Name: Rumpus Cat
Gender: Male
Age: Adult (25-28)
Tribe: HenchCat
Tribe Position: Warrior
Family: Unknown (He was found abandoned as a baby outside of the junkyard, by Old Deuteronomy-Hope that's alright Fenrir)
Appearance: Rumpus has always taken good care of his body. He is of a healthy weight, for his age. He's got muscles, but they are not bulgy or sickeningly huge. His body is more agile then overbearing/brute strength. He does have big leg muscles, however. His fur coat is slick and is black. So deep of black, one can feel as though they're slipping into the abyss if they stare too long at it. He has a white chest, and a small patch of black fur over his white chest that looks like an R if you cock your head to the right. Contrary to his slick and almost oriental styled fur on his body, his mane is extremely fluffy, long, and wild. He mostly will leave his mane unkempt, and wildly out there. But on the off chance, he will have the urge to pull it back and up. He also has deep crimson eyes; eyes that remind Rumpus of the color of blood.

Human Appearance:
Personality: Everyone, whenever they think of the Rumpus Cat thinks first and foremost about his fighting prowess and his accomplishments. As a fighter, he was never bigger or badder then his opponents. For the most part, they usually had the upperhand when it came to strength. Rumpus is quite clever, and intelligent. He has this unique ability to outthink, outwit or use his opponents strength's against them. So far, he's always been able to win out over a superior enemy; and in some instances he's been able to beat several superior enemies alone. However, Rumpus would simply state that luck was on his side. And he does consider himself lucky, but believe's it's always a gamble. He is arrogant though. Well, he feels he's confident in his own abilities but he's so overly confident that others dub him as arrogant.
He does have a good heart, but after so many countless brutalities he's committed and has been a part of, his good intentions have been buried. He now thinks if the road to hell is paved with good intentions, then it won't matter what he does. He will go after what he wants, and has adopted Macavity's policy, by any means necessary. Rumpus is horribly tactful. He is able to get his jobs for Macavity done, without appearing like a monster. He not only has the respect and trust of Macavity, he has managed to be revered as a hero to the cats on the streets, and has turned into a legend among the jellicles; despite the fact that he left the yard during his teen years.
This is mainly due to his tactfulness, and devious plans. However, he does have natural charisma that others flock to. Not to mention, his face, despite his unfortunate red eyes, looks like one that others can trust. If one is fortunate to be friends with or have the trust of Rumpus, he is definitely someone to have on their side. However, if anyone did cross him, he will not hesitate to let them know how much they'll regret that decision. Because of his unique deceptive abilities, others find it hard to read Rumpus. He does use humor and talking a lot as a form of keeping others guessing. When he's not throwing punches, you can guarantee his mind is coming up with some sort of plot or scheme.
Upon first contact, Rumpus does appear friendly. He is the type who can go up to anyone, even someone like Otrox, and strike up a conversation. He is funny, and though does have the misfortune to ramble on, he generally is good company. Despite appearances however, Rumpus usually leaves his personal opinions that he has of others, to himself. Although, flattery doesn't affect him, he will pretend like he loves his ego being inflated. If he ever is in a bad mood, the only way to tell will be his causal way of committing crimes or his causal way of expressing his opinion. (ie, having a normal conversation and then him saying he hates something about them.) He also, when he's annoyed or irritated, will cock an attitude, and can be full of sass. He does still have contact with some jellicles, however, he doesn't agree or believe in their religion of the heavyside. He always believes the choice is a barbaric sacrificial ritual, and that they can be just as cruel and immoral as Macavity is; and furthermore believe the Jellicles are hypocrites in that right.
Describing word: Tactician
History: None of the Jellicles know where he came from or anything about his heritage. Old Deuteronomy had found him outside of the yard, as an infant. He had unusual markings and the most bizarre colored eyes. Rumpus was named by Old Deuteronomy, and he took the tom into the Jellicle Junkyard. The elders took care of him as best they could. But they were busy with their own duties around the yard. Rumpus did receive a lot of love from them. And he got attention, but as he started to grow up he felt like he wasn't getting enough attention.
He started off small, petty thievery. Small rebellious acts to gain the attention of others in the tribe. He also would hang around Macavity from time to time, however, where as he would get severely punished for the things they both did. Rumpus would get a slap on the paw and then a muffin. Although he had never been a huge friend of Macavity, the two usually would only communicate when they'd be doing something "wrong". However, this is when he began to realize that were Macavity was being looked down upon for his actions, Rumpus barely got any sort of punishment.
Wasn't that "wrong" as well? This is when he began to really question what was wrong and what wasn't. And he also began to question what gave the Jellicles the moral superiority to judge between right and wrong. He began to question EVERYTHING about the jellicles. His perception on them drastically changed and he knew that the junkyard wasn't the best place for him. He left on good terms with Old Deuteronomy and the other jellicles and proceeded to a life on the streets; when he was just a teenager.
Rumpus had left a few seasons before Macavity was exiled. During that time, Rumpus found ways to get what he wanted without appearing to look like a bad guy. He found that he had some sort of charisma that others enjoyed, trusted. Rumpus began to scheme. He liked that others liked him. He got free stuff, so he figured why not exploit that. He wasn't harming them, and he still got to enjoy himself. Instead he bullied the bullies of the streets. He purposely went out looking for fights and starting them. He committed brutalities that he still sometimes has nightmares about.
Yet, despite the horrible things he had done to others, the other alley cats adored and revered him. They even went so far as to name him "The Great" Rumpus Cat. Which only made him question even more why these things that he felt were "wrong", got him praise. How could one cat be condemned for doing the same things that he was idolized by others for? This is most likely why his moral compass is somewhere in the murky grey area. To him, no one has the right definition of the word "morals". During his time, of taking on the role of becoming the local hero, he had made contact with Macavity once more. He had learned how Macavity was exiled, and Rumpus and Macavity kept in contact. Rumpus wouldn't go as far as to say they were friends at that point, but he respected Macavity.
The Ginger tom had big plans, and Rumpus was more then eager to help Macavity with them. During the first few years, Rumpus remained in the streets. He continued doing what he had been. Only, unbeknownst to anyone else, save Macavity, Rumpus was scouting. During his famous battles, that he gained more reputation, trinkets, even ladies for; he would also find the strongest alleys that had been brave during the situation and helped to recruit them over to Macavity's tribe.
Although, he himself wasn't an official hench cat, he helped to increase Macavity's numbers under the noses of all the alley cats and the jellicles. Rumpus will of course meet and talk with some of the jellicles, as he is still on good terms with them. However, he has been a free spirit since he left the yard and goes where he wants. He wanted to be closely tied with the fate of Macavity and his tribe. And months before Grizabella became the next jellicle choice, Rumpus became an official hench cat. He knows he holds no special position to the warehouse tribe, but he does tell Macavity of information he will pick up on the streets and from jellicles he runs across and talks with.
Macavity had sent Rumpus out on his greatest mission yet. Macavity only revealed that he had something of importance that he was personally going to take care of. Rumpus never asked for details, but was asked to create a lot of blood, chaos, and mayhem for the ginger tom as a distraction. And wouldn't you know it, Rumpus pretty much painted a big old bulls-eye around his neck marched into a street where two gangs of pollicle dogs were known to roam. He causally killed one dog, but made it look like the neighboring peke's had done it.
An all out battle between the Peke's and the Pollicles broke out. Rumpus was sly and stealthy, picking them off one by one, while they were too busy attacking each other. Eventually, he was down to three dogs when they had finally noticed him. Outsmarting them, he was able to get the two Pollicles to turn on the last Peke. He also decided, he would only face the strongest of the two Pollicles first. Once he did, he of course kept the duel as long and as drawn out as possible to buy Macavity the most time. Eventually, he found an opening and tired of being beat up, and 'making it look good', he took it and was able to kill the beast. The last pollicle ran away scared.
He didn't know how, but that became his most impressive battle to date, and was worshiped even more among the Alleys. Aside from the one Pollicle that got away there had been no witnesses, and they came up with all sorts of crap. He even heard that the Jellicles thought of him as a sort of legend because of that battle; a legend that grew up in their tribe. Rumpus returned to the warehouse after that. Macavity told him the mission was a success and had told him he placed trust in him. And that he had been glad when he accepted Rumpus into his tribe.
That was probably the first moment he felt physically attracted to Macavity. And when he let others in the warehouse know he was proudly bi. Still, he never acts on his physical attraction for Macavity, since the tom has never shown that he was attracted to him. He though had proven his loyalty to the Ginger tom; though wonders why Macavity still lets him get away with seeing and talking with the jellicles. Just before the Jellicle ball, he ran into Rumpleteazer in the streets. What started off as talking led to a kiss. After the ball, one that didn't go to. (Usually Alonzo did his song in the past. That year had been his first invitation to it, since before he left. He didn't ever want to go back) He and Teazer would meet outside of the yard to talk, and snog some more. He has no idea why she continues to meet with him. But he believes sex is all they both want out of their current relationship.
RP Sample: Stalking the dark alley ways, he continued in silence. His feet managed to move quickly and the softest noise was heard. His slick black tail moved upwards like a lightening rod. The night cast down, and Rumpus blended quite nicely to the dark buildings he was hovering beside. He was itching for a fight, some days he just got to anxious, and pacing never did anything to release the emotions he would feel. Even a rat scampering into view would do something for him. He'd be able to sink his teeth into the small rodent. That was when he heard a noise, faint though it was, creeping up behind him. His crimson eyes twinkled in the gleam of the moonlight and he gave a smirk. "Hitting someone from behind is the sign of a coward."
Comments: Rumpus is bi-sexual and proud of it. He believes pleasure can be found in any bed partner. He also believes love goes beyond the borders of age or gender. It is what it is. Despite being bi-sexual, the only male he's ever been attracted to in the past as been Macavity. ALSO, he is currently involved in a fling with Rumpleteazer.
