Character Information
Canon? Nope.
Character Name: Firae Tetsuya
Gender: Female
Age: Thirty-two
Species/Breed: Jaguar
Current Occupation: Assassin for hire
Personality: Unnervingly cunning, Firae is known for her stealth and precision. She has a short temper and won't hesitate to attack when it flares; she chooses to act first, think later. Although she is physically attractive, the idea of using seduction as a weapon disgusts her. She is outwardly cold and unfeeling and rarely regrets anything. Once she has made a decision, she does not look back. She is notorious for her quick-thinking under pressure and often executes extraordinary feats with little to none prior preparation.
Appearance: Firae at first appears to be all limbs; her form is constructed mostly of her lengthy arms, legs and tail. Her pelt is a brilliant shade of gold, while the entire front of her torso is white. Ebony spots cover the gold parts of her body but not the white. Her eyes are narrow, almond-shaped and slanted, dyed a predatory shade of emerald with gold feathering around the irises. Her hair is long and jet-black with a single side bang crossing across her face to the right. She often keeps it pulled back in a ponytail. She speaks with a bit of an accent, though her tone is rich and sure.
As a jungle cat, she despises dressing in layers, often out-right refusing to wear a coat even in the most freezing of temperatures. If absolutely necessary, she will wear a sweeping scarlet velvet cloak and a matching hat, not just to preserve her body heat but to keep her identity a secret, as is required in her profession. She often wears tight clothing, allowing her full mobility. She dons shades of black and khaki most often, and absolutely always has her prized possession with her: a high-tech bow, as well as more than a few poison-tipped arrows. This is her weapon of choice, as well as a short dagger that is hidden in her clothes at all times.
Background: Firae was not born in St. Lucent. She was born on a steamy island off in the middle of nowhere known as Kacashea. She was born into a tribe of jaguars and was the cheftain's daughter. As was the tradition of her tribe, she was raised to be a warrioress and to think with a predator's mind. At a very young age, she began training in the art of Syua, the battle style used by most Kacasheans. She learned to run faster than the wind, to perceive the world with different eyes. She was the pride of her tribe and learned very quickly.
When Firae was eighteen, her tribe was attacked by enemy raiders from a more advanced civilization far away. The Kacasheans fought bravely to protect their homeland, but they were no match against the futuristic weapons of the invaders. Those that were not killed in battle were later lined up and slaughtered, one by one. Firae, who had been ordered to escape to a cave behind the tribe's sacred waterfall, watched from a distance as her life fell apart.
Steaming with rage, the young warrioress stowed away upon the invader's vessel. She waited until they set sail once more and were in the middle of the ocean before launching her attack. The drunken sailors were no match for Firae; she fought with the rage and vengeance of hellfire and brimstone. The ship was later found by another trade vessel, who found the jaguar huddled in the hold. She told them with pitiful eyes that they had been raided by pirates and the crew had been killed. They took pity on the pretty young lass and offered her passage to their destination. She agreed.
From then on, Firae jumped from place to place in an attempt to make end's meet. She eventually ended up in St. Lucent and, after multiple scurmishes with the law inforcement, joined Adeline's efforts against the Angels. Though she refuses to take orders from the tigress (she actually has a deep loathing for Adeline, reasons unknown as of right now), the symbol of the rebellion is imprinted on the back of her neck.
Password? Danger.
