User ImageName: Laoise [pronounced Leesha]

Nicknames: Lee

Breed: Sorrel Abyssinian

Attached to: Breu / Anwnn, potentially.

Alignment: Order

Blood Type: Type A

Fav. Food: Chicken salad sandwich -- but with no greenery or anything on it. Just chicken salad and white wonderbread.

Hated Food: Sweets. Lee definitely doesn't have a sweet tooth.

Hobbies:

Watch your shadow - Cats are hunters by nature, and Laoise definitely doesn't deny this instinct. Anything that moves, she will stalk, hunt, and follow. For small creatures like squirrels and birds [oh, especially birds] this means their inevitable doom. For larger creatures like humans, it means more that she makes efforts not to be seen, to trail in their shadows without getting caught, to lurk under beds and attack their feet as they pass. Usually the thrill is not in catching her prey but in getting close enough to startle it without being found out.

To the highest point - Things should be seen from above - a philosophy to live by. Laoise makes a point to get to the highest points she can find and get a good view of the going ons below her, so that she can observe from a position of power. Inside, this might mean on top of that great grandfather clock, or perched on your bookcase. Outside, it means winding her way up fire escapes to sit on the edge of the roof and regard the moving people below like ants.

Feather collection - Lee has a thing for birds, but she has even more of a thing for feathers. Every time she gets her claws around one of the fluttery beasts, she collects another trophy for her collection, the feathers clustered around her throat and behind her ears. When she sees a particularly bright and glorious specimen, she tends to get carried away, distracted from her current aims to hunt down red or blue or violet feathers.

Virtues:

I am who I am - Infused with confidence, Lee never considers the possibility that any aspect of her personality should change. She is not afraid of who she is, and doesn't suffer from self-doubt: certain that she's attractive and capable, she holds herself with poise and generally that is all she needs. Even when she doesn't know what she's doing, this aura of certainty can make her seem more in control than she really is.

Quick decisions - In the heat of what might be a worrisome moment, Laoise usually remains level-headed and self certain, and is perfectly comfortable deciding what action needs to be taken next. This does not, of course, mean that she's always right -- but at least she does something. There are certainly times when doing anything is better than doing nothing, and she knows this, and is willing to accept the consequences of her decisions. She doesn't mind being the one to make a mistake.

I see what you did there - Yellow-green eyes easily take in the world around her, and Lee is detail oriented. This means that she picks up on the small visual details that other people might miss, and can also read peoples' body language. She can tell if they're likely to run, or fight, or explode. She might not know quite what to do with it then, of course...

With cat-like tread - Years of hunting and prowling have left their mark on Laoise, and made her skilled at being both silent and invisible. Combined with her observational skills, she's very good at not getting scene. This makes her a capable scout -- something she'll use without a lick of discretion, sneaking around to listen in on conversations or see where people go.

Flaws:

True red-head - Hot-blooded and hot-tempered, Laoise has very little patience for -- well, anything. She is easily irritated, getting snappish even about small things, and when something really pisses her off, she's likely to explode. Think of the typical pissy cat. One minute you are petting behind the ears. The next, they have decided they are done with it and long claws are latched into your wrist. That is Lee. One word that questions her or pokes holes in her confidence, and she'll poke holes back.

Before a fall - With self-assurance can come overconfidence, and it is possible to think too highly of yourself. Laoise's comes with absolute certainty that she is brilliant, beautiful, and right in just about everything she does. This frequently leads to a refusal to listen to common sense from others, and extreme difficulty taking criticism from anyone, blowing up at those who are only trying to help.

Caution to the wind - A tendency to act quickly means a failure to think first -- so sometimes Lee's actions are heedless of flaws in her plan, and likely to do as much damage as good. Instead of taking the ten extra seconds to figure out 'wait, this is a bad idea', she leaps in head-first, only to regret her mistake later -- not that she'd ever admit it. She'd get snappy at anyone suggesting she should have behaved differently, making it hard for her to learn from her errors.

The razor's edge - Some people say exactly what they're thinking, blunt and to the point. Lee, on the other hand, has a tendency to say things the meanest way possible. If she corrects someone, it's likely to be with a 'you dumbass' tagged onto the end. She could be polite, she could soften her tone and say things in a nicer, more careful way -- but she doesn't.

Challenge: Watch your shadow.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION : CAT FORM

Face/Ears: http://i.imgur.com/kq3j8.jpg , http://i.imgur.com/MrASP.jpg http://www.animalsites.net/news/gallery/abyssinian-cats/abyssinian-cats-2.jpg Cream and gold, with some reddish patterning -- but mostly pale.

Body: She should be lanky, slender, and long-legged.

Fur: Short! Forehead star should be the same henna'd red as her human hair.

Eyes: Yellow-green.

Accessories: Feathers in every color, tied around her neck and tucked in behind her ears and maybe in her tail.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION : HUMAN FORM

Eyes: Yellow-green, narrow and serious.

Hair: Tangled, messy, dark henna'd red-orange, partly pulled back at the base of her neck but most of it escaping. Crimped. Woven into it are feathers of every color.

Face: Long, thin, and somewhat masculine, as opposed to very feminine and pretty. Her nose is very straight and perhaps a bit oversized. Her mouth is straight and serious.

Clothes: Heavily celtic-inspired, much like Guineviere from that terrible King Arthur movie: leather on leather and leather, bracers, all of it dark over a white, simple shift. More belts than she could possibly need. Leggings with laces up the outsides and potentially cloth-wrapped feet. It should look like hunting wear, meant to move quietly through the forest and blend in with the trees. Mostly it is shades of brown, with pops of brightly colored feathers mixed in.

I actually decided 4 was just fine.

I'm putting link dump in here so I can sort it out later.

This concept reads well, and she should be fun to see in action. I applaud you for making sure to keep her ability to figure out what someone might do in the realm of reality, though body language, rather than 'knowing what they're thinking'.

It'll need a once-over by Mouse, but otherwise:
