  Talents Weapon Training Kitai has become proficient in a few different, common weapons over the years. A mixture of practice and experience has assured this, made obvious by the fact that she's still alive. Musician In her spare time, what little she can find, Kitai rather enjoys practicing with and playing the Violin. She's getting better and better with each passing year, even if she might not be that great just yet. Drink Mixing Much better at this than her violin, Kitai knows how to mix a mean drink or prepare various cocktails for almost any occasion. Drinking, more often than not, came with the territory when working as a Sword For Hire. She's broadened her horizons from Ale or Mead to the minagerie of different beverages she now knows how to make. Hobbies Reading The petite Bengal is more than happy enough, given the time, to find a quiet spot to read. Whether it be lounging in the library, or outside somewhere under the warming sun. This does not occur as much as she'd like, given her business and general schedule. Exploration There are few things more exciting than discovery, so far as Kitai is concerned. When she wasn't to be found inside the oppressive bowels of The Golden Tether, or otherwise seeing to business, it was likely the snow feline was off somewhere seeking scarcely seen places. There could always be some long forgotten treasure or relic. Hunting Kitai is, quite obviously, a predator. While this isn't necessary to survive considering the luxurious nature of The Golden Tether, the activity remains a favorite of her's to this day. Any predator is likely to understand the thrill of the hunt, and the unmatched adrenaline rush that accompanied it. Combat Techniques This ties into the Tiger's occupation, her trade. If one were to ask her, she'd explain that there are many ways to deal with any given combat situation, be it spear, sword or one's bare hands at the throat of your foes.

• Seeking

  Business Associates Contacts that offer regular work suited to Kitai. Typically combat related. Body guard, weapon-training, something along those lines. This doesn't mean I'm opposed to other ideas! Friends/Acquaintances It's always good to have friends, or at the very least allies, when conducting business or working about dangerous parts of the world.

  Enemies What's life without a little challenge? Physical battle doesn't necessarily have to occur either, this could be an entirely business oriented rivalry. Or not. There might be blood everywhere, who knows?

• Abilities

  Fury Craft
  
  Furies are elemental spirits of earth, water, fire, wind, metal, or wood. Some are small and cannot be seen, and others are powerful enough to manifest when called upon by their weilders. Personal furies usually manifest within one during their early childhood or adolescent years, and are controlled via the mind. Furies can be applied to nearly every task in one's daily life. This fury-based magic is accomplished in one of two forms. First, one may draw from the strength of their fury to increase their own. For example, earth crafters often draw physical might from the ground, through their furies, to allow them to lift loads far too heavy for normal people, while wind crafters can increase their speed and metal crafters their endurance. The second form of furycrafting is to "manifest" a fury. This involves the fury taking a visible form, often the shape of an animal, though taking the shape of a human is not unheard of. Manifested furies are necessary for the most powerful forms of furycraft, including flight (windcrafting) and healing (watercrafting).
  
  The known types of "Fury Craft" are as listed below:
  
  Water - Disrupted by Fire.
  
  Earth - Disrupted when contact with the ground is lost.
  
  Wood - Disrupted by surrounding the user with metal.
  
  Fire - Disrupted by Water.
  
  Air - Disrupted by Earth, particularly in salt form.
  
  Metal - Disrupted by Wood.
  
  Kitai shows considerable talent with Earth, Air, and Metal crafting. The refinement of this "considerable talent" is unknown, hence it is unclear as to the amount of danger this Tiger may pose in close-quarter combat. An explanation of the aforementioned three are below.
  
  Metal Crafting
  
  Heavily used in swordplay, effectively granting the "crafter" to change the hardness of metal, allowing them to strike with diamond-hard blades. It has been observed that physical combat between two metal crafters can occur in complete darkness since they can sense nearby metal. Shields can also be made more flexible to effectively absorb a greater amount of impact force than normally possible.Metal crafting is also applicable in forging weapons, and other precise metal objects. Metalcrafters also have dramatically increased pain tolerance and physical endurance. Although they gain speed, accuracy and deadly ability in combat, metalcrafters do not become physically stronger, nor does metalcraft give them skills they have not learned. It should also be noted that they require metal weapons and/or armor to make the most of their abilities.
  
  Earth Crafting
  
  Earth crafting can be applied in various fashions, such as granting the crafter dramatically enhanced strength for as long as the crafting is sustained. Earth Crafting is also used for tracking and hunting, manipulating the earth, calming animals, and it can even inspire lust. A manifest earth fury can attack directly and can carry a crafter across the ground as if on a raft.
  
  Air Crafting
  
  Air Crafting may be used to fly (with a skilled enough crafter), control the wind, and increase speed and agility. It should be noted that they may also bend air into a lens for enhanced distance viewing, or into an "Echo Chamber" to allow verbal communication between parties without being overheard by anyone else outside said chamber. More skilled crafters may even bend the air around themselves (or more) to make themselves (or objects) invisible to those looking on outside the crafting. The ability to focus light into a devastating beam of energy is also present, as is the ability to manipulate the weather, including the creation of lightning! (Provided the energy required is met, such as a crafter drawing from the energies of a storm)
