From House of Khilat
Revision as of 15:52, 28 November 2020 by Chiliad (talk | contribs) (→‎Alias)

Cathkeryn has silver grey hair with dark grey stripes. Her eyes are blue grey. She is much larger than typical for her species, weighing around 20 lbs.

She is very cat like in all her forms. She’s lazy when she can be, but often playful or affectionate. She uses her ESP ability to gage the intent of others and is very protective of Chiliad and her companions.

Background

Type: Elven Cat

Owner: Chiliad Khilat

When Chiliad sought a special companion to serve as a kind of familiar, he summoned a cat. Cathkeryn arrived as a young kitten, but already exceptional and smart. She grew quickly over the next year, remaining a close and nearly constant companion.

Three special animal companions (Cathkeryn, Pueo, Sibyl) serve Chiliad like wizard familiars, performing small tasks, including house hold chores, guarding Chiliad in his sleep, and delivering messages.
