History

Essence grew up in a loving household in the middle of nowhere, Her father was Dracula, a local ex-menace. Her mother was Meteor, a local legend. Ah, what a odd pair. But, it's not about them. this is about Essence. Essence, once old enough to leave home, went to the nearest town- the town her mother grew up in. when she left her mother gave her her jewelry and her cape plus some words of what the two of them were to the town, so she wore her jewelry and cape and she was careful. There she lived, by herself. She made friendships but she never told anyone who her parents were. When she heard of The Gate, she went to it. She desired adventure and to be away from the hometown that might recognize her stripes, even though she mostly took after her mother.

RP Example!

Essence padded along the pathway, her ears twitching to make sure no one was sneaking up on her. as she breathed in the air taking scents into her nose she caught a scent- it was a rabbit. she immediately crouched; it was an instinctual thing and she finally spotted where it was at, she pounced. She swiftly killed it, before eating it. Essence was heading to the gate but that could wait for this morning's breakfast. she finished her rabbit and stood, taking in the scents around her again. She padded through the wildlife, plants were aplenty. It was not long before she was running to her destination, said destination being the town closest to The Gate. her paws skimmed the ground as she felt the elation of running. She always appreciated the feel of the wind on her face and ears. it did not feel like long before her breathing came in ragged gasps and she was at the edge of the town. There, she padded into the town.

Essence laughed at king's comment, "Not really, but I'd be glad to join you!" she paused as another cat asked a question and yet another came back to the group. "wow, what a group, eh?" she commented more to herself than anything, when the cat showed the map essence nodded, "I, too, found a map. I also agree that this could be a trap" She flicked her gaze over everyone, "My name's essence, what's yours? I figure if we're going into this together, we might as well know each other's names." She searches ed the area as she said this, aware of the other's conversations, and wondering if she could trust any of them. Probably not enough to disclose any personal information, excepecally who her parents are. Even Kaia, the cat she came here with, did not have that knowledge. She kept her tail from touching the ground, keeping her pawsteps silent and her fur flat.

Essence Smiled, "Yeah! I'll take the stone for the bag" and gave the bag to her before taking the stone and slipping it into her bag. She 'oofed' when Kaia slammed into her. "Kaia, breath." she stood, collecting the maps and the stone which fell out of her bag and put them back in, "I went Northwest first, and then went down this road." She straightened her collar, making sure the neckless she found was on tight to it. Essence's fur had flattened again, she seemed a bit irritated. She moved a bit away as she searched the area, again to see if she could find anything else. she felt disheartened to find nothing around her. She turned back to Kaia, "Hey next time we separate and come back together, could you not run me over? I don't mean to be mean, however, I don't want to lose my stuff every time we meet" She heads to the dark street, no longer waiting for king or anyone else to respond, she needed to find things, it was driving her nuts.

Essence grimaced as she found nothing, yet again. Why did this have to happen? It was either a bag or nothing, and she thoroughly hated it. Can't she find more of the stones she traded for? or maybe something else. something better. Whatever the case was, she seemed to have terrible luck. She bristled as she walked down the alley, looking for SOMETHING. Damn, if only her brain wasn't wired to need to do something. Couldn't she just have stayed in the straight road, keeping out of this dark and desolate place? No, she had to be doing something. Had to need to see places she hasn't seen before. It's as if she couldn't stay in one location for more then five minutes. Sometimes she couldn't stand her incessant need to explore, other times it suited her. Like when she had to get out of the house, she explained to her dad that she was like a bird, she needed to fly.

Essence looked around the black. Great. Just like what her father would have expected. she was dead. She wasn't scared, She was bitter. or at least until those blue eyes flashed through the darkness. Still, this did not scare her, actually, she was quite joyful. She wasn't dead. Then she woke. The smell and taste of ash left her trying to open her eyes. What was causing this scent? a campfire? She struggled to stand, but eventually, she managed. She could see the other cats wandering about, she could also see giant statues. Dear lord these radiated her father's energy. If only she had her mother here, her light tamed even the most vicious beast of her father. The one with "water" behind it reminded her of him if only a little. although, the one which seethed in anger did too. How fascinating that she could see reminders of her life here, in such a place? This place certainly did not seem like the golden city of legend, if only it was. Essence touched the neckless that she attached to her collar.

Essence grinned at Kaia's accident before looking in the boxes, she found some healing berries that she stashed away and then saw another pale cat's strange actions. She had heard of something like this from her mother... what was it called? Oh, yeah. Dancing. Her father had commented that it was quite easy to turn those movements into fighting. He was correct. she watched the other cats interacting, and was amused by the pale cat's comment. "You know... that dance of your could be turned into fighting moves" she walked forward, the gold she was wearing glittered in the light. "If you'd listen I'd like to make a proposition since it seems we are in the same group, I say we all work together. and since i doubt we should go in risky situations without knowing how to defend ourselves, how about I teach you how to turn that dance into fighting moves and then we teach the rest of the group? This offers an opportunity to learn each other's strengths and weaknesses so we can work together" She flicked her tail tip, she honestly was unnaturally still for who she was as if she was holding her breath.

Quinta
The ability to manipulate the essence of Life, which is present in all living beings throughout the universe. You will be overloaded by emotions. You must learn how to control them to properly use this power.

|| Level 1 ||
You may find that you are aware of the life forces around you.
♦ You can mend small wounds by pulling on another being’s life.
♦ You may have insects as a companion. You cannot speak with it.
♦ You can summon light and make shapes with it.

|| Level 2 ||
You can see life forces, but they are fuzzy and are faint lights. You may find emotions come to you easily.
♦ Touching another can make you tell if another is injured. You can heal bigger wounds, at the cost of the lives of less intelligent beings. Plantlife is summoned at your happier emotions.
♦ You can summon a companion of a small rodent. You may be able to start to understand it. It is at your beck and call as a battle companion.
♦ The light can become solid, but only for a short amount of time. It burns to touch. You do not need a light source to summon it.

||Level 3 ||
You can see the strings of light that are another’s life force inside their chest. Strong emotions make things easier.
♦ Life flourishes with you. Life dies with you. You can create plantlife and also kill with the simple tug of emotion and the light. You can heal life-threatening wounds.
♦ You can call bigger animals (no bigger than a fox) to be your companion. Small birds will come to you. You may heal others using these creatures, but they are meant for war.
♦ You can make solid figures of light from nothing. You can burn others with it or heal them with it. The figures can be as big as you.

||Master ||
You may find emotions welling up from nothing. You are sensitive. You can tug on life forces, but cannot pull it out of another.
♦ You can bring someone from the brink of death. However, once the light of life is gone, you cannot bring the cat back. Healing another in this state and close to it can cause emotional damage. You can utilize plant life to its fullest and can also destroy an entire circle of life.
♦ You may have a companion larger than a fox. Bigger birds are available to you. They take a lot of attention in the first hour to bond with you. These creatures can easily be used to heal others, but yet again - are best for war. You can speak to them from your mind.
♦ You can make illusions of light by making figures with them. They have no distinct features, they are just a shape. The light can heal bigger wounds, at the cost being drained and getting cuts in the same place.
