[/b][/size][/center][/u][/b][/size][/center][/u]
Appearance: African Wild Cats look extremely similar to domestic cats. The Wild Cat is a bit larger and has longer legs. Imani has a gray coat with black stripes on her legs and tail. Her tail is rather long and she has big ears, almost like a kitten. Her eyes are a startling green.
Personality:•General Persona: First and foremost, Imani is a wild animal. Instinct usually makes her decisions for her, or at least influences them. Survival is everything. When threatened she reacts in whatever way she must to get out alive. Imani still has her own personality, of course, and acts completely differently when she’s not hungry or in danger. She is good-natured and peaceful, avoiding confrontation when possible. She’s easy to get along with as long as you’re not food, and Imani will happily go out of her way to help someone who needs it. She has a playful side and enjoys joking around and playing games.
•Inner Thought Process: Imani is the type who doesn’t mind being alone but also appreciates company. On her own she spends a lot of time just thinking and daydreaming. Despite this she’s very aware of her surroundings thanks to her feline senses. There isn’t much else to her inner personality: not much is hidden; Imani is the way she seems on the surface.
•Fears: The obvious fears are death and injury (which might lead to death). Aside from that, Imani harbors a fear of her animal instinct. She’s afraid of losing control and doing something she’ll regret – like harming a friend.
•Pleasures: Running, climbing, and chasing are all fun for Imani. She’s not too different from your average kitty in this way. She’d even play with toys if given the chance.
•Quirks: She’s a talking cat.But With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility

But Your History Decides Your Version of "Responsibility"
[/b][/size][/center][/u]History: Imani was born in a litter of three kittens, herself being the only female. Her fur resembled her father’s, while her brothers took after the mother. Imani and her siblings were the first litter of their proud little family. At first they could not even see, but soon the siblings were spending their time play-fighting and exploring. Life during that time was nothing but fun and Imani carries only the fondest memories of it.
Within a few months it was already time to learn to hunt. Imani’s mother took her kittens to chase after mice; a relatively unchallenging prey. The eldest brother was the only successful kitten that day and didn’t hesitate to brag. In anger, the younger brother lashed out and the two ended up in a true fight. Imani didn’t know how to react in that situation and could only call after her siblings. In the end, the older sibling was killed over a single arrogant comment.
The next portion of Imani’s life was comparably less traumatizing. At the age of half a year it was time for Imani and her brother to find their own territories. This was a challenge in itself; the young wildcats had to travel quite far and eventually separate. Imani found a fantastic place; there was a small stream and the best hunting grounds. Before she could take possession of this territory she had to fight an old male cat. In the end, age won over experience and the previous owner scrambled away to find a new home. Imani finally felt like an adult.
Although she’d lost a brother as a kitten, separating from her family was much like losing them. Since that time she never again saw them. Imani missed her family, but she wasn’t lonely. There was always something to do – hunt, explore, even protect herself from other cats. Imani lives a content life.
