Roleplayed by: Punch

Appearance:
Espeon is small , even for a female. Full grown, she stretches only thirty-five inches and twenty-one pounds. Her frame is compact, not long and thin, and she lacks any real definition of muscles. Her coat is long and shaggy, and would attract dirt and other substances, if Espeon did not love the water. Being in the Aogut Pride, she lives near a swamp and was taught to swim at a young age. Her coat seems to always shine with the brightness of the water.
Being a lynx, Espeon has a sandy colored coat with black markings and a white underbelly. Her ears are remarkable large, with tufts of black hair at the top. Her eyes penetrate into the darkness as a yellow/copper color. They are large and hold an innocent quality. Espeon walks on delicate paws padded pink. Her tails swings behind her when she walks, long and thin, for Iberian lynxes have the longest tails of their species. The very tip is spotted black. Shying away from conflict, Espeon has never been in a battle and thus has no scars or battle wounds.
Height: 35 in (length) 27 in (at shoulders)
Weight 21 lbs
Battle wounds? No

Personality:
Espeon is a timid cat. She would rather hide in the shadows and observe than step forward and make a friend. She doesn’t have many friends but the friends she does have are very loyal and she can tell them anything. She is scared of doing or saying the wrong thing, and this fear makes her live her life very sheltered.
Espeon doesn’t always know the right thing to say and it can sometimes come across as being unfriendly, although she has a truly caring, innocent heart. She cares about everyone and is not yet twisted with anger and evil. Espeon is extremely forgiving. She can never stay mad at another cat.
She is always patient, with her friends, family, and even waiting for prey.
Espeon is afraid of her own shadow. She had a very traumatic past, misses her mother very much, doesn’t get along well with her father, and wants a sibling very badly. This causes her to be very unstable and not fit into her pride well. She talks to herself, whimpers randomly, and sometimes withdraws away from the pride for day. Her father finds her as a disappointment and Espeon feels his shame. She wishes that she could be a stronger, friendly cat for his sake, but she can’t.
She has so much sadness, but she doesn’t feel bad for herself. Her sensitivity causes her to feel bad for others when they are sad. She views it as her job to make them happy, but most times she is to shy to approach them.

History
Espeon’s mother, Adela used to tell her stories when she was younger. She said each star was the spirit of a fallen cat. She showed Espeon her grandmother and grandfather. And she showed her her sister.
Espeon and Fauna were born in the beginnings of spring. Unfortunately, that year, a huge snowstorm crossed the land. Adela huddled in a cave with her two kits, only seventy-two hours old, as the freezing wind and rain drove in. Fauna didn’t make it. She froze solid. Espeon doesn’t remember her sister, but she feels her absence every day. She desperately wishes that she could have her back.
Guave, her father, was a very handsome young lynx, but not a very responsible one. He lingered about the pride, staying near his family, but not doing much to help them.
Adele died when Espeon was two years old from a sickness. After that, Espeon and Guave didn’t talk much and he was very aloof. Espeon misses the happiness of her family in her first seventy-two hours, but will never get it back.
