Please follow all policies and procedures for adopting a character, and ensure you understand their contracts before you apply. Each character adheres to their own contract, put in place by the adopter! In adopting a character, you are agreeing to the prior placed stipulations and the contract in place for said character. Check with player-owned characters' adoption info for their individual contracts, as their contracts may vary from ours. For information on submitting your own adoptables for 'feature' on this page, click here for more information and templates. Please note that this page is regularly updated, and inactive players will have their adopts removed to keep this resource clear of clutter.
DCG Leadership reserves the right to reclaim (pack) adoptables in the case of inactivity, minimal play (under 75 posts), or in cases of contract-breaking.

Ciccio Agosti |
Contract: Relaxed
HookBorn to an immigrant and a Portland transplant, Ciccio Agosti grew up in a largely social, busy household, giving him immense insight on bartering, speechcraft, and how to best make himself heard. Guided by his instinct and keenness for mercantile craft and innate conviviality, it wasn't long on his venturing further from his home before he came upon Alric Braithwaite, and taken in by the Braithwaite household in Palisade as a ward to better his crafts. Ever curious of what life has to offer, Del Cenere promises a green pasture and full coffers, garnering Ciccio's discerning eye and silver tongue. |

Wilfred Pierson |
Contract: Relaxed
HookGreat-Nephew to Dillon and brother to Lucille and Belmont, Monty and Willy set out to aid their sister in the wake of his grandmother's death to find Dill and patch up what was revealed to be a gaping hole in the familial tapestry. While he and Willy lingered behind in Palisade to hone their skills, perhaps it's the residual adventurous yearning inherited from his grandmother, Harebelle, that gives him the desire to set out and join Lucille in the Gang. |

She also has heard rumor from some traders in town of some runaway who matches her sister's description. |

HookBorn in the Portland area alongside siblings Colm Bromley, Sean Butler, and O'Shae Bromley and raised by parents Jarvis Butler and Saoirse Bromley, Kieran and his siblings enjoyed a relatively well-adjusted upbringing along the coast.

Sterling Howle |
Contract: Relaxed
HookAn amnesiac on the lam from the ghosts of his past, Sterling Howle has found his way to Palisade and begun the process of rebuilding a life from scratch. With a new support network found in the Whitesage siblings, he has established himself as a handyman and stable boy to the Winthrop household to begin paying back an arbitrary debt he has set up for himself. He is learning literacy and other important skills, though he's slow on the uptake, and relies heavily on benefactor (and crush), Page - though, with the siblings all chattering over ideas of venturing towards Del Cenere's territory, he finds himself at a crossroads - will he follow those he trusts? |

Winslow Whitesage |
Contract: Relaxed
HookWinslow is sister to Bisbee, Nogales, and Page. She is also related to Wichita and Tallahassee. She traveled across country to be closer with her sister in Del Cenere Gang.

3. Listing Adoptables
3.1 How do I make my adoptable appealing?
It's no secret that it can be somewhat difficult, sometimes, to draw in a potential adopter to the broad swathes of open characters floating about on-board! The following information is by no means a definitive way of ensuring adoption, but can certainly help to give prospective players something to grab onto:
- Avoid blank or filler-text templates. Sometimes it can be easiest to just slap up the name, birthday, and family information up onto a character page and let the adopter fill it out as things come to them - however! Looking at a large and in-depth template, especially one with no actual information on it outside of the name, birthdate, species, or family, can be very daunting at first glance. When setting up your adopts, less is more! Starting off with a smaller template, with basic information and hooks, is much more digestible at first glance than a block of Lorum Ipsum under 14 different sections.
- Try to supply something to grab onto. Much like the above, having nothing to go off of at all can also prove a deterrent! You don't need to write a novella in each section, but having a brief hook for physical descriptions, some bullet points to build a more in-depth personality off of, and a little synopsis about the character and a brief history or potential influences in their life can carry ideas further than total blank slates! Try to fill out information as much as you're able, even little superfluous details like size can help build an investment into a character.
- Remember to tag your adoptables. Tags! These are the little categories at the bottom of wiki pages - and can help people find your adoptables (especially with the Open Characters category). Someone looking for a coyote, or a coydog, may be sifting through the appropriate tag, you never know when wiki-perusing might draw someone onto your pages!
- Try promoting them in the on-board Open Characters thread! The more eyes on your pages, especially with little hooks and flavors to appeal to players, the higher likelihood you may draw in a window-shopper!
- Remember to remove your characters from this resource once they're adopted. That way we don't draw in any late folks and have to be the harbinger of disappointment! Additionally, you may add your picked-up adoptables beneath the "Adoptable Archive" section, if you so wish!
3.2 Templates
Looking to use a simple Del Cenere template for your adoptable? Look no further! We have what you're seeking, right here!

Additionally, we have:
