Him
Species: Black cat (Winged)
Age: 1 year
Gender: Male
Description
Smaller than your average 1-year-old cat, he has a matted black coat, white whiskers, wide yellow eyes, and a broad, sweeping tail. His wings, tucked away on his back, are much the same as his coat. His build is lean and slight, perfect for him to dodge and run away from any predators, and his gait speaks of a cat who knows how to hunt his own food.
Personality
He grew up in a cat colony - with this background, he recognises cats as possible allies, but everything else as food or danger. He is more likely to run away or hide than to stand his ground. He doesn't want to fight. He's a cat who just wants to be safe and happy with a full belly.
Species Lore
In a time lost in history, cats were once said to have wings. It was an extension of their power, a physical manifestation of their superior blood – magic. They used to soar in the skies, hunting birds as they would mice, and using their magic to suit each their own needs. Their individual abilities ranged from the powerful, such as creating typhoons on a whim with their wings, to the whimsical, such as shedding their coat to grow an entirely different fur pattern. Magic for each cat can be different in subtle and outrageous ways and the cats have never questioned the what or how behind their blood.
These cats often lived together in colonies. However, they rarely flew together - their hunts were separate, each individual hunting for itself. Females would hunt extra prey to bring back to the colony for the kits.
With the ability to fly, these cats upped their mating game. Males were forced to chase after the females in-flight. They depended on the grace, speed, or style of their flight patterns to impress the females and once successful, the females would allow themselves to be caught for mating. If males caught females before successfully impressing them, the females would react aggressively and the chase would either end in a fight or the females touching down and running away from the males on the ground - this signals the definite end of the mating attempt.
