His eyes are a soft, muted baby blue, obscured by a thick film of dense fog. Even in direct sunlight, his pupils remain dilated, round inky discs, that only heighten his goofy expressions, fixing a permanent look of kit-like enthralment and naivety to his face, a guise that tends to be greatly deceiving. Protruding from his muzzle and above his eyes are magnificent sets of whiskers that reach out sillily from his spotty face. They aren’t fine or wispy, but strong, thick tendrils of keratin that respond to his sensory needs, moving forwards and fanning out at his leisure. He is a little feline with round, large ears that, similarly to his paws, appear too big for his head, as if they were designed for a cat of bigger bulk. But Otterchase makes great use of them. They’re intensely emotive, almost never keeping still, swivelling this way and that, even arbitrarily, alive as though they have pursuits of their own. ------------------ PERSONALITY* ------------------ Otterchase is an affectionate little oddball with a lot of love in his heart, but if you ever find yourself on his bad side, you’re in for a whole world of trouble. • Has a feisty spirit and an appetite for mischief. • Hot-headed and far too stubborn for his own good. • Absurdly childish in every sense of the word, seemingly always boasting a drive for play rather than work, fooling around like an exuberant kitten. • He never seems to take his responsibilities as leader awfully seriously...at all • He can be disturbingly aggressive and violent when provoked. • Isn’t afraid to state things as they are and will gladly tell you to with conviction to stick it where the sun doesn’t shine. • Alarmingly clingy to those he’s close to, following them around like their spotty shadow, sticking his nose into their business. • He’s a big purrer, and a needy little thing at heart, liking cats to hold him close. • Doesn’t know personal space and will gladly clamber all over you to reach his favourite fish. • Whiny and melodramatic and will try and get what he wants with shiny kitten eyes. • Rather emotionally stunted - nothing is ever his fault, everything is almost always about him, and his choice reaction when unpleased is either a tantrum or the silent treatment. • Ill-mannered...hurdling into conversations without invitation, playing with his food, and licking himself where and when it really isn’t appropriate. • All show and no go (his ego is massive, but easily bruised) • Always craving attention and affirmations for his many talents, seamlessly exaggerating stories to gain praise or a fond lick on the forehead. *A detailed description of his personality can be found as a sticky note inside the project (pls read it this is VERY abbreviated) ----- KIN ----- • Mother: Gingerwish (✝) • Farther: Falconblaze (✝) • Littermates: Hawkcrest, Glaciertrail (✝), Applekit (✝) • Adopted sister: Dewumbra (✝) • Platonic partner: Thrasherquell • Daughters: Scampermizzle (✝), Skiplodingpaw (✝), Solsticeserein • Sons: Spiderpaw (✝), Solacepaw (✝), Sonderreign (✝) -------------------- CLOSE FRIENDS -------------------- Cinnamondust* (✝), Nettlehaze**, Ripplewatcher (✝), Flarebounce (✝), Breamlily*** (✝), Greycloud** (✝), Mousefluff*** (✝), Niledew*** (✝), Creamstar (✝), Woollymeadow (✝), Blazingstar (✝), Driftspirit (✝), Blastblizzard, Diamond (✝), Clearlight (✝), Monarchflutter, Daleallure * Otto's mentor and mother figure ** Nettlehaze = Otto's great uncle, Greycloud = Uncle *** Otterstar was raised with these cats Mentor: Cinnamondust (✝) Apprentice(s): Driftspirit (✝), Paradisepaw ╭───────────────────────╮ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀CREDITS ╰───────────────────────╯ Designer(s): (original), , Song: Forget You, CeeLo Green
