Edit: Completed character ready for review. [hider=Cat LeBlanc][center][img]http://i.imgur.com/sY1C4BV.png[/img] ((If created with enough emotion... [b]Art comes alive.[/b])) [u][b]~Appearance~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]A pure-white girl who gives off an aura of stern detachment, as though she is looking directly through you with her bright red eyes. Cat stands quite tall for her age at just under 6 feet, but is quite skinny for her height, like a tall, slender blade of grass or a sunflower. Still, because she's so tall (and combined with her stern, vacant stare) she can come off as fairly intimidating to young children or even nervous adults. Somehow, people always get the impression that she doesn't care about a thing in the world, even though the opposite is actually closer to the truth. She dresses in a fairly lax manner, and her signature clothing item is a cat-eared hoodie, the hood of which she almost never lets down. If she has taken her hood off, it can only mean she's ready to play hard ball.[/color] [u][b]~Name~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]Catherine "Cat" LeBlanc[/color] [u][b]~Age~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]16[/color] [u][b]~Gender~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]Female[/color] [u][b]~Rose Color~[/b][/u] White [u][b]~Why are you in the Art Gallery?~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]Cat is an art lover, and even an artist herself.

She is always seen with her pure white hoodie, but can't stand getting dirty. If even a bit of dirt gets on her outfit and she thinks it won't come off, she gets angry, and even deranged. She is always acting passive, but is immensely protective of her friends, and will be the first one to step in front of somebody who is being threatened, even though she's scared of tough-looking guys. She is always thinking about lots of things internally, even when talking to others, which is what causes her distant stare. This leads people to believe that she doesn't care about anything. In actuality, she is incredibly loyal and will help her friends in any way she can. She doesn't talk much, or emote much, but it's usually quite scary when she does show emotion, because it means she has either been sent into a blind fury by some dirt, or else she is sternly protecting her friends. Though she doesn't really say anything about it, she's usually pretty good at seeing when other people have problems, and like a dog or a cat, she will try to stay close to comfort them. However, because she doesn't talk about this habit, it can just end up being confusing to the person involved. She loves being alone and in darkness where nobody can see her, but conversely hates having the spotlight on her or being in the middle of a crowd because it feels like everyone is judging her, or is scared of her. She has a secret love of cute things like miniature animals and objects, or stuffed dolls, and secretly longs to be cute herself, even though she knows she is more 'cool' than 'cute' considering her height, age, and lack of emotions.[/color] [u][b]~Biography~[/b][/u] [color=dddddd]Even a perfectly normal family with perfectly normal lives and a perfectly normal daughter isn't without its own problems. Such a family is surely hiding secrets. In the case of the LeBlancs, their only daughter was supposed to have a twin brother, but he was lost in infancy. Because of this staggering loss, the entire family dedicated themselves to preserving their perfect nuclear family (or at least the outward image) so that they wouldn't run into any more problems. Catherine was supportive of this goal as well. She wanted her family's image to stay perfect and clean, even as a child. So when she started having problems like bullying, anxiety, and depression, she kept it entirely to herself. For a lot of years, she channeled her problems into painting and singing, and when she couldn't sleep, she would go for walks alone to clear her head. But as she got older, her bottled emotions started creating more problems. In one major incident, she once got so mad at a boy for spilling paint on her in art class that she sent him to the hospital with a broken arm. Her teachers were stunned, in disbelief that this was the same girl who always kept to herself and never spoke a word. Later that week, all of the boy's friends ganged up on her and beat her up behind the school. She didn't say a word about this to the teachers or her parents, merely taking a bath to clean herself up when she got home and acting like nothing at all had happened. Now, at age 16, she has lost her passion for most things she used to be passionate about, primarily her art, which has been stuck in a rut for ages. In going to see Guertena's supposedly transcendant art, Cat hopes that she can reignite the spark of painting within herself, and once again find a way to channel all of her negative emotions that she otherwise doesn't know how to deal with. She couldn't possibly miss this exhibit for all the world.[/color][/center][/hider] Edit 2: Also, if you feel you need a co-GM, I could be up for the task. I like to think I'm extremely familiar with Ib's lore, setting, gameplay and what-have-you, and I've GM'd in the past. If you don't need any help, that's also fine. I dislike doing work :zzz
