♤ OTHER INFO

APPEARANCE

She's a medium sized specimen, with a body that's a little over two feet long and a tail that seeming goes on forever. Her eyes are a dark amber, framed with black and brown markings and complimented by a black nose and mouth. Her coat is a thick, ashy grey with brown and black markings and seven black rings on her tail.

The first thing others notice about her is her attitude, which is too comfortable for comfort. Her mannerisms are a lot like something you'd imagine a greaser from the fifties doing, whether it's cockily lazing around and throwing anecdotes at others or walking too slow and confidently or sleeping in a tree, she always looks like she's up to no good. She often seems tired and out of it, like she's just woken up from a nap.

SOUL STONE

She keeps her stone tied around her left hind leg, above the hock, and has wrapped it in a strip of leather to conceal its color and keep it from being ripped off in the instance she catches her leg on something. She's gained enhanced strength and immunity from her pente level stone.

PERSONALITY

If anyone can live up to the stereo type of the lazy, thieving, good-for-nothing cat, it's Contrabelle. She'd rather be asleep than awake, and the only thing that can rouse her from her lackadaisical existence is the sound and smell of a challenge.

She hates the word no and all its connotations, she hates locked doors, she hates the idea of having to stay in one place and do as one is told, and she loathes having to do any amount of work.

When she feels she's been challenged, she thinks she's a lot bigger and stronger than she actually is, and sometimes forgets that she's not a tiger. She's a dirty fighter and is willing to scrap with someone for fairly petty reasons, if she's awake enough to feel that it's necessary.

Her morality is as grey as her pelt and she doesn't understand the concept of private property, therefore she has no qualms with breaking and entering or theft or the like.

She's young, and still rather naive and willing to believe what others tell her without question. She hasn't had enough experience with matters of love to understand giving oneself to another person, and commitment scares her because she thinks it means giving up her freedom entirely. She's intrigued by romance, however, and flirts often.

On the positive side, she's a fiercely loyal and protective friend, she gets along with others easily due to her non-judgmental nature, and she hates seeing others upset; she's more than willing to make a fool of herself if it can get someone to laugh. She loves traveling and is rather adventurous, but she's patient enough to let things happen to her.

She loves storytelling and jokes, and she's one hell of a deadpan snarker. She's been known to stretch the truth for the laughs.

HISTORY

The strange thing is, she can't remember what happened to her family--or where she came from at all, actually.

Her first memory is of hiding under an overturned crate to get away from the rain, and being so cold and wet that she couldn't feel her padded toes. She couldn't tell you how old she was at the time, but she guesses it's was anywhere from two to three years ago. 

At one point in her life she almost starved to death, but an aging coyote (Old Dog) offered her some food and showed her the ropes to being a survivalist. She followed him around until he made it clear that she was more of an annoyance than a companion, but she's always been grateful towards him and lends that gratefulness to most canines in general as an extension. She's more likely to bother a fellow cat than a Kyon dog.

Since then, she's slept wherever she could and ate whatever she could find, and it's become monotonous over the years. She's taken to causing mischief just so she has something to pass the time with, and she loves playing practical jokes on travelers and causing inconveniences for people when she runs into them. 

She currently lives in the jungle just outside the Katharos Falls.
