link to original bio

Summary
Bear that Catches Fish is a traditional and fairly reserved water wader who takes a quiet pride in her hunting skills. She is deceptively quiet, with a determination that refuses to be cowed. She bears scars from a stint as a loner, a time which she is tight-lipped about. Speaking makes her incredibly anxious, leaving Bear as a cat of few words, most of which are muted or soft - presumably, this is due to something during her journey, as her shy kithood was not nearly as severe as her seemingly compulsive silence these days. Despite her apparent stoicism, she has a strong sense of justice and an unwavering loyalty to her home.

Potential Plots
- Romance/Friendship Plots: with a habit of emotional distance and a dedication to the hunt, it's difficult for Bear to foster relationships. She keeps to herself, and has hurts from long ago that she does not speak of. There is always the potential for her to warm up to someone, or nurture a fondness to fruition.

- Rogueish Remembrance: one of the chapters of her nomadic story revolved around her time with a small band of rogues. Still of older apprentice age, she found herself stuck with a group she did not care for, kept sedentary by fear. After a particularly explosive fight that almost cost her an eye, she was able to escape with the assistance of one of the older rogues. There is a certain wariness that remains after the long experience.

- Blast from the Past: There are quite a few persons that Bear ran into during her wanderings. Some would remember an entirely silent cat, that may have offered to share hard-won prey with naught more than a tilt of the head. Others may recall a hoarse voice with sparse words accompanying a young cat whose eyes seemed to gravitate towards the horizon, wherever her destination seemed to await.
