Oh my gosh these designs are amazing I CANNOT for the life of me make a good realistic cat design! I saw this gorg and just had to enter! I'm overall pretty proud of this. (The bird is supposed to be a mountain bluebird btw) Bio Name: Corrin Pronouns: (Demigirl!) She/her Sexuality: Lesbian Age: Young adult-ish Hobbies/Interests: Hunting, rock climbing, arguing Backstory: Corrin lived in a small village up in the mountains. Because of that, the village was very reclusive and didn't like interacting with people outside their tribe. They also weren't very accepting of change, because they had such a small population and were mainly focused on increasing that. Corrin was always rather rebellious and different. She made snappy and sarcastic comments and often disobeyed both her parents and her village leaders. Furthermore, she wasn't interested in any of the boys that her parents suggested for her. Because of this, people stayed away from her. This caused her to become even colder than before, and she spent lots of time alone. Once Corrin grew older, the threats of banishment began. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, but it was for two reasons. Although spring and summer in the mountains were gorgeous, the winters were harsh and frigid. Banishment always took place during the winter, meaning Corrin would likely die. Secondly, Corrin was taught that there was nothing beyond the mountains except barren land and vicious rogues, so she didn't want to go beyond the mountains. The village sat above the clouds in elevation, so Corrin could never see the base of the mountain to disprove this theory. She was suddenly desperate to stay in the village, despite how much she despised it. She needed to prove herself useful somehow, so she began practicing hunting more than usual. She also had already been skilled at scaling cliff faces because she spent so much time alone exploring. After months of hard work, she began to be valued for being able to catch rare and/or difficult prey quickly and easily. People now had grudging respect for her, as long as she could hunt. One day, Corrin was hunting as usual, and she was pursuing a kestrel. The bird was gliding between two different cliff faces with a long drop below. Corrin had a lot of experience hunting, so she didn't fear falling. However, as she leapt in the air towards it, the bird swiped a talon, carving a gash in her face. This threw her off balance, and she tumbled through the air. Fortunately, being a cat, she was able to right herself through the pain. Unfortunately, she was close to one of the cliff faces and crashed and rolled down the side several times before landing on the ground. Corrin could hear bones in her legs and her ribs crack, and yowled in agony for a few seconds before passing out. She was surprised when she awoke, as she had expected to be de. She tried to move, but she was covered in bandages and casts. "Oh good, you're awake," a smooth and cool voice rang through the room. Corrin tried to move her head, but she was too weak. She heard clicking footsteps on the floor, getting louder. From the corner of her eye, she saw piercing blue eyes and gleaming horns. "It's one of the savages from the Belowlands," Corrin thought frantically. "They've found me. It's over." I'll finish her backstory in my second entry this is getting kinda long lol Nooooo I would NEVER pause the backstory in a suspenseful moment on PURPOSE! WHO, ME?!?!?!?!?
