven pavement, her broad paws patting against the ground as she calmy and quietly wondered through the streets. It seemed like a ghost town in the morning, which gave Armani a slight chill-although it was soon brushed off. With her long, fluffed tail swaying gently behind her the Shepherd Mix glanced continuously around the streets-not many shops or stalls were open-none that would give her food in any ways. Sighing the large canine lifted her head in pride, her tongue hanging from the side of her mouth as she stopped outside an alley-something caught her attention.

Looking down she notcied a small object, a strong smell lingered through the alley and Marni's mouth watere. That she recognised as sausage. Letting a grin curl onto her face she turned-heading down the alley. With her mouth waters she soon stopped at the small food source, taking a paw to roll it over-then craning her neck to sniff it. All seemed alright. "Breakfasts on the menu!" she spoke in her usual edgy yet flowing voice as she ran her tongue across her lips-immediantely snatching the delicious sausage into her mouth and chewing. It didn't take long for her to devour the meat and head on out the alley.

Soon enough Armani was back out on the open streets, everything still dead-apart from the few more people filling shops and pavements and a few extra cars had ventured onto the wide spread roads. The city would soon come to life. Lifting her hind leg Marni managed to extend her long, sturdy legs towards her head and curl her head around-her claws digging into her fur to see to an itch that irritated the side of her head. Then, giving her body a brisk shake she took a seat on the road side, her tail sweeping across the pavement.

Rue

4 months old

Gender:
Female

Their mom had left them to go hunting. Unknowing of the street and its harms, they went to play, and an open sewer hole brought them great curiosity. Still wobbly on their short and stubby paws, they looked down which caused Rue's brother to slip and fall in with a yelp of terror. The yelp was cut short followed by a splash of water and the sound of more splashing as her brother tried to swim, but his legs were too short. Confusion and fear his Rue though before she could head in and help her brother, she heard her mom telling her to stay and watched as her mom ran and jumped down the dark hole. Rue never saw them again. Later that day, a human had found her and took her home to care for her, though she still wants to go and search for her mom and brother.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fox
A car started. Hazy fumes hitting the roof of her mouth and she coughed, waking up and her dreams shattered like ice. She stared around almost in a daze as the ground beneath began to move and she winced but quickly remembered she had sheltered on the wheel of a truck the night before. The wheels moved and before it could send her below and crush her, she quickly jumped off to the side and watched the car drive in a sulky manner. She hissed, her back arching in annoyance, especially because her sleep had been broken. Since she was awake, though, she might as well look for something to eat. The dumb dogs in the city always ate up the food and some even tried to eat her. It was quite interesting though to catch pigeons, which seemed to be a main diet of hers when they came around. They were fat and easy and seemed to wait, and because of her lithe and small shape they never suspected her of stalking them. She stalked quietly out of the alley she was in and down the quiet and grey street of New York City.

Bear

Bear awoke in the early city morning. He perked his ears up ask her heard a few cars going here and there. Bear stood up to his paws and gave himself a long stretch along with a yawn. Bear crawled out of his small shelter which was very warn out. "Maybe I should find a new shelter for tonight..." Bear spoke to himself quietly. Bear's tail flicked behind him as he turned around and went off towards the less populated part of the city.

Bear continued his way in the city. His claws lightly clicked against the cement of the sideway as Bear watched the sun continue to rise in the city. Bear stopped in his tracks as he caught the scent of something, it was another dog. Bear snorted and shook his head, right now he didn't want trouble. Instead of directly following the scent, Bear just decided to continue, he had to find a new shelter first.
