My character sheet:
Name: currently unknown however goes by Kat
Race: Neko
Age: 23
Occupation: Bounty Hunter
Equipment: He doesn’t carry anything but his cell phone.
Skills:
Akido
Aikido is performed by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it head-on. The aikidoka (aikido practitioner) "leads" the attacker's momentum using entering and turning movements. The techniques are completed with various throws or joint locks.

Bōjutsu
Translated from Japanese as "staff technique", is the martial art of using a staff weapon called bō which simply means "staff".

Taijutsu
Taijutsu is a form of traditional Japanese unarmed combat common to a plethora of arts utilized throughout mainland Japan's history.

Appearance:

However he wears a black cloak with hood pulled up, his ears and tail are jet black.

History:
Ever since he was little he was an outcast. Sent to live in the hills with his grandfather because he was unable to change out of his cat form. While he spent many years living with his grandfather he learned to master three forms of martial arts. Akido, Bōjutsu, and Taijutsu. He took up being a bounty hunter after his grandfather died as a means to seek out the villain that took his grandfathers life. He is often quiet and hides his appearance under his cloak. He is rarely seen in populated areas as he prefers the quiet but has been known to venture into the public eye from time to time when he needs to.

IC




The alleys wind through out the city leaving plenty of areas for those less fortunate to seek salvage amongst the long forgotten paths. The darkness that covers any of the ‘operations’ that take place from these alleys has yet to be exposed. These alleys offer far more then just a haven to those who have no where else to go, No these alleys offer far more to the criminally minded, a place that even the authorities dare to venture. There is one Alley in particular that not even the desperate would dare to venture into, they call it dead man’s alley. They named the alley this because any person to ever set foot into that shadowy hell has never returned. The alley was located on the outskirts of Kotare, the capital city of Har’awa.

A figure now stood at the end of the Alley staring into the inky black depths as he decided on his course of action. He wore a black long black cloak, which reached down to his feet, and had his hood pulled up so that the shadows covered his face. The air in the alley way appeared to shimmer as he watched it, the early morning light shining through the smog of the industrial city. He let a slight smile cross his slightly brownish colored muzzle as he tilted his head back to look at the sky. He let his hood fall backwards revealing cat like ears and gold eyes with slit pupils and a small cat like muzzle.
He sighed as he continued staring at the alley then pulled out a mobile phone with hands that somewhat resembled cat paws and he dialed a number into his phone and brought the phone up to his right ear.

“Hello Kat” the person on the other end of the phone said, the voice was cold as if it had no care for what happened to any one as long as he had his money why should he care, he could always pay others to do that for him. The person on the other end of the phone was indeed a very rich and powerful man who had sent men into this alley to ‘retrieve’ something that had been stolen from him quite a while ago. He offered a rather large bounty for anyone that can ‘eliminate’ the threat that lays with in this alley. Kat, as he is so commonly known is a rather renowned bounty hunter and has yet to come across a mission that he had not been able to pass.

“Are you sure this is the place” Kat asked with a fluid gentle voice, Had he wanted his voice would probably be sing song like and as sweet as any of the elves he had met. Some people even said that his voice was sweeter then any elves. His other ear tilted forward a little as he listened in the direction of the alley, he had sworn he heard something move. It wasn’t possible he rationalized otherwise he would have seen it move. His dirty blonde hair was pulled back into a perfect pony tail which seemed to part to let his pitch black ears through.

“Yes, Now get me my prize” The voice replied over the phone, the guy on the other end seemed to be un nerved by the calmness of this bounty hunter who had never failed.
-beep, beep, beep-
Kat lowered the phone from his ear pressing the button that would allow him to silence the phone. He then replaced the phone he carried into his pocket and pulled out a pair of sunglasses pulling them on he stepped into the alley. He carried no weapons on him however this didn’t make him any less dangerous. He pulled his hood back up covering his cat like features again perfectly disguising him. He waked further into the alley way the scent in the air was acrid and he could hear slight sounds around him.

"Ok... hes moving towards the window... NOW!" The C4 meant to block out sound exploded as the team kicked the door and ran inside. John aimed his L96 at the man at the window, looking outside at where the explosion had been. John aimed two centimeters above the man's head and slightly to the right. He shot, the bullet flying towards the left with the wind and down slightly. It hit the window with a shatter, and exploded the man's head like a watermelon, blood showering the hostages. At the same time, Team 2 moved in, flashbanging the room and clearing out the three remaining terrorists. "Good job, mates. Get them outa there. I'll meet you back at HQ" He set his radio back in the holster on his shoulder, pulled his bipod up, and jogged back to Team 1's squad car.

Much later, he arrived at the Zuun bar. He walked up to the bartender. "Two vodkas, please ma'am." He gave her a twenty dollar bill and went to sit at the end of the bar. He started sipping on it, laughing and talking with his Team. "His head just blew up and went to shit. It was funny because his body fell out the window, and a dog ran up out of no where and started licking his legs. You shoulda seen it, John."

Anara had a slow day. The weather was crappy, and everyone wanted to stay home where it was safe. Up untill these army fellas waltzed in like they owned the place she had only had a passerby or two. She got them all drinks, only one or two of them where good looking, and only the good looking ones tipped. "Whats the celebration for boys?" Anara smiled walking to the other end of the bar, leaning over towards the man who had slipped her a twenty. "Or is that confidential..." She took a shot of vodka and slid some more glasses towards the crew. "The next round is on me boys, but I expect copious amounts of dinero"

OOC: Sorry for the weak intro but im tiredz and I'll post more tomorrow

Kat drew in a deep breath the air smelled foul against his sensitive nose, His eyes able to see in the darkness without so much as a hindrance. He walked gently along the ground his ears twitched beneath the cowel straining to make out any sound that might alert him to an ambush or some sort of trap. His breathing was slightly heightened due to the nature of this mission. He had no idea that he was walking dead into a trap.
-Click-
He heard the sound of a gun being cocked and stood still listening for the sound of the trigger being compressed, the sound he was waiting for never came. However he felt a sharp blow to the back of his head, possibly the back of a rifle. He felt his legs giving in from under him as he felt himself falling to the ground. He tried to move his arms to break the fall but found that he was unable to move them. His eyes began to lose focus and everything began to fade to black.
(note: this is all taking place before current time, now I'll bring it to current time)

Kat woke rubbing his head as he had the worst headache he had ever felt. His ears stood up on end immediately as he looked around, he was in an alley way and he could see a bar across the way. His cowel had been pulled up while he was unconscious. He stood slowly and stretched his muscles out which felt as if he had been unconscious for hours. He headed into the bar and sat at one end and noticed a group of soldiers at the other end.
"Excuse me ma'am, can I get something to cure a headace?" he asked quietly, however not soft enough so that he won't be heard.

He kept his cowel up, most people he had discovered didn't accept a neko they could barely put up with elves so he was out of luck at being accepted if he lowered it. He once watched what happened to a kitsune when she revealed her true identity, he still shudders at the mental images.

John turned to the barkeeper. "Celebration for? We come in here everynight. Or I do. Anyway, we kicked ass over at... what was it, Fred's Cleaners? Three of them shitty terrorists who can't do shit took Fred, his wife, his two sisters and his kid hostage." He took a sip of the vodka. "Man Bill. You sucked on that run. Your flashbang flew out the window and got me! Damn, my ears still hurt." He laughed as Bill got up and walked out, muttering something about "Cocky snipers." "So anyway, this place is usually full. Where is everyone? Probably 'cuz off the rain, eh?" He stole a bottle from Seth and started drinking, laughing as Seth complained. "Buy another one, mate. This ones mine, so is that one." He lunged for Derek's, but Derek pulled it out of the way, causing John to fall on the floor. They all laughed at that.

John got up rubbing his jaw. "Ok, so maybe I desevered that. Still hurt, though." He sat back down, sipping his vodka. "But yeah, where is everyone? I miss the bar brawls and fights. Those are always fun. Hey, Jo-" He was cut off as Bill ran back into the bar in full assaut gear. "Get your asses in gear, the embassy just got taken over. The fuckin' embassy! Hurry the hell up!"

She looked at the strange person who had stumbled into her bar. "Here take this..." Anara took out a small plant and placed one of the leaves in a glass. She poored some whiskey into the glass and slid it over to Kat. "Cures all sorts of headaches, stomach aches, back aches...you name it." She smiled as she put the plant away under the bar. "My name is Anara Zuun, this heres my bar. You don't look so good mister, we got rooms upstairs if your fixing to stay somewhere tonight." Anara hated when her bar was empty, and hated it even more when the upstairs inn was empty, it made her feel lonely and uncomfortable. She examined the cat-like features of the stranger, he had a mystical aura to him. Anara could sense these things sometimes, then again...she could sense a lot of things when she was drunk.
The wind was drifting in through the open door, causing Anara's long blond hair to blow in her face. She brushed the loose strands from her face and sighed deeply.

John quickly threw another $20 bill on the bar, turned, and ran back to the squad car. He jumped in the driver's seat and waited for the rest of Team 1. When they were all in, he sped off towards HQ, slamming on the brakes and throwing open the door to the car. He ran in with everyone else, pulling on his gear. He grabbed his pistol and stuck it in the holster on his left thigh and shouldered his L96, checking the sights and making sure the scope was ok before returning to the briefing room. The Team Leader told them what was going on; two dozen terrorists had taken over the embassy, and wanted a plane to go somewhere of their choosing, and for ten of their comrades released from prison. Team One would move in from the north, Team Two from the east, Team Four from the south. John would be watching the west. He got in the back of the van with Team One, banging on the side of the van, signaling the driver to step on it. "Ok, this place has eight stories. We know hostages are in this room, this room, and this room. You're going to go into this room..." He told them the plan. When they arrived at their destination, he ran into a nearby ten story bank. He went up to the ninth story, pulled open a window, and set up his gear. John watched the roof, noting four terrorists, one in each corner of the square building. He started feeding intelligence to command.

Kat accepted the drink holding it in his paw like hands then watched the soldiers leave while sipping it slowly. After he took two sips he stretched out his arms again this action caused his cowel to slide back and reveal his cat like ears and face. He quickly pulled it up again and then apologized. "As you could probably guess I'm a Neko, I'll leave if you don't want my kind around" He said gently as he pulled out his wallet, which remarkably hadn't been stolen from him and pulled out a $50 note. He stood slowly and prepared to walk out when he felt a stabbing pain in his chest. He grabbed at the right side of his chest in pain as he dropped to his knees. He doubled over panting as the pain began to fill his whole body, He didn't know what was happening, all he knew is that he felt pain.

.... Suddenly all was black


(OOC: Sorry about the short post, I'll make up for it)

Anara gasped as the Neko fell to the ground. "Oh dear!." She ran to the Neko's side and placed a calm hand on the side of his face. "Can you hear me sir? Please don't die in my bar!" Anara looked around the room in terror. She stood up panting. "What do I do...what do I do....????" She felt light headed and then fainted, falling face to face with the Neko. She had strange visions, all of them involving the Neko. Seeing his eyes in the blackness, feeling a calm sensation looking into them...

OOC: Plotiness??? ^.^

As he lay there on the ground unconscious his breathing steady he fought a battle with in himself to hold onto the memories he had. While he was knocked out in the alley he had been injected with a very rare drug, the drug was only known as adetite it has little to no effect on humans, however when injected to a Neko, or Kitsune their strength is raised exponentially, however the draw back is that their memories are erased, making it easier to convince them to work for the person who administered the drug to them. However something happened after they administered the drug to Kat, he had to be abandoned and now he lay unconscious on the floor of a bar while his body fights to retain the information in his mind and his muscles super charge themselves.

He could feel something lying on his chest yet he found himself unable to move, and he wasn’t entirely sure that he wanted to move the weight. It seemed comforting more then it was uncomfortable. As he lay their his mind losing control over the memories as they were sealed away the only thing he could remember was the bar maid, something about her, her face stayed crystal clear in his memories. His one link to the past, and so he slept. While he slept he by instinct curled an arm around the girl who was now unconscious on top of him.

<Meanwhile at the Embassy>

One of the terrorists that were on the lower floors smiled to himself knowing that soon the army boys would arrive. He had set this whole plan up for his lord and now it was coming to fruition. He had disguised himself as a hostage and then had his team treat him like one. He would infiltrate the countries security systems and then it would fall to his home and country.
