Name: Leon “Leo” Timyon
Race: Nekomata
Gender: Male
Age: Closer to 30, though much younger than he appears
Height: Medium while slouched, much taller with good posture
Weight: Well Built, somewhat thin in appearance
Hair Color: White, occasionally confused for very light blue.
Eye Color: Blue
Remarkable Things of Note: Hero Status in Raiaera for Saving the capital from an Undead Plague in Adventurers' Crown, Well-known in Scara Brae for the Magus Cup, Some fame in Corone for the Furry Protectorate and especially around Concordia. He has achieved something closer to hero status in Underwood. Grandmaster of the Dajas Pagoda.

History:

Leon’s history before coming to the mainland of Althanas was mostly inconsequential, following his family’s footsteps in adventuring before sttling down.

Leon has now made and met a few close friends such as Rainee and a few others, as well as started up the group known as the Furry Protectorate. He also decided to participate in the Magus, which he is currently fighting in. The cat boy is still unsure of his future, and beginning to slow down his mad rush to get to whatever he needs to go to next.

More adventures have happened to the cat boy, enough to make some other people jealous. – He fought in the Theater of War once, before losing interest in it for the time being. His battle was against the female vampire Sivienna, whom he also tore her neck open, accidentally swallowing some of her flesh. Not enough, but he has changed slightly. Though not many could notice it. He fought against Joshua in the Magus, and ended up sacrificing himself a second time to save the kitsune from death. His name is recognizable, though not exactly household. Though, this has lately only influenced his standing in the Scara Brae and Raiaera. Time has greatly deteriorated this reputation, and whatever people knew of him has likely been twisted into folklore or myth.

Also something important to be of note would be the boy’s budding romance with the kitsune Doji Kadenza, though it was cut cruelly short as authorities for a crime neither of them committed split them apart. Also as something to be noted, He had found his love hurt in the Lissin School of Magic, and found out that she was pregnant with his child. This was dealt with as best he could, but it also, through a series of events left him without Kit and his child. Since then he has given thought to being a father and actually looks fondly towards it.

The cat boy’s adventures have been just as interesting as the last ones, broadening the range. Later, he joined up in the Adventurers Crown, hurting himself badly in the first round while saving a teammates life and going to the hospital. After a series of strange occurrences, he had saved Raiaera along with the rest of his group Wicked Things. He became a Hero of Raiaera, along with his teammates as they saved the country’s capital from being overrun by undead. Along with that he’s also changed somewhat, becoming a bit more experienced and wary of betrayal.

Nearly a year later, he fought against another man whom he does not remember the name of, but was Kit’s new “boyfriend.” Hearing that his daughter, barely a month or so old, was changed somehow, Leon has decided to seek her out once again to see them after a long time. The Furry Protectorate has been given over to a new leader, one that Leon had picked earlier, leaving him free to roam without worry for them. In addition, he has also participated in two more tournaments, but in both nothing of importance had happened, and are merely just tallies on his history. One thing of note is that Leon is getting a better understanding of his own mind and body, and he is beginning to get worried somewhat about this.

Leon has begun to travel a lot more then he used to, preferring to explore lands, fields and mountains then cities. Despite this, he has been seen often enough in cities. On one occasion he was attacked by a strange drow woman in Underwood, and another he had a small misadventure. He ended up killing the vampire known as Kedx during his rampage in Underwood, and from that met the girl known as Morrigan. He has decided to continue living his life about the same, without much change to it, though occasionally with the girl he now lives with in a tree in Concordia.

Leon has returned, though his whereabouts for the pat several years are a mystery. He has more scars, longer hair, and a small chunk of land in Salvar.

Personality Quirks
-Arrogant and sure of himself in the sense of his own considerable limits.
-Obsesses at times
-Tends to be headstrong, rushing into situations/battles/plans/knives without a second thought. However, he also tends to rush into things with more then a few cards he could play.
-Often has a couple tricks hidden up his sleeve in most instances, though they are generally the same no matter what situation.
-Beginning to develop a taste for treasure and jewelry.

Appearance:
Leon is almost hard to look on upon first glance. While graceful, and also good looking, there is something disconcerting upon first glance. Many pass it off to their eyes playing tricks on them, and leave it be. His arms are subtly longer than they should be. As well, they are not terribly larger, but are much more muscled now, and his hands at the end are closer to paws. He only has three thick fingers and thumb at the end of each hand. He wears a hard green ring on his hand. His legs are the same, and end with four thick toes on each paw. One important note is the retractable claws where ordinary humans have finger and toenails.

Two fuzzy white ears stick out the side of his head, somewhat above the place where a normal ear would be. As well, he is somewhat more feline in face, though hardly enough to truly warrant an inspection. When he smiles (which is often) it is almost as if there are too many teeth, or that they are larger and pointier than they should be. They are. Despite, there is a young charm to his face, and could pass as attractive to those with a certain taste.

His two tails are considerably longer as well, trailing along the ground most of the time. They are semi-prehensile, and can contact (but not grasp and lift) objects with it. There are a lot of old scars that litter his chest, arms and legs. He often wears loose clothes, wider pants and his armored jacket and shirt. His fur is patterned on his bare, muscular chest. He doesn't wear shoes, the thick pads of his feet providing more than enough padding.

Weapons

Super Yarn Ball: This is a special magic Yarn ball that Leo got from a friend. There are special qualities to this little ball of yarn though, some that can make it a formidable weapon in the right hands. For this is no ordinary yarn, for its fibers are as hard as copper. Leo has gotten over this, for it is an exceptionally good-looking ball of yarn. It’s dark blue; almost so much that it appears to be black. Its touch, while hard, is still soft and warm. Also, Leo can make the yarn into something of a bandage if truly needed, although it doesn’t do much to stop blood flow. Can’t be used for what yarn is really meant for though. It is roughly 100 feet when completely un-furled. Strength of Delyn, actual material unknown.

“Stealth” yarn- Magic yarn ball that is able to change to basically any color at the owner’s mental command, however, it cannot change colors quickly, and is easily seen when not agianst something. 50 yards long, considered to be the same as the Super Yarn Ball.

Yo-Yo: A blunt yo-yo that has a special string attached to it. That being that the strong has the resistance strength of iron. The actual yo-yo itself though is made of steel, and the string is roughly 4 feet long.

Spear: Made of Delyn and Livol, and used to slay a dragon.

Damascas Jian - A Red blade that weighs 2 lbs. Enchanted, sword does indeed feel like 20 lbs to any who hold it, but to those being struck by it, it only adds an extra 5 lbs of weight to the strike

Natural Weapons
Claws = Comparative qualities to Damascas. On his hands and feet.
Teeth = Comparative qualities to Damascas, Bone in reality.

Armor

Collar- A simple cat collar with a bell. Currently made of Leather and Damascus and dwarvern make. Notably, very valuable and expensive.
Sifan Hat – A black sifan hat that can cover basically all of Leon’s hair and ears. It can be pulled down to also easily let the wearer sleep when the sun is around. Not worn that often anymore.
Jacket – His favorite jacket. This is of black material and well tailored. It is unique in that there are weightless steel plates woven into the fabric, giving it the same qualities as plate mail armor.

Items
Pack of Cards- Leo carries around these cards for when he gets bored and wants to play some games with others.
Yarn Balls (3)- Three yarn balls that Leo almost endlessly plays around with. One would wonder how he was able to stay entertained for so long with them and not get bored. Are Fire retardant. To be honest though, he doesn’t know himself. All 100 feet right now Colors= Dark Green, Crimson, and Blue
Energy Pills (7)- This is what most humans call a coffee bean. Being a cat-boy and not a full human, these have an added effect on him. What humans need to grind down and mix with water, he can just chew and get the same energy as a single cup of coffee for each pill.
Knife- Used in case so entangled in yarn there is no escape. Not sharp enough to cut through much above linen.
Ring – Diamond ring worth 350 gold.
Green Ring – A ring that fits onto his right hand. Gold, with a green inlay along the middle and unbreakable, made of adamantine.
Credit – A line of credit in the bazaar worth 2100 gold.
Pouch – A very special pouch, as this contains some of Kedx's ashes and his fangs. It's unknown what properties they have. (Nothing really, but may be used in a later thread for plot purposes.)
Dragon Meat: Nearly a dozen pounds of dragon meat. Originally close to sixty, but Leon developed a taste.
Silver Bell - Enchanted with a light spell that's good for up to 10 feet forward and to either side of dim light. Often worn around Leon’s neck, it has been subtly modified to not produce sound.
Titanium Lock: an expertly crafted lock, guaranteed to keep honest people from opening a door or chest! No guarantees for dishonest folk.


Special Traits

Name-description (where it is from)
Speed/Agility/Reflexes- Leon is known to be incredibly fast (7x a normal human), but also is able to control himself incredibly well. His spatial awareness of his own body is near perfect. ((Cat side innate))
Strength- Oddly enough Leon is able to match most peoples strength with little trouble, though upwards 300 pounds it get harder, hitting a max quickly after. However, this is only when pushed, otherwise his strikes are generally about the same as a strong man his size. Though with claws it makes little difference.((Natural))
Endurance: Leon's body, while not repelling or ignoring, is able to shrug off a surprising amount of punishment, and which curiously extends to ambient magical energies. He usually regrets it after the fact, however. ((Nekomata))
Hide of Scars- His body can repel most attacks with sharp edges. It is also shown this is slightly more effective on his furred parts. Of note it does not prevent physical trauma. Could be considered Drake scale. ((Battle Life/Nekomata))
Senses: Leon's sense of taste, smell, and sight are equal to that of a humans. His hearing is very sub-par, and his sense of touch is superb for his body. One important thing, is that he relies on all of his senses with a general amount of equality. So while blinding him would hurt him greatly, not so much as some may expect. (Unknown)
Carnivore- Leon prefers meat as opposed to anything else. Has a tough time eating greens. ((Cat side innate))
Healing- Leon heals from most wounds and bashes within a day, though it only makes a big difference when sleeping. Not useful in a single battle. ((Unknown))
Bone Strength: Leon's bones are much harder than an average humans, nearly steel in hardness. ((Unknown, suspected Nekomata))
Magical Beacon – Leon is very easy to track through magical means. This also applies to those who can sense Undead, though he will not be subject to the same things that specifically harm them. ((Nekomata))

Skills/Magic

Weapon Skill- Leo is very skilled with using his Super Yarn Ball in battle, but has no really special attacks with it. He does have some cool moves though. Leon has improved to the point where he is thinking about shifting this type to more effective and dangerous weaponsHis skills with his spear and jian are both above average. He has become much better with unarmed attacks, and can effectively fend off armed attackers even without claws and to a masterful degree. It should be note that there is no official style that Leon follows, and that whilst fighting, his body language is "gibberish."

Omniskill- Leon can use any weapon he finds somewhat effectively and with surprisingly good proficiency. For ranged weapons he has somewhat good aim. Also, it has been shown that he is able to pick up many different things, such as drawing or playing a game quickly. Mastery however is something completely different.

Yarn Ball Manipulation: Leo can control Yarn so that it can wrap around, tangle, tie knots, etc. He pretty much has full control of the Yarn as long as he is touching the strand that it’s coming from, from bandaging his own wounds to choking his opponent. Actual strength of the yarn grip depends on how strong the breaking point of the material is and how strong Leo is at the moment. He can also unravel the yarn and control each separate strand if said yarn is large enough. Though it has been seen that he cannot control it so well as the yarn moves farther away from his body. Leon can control effectively up to 3 yarn balls so long as they are within a relatively short distance from his body.

Second Thought: Leon is able to focus on more then a single task at once. In addition, things that attack the mind are much less likely to succeed, and reading his mind will often give random and nonsensical information. Also, knocking him out in much tougher then one would expect.

Basic Medical knowledge- Enough to cover up wounds and help sprains from hurting so much.

The Kitty Side-When danger arises enough, Leon submits to something called the Kitty Side at times. His agility and reflexes are enhanced (3x in addition to whatever it is at now), as well as he also uses less human words, becomes more cat-like, and acquires something of a clever brutality. He is unable to use tools while like this. A short while after the danger dies down, he will return to normal.

Dancing Flash: While not precisely a new skill, when Leon is overcome with the Kitty Side, his body language and posture greatly shifts. He becomes coiled, ready to spring at any moment, compensating for a curious side effect of his bestial nature. His claws seem to extend, cutting far beyond where they would physically end. This gives them an additional range of nearly 1.5 feet, though only in swiping motions. If carefully timed, this can be used for defensive purposes as well.

Roar: Leon’s roar is loud enough to be heard for miles. While unable to cause real harm, it’s rather intimidating, and the sheer force of the roar causes slight ripples in the air. While particularly effective at being loud, it is unlikely to affect experienced fighters or determined foes.

Lucky –Leon is slightly luckier then normal, but often not enough to change the course of anything. He would come out ahead at gambling a little more then others, but not by much.

Howdy, can you link to where you recieved all those items? (the ones not mentioned in your signiture; Super Yarn Ball for example.) You might not be able to find them all, so maybe link to the last character update at the bottom.

Were his teeth and claws purchased, or just grew harder?

Hey Hysteria!

A small collection of previous profiles, since I'm not sure where everything came from. You'll notice the most recent profile was from '07...

Level 3 (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?3551-Level-3-after-way-too-long-a-wait&highlight=)
Level 4 (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?5741-A-New-Kitty-(Level-4)&highlight=)

Teeth and claws are growing harder, though there was no change from level 4.

I can see that the yarn ball went from copper to Delyn, the cost for that would be 825gp, (Copper would cost 75, Delyn 900 = 825). I can deduct that now, and we can use this thread a proof of purchase?

The claws and teeth I'll count as an ability.

Hide of Scars, can you pick a leather strength? Drake Scale with tier 3, which is the same as Damascus. It'd be able to defend a lot of hits, but its important you don't assume all attacks bounce off.

Magic Resistance: With the growing popularity of having people immune to types of magic/attacks, general magic resistance has been cut. This could be changed with an edurance ability that allows him to continue fighting for longer that would have a similar effect, but straight up magic resistance is a no.

Other than that, everything looks good!

Sorry for the long wait!

I will go down the points!

I have egg on my face, I completely missed the yarn ball. Yes Let's deduct the gold in this thread.

I have edited the hide of scars to be drake scale instead of iron skin!

Magic Resistance has been altered to an endurance based skill! I am unsure if the wording is too strong or too weak though...

As well, I made a slight change to strength, just removing the "weak strike" part as per normal, but keeping upper limit the same.

You don't get much benifit from having a magic endurance over general endurance. It also sounds still a bit like resistance. Can you make it into a general endurance?

Edited again, apologize for the wording.

Endurance: Leon's body, while not repelling or ignoring, is able to shrug off a surprising amount of punishment, and which curiously extends to ambient magical energies. He usually regrets it after the fact, however. ((Nekomata))
