Nicodemus

My Form

 Username: ratius
Ratlet Number: 3 
Why do you want to adopt? I've tried for a rat character since some time ago, because I've always wanted one <3 rats are wonderful! I like this particular ratlet a lot because of its color scheme (I love grey scale palette) especially the shades of grey playing to form his unique markings in his face and body and his beautiful black tail and paws; also because I've always wanted to adopt a male (and this one is dumbo!) and because the different ability he has, blindness, which can make him a very interesting character for me to draw and create a good background story for. 
Rat Name: Nicodemus 
Personality: (Likes, dislikes, how they react to people, other rats, etc.)Nicodemus is a quiet, very wise rat (especially when he grows up), but he sometimes shows his playful and "crazy" moments (like when he has his oatmeal) but quickly returns to his calm side. Also, sometimes he can be very lazy, but this is not very common. He is very comfortable getting around in his cage, in the kitchen and his owner's bedroom. He can be very distrustful and  paranoic of new things, like new people, other rats and pets, places or new items in his cage. He dislikes  cage cleaning day because he feels a  disorientated when he comes back to it. His owner is the world for him, he loves to spend time and share with him. He doesn't like deep water (as pools or ponds) because it's difficult to get orientated. 
Quirks: (Little things like "Enjoys sleeping on her back", "Loves hoarding candy wrappers", etc.) Oatmeal. In all it's presentations and forms, like oatmeal cookies, drink, cereal, flakes, etc. When his owner takes him to the kitchen ( one of the only places he's comfortable with) he uses his other keen senses to find the oatmeal store places to steal a bit for himself ( his owner once find him trying to drag an entire oatmeal cereal box to his cage). He enjoys birds singing in his owner's windows, singing and telling stories from 'the outside' that Nicodemus is so curious about ,yet scared if he ever goes there ( outside his owner's house). Also he loves to be with his owner, sleeping in his lap or in his jacket's hoody if he has one, and just spending his time with him.
What do you plan on doing with your rat? (Roleplay, Make art of, Hoard art of, etc.) I'll make lots and lots of art of him, especially to practice my rat anatomy when I draw. I would love to make an interesting story for him, maybe a comic, and make him a thread. 
If you feel you can no longer care for your Rat, will you return it here to find a new home? Yes of course
Artwork/Story? might not be able to draw something before the round ends, but I'm drawing right now ^^

Thanks for the opportunity Sketchy and Oddly Shaded! Good luck to all participants 

Wip ^^
