Mistress Cat
-
Your gracious host:
A comely woman of approximately five and a half feet, often found draped languidly over comfortable furniture or walking with a proud stride and an arrogant lift of her chin. Human by all accounts, her smooth copper-gold skin, dark hair and enchanting red-brown eyes invoke the image of the desert at sunset. Her snake-like movement: a dancer's poise that carries the allure of the far east-coast, and a promise of trouble. The voice that rolls off her gilded tongue is smooth and rich, and brings with it the dialect of one who has come a long way from home. Surprisingly soft-spoken, this woman does not so much speak as she does purr.
Her outfit is highly revealing; an almost sheer ensemble of red and gold silks that show a great deal more skin than they hide; a look far better suited for a consort or courtesan than a dignified lady. The exquisitely embroidered fabric is largely embellished and almost entirely saturated with polished gemstones, as if the aim of it all were simply to drape the woman in jewels and gold.
Her otherwise bared body is statuesque; chiseled, strong and lean, and if inclined to action her toned muscles and fast footwork speak of a woman well trained to defend herself. However, her elegant flair and womanly curves may impart the notion that she may perhaps prefer the role of lover over fighter. Her close-lipped smile is calculating, disarming and ambiguous at best, and drips with both a chilling venom and in the same instance, a beckoning invite. She looks like she might bite, but you have a feeling you might enjoy it all the same.
To those that look beyond her wiles, there are odd things about Cathziel; she goes unshod and yet her feet remain unnaturally clean and with perfectly manicured toes. The magic rings she wears on each middle finger look incredibly costly, and the necklace that holds the enormous ruby to her throat seems to have no easy means of removal. She carries with her at times a simple dark-wood quarterstaff, and in passing leaves behind a scent laced with subtle notes of incense, vanilla, amber and brimstone.
