APPEARANCE

Build: Tevi is a rather gracefully built cat with one, blaring exception - his future slim build, hidden for now by thick fur and kitten chub - is impeded by disproportionately long legs and unfairly sized paws, which add to his horrible clumsiness and rather impressive attraction to the ground. While petite looking in build, his paws and legs promise that he will get to a more impressive height than his mother, potentially even reaching Finnick's height in the distant future. Overall, he's rather daintily build, the only exception to this rule being a slightly wide chest that helps somewhat with his narrow base.

Fur: Soft and wavy in shades of golden and russet that don't quite match either of his parents, his genetics instead go much further back to both his maternal and paternal grandfather's, Tevi's fur is the first thing a stranger might notice about him. Somewhat short in the majority, but incredibly soft and wispy, his face is framed by gently curling cheek fur and a mop of golden waves atop his head that promises, with age, to grow to the length of his mother's. Breaking away from his shorter fur theme, his chest fur is longer and fluffy with a slight wave, and, on the ruff of his neck, the tiniest hint of a future mane like his mother's can be seen.


Head:  At the moment rounded and rather chubby looking, which is not helped by his extraordinarily fluffy cheeks, Tevi's head is handsomely shaped and promises to be rather regal looking, at least, when it's not streaked with concerned tears. (He'll make Lyra proud in looks, at least!) His ears are about average size and pointed like his mother's, but lacking the tufts atop them. His muzzle is of average length with a slightly sweeping stop, and he has long, feathery whiskers that he tries very hard not to crinkle, but with the unfortunate habit of falling on his face, this is very hard to avoid.

Tail: Just barely shorter than average, Tevi's tail is fluffy with sweeping, feathery fur, wrought with waves and curls that makes it a tad difficult to groom properly.

Color: Primarily golden in color, Tevi boasts a handsome mix of swirling stripes in a gradient from dark to light golden from both his mother and his father - favoring the latter in placement and thickness, while the former in general shape. His handsome gold fur fades into dark russet points on all five limbs and he sports dark mask on his face, very nearly hidden by a large, creamy blaze dotted with freckles not unlike his mother's. In fact, freckles in different shades are splattered throughout his stripes and creamy fur, gathering in patches of high density - most notable on his chest, thigh, and face. High white in coloration, rather asymmetrical markings offset his golden fur, with patterns that clearly show he is his father's child...in looks, at least. Dark ears, in an almost ebony hue perch atop his head, highlighted by creamy dots in the rear - a clear Finnick trait that completes his rather striking, princely appearance.

His eyes are an unusual, soft yellow, most likely coming from his grandparents.

Scent: The sweet scent of milk and grass.

Scars/Deformities: None, but he's usually covered in bruises or scrapes from faceplanting, and he gets quite a few nosebleeds.
Accessories:  Him nakey : (

PERSONALITY

Shy- Sweet - Awkward - Angst Ridden, Anxious -  Unconfident - Accidental Pessimist

|| / Shy, +Intelligent

A startling foil to his much more adventurous siblings, Tevi is shy - almost painfully so, often bringing him to the point of tears if forced into socialization. The only cats he dares associate with are his immediate family and grandparents - often tagging along with his siblings if only for the fear of being left behind. It's rare to see this little golden child out in public, much preferring to hide in his mother's fur or his father's ruff, his whiskers trembling and pale golden eyes fixed firmly on the ground. It's not exactly clear if his shyness has to do with a fear of others or simply...fear of everything, but it's more likely it's because of his increasing awkwardness and his startling ability to say the perfectly wrong thing at the horrifyingly wrong time. Usually quiet, he prefers cuddling with his mother or listening in on her conversations as opposed to exploring the world with the twins or his sister...but they might die without him, so he's forced to tag along anyway.

He's inherited his mother's intelligence, as well, and he's proving to be somewhat studious and much more cautious than his siblings. He's certainly one to think before acting...and think, and think, and maybe get there, but he doesn't quite mind if he never does and instead can go cuddle up with his mother. He has a habit of using words much too large for him that he often stumbles over, despite knowing the meaning, or simply echoing his mother or father's words. He loves anything that is especially long and fun sounding, and he will repeat almost any word he hears, so for Spirit's sake, be careful. Keep him innocent.

|| + Sweet

Whether he's good at expressing it or not, and while it may seem like a surprise considering his constant expectation of the world ending and everyone being a murderer or a murderee, Tevi truly does have a good heart and is one of the sweetest cats you'll meet. He doesn't quite understand how others works, but he tries, and he is one of the first to offer cuddles to his mother or father, or give gentle licks on the nose, even give a gift of a rare flower to the lucky ones, if he doesn't spontaneously combust from embarrassment. (It's a very real concern!) Gentle and loving, Tevi's heart is as golden as his fur, and rarely - if ever - will you find anything insulting coming out of this little tom's mouth. He is, perhaps, the most snuggly of all of his siblings, and adores little more than cuddling up with his mother or father or getting nuzzles on his soft golden head. While not the best with words, his presence has an oddly comforting air about it....when he's not nagging his siblings to be careful or worrying about the star in the sky that - can't you see it getting closer, mother?

|| / Awkward, Clumsy

Tevi is the King of Awkwardness. It's a sad but true fact, whether physically or mentally, he has the extraordinarily ability to say something accidentally horrendous at the absolutely worst time, and often with no idea he's doing it. (Upon realization, he turns vividly red with horror and goes to cry and hide with his mother and perhaps melt into the earth, but that hasn't happened yet, which he doesn't mind, because that would be SCARY.) With legs and paws much too large for his body, he is perhaps one of the clumsiest cats in existence - and I suppose his parents have simply gotten used to him coming home from a forced adventure bleeding and battered due to no fault but his own. He's constantly tripping over things, usually his own paws, and smashing his face, tripping up other cats, running into trees, falling into holes. He thinks he has perpetual bad luck, which only contributes to his constant anxiety and angst...

|| - Angst Ridden, Anxious

If there's something to be concerned about, have no doubt that Tevi is absolutely terrified of it. He is King Angst, perhaps even more so than the infamous Hamlet (who, he says? It doesn't matter, Tevi.) Constantly convinced the world is going to end, he's constantly fretting to his mother about the color of the sky, or a rumble he heard in the distance, or a funny looking cat he could have SWORN had big teeth and deep red eyes...even his own body - he was positive his heart did a double thump, and therefore he's dying, and he's sorry mother but he is probably going to catch on fire or be smooshed by a boulder or something equally terrible. Nothing in his life seems to have caused this eternal terror, but it's there, always, never more evident than when he's tagging along with his siblings, constantly chattering about how DANGEROUS what they're doing is, and how they're going to die, or break their legs, or break their noses (probably with a bleeding nose of his own, since he has a one-sided attraction to the ground. The ground seems to love him, but he hates the ground. It's painful.)

Making this even worse, he's extraordinarily gullible, so he can and WILL believe almost anything negative you tell him, leading to even more late-night crying or questioning to his mother about this terrible thing he heard another cat say. Stevie is one of the few cats who can comfort him, but usually even her abilities are not great enough to get him to sleep - it's his own exhaustion that eventually takes over, and at last he'll sleep after a barrage of rather startling questions.


|| - Unconfident

Most likely due to his extraordinary bad luck, or his lack of social skills, or anything inbetween, Tevi has the confidence of...a very unconfident fish, to put it mildly. Or maybe a worm. He wants more than anything to be as charming as his father, as leaderly and confident as his mother or as adventurous as his brothers and sister, but he always seems to fall flat, and in his eyes, can't ever seem to do anything right. (He can't even fall right, his poor nose.) He has very little confidence in his abilities and constantly needs reassurance to try anything new or do absolutely anything in front of company. He absolutely believes he is the most disappointing of his siblings, and believes the world is out to get him - often disbelieving that cats do indeed like him...but when he finally realizes it, he is bound to be all smiles.

He often tries to emulate Finn, prancing around big and scary before being spooked by a dust bunny and running back to his mother. It's ok, though, he'll get there.



|| / Serious,  - Accidental Pessimist

Tevi is one to take things very seriously. He's not built with the ability for simple 'fun', he's far too busy focusing on the what-ifs (which to him are not what-ifs, they're whens), or trying to learn how to interact like his brothers. He doesn't quite understand cats who are carefree in general, he's constantly tense or questioning or worrying about living up to his family's standards (Silvers and Golds everywhere! What is a poor Tevi to do...) He tries, oh, he tries, but usually ends up making a fool of himself whenever he tries to have fun. He takes game rules too seriously, or gets too anxious on messing up to even play. What he doesn't see is he's perfect as he is and, if he'd just relax a little, would have great fun. His favorite 'games' are chasing birds and butterflies - but he likes to play alone best, without anyone there to judge or scrutinize him.

While he's rather eccentric in personality, overall he is a child with a heart of gold...even if he thinks he's going to be abducted by aliens. He will try to protect them.

In short...

++ Intelligent, Sweet, Kind-hearted, Practical, Gentle
// Awkward, Clumsy, Worrisome, Shy, Serious
--  Unconfident, accidental pessimist, Angst ridden, Anxious, TOO PRACTICAL

Voice Actor: ???

Roleplay example:

    He scarcely noticed the cats weaving around him, cats he had grown up  with (because he was all grown up now, very much so!) and known since he first opened his eyes stepping up to recieve their new tattoos. Had he been paying attention, he would have noticed the new flames burnt into his mother's fur, the pretty, jagged swirls on Earth Tribers, the avian wings that adorned Air Tribers. He would have noticed an exchange in leadership among Light Tribe, would have noticed his very own favorite Sani Belle now had a shiny golden tattoo to match her pretty fur. But he didn't.

    His eyes were fixed on the new spirit, who radiated something so intriguing, so new, so cool, something that seemed to echo deep in his soul, tug him towards its radiant feline form. Eyes wide, almost reflecting the Spirit's ethereal glow, the little tabby tom reached out a chubby paw, as if to touch the being, despite his distance. He was completely enamoured.
Mama didn't like this Spirit. Before, he was bad. His mama had said so. But...but now, as Roran gazed up at the luminescent figure, he felt as if maybe this cool new Spirit wasn't nearly as bad as his mama had thought. Of course, he would tell the being, because Pangur had told him being polite was good, and being honest was the same as being polite, right? He wasn't sure.
    His paws were moving, almost unconsciously. Glimmering blue eyes seemed to reflect the spirit's brilliance, as if the entity was caught in the little tom's eyes.

    He had to touch it. It seemed to draw him in, a brilliant light more beautiful than any gem, and pretty rock he'd seen.
Wriggling his nose, the chubby tom scrabbled between the new Leaders, hardly even processing that the cats had received glimmering new tattoos, mouth dropped open, chubby paw extended, to reach out, to touch the glimmering outline of the cat.

    And he did.

    Almost without warning, strange, foreign power jolted through him, a cataclysmic, painful, wonderful experience that made the world around him seem to warp, slow down. Stop. He could feel an invigorating mix of ice and fire burning through his veins, the spinning of the world around him, the brilliant white glow encasing his form.
    And then it sped up again, and he gave a shake of his head, still somewhat dazed. The little tom stared up at the new spirit, mouth agape, ears wiggling. Was that supposed to happen? He frowned, an idea suddenly sparking in his mind, and he spun in a clumsy circle, trying to catch a glimpse of the swirl that was surely to be returned to him.
    But it wasn't there.
    Dumbfounded, Roran stared back up at the Spirit, then back at his naked shoulder, before realization suddenly set in, and his mouth dropped open once more.

    Oops.

"PANGUR!"
