Name: Neko Ravenhurst
Race: Humanoid Feline (Hatchling)
Age: 18
Physical Description: By stretching and standing on her tip-toes, she can gain a mighty height of 5'2". She is slightly built with a shock of purple hair that has a tendency to fall in her slitted eyes if not tied back. Her body is covered in grey fur, so short it passes for normal skin at a distance. Her hands and feet end in retractable claws. While not a great weapon in combat, they do help her in climbing and have been know to leave a scar or two in the past. She tends to dress in blacks or greys to better blend in with the shadows where she feels at home. Typically she is seen with a mask over the lower half of her face to hide her more noticable feline features. She is fiercly loyal and protective of those she considers family or friends, often putting herself into danger to keep them safe.

Background:

Neko began life as a Hatchling in the original Menagerie. Like her kin, she hatched from an egg. Her particular breed being that of a catt. Her original form was that of a house cat with higher intelligence. She quickly became attached to her "Father", Alexander Ravenhurst as well as the rest of the lost souls that found their way to that waystation between dimensions. It was not long before her first evolution came and she changed into the form she has now. Somewhere between human and feline. Tho childlike in nature, she became very protective of her friends and "family" (now including her "uncles" Renquist and Roland and her "cousins" Tilik, a ratt breed of hatchling, and the other hatchlings that resided there.) and took up a study of martial arts to better be able to protect those around her. Using her small frame to its best advantage, she excelled in stealth and thievery as well as simple thrown weapons. Under the tutalage of her "Uncle Renny" she learned and studied and eventually gained the honor of bearing one of his prized swords in battle. Something she never took lightly. Her fondest memory of this time of her life being raiding the kitchens with Tilik and sneaking off to eat their spoils.

When her uncle left, she felt sadness at the loss of family, but understood that it was something that had to be done. In his absence, she continued her studies and worked closely with her father to maintain order in the wake of the departure. After a time, her longing for family grew and she approached her father with the idea of venturing off to look for her lost uncle. Using his magick, she made trips to several dimentions searching for some sign of him. As the failed attempts continued to rise, her father became less and less willing to provide assistance, believing it to now be a "fool's errand". Not wanting to give up, she used what little bit she had learned at the feet of her father to activate the portal once more without his knowledge. This was not without its cost, however, as due to the lack of knowledge and power she had to leave her prized possessions behind and has no way of getting back "home" now.

Now she has found herself in this strange land with an Uncle that may or may not be "her" uncle. She has done her best to try and fit in with the people she has found here and while still not sure if this version of Grayell is the one she knew, she has adopted him nonetheless and would do anything to keep him safe. Only time will tell if her mission was a success.
