Welcome to Gaia! ::

*stares at the leaf* stare .... Qing!

QING, GET YOUR BUTT IN HERE NOW!! scream

Name: Anandi Kaithalathu [Ah-nah-n-dee Kah-ee-the-li-th]
Gender: Female
Age: 22 years old [Birthday: November 17th]
Race: (Golden tabby) Tiger-ocelot hybrid
Residence: University of Gaia dorm room (Durem)
Height: approx. 5' 4"
Body Type: Animalistic. Anandi has an anthromorphic body, but she is able to carry a human-like appearance. Her hands and feet are just like anyone else's, but her face is like an ocelot's. She's not overly muscley (nor busty, being about the average B/C for her size), but her body is fit and toned, her thighs and calves being a little thicker than average (due to muscle, as she runs quite often). Her tail, when limp, could hang down to about her ankles, being a little longer than it normally would.
Weight: about 187lbs (due to muscle weight) (TELL ANYONE AND DIE.)
Skin: Tan, with darker tan markings. The markings on her face resemble a tiger's (with the exception of the heavily lined eyed), as well as the markings spreading from her shoulders down to her arms. The markings on the rest of her back, legs, and tail are like that of an ocelot's, thick circled spots. Anandi's skin appears to be furry at some points, and is naturally very soft.
Eye Color/Style: Bright hazel (Golden, with a brown trim lining the iris and the slitted pupil); heavily black-lined, cat-like. Her eyes appear to be larger than average compared to a human, but they are proportional to her "unusual" face. She wears glasses when in her dorm room, but during classes or when out and about, she wears special contacts.
Hair Color/Style: Black; Long (hangs down to about her tail bone), a little thick, normally worn in a braid. Her bangs frame her face, with the left side swept across her forehead to the right (sometimes hides the right eye).

Normal Attire: Due to how often she changes in one day, she doesn't have anything specific she wears from day to day. She often wears things that show off her figure and markings, usually dressing for warmer weather than cold. She does wear a thin, black leather choker with a small coin attached to the front basically at all times; a gift from her mother before she divorced her father and moved away.

Attribute: Earth
Ability(s): All of Anandi's physical abilities are due to her appearance. She was heightened senses (hearing, vision, smell), and her strength is above average (for a girl). She's a very fast runner, has a higher stamina, and she can lift about 165lbs before things start getting a little tricky.

While it's extremely painful for her, Anandi can become completely animalistic, but she prefers not to fully "transform". She feels that the wildcat form is useless as it disables a lot of the functions needed for her daily life, but she does sometimes give herself her coat of fur when it's cold out or sharpens her teeth when eating harder foods.

Hobbies: Reading comics (SHHHH!), writing stories, running, cooking, dancing... She likes to keep herself active.
Favorite Color(s): Purples, reds, blues, black (particularlly fond of the darker versions)
Favorite Food: Chicken, potatoes

Personality: Anandi is not one to take lightly. She's kind of blunt, speaks her mind, moody, and stubborn. While she can come off as being a b***h, she really means well with people, and once getting past the personality quirks, can actually be a good person. She can be easily annoyed (especially by her roommate, Qing) and quick to anger (a trait she'd picked up from her father over the years), but she's pretty good about keeping herself in check and not doing anything drastic. With most people, she's a bit superficial; faking smiles and patience with people she really doesn't like, putting down people she actually respects, and pretty much acting like the stereotypical "mean girl". She puts on this front without realizing it, and only very few people know the real Anandi, who is actually down-to-earth, sweet, caring, and an over-all loyal friend.

Anandi actually cares a great deal about how she looks. She keeps up with clothing trends, usually wearing whatever the latest fashion is made by the best brands. (She doesn't seem to have much of a problem financially, taking on small jobs during school and mooching off of her parents.) She likes to keep her arms and legs mostly bare, being proud of her "beautiful" skin, and sometimes even wears outfits that specifically show off her markings. She doesn't like to think that she's egotistical, but her feline nature allows her to be very vain, and she thinks very highly of herself in that aspect. Who says you can't be smart AND pretty?

Current History: Anandi is currently attending the University of Gaia, taking a full class schedule for the summer. She stays in the dorms with her roommate, Qing (a shapeshifting alien, who was supposedly originally a girl when he first signed up for college, but then took on the appearance of a boy sometime later; no one's questioned this so far, and Anandi stopped caring), and is helping him watch over some sort of special project that happens to be a leaf. The leaf likes to attach itself to her hair, and won't come off for several days at a time.

Outside of classes, Anandi participates on the track team (being their #2 star player [though in her mind, she's #1]) and is also currently working in the student store part time.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?? *holds up the leaf* stressed



March 13, 2007: There appears to be a leaf in the house. Qing won't let me get rid of it, so I guess it must be important for some reason... Whatever. So long as he doesn't try to force it onto me for whatever reason, I suppose I'm fine with it.

March ??, 2007: The leaf won't get out of my hair. =____= It's as if it's attached... QING!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO THIS DAMN THING?!

I know what it's called, you dork. stare
