The Magician's Tale
Merasmus was born to Orb and Wand in a two-leg den not far from a mining town. The Wizard (owner) quickly adapted to Merasmus’ arrival, dubbing the kitten his “familiar”, instantly Merasmus’s wizard path had kick-started. Merasmus was a loud kit, he was very vocal about his ways and was always willing to help The Wizard of the home with his spells… wheeeennn he wasn’t busy being a needy baby, that is. Merasmus was never too close with his parents. He saw The Wizard as more of a parent than his biological parents.
With The Wizard now having a brand new familiar weaned away from her parents The Wizard decided it was best to sell Orb and Wand since they were never good familiars anyways. Merasmus got the time to say goodbye to his parents before they left but… he wasn’t close enough with them to really care. He saw them more like friends or annoying roommates than anything. Merasmus spent lots of his time hanging out with The Wizard, gathering herbs and whiskers for whatever The Wizard needed.
Merasmus was quick to learn two-leg words and writings, spending many moons studying wizardry himself and learning a bunch of spells and runes and the meanings of herbs and rocks! Good to know all of his hard work gathering wasn’t for nothing!The Magician was quick to set up her own altar and spot to work next to The Wizards. Merasmus was content with this life. Work with The Wizard, work on his own magic; rinse and repeat. Merasmsus was content with his kittypet life. That was until a Jane– Soldier came barreling into it. Coming from the streets or sewers or most likely, hell itself, Soldier was a younger spry tom who made it his life mission to ruin Merasmus’s. Merasmus became… quickly unhappy with Soldier around. The tom would constantly get in the way of Merasmus’s work and his tasks as a familiar, making The Wizard become upset with both cats.
Fed up with Soldier he set up an elaborate plan to… push Soldier into the closing screen door that leads to the backyard and make his escape! Brillant! There was only one small problem in his plan, the magician had no idea how to hunt or fend for himself in the wild! Oh no! But, not to worry, a very nice group of cats took him in and gave him whatever he wanted! Just so long as Merasmus gave them the same amount of prey back! Something they didn’t tell Merasmus for the next 3 moons until they chased him out!
Running away from his problems, the clowder was never too far behind. He could only run for so long. Slowly, he was accumulating the desired amount of prey for the clowder while he was eating from two-leg dens and garbage. Wouldn’t want to waste precious prey after-all! All at once the stalking… stopped. Merasmus thought that maybe he was safe again! And he knew how to hunt on his own, brilliant! During this period of safety the magician found another cat named Charlie and had a kit with the tom. Charlie had settled on the name Teddy for it, but Merasmus never liked the name… or Charlie much. She didn’t realize that she didn’t really like Charlie all that much, and Charlie didn’t like him all that much either. But they both loved their kit. Charlie’s dislike towards Merasmus only grew way way worse after he had learned that the magician was being hunted by a very dangerous group of cats! And up and left Merasmus and Teddy. Merasmus may have been a failure in a lot of things in life, but he wouldn’t fail at being a father. For the next few moons he would take care of Teddy and everything seemed fine until… The scent of that clowder was around again.Taking his child he quickly fled, returning back to his owner's den. Teddy would be safe here. After leaving the kit with his previous owner, the magician kept on running, hopefully to a place where the clowder could never find him. Mythicalspecter has now been a resident of Shadowclan for a good few moons.
