Personality, Biography, and History

Personality

Reserved/Suspicious | Brooding | Deep Thinker | Selfish | Diligent | Doubtful |

Reserved/Suspicious:
"I don't know you..."
Disliking attention, he usually does little to draw said attention to himself. He's ok with two or three, but more than that and he seems to fade into the background of silence. He also prefers his solitude, save for the few he might call friend. This also means if you're new to the group, he will probably have reservations before trusting, but he isn't shy.

Brooding:
"Well...I'll just sit over here out of the way then."
If something is bothering him, he tends to recluse himself, hiding away from friends to think. He tends to think too much about some things, almost to the point of being unhealthy. This is especially true when times are tough.
Deep thinker:
"Perhaps because of your hight."
Even if he doesn't always voice his thoughts, he's always got something on his mind. From why the rivers only go down hill, to why do spiders look the way they do, he can reason out most things to himself. This also tends to help him when planning for things, as he tries to understand his goal before going for it.
Selfish:
"I do beleive that belongs to me."
He's often not too giving when it comes to his belongings or food. Especially his food. If he really has to give it up, or someone he respects asks it of him, he'll give in, but otherwise, what's his is his and not yours. He also tends to put his own needs and wants first before others unless it is life or death.

Diligent/Observant:
"Alright, let's try that again."
As a student, he always tries to remember everything. If he's asked to do something he usually gets it done by the time he needs to, even if it's not quite done the way it should have been. He pays attention to his surroundings more than it looks like he does.

Doubtful:
"I doubt that..."
He has a strong sense of failure and often doubts his actions before taking them. His self confidence is pretty low most of the time, so he doesn't try as hard as he should. He thinks there may not be much point to it if he does. This also makes him slow to trust others, even if he tolorates their presance.

Character Developments and challenges:

Erythros has weak lungs due to irresponsible breeding. His endurance is shot as a result. If he has to do anything too hard, he looses his breath and has to stop for a while, until he's recovered enough to start again. He can't run long distance, or carry much of a load. This makes fighting a challenge too, as he can't endure drawn out fights. If forced to keep going, he'll eventually black out.

*He's still got weak lungs, and runs out of steam quickly, but his recovery time has gotten shorter and shorter through riggerous training. He still can't do much in the long haul.

*Can't swim.

**Has developed an even greater dislike for hunters from the raid on Stone Empire's camp which resulted in the captures of his two best friends, Narreth, and Sia.

Likes: Soft things, flirting, hunting, play fighting.
Dislikes: getting wet, cold! Being the center of attention. Criticism. Strenuous activity.

Description: Reddish colored cheetah with cream undertones. lanky build and reserved disposition.
Accessories/Gear:
He wears a breast plate that slides over his head and buckles around his back. A matching saddle of hardened leather on a shaped wooden base can be attached via ties threaded through some reinforced holes in both the saddle and breastplate. The saddle must be removed first to access the buckle to remove the breast plate. If absolutely necessary, he can slide out of his turtle like armor backwards and make a run for it.
Background:
*Pre-Empires-
He was born to his red king cheetah mother in the home of her master. He grew up with two siblings, and his watchful father, an albino with violet eyes. They had originally been breed for their unique coats, but as the cubs grew stronger and bigger, the master instructed that they be trained to fight. After being separated from his family and locked in a cage, only his father came to see him. They were not pleasant visits either, for his father trained him fiercely how to fight, for he didn't want to see his son killed in the rings.

Erythros was owned by a rich merchant who inherited his wealth. The man made a bet with a guard after seeing his cat in action during a ring fight, and lost the bet. The bet entailed that if the guardsman's cat won the fight without killing him, that he would win a sum of money and the cheetah. If the cheetah was killed or if the guardsman's cat lost, he would owe the merchant money. The guardsman's cat managed to beat the cheetah without killing him, and so won her master money and the cat. After the fight, Erythros's new owner took care of his wounds, carrying him home, and gave him food. When he had recovered enough, his new owner started a rigorous training schedule. He was properly introduced to his master's other cat, Emerald.

It wasn't long before he tired of this training and took advantage of his master's trust, fleeing in the night after slipping his rope.

*Post-Empires-Apprenticeship-

Erythros has spent over a year with the cats of Stone Empire, and had been given a mentor not long after he joined. The caracal, Arisha, was to teach him how to fight and hunt properly. Though, she was his mentor, she didn't train with him much. For the first few moons, the cheetah was content to just lay about camp and rest, avoiding the majority of work in complacency. A few of the other gladiators would see him on his own and take him out into the territory to train or hunt on occasion, but for the most part, he learned on his own, practicing what few moves he did know until he had them down pat.

Then he met Narreth, an apprentice of his own age who was in a similar boat. The tiger's mentor was much of the same mind as Erythros' mentor, leaving her apprentice to just do as he pleased with little guidence. The cheetah and tiger made a good pair, becoming fast firends. Now they both had someone to practice with in each other. Both of their experiance's improved, and they got better at what they trained to develop. Sia became a friend not long after, and also worked to teach the student cheetah how to better do battle. Rith learned his way around the territory better than most, often opting to still go on solo hunts. He has become an exelent hunter, and as such, knows much about the prey in their empire's territory.

Moons passed, and he grew, loosing his cubhood mane until only a little of it remained between his shoulders, and his spots reduced and faded. He had grown stronger than before, and had gained a good bit of hight, but still struggled with his lungs, and could not train for as long as his companions. Hunters came and attacked the place he had come to call home, and captured his two friends and several others. In these days of confusion, the empire was scattered. Rith had gathered with the largest group to come together, the mothers, cubs, and the healer, and injured cats they could find gathered at the coast. The cheetah was not badly injured in the battle, and as such, dedicated his time to gathering as much food as he could find, supplies for Seeley, the empire's healer, and gathering together any cats he could find from his empire back to the coastal camp.

Narreth-
[entry 1: ]
"He's alright I guess. Clutsy."

[entry 2: ]
"Finally, someone I can train with! I was getting sick of just laying about camp all day with nothing to do. Now the two of us train each other, since our mentors don't seem so keen on teaching us anything. Guy's a goof, but he has a good heart. Not much fazes him. "

[entry 3: ]
"Narwhale's my best friend. He and I train together since our mentors don't want too, and hunt together. We've even managed to bring down a boar. I'm proud to call him a comrade."

[entry 4: ]
"He's been captured by the enemy but with his luck he should be home in no time. That or I'm going to have to do something foolhardy for once."

Sia-
[entry 1: ]
"A gladiator to teach about hunting. She promised to teach me to fight in exchange for the lessons, so I call it a fair trade. Friendly enough."

[entry 2: ]
"She's kind enough to listen when I decided to open up a bit. Training is going well, and she's also good fun."

[entry 3: ]
"Sia has become a good and close friend to me. She was there after Narreth got himself captured and gave me the news herself. I respect her for being able to do that, especially since she blamed herself. It was really his fault not hers..."

[entry 4: ]
"Aaaand she got caught too. Just when we thought it was safe to split up to hunt. I never should have let her go off on her own like that. Now what do I do?"

Alijah-
[entry 1: ]
"She's ok for a cub. A little too compliant though. Odd."

Vincent-
[entry 1: ]
"A gladiator I dislike having on our team. But it's better he's our ally than our enemy. Not the most friendly sort."

[entry 2: :bullered: ]
"That son of a dog! He betrayed my best friend to the hunters. It will take some great deed to get any trust for him to return. I veiw him a traitor."

Theia-
[entry 1: ]
"A decent enough leader as any. At least she doesn't seem all that upset that Narreth and I wander off on our own."

Mithras-
[entry 1: ]
"Found her wandering around near Fire Empire's boundary not far from the coast. We went for a gull hunt, but that didn't go very well..."

Outside of Stone Empire

Emerald-
[entry 1: ]
"My first actual mentor was a hunter called Emerald, for her eyes. She didn't talk to me much, and was a harsh teacher. Sad she's our enemy. Seems like an able cat. She did beat my tail in the rings to win me for her master though. Can't say I'd welcome her if she came."

Rp Example:

Erythros had been wandering for most of the night. The rain had held off, and he could see the beginning of the day just coming up under the edges of the overhanging clouds.

- Now you've gone and done it, Rith.- he thought, stepping on a dew ridden patch of grass. - You've really done it now. No home to go to, and I can't just go back.

He glanced again at the silhouette of the city before continuing along his path. He'd never been able to go so far. Frankly he'd never known a world outside of the city. His masters had both kept him inside the walls his short life. Even if his second master didn't cage him, he wasn't about to go back and be beaten for running away. His first master had done that many times when he wandered as a smaller cub. Erythros doubted that his second master's cat would be pleased to find him crawling back either. She'd been the type to not tolerant those she saw as weak, not even cubs.

Emerald had been a harsh teacher.

When he fell from so much training, the older soldier would make him get up and keep on going...until he couldn't anymore. Then he'd wake up tied to his post, where his master had put him after the shecat had finished with him. He could say he didn't miss her. He looked again at the hills he'd been wandering and saw before him an open landscape. A river cut its way around a shallow stony bank, and trees ringed the other side. Trees. A place to hide, to sleep. Where food might hide....

Food? How the heck was he supposed to find food out here?
