Appearance
⇢ Species: Feline, with prominent leonine features including round ears and a tufted tail.
⇢ Height: A modest 5' and not an inch taller.
⇢ Weight: Just over 100 lbs; so light she could be practically blown away by a strong gust of wind.
⇢ Build: Small; the construction of her bones is fragile giving off the impression of physical weakness, a fact more than compensated for by the unwavering, gentle confidence of her body language.
⇢ Hair: A sheet of golden blonde hair and, while the strands are thin, there's an abundance of it that bathes her shoulders, twirls carelessly in the wind behind her as she walks, and ends in soft spirals near the small of her back.
⇢ Eyes: A deep azure much like the endless, bright blue sky on a cloudless day. Gentle wisps of lashes define their almond-like shape.
⇢ Fur/Markings: Her fur is thin, silky and full of rich color, muddled with the occasional glimpse of gold-like veins of honey through heavy cream.
⇢ Scars: Stretching across her midsection from hip to hip is a grizzly, disfiguring scar. Pink flesh is raised and either devoid or twisted and gnarled with various patches of fur, the skin having been crudely hewn open and ineptly sewn back together.
⇢ Health: 75%; Thin and malnourished, Alliah suffers from various physical ailments.
⇢ Scent: Alliah holds an affinity towards floral scents and often smells of essential oils such as lavender.
⇢ Attire: An off-white, flax linen chemise is modestly flattering in it's simplicity, having ruched sleeves with drawstrings to allow them to be tied up as necessary, paired with a wide suede belt just beneath her bust, the dark burgundy leather complimenting the floral pattern of the floor-length skirt that gives shape to her hips and sweeps across rose-colored boots. All together she creates the impression of humble sophistication and refined tact.
⇢ Weapons: Pending
“She holds herself with a gently commanding presence and her tender demeanor is reiterated through the living poetry of her mind and body, displayed by the kindness behind her blue eyes, in the genuine nature of her easy smiles, and the warmth inside the melody of her laughter. Golden hair spills across her shoulders and down the slope of her back like sunshine spun to silk, dancing in pirouetting ringlets just above the base of her tufted tail. She's dressed modestly, flattering in it's simplicity with elements of sophistication in the stitch-work, the airy linen chemise belted below her bust with a floral skirt sweeping across rose colored boots.”
Advantages
⇢ Alliah is respected by those she meets and her reputation is known for her dignity, mental strength and her kindness.
Respected"You have a good reputation about town.
At your favorite tavern, the tapster
is happy to extend you credit, and when
you walk down the street, mothers point
you out to their children as a role model.
Note that if you are villainous, this
respect will only be held by other villains,
but if you are upstanding, both villains
and good citizens alike respect you."
⇢ As a young adult, Alliah immigrated to Kasuria with dreams of becoming a singer. While these aspirations were never fruitful, she still enjoys singing a tune or two.
Beautiful Singing Voice
"Perhaps you are a baritone with
the Theriopolitan Opera. Or
perhaps you just sing as you sell
flowers in the market. Furres love
to sing, and to hear others singing."
⇢ Alliah is extremely intelligent and full of wit, and while never receiving a proper education, Alliah can do or learn almost anything when she puts her mind to it.
Sharp"Mathematical games come easily to you;
you have a rather good memory. Possibly
you're quite alert and it's difficult to
surprise you."
⇢ Alliah has a simple and transparent beauty, she is neither homely nor exceptionally gorgeous. Her facial features are not extremely typical and hold a certain allure in their slight disproportion, her bottom lip more full and rounded than the top.
Beautiful"Your physical features are memorable
and very attractive by typical Furre
standards."
Disadvantages
⇢ Born with slender, petite bones, Alliah has carried the weight of stress and responsibility on her small shoulders from a young age, the many unspoken burdens and worries impacting her as a whole, and is partly cause for a low immune system plaguing her with ailments, especially during the winter months. Frequent bouts of insomnia leave her fatigued.
Fragile
"Physically, your bones are slender,
and your overall constitution poor.
You're prone to ailments (perhaps
you also have Age_Senior*). Or maybe
you're malnourished (and you're
Poor* or In_Debt* or even both)."
⇢ Due to the physical limitations of being small and fragile, Alliah is not very strong and can maybe carry half of her own body weight. Her body is not built for physical labor and she is often exhausted even by small tasks.
Weak
"Perhaps you had a sheltered
upbringing in which physical activity was
discouraged. You might be older
(Age_Senior*). You can't lift your own
body weight off the ground."
⇢ A woman of small proportions, often being small can have its own advantages, making her movements light and quick, and not as easy of a target as one would think. In relation to her own family, Alliah is the smallest of the entire clan.
Small"This means you are somewhere
around half to three quarters of
the weight and mass of the typical
Furre, roughly fifty kilograms or under.
Your reach and your stride are shorter,
which makes you less of a fighter or
a runner, although you might make
up for this with the Advantages of
Quick*, Very_Quick*, Graceful*,
Very_Graceful*, Dextrous*, and/or
Ambidextrous*."
⇢ With no family inheritance or substantial amount of coin saved from previous employment, Alliah has taken a substantial loan which has left her nearly penniless and destitute.
In Debt
"Your story begins with you
already in need of money. How
did this come to be? Perhaps
you have a child, or an ailing
relative. Perhaps you are
a student, and your money goes
to tuition. Or perhaps there's
a more sinister reason you just
never seem to have any cash on paw..."

“There is nothing more rare, nor more beautiful, than a woman being unapologetically herself; comfortable in her perfect imperfection. To me, that is the true essence of beauty.” -
