Fav. Food: Waffles, totally dry, unless you want to paste some Fancy Feast over them.
Hated Food: Anything not fishy or waffles.
Hobbies: Chasing Ankles - This is sadly not limited to simply being a cat. Whether in human form or a fluffy, flat-faced kitten, Derpraline is a second shadow to those she loves and her team. She is THEIR CAT and she wants to be there for every single thing that happens in their lives! It doesn't quite occur to Derp, however, that she is misplaced, annoying, and clumsy.
Hats - There is a hat for every occasion, and this girl wants to own them all! Helmets are preferable, but if there's no fighting, why shouldn't she wear a pretty one? Berets, straw hats, big affairs that no one has worn in over a hundred years. More than once this little girl has been seen pawing through trash at thrift shops for hats she can spiff up and make her own creation. Without a hat, Derpraline is incredibly disjointed, and nearly useless in her distraction and feeling of nakedness. For what little sense this girl has, just give her a damn hat! It's rumored that if you are awakened by this cat, you will get a henshin pen AND a hat! Certainly she has enough to share the love!
Crayola - Look at all the pretty colors! With Mags' disappearance, it's now Parker's room that is littered with crayons, markers, and finger paints. The special ones of course, so as not to ruin all the nice property everyone has when Praline gets a bit out of control! She loves to draw all her friends, and give them all special, pretty hats so that they can all be happy and together forever! Vogue members are often gifted with these dubious quality drawings.
Gemstone: Sapphire
Virtues:Loving - There are few people in your life that will love you more than Derpraline. Upon meeting you, she immediately fixates and loves you dearly if you are kind to her and her people. This open heart responds like a waterfall onto any senshi, and sometimes even Negaversians. However, she has been scolded lately by Astraea, and is much more careful to not show her need to rub up against anyone, especially in the middle of battle.
Good Memory - If you need a message delivered, Derpraline is the girl to do it! Her earliest jobs were fetch and carry, and it's a talent that she has developed over time. The message cannot be too long or too complex, but she's a good kitty to send if you need to reach all the senshi without losing a message. Numbers need not apply.
Steadfast - Once you are Derpraline's, you are hers for life. If she rubs against your ankle twice, and there is no other cat to claim you, Derpraline considers you HERS. Suddenly a corrupt senshi? No worries! Derp will never consider you a lost soul! There's good in you SOMEWHERE! On the outs with the group for missing a chance to attack? That's ok! Derp counts on you!
Flaws:Naive - It is incredibly easy to fool Derp. If you act sweet, she will probably try to love you with all her bitty, kitty soul. This is also why she is not allowed out away from her core group of keepers much, because it's just not safe to have a guardian cat out and about with a trust complex. She knows there's bad in the world, but she thinks that with a little work, EVERYONE can be good. Even Charonite is just LONGING to turn over that new leaf, right?
Obnoxious - Sweet, good-intentioned, and absolutely irritating as hell. Just because you want quiet time, or to be alone, or to indulge in some good screamer metal does not meant that Derpraline is going to be quiet or cease her activities. She operates on her own schedule, and is mildly distressed when that schedule is interrupted. She'd never yell at you, but a pathetic little fidgeting girl tossing her hats around the place to find the best 'comfortwear' is absolutely going to happen. Passive aggressive is a go!
Mentally Handicapped - Sometime, somewhere, Derpraline was brain damaged. Nobody is quite sure about the details, but as such this little kitten is just a tad bit slower than the rest. She has almost no recollection of anything, and relies almost entirely on Astraea for how to do her job. Her higher-level reasoning is almost nonexistent, but what she lacks in brains, she more than makes up for in dedication and heart.
Elaborating on this, I wanted to make it clearer with a suggestion from Maru. Derpraline can carry messages and awaken senshi, but she is not good for much else. Possibly as a cheerleader, she shines like the brightest star, but not as an agent of good. Once a week she has to meet with Astraea to review the basics in a small pep talk. Talking to Negaverse agents is
bad, to awaken senshi you have to FEEL IT OUT. Giving hats to Charonite is NOT AT ALL ADVISED. She doesn't ACTUALLY forget, she's just so exuberant that she needs some coddling and scolding.
Derpraline is a functioning, yet mildly retarded kitten. If any complicated problems were to arise with the senshi, she would run screaming for the head kittycat. She's not meant to solve large problems, or even deal with emotional ones past a large helping of love. And hats.
