CATALYX | ||||||||
| ||||||||
APPEARANCE HEIGHT: Fifteen inches WEIGHT: Twenty-five pounds VOICE OVER: Greg Baldwin (Iroh from Avatar: The Last Airbender) ONE LINE DESCRIPTION: An aging red fox with more grey fur than bright orange nowadays Catalyx was once a sizable red fox who has now started to lose some of his height and weight to old age. He never thought he would make it this far for foxes usually do not have long in this realm compared to other animals. The old storyteller has started to lose muscle mass which has made him weaker and unable to move as gracefully as he once did. Even his once bright and vibrant orange fur has started to lose its luster and vibrancy. Catalyx still maintains his coat with impeccable detail, after all, he is a proud fox still. He does walk with a slight limp from an old injury to his left front paw that stiffens up on him whenever the weather becomes cold or rainy. He will also never admit it to anyone, but his sharp hearing is just now starting to fade. PERSONALITY It should come as no surprise that a sly and cunning red fox has superb verbal skills, to the point where when one listens to one of Catalyx’s stories, one cannot help but become transfixed, waiting to see what will happen next. Catalyx lives for his stories, he always has, even when he was much younger. He knows the importance of storytelling and respects the verbal history that is kept down the line of ones such as himself. His words can fluctuate nicely with the tone of each story, keeping his audience mesmerized. Some of his tales have been told so often that most of the youngsters in Fengari can recite them by heart themselves, while others have only been told once or twice. He happily takes requests and can spin a tale on the fly. Though Catalyx appears to be an old storyteller and that is the position he has held since being graciously accepted into Fengari, he has been so much more. It is said that if one really wants to know what Catalyx was like before coming to Fengari, then one must listen closely to those rare stories that are seldom spoken. Catalyx certainly has many secrets and knows how to keep them. There is usually a glimmer of intelligence and awareness so strong that others who happen to see it find themselves wondering what Catalyx did in his younger years. Some even happen to see a faint hint of the younger version of Catalyx every so often and find themselves moving away from the red fox without understanding why. Catalyx is not only all about stories though, he knows when to be silent and when to offer advice in order to help guide those who may be older than him in years, yes, but do not have the same insight as he does. He is usually found to be compassionate, kind, and gentle. No one in Fengari has ever seen him angry and most (not all) have not only accepted him but come to enjoy having him around. LIKES:

Cato was one of the best spies that Catalyx’s homeland had ever seen. Catalyx’s father was cunning, powerful, and flexible enough to become well known in the black markets and the dark places where most do not even wish to know about. He was ruthless and showed no mercy, played both sides to his own advantage, and loved every second of it. The only time Cato ever stopped spy work was when he met his mate, Agentia. She was lovely and though Cato tried to love her, he loved spy work more. As soon as Catalyx was born, Cato was off again and only ever came back to force his mate. When Magnus was born a couple of failed litters later, Cato had decided that Catalyx was old enough to start learning the family trade. Catalyx was a natural spy and took to the work so fast that there were whispers that he was better than Cato was at that age. Catalyx loved the work too, it was in his blood. He also took the extra step that his father never did and learned to fight and kill effectively and efficiently. It did not take long for Magnus to follow in their pawsteps. Magnus was a decent spy but an even better fighter and there were rumors that he had become an assassin. By that time, Catalyx was already traveling far and wide for work, having left his mother months ago. After a year of spy work, news reached Catalyx that his father had been killed and his mother was on her sickbed with only days left. The news shook him enough to slow down the spy work long enough for the fox to find a beautiful mate of his own, Cassia. She became his entire world and unlike his father, Catalyx loved her more than any spy work. The fox stopped working in order to help raise his three children. The five of them were happy. Until his past caught up to him. It did not take long before she was murdered right before his very eyes. He was knocked out and dragged away before the fox had any time to defend his children. Catalyx was kept prisoner for six months before he managed to escape. Catalyx spent the rest of his youth and middle-aged years tracking down those who had murdered his entire family. In that time, he also tracked down his brother and found that Magnus too had sired children. But his brother was so consumed with hate (that Catalyx did not understand), that the fox smuggled his niece and nephew/niece away and never looked back. It took three months to find Fengari and Catalyx was starting to slow down by that point. Without revealing his own background, he pleaded with Queen Anandi to let the three of them live in Fengari. After a trial period, the three were officially accepted. Now, Catalyx is enjoying his life of peace for now. OOC OTHER CHARACTERS: N/A so far PURCHASED ITEMS: None for Catalyx.
