APPEARANCE

Shoulder height: 1,68 m
Physical description:
Body: Quite tall and muscular although his skeleton is average in heaviness. Catlike, slightly curved backline and straight, muscular legs. His frontlegs are placed quite far forwards, similar to his hindlegs which gives him a bit of a stretched stance. Average paw size and rather long tail that he wears in a straight line.Head: his head appears heavy but that is mostly fur; although he does have heavy jaw muscles. Triangular muzzle that follow the shape of his head, towards his triangular ears. Ears tilt slightly forward Curved slightly roman profile with a little dip in the middle. Rather round, yet slightly angular eyes. Colour is pale green.
Fur and coat colour: deep Havana brown like oriental cats can be. Slightly lighter hair tips in his mane and fur extensions. He has a golden sheen and faint broken striped tabby markings that are visible in bright sunlight. Smooth coat but with quite dense mane and fur extensions on his belly and flank-skin. Long ridge of hair over the middle of his neck; the rest of his mane is rather short.
Gait: rather stalking and heavy. Quite tiger like.

Jewelry & accessories: Baphomet necklace.

PERSONALITY & CHARACTER

Personality and mannerisms:He’s quiet and rather shy and doesn’t like to be in the center of attention. He avoids (social) commotion and is a little sensitive and insecure, especially when he was younger. As an adult, he hides this rather well by just staying silent and in the background. He’s not very dominant but doesn’t let other’s run over him either. Then he just goes away. He’s not fearful but has to the desire the flee in stressful situations and is easily spooked. He’s easily intimidated despite his own impressive appearance, however when other males push him too far, he does stand his ground.

He’s quite curious by nature and (sneakily) explores the world on his own. He thrives well being solitary yet he also appreciates company of his family. He can be quite affectionate in certain situations but needs to be in the mood for that. He’s gentle on the inside but doesn’t really know how to bring that forward and therefore appears as quite cold and distant towards strangers and anybody else who are not his close friends/family.  

Is quite self-centered and places his own feelings first (typically feline), yet he’s willing to help other siderians in his father’s fighting force against humans. He’s not much of a fighter himself, yet he’s protective towards those whom he cares about. He struggled finding his place in this fighting force but does see the greater picture and the necessity of it. But by following his own code of honor and his own nature, he became a rescuer during the missions.

Type of humor: Easily intimidated by jokes and sarcasm but can like a touch of saracasm when with his friends. His uncle’s sex-jokes make him a little uncomfortable but he can sometimes appreciate them if not too much in his face.

Voice, manner of speaking: Bit of a raspy, harsh and low voice; quite similar to his father yet not as heavy. He doesn’t speak much but when he does, he tends to talk quite softly with gentle words. He rarely speaks loud, so his rather harsh voice doesn’t come forward that much.
Sexuality: heterosexual. Mostly monogamous but may have mated with other females before he found a permanent mate.
Spirituality and philosophy:
Quite grounded and connected to spirits of the land. His element would definitely be Earth. He strongly feels the spirits of plants and even the mountains, the water and the clouds as spiritually alive He is aware of his family’s history and the connection to Demons and appreciates his roots but prefers to keep his focus on the Earth rather than straying off too far into the spiritual realm. His philosophy is to never take more than you need and to respect Life and the Land. He stretches the importance to take care of oneself first, in order to help others. He thinks a lot about what it means to be Feline and how selfishness and care for fellow siderians and other Life goes together. He values balance and harmony a lot and tries to establish that in himself and his environment.
Fears:
humans and their invasions. 
Dreams:
like his father and sisters; a world without having to fight against dangerous, invading humans. He would have wanted to explore music more if he had the chance.          
Interest, hobbies, occupation:
He is quite explorative and curious (despite his shyness) and likes to see new landscapes as long as he’s given the time to process the new impressions. He also has an interest in music that is generated through ecals but doesn’t have much time to develop that interest further.

In his father’s fighting force he took the role as rescuer in the field and joins missions to carry injured siderians to safety and bring them to the healers. That really helped him find his own purpose in the Force and brought up a hidden bravery that he didn’t know existed.

Special skills: sense of honor and his physical strength make him a very good rescuer. 

STORY

Always on the move
Jay was born when his father ( Stian) had just established a fighting force against invading humans to safeguard siderians from local extinction. The group, called the Fjorland Force, was growing  and they travelled to several human settlements to attack. Given the distance of the travels, many siderians were forced to bring their cubs along to the camps and so did Jay’s parents. During the first years of his life, they regularly returned to their homelands in the Northern Fjordands (Northern Norway). Jay remembered his childhood as chaotic and rather stressful; he liked exploration but too much moving made him insecure. Yet his parents always provided him a safe place to retreat. He was closest with his mother (Vivanna) and was slightly intimidated by his father, who was often busy and stressed and therefore a little cold and distant. His one year older sister’s (Ekster) playing was also a little too rough for his taste, but he found pleasant company in his grandfather ( Morten), who was also around since Stian had gathered the Sætansen family to fight in the Force. In their grandfather’s presence, it seemed that his sister’s boldness got replaced by a quiet curiosity which brought him closer to her in those moments. When Jay was four years old, he got accompanied by another sister; Siri .

Leaving grandpaw
Jay was 6 years old when his father returned from a mission without grandfather. Morten got injured in battle but was with the healers now; his father told him and his sisters. When he was a little better, Jay and Ekster were allowed to visit him but he was never the same afterwards. Two years later he (and his mate Mara ) left the travelling Fjordland Force to rest on his home territory. Only a year after, Jay’s parents brought them to the Ancient Sætansen lands to pay a last visit to Morten who had fallen deadly ill. In the same year, Jay got another brother; Morthian . He began to realize more clearly how his life deviated from that of other cubs and how stressful it was. His two bold sisters seemed not bothered but he struggled to process the impressions and often retreated himself in silence. But his growing little brother seemed more like him and despite the age difference (8 years), he liked being with him and his mother, sheltered from the commotion of his father’s missions.

Finding his purpose
When Jay reached puberty, Morthian was old enough to follow him which gave their mother the opportunity to work more actively as a healer. Jay was still shy to make any other contacts, but he was slowly getting closer to his uncle Goran and his friend Falkner. Both were more the macho type but Jay silently enjoyed their humour. Meanwhile he began to wonder what his position was in his father’s Force. He was still a little intimidated by his father, but he encouraged him to search for his own path – be it in the Force, be it somewhere else. Jay found Goran’s rescuing work quite fascinating and he occasionally joined. He had to overcome his insecurity and shyness but quickly found his purpose in rescueing injured siderians from missions and bring them to the healers. He often worked together with his uncle and one of his first serious rescue missions (Jay was 18) was when his greatgrandfather ( Matthias) got shot outside the patrolled areas. He passed away not long after and only now, he realized how prominently present his genius greatgrandfather always had been.

A new family
Jay continued his work as rescuer he formed an excellent team with Goran. When not on a mission, he often joined Goran and his friends and silently listened to their macho sex talks. However, when he was was approached by a female himself, his shyness flared up again. He was in his early twenties when a caramel tortie lady named Layla showed interest in him. Initially he felt uneasy but she won him over and the interest became mutual. She also joined the Fjordland Force in the scouting group. When Jay was 26 years old, their first cub was born; a tabby male whom they named Steinur. Two years later, he was followed by a silver tabby sister named Saga. Jay and Layla equally shared in the parenting duty. Being a father gave his confidence a positive boost and he got more assertive in many ways. He was still rather close to his 8 years younger brother Morthian who came to the age that he began asking Jay for advice on the love-topic.

Thickening his shields
As the cubs grew up, he began bringing them along when the Fjordland Force was on a mission again. By now they had gained many members and most of the missions had been successful. They were gaining ground and humans were slowly retreating form siderian lands. Despite the death and suffering that he witnessed, he saw the greater purpose of this and that kept him motivated. However, the sudden death of his younger sister Siri and her mate have him a hard blow. He had seen many deaths during his time as rescuer, but his own sister was too close. His elder sister Ekster, was so furious that Jay worried about her being next with her uncontrolled fury. Only a year after, his father got shot and nearly bled to death. Only thanks to quick action of the healers, he survived. These events made Jay even more determined to continue his work as a rescuer and save as many siderian lives as he can. He had to harden himself and close the stress out to remain focused. Fortunatily, the Force had gained so much ground that many members could allow themselves some rest.

Fall of the General
His father continued some smaller scouting missions near their home territory in the North, to safeguard the siderian lands. Jay and Goran joined as patrols and stand-by rescuers. The scouts, led by his father were out to explore an abandoned industrial area. Stian raised the alarm over their ecal communucaties (sort of walky talkies) that there were armed humans in the area. Not long after, gunshots sounded. Worried, Jay looked at Goran who seemed still alright. An ominous silence followed and the appearance of a vanguard officer told him that something was wrong. The General had fallen. Jay’s heart sank. That was his father. He followed Goran and the officer to the place where it had happened. As the air cleared he saw the liveless body of his father, covered in blood and bullet holes. Beside him, lay his sister, bloody and motionless but still alive. The shock shut down all his feelings and he did his tasks without thinking. He helped Goran lift his father’s body on the stretcher and carried him back to the camp. Two other rescuers took his sister. Back in the camp, he began to realize what had happened, yet his feelings were locked away. A week later, when the family and the others in the Force paid their last tribute to his father, the pain reached him. He had never been close to his father, yet he had given him strength and purpose. It pained him to see how his always rocksolid uncle Goran had cracked and struggled to process the loss of his brother. Fortunatily, his sister had recovered well and the Force appointed her as the new General.

His close companion left
After the death of his father, he spend more time with his mother and youngest brother again. They were both badly affected by the loss but continued their work in the Force the way Stian would have wanted it. His elderly mother Vivanna once took his cousins Rose (Morthian’s daughter) and Tiba (Siri’s orphaned daughter) on a last long journey to her birth place in Zilval Summits (the Alps), that had just been claimed back from humans, thanks to Ekster’s efforts. A few years later, Vivanna’s health declined and she passed away as well. He had always been close to his mother and felt on his own now, despite his precious mate Layla. His own cubs were reaching adulthood and had found their place in the Force as well. Jay continued his work as rescuer together with Goran but also Goran’s age was cathing up with him. After he had taken hard blow on his armor to save Ekster, he realized that it was time to retire. The moment of saying goodbye to his uncle pained him more than he had expected. Jay had rarely worked together with anyone else than Goran and the insecurity crept up on him as he stood without field partner. He found another buddy again but badly missed his uncle. He visited him every time when he was back on the home territory and he was glad to see that Goran did well. At least someone could enjoy his well-deserved last years he thought.

A dangerous course
Jay followed his sister’s every mission but her brutal nearly reckless approach worried him. She was more fanatic and determined to kill humans than his own father had been. Many siderians in the Force pointed out that her methods were too dangerous, yet her efforts were mostly appreciated and many missions led by her were successful. However, Jay’s mate Layla was so concerned that she urged Jay to retreat from the Force, resulting in tension between the two. However, Jay was determined to go on but he understood her concern very well. When he paid a last visit to Goran and spoke about the tension in the Force, he felt the a crack growing protective walls. When Goran passed away soon after, a certain loneliness crept up on him, despite the regular contact with his kids and mate.  He sought contact with his younger brother again but couldn’t help but become very silent after the losses that he withessed throughout his life as rescuer. He tried to harden himself yet again and remained loyal to his sister. He was still determined to give his everything to follow in his father’s footsteps.

His sister’s fury took its toll
The Force had gained a lot more ground under Ekster’s lead. His father would have been proud to see how his Fjordland Force now lead by his daughter had inspired other siderians to establish fighting forces as well. Humans had retreated from most of the Fjordlands and Lakelands (Sweden and Finland) and even in the Lowlands (central Europe), they retreated from siderian hunting lands. Ekster’s fury had ignited the spirits of so many other siderians that with their joint forces, they could finally speak of some victory. However, they had to remain active and screen the lands regularly to suppress any returning humans. That seemed to have infuriated his sister even more, especially when the humans tried to take their once biggest settlement in the Fjordlands back. That was also the place where Jay’s sister Siri had died. Jay noticed how enraged Ekster was and he was afraid that the lust for vengeance would blind her for any danger. She had her own children and Siri’s daughter Tiba at her side, but that couldn’t protect her from herself. Jay’s fears were right. As he patrolled the area with the other rescuers, the message came that Ekster was injured. He rushed to the place and brought her to the healers as quickly as he could. Her injuries were too severe and she passed away a few days later. Her son Crystellar took over the lead as General. His course was different than his mother’s. It did Jay good to see that he was quieter and less driven by fury than Ekster was. With him at the lead, there was hope for a less violent future for siderians.

The last quiet years
Jay stayed as a rescuer for a few more years before his own age made his work too heavy. He had become even closer to his last remaining sibling, Morthian, he worked as a healer. Morthian continued his work for a few more years after Jay and his mate had retreated themselves from the Force to live their last years on the Sætansen territory in the North. During Jay’s last years, he was more often accompanied by Morthian who had retired from his work as healer as well. As his strength faded away, he realized that his father would have been very proud of him.

Is there a particular reason from the backstory he answers to Jay?
He sort of reminds me of myself. Being the quiet type and hating being the centre of attention.

You mean with Jayto? I don't know...energy-wise they feel quite connected, yet not the same persons.

Ah yeah he's not really the type of social-attention person indeed

Yeah Jay takes more of his mom, but has his father's rather heavy bodybuild. The other two kids (Siri and Morthian) are a bit more 'inbetween'
