[shadow=black,right]STORY[/shadow] Many months ago, when Aurum first joined Tanglewood under the name Wormwood, he was listless and angry, having only arrived at the swamp dwelling group to follow his brother, Poetking. As such, Aurum often found himself wandering into the loner lands, believing that Tanglewood would never really be his true home. On one of these trips, he met Draekon, a new member of the Pitt who, while traumatized into a near feral state and not able to truly talk due to a throat injury, still managed to charm him. Aurum and Draekon began meeting up regularly, until eventually there was a rescue raid by Tanglewood on the Pitt, in order to rescue two of their members who had been kidnapped, Beck and Sam. As it turned out, Draekon had been the one to kidnap Sam, in an attempt to be her friend, unaware that she would be tortured. During this rescue raid, Draekon attacked the ardent of the Pitt at the time, Jervis, betraying the group and trying to make up for his past crimes. Shortly after this, he fled the Pitt and went to Tanglewood to be with Aurum. However, due to him being a former Pittian and the one to kidnap Sam, he was welcomed with hostility, and went into hiding. Aurum was unaware of this, thinking that Draekon had simply abandoned him.

Many months passed while Draekon was in hiding, and during this period Aurum became a well known member of Tanglewood, rising up the ranks and forming family bonds with not only Moth, his adoptive sister, but also Roy, his adoptive son. Eventually Aurum was promoted to proxy due to his hard work and dedication, and thought that his life was finally winding down after the mass raid on the Pitt to overthrow Jervis. Exhausted from his constant working and worrying, Aurum once again found himself in the loner lands, alone and drained after several stressful events. This was when Draekon revealed himself, in a new body and a less feral state. The two of them reconciled, with Draekon explaining to Aurum that he had gone into hiding in order to not cause Aurum trouble, but had never stopped watching from afar. Overwhelmed with emotion and ecstatic to see one another again, Aurum and Draekon slept together, with Aurum becoming pregnant as a result of this.

Now, a couple of weeks later, Aurum – with the help of Moth – has realized he is pregnant, stuck in his female tigon body until the cubs arrive. Aurum has yet to tell anyone except for Moth about the pregnancy, but the first telltale signs are beginning to appear. He has come up with a cover story where Draekon is a loner he met and slept with, since he knows Draekon still would probably not be welcomed within Tanglewood.

[shadow=black,right]PLOT(S)[/shadow] There are currently no set plots for these children, however a few things will happen shortly after their birth. For one thing, Aurum is an angel, which means that these children will be nephilim. This will mean that they could develop powers in the future, or may grow wings to show their status as such. In addition to this, shortly after their birth, Draekon will join Tanglewood in his unfamiliar body and under a cover name, posing as the loner Aurum slept with. This is so that the two of them can raise the cubs together within Tanglewood without issue, and the cubs will be loved very dearly.

[shadow=black,right]GENETICS[/shadow] The genetics for this litter are nearly free for all, with the children being ti-tigons thanks to their father being a tiger and their mother being a tigon. They can possess their mother's cream and amber coloration, or may possess their father's white and black coloration, or may have a coloration completely unlike either of their parents. In addition to this, since the children will be nephilim, they can be born with some unusual traits, provided you have the mutations, such as small horns, wings, or extra eyes like their father.

[shadow=black,right]RULES[/shadow]
☆ There is no set naming theme for this litter, but loner names are preferred as the father, Draekon, prefers them.
☆ This is by no means required, but bonus points will be given if you use the names Amour, Taegue, or Asvini. These are the names of Draekon's deceased siblings, and he would like to name at least one of his children after them.
☆ Please be at least semi-active with these children! We definitely know that school and work and unexpected events can get in the way, but at least 8 posts a month is preferred.
☆ Please don't kill off these children before they're at least 6 months old! Or contact Stilly or Gorgon if you have a plot idea that involves them dying before this point.
☆ Real time aging is preferred, but not required. They will start at 2 months.
☆ They are not required to stay in Tanglewood until adulthood, but it is preferred that you contact Stilly or Gorgon if you have a plot involving them leaving Tanglewood.
☆ Gorgon and I have a right to rehome your child if you do not follow these rules.
