Name: Shala
Species: Cheetah
Gender: Female
Age: 6 years
Personality:
At one time, long ago, Shala used to be fun loving and full of laughter. She had been known for her quick wit and clever remarks, her sparkling eyes and contagious laught. Come the time she went into heat, every male wanted her, to have the honor of fathering such a fine felines cubs. But that all chnged after The Lurch. After The Lurch, when the lands crashed together, Shala became like stone. Now, she only thinks of what must be done. No longer does she dream of fun. No longer does she laugh; her face is a hard mask, her voice devoid of pleasant emotion. Though she does not know it, she longs for the laughter to come into her life. (122 words)
Description:
Shala isn't very unusual in her appearance, merely average. Her body is lean and narrow, often unnervingly thin with hunger. Her amber eyes are surrounded by the black teardrops that are known to her species. A thin scar mars her left hind leg, near her back, but it is old and not very noticable. (54)
History:
Shala's childhood was fairly normal. She was the only cub in her litter, and her mother trained her as neccesary. She did not have a close relationship with her mother, even when she was young as most cubs do. She began to seek attention from others whenever she met them, and as she grew older, her charm made many talk of her. When she became independent of her mother, her repuation has already preceded her. Many males came to mate her. They fought violently, and a couple even died trying to win her. Finally, one triumphant, masculine male won. But to his surprise, it wasn't that easy. Shala laughed at him. Did he really think it was that easy? She wanted to be wooed, to be loved. And so he did. It wasn't love, but it was fun, and she was pleased. She was rewarded with two cubs. Four months after their birth, however, The Lurch began, causing the earthquake that felled a tree onto their thicket den, and killed her cubs. Shala, too, was caught, be survived with only a scar to remind her. By now her mate was long gone, off to woo another, as was his way. Since then, Shala has never been the same. (208)
