Name Teia of Blackthorn Age. 19-22 Race. Nekojin [IMG]http://www.freewebs.com/jessicakitsune/GunslingerNeko.jpg[/IMG] Profession. Rouge (Thief and Conartist) Skills Stealth, Acrobatics, Lock picking, Gun fighter, Persuasion, Knife throwing and Evasion Teia isn't a renowned Nekojin Gun fighter but she is known among rogues as the Gun Queen because among her peers she's without equal Flamboyant and filled with a zest for life she is almost never seen without a smile on her face, even when she's killing. No cold blooded killer or she'd have become a member of the Darkmoon assassins guild where she's from she will not hesitate to fire once her weapon is drawn. Her tail unlike many Nekojin isn't merely a signal and balancing tool but is known to be prehensile HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Teia walked across one of the ropes hung with the Royal banners attached to the tower which was her destination. It was a new moon tonight and purrfect for what she was up to. She made the tower in the same amount of time that it would have taken her to walk across the courtyard 80 feet below. Clad in a night suit she would have appeared to be an assassin come to make a kill but Teia wasn't that sort, she preferred taking things over lives. Reaching up she carefully caught the edge of the open but barred window and looked inside. There it was dimly lighting the room, a dragon's Crystal Heart just begging a thief with skill to liberate it. Removing a small screw jack from a bag she wore on her chest she pads the bars with small sticky patches of leather to prevent metal on metal sounds. A dozen or so turns later and she backs off the jack a stows it back in her bag and hangs the bag outside the window . The rest is child's play as she squeezes between the bars and into the room. Sniffing the air she detects the strange scents of magic so she positions herself before making her grab. She takes several small wires and loops them around the crystal then attaches the wires through leather eye lets on her tail tip's band All secure she grins as she clears her flight path visually. Rocking back and forth like a sprinter before the gun Teia preps. Then with an explosive burst of speed runs towards the bared window and dives through the gap she made with her jack Behind her as her tail feels the weight of the crystal go taunt and move free of it's display is an explosion of fire. She hurtles out of the window and lands all fours on the banner rope which bucks a bit threatening to throw her off. Once she's steady she stands an turns snatching the crystal and her bag into which she stuffs the beautiful sparkly. She smells singed hair but isn't burned as she throws the bag straps over her shoulders while the alarm is raised. Men burst into the room she's just vacated as guards pour out onto the walls Lights suddenly bathe the courtyard and she's spotted on the rope. Men rush towards the stanchion that secures her rope to the outer wall effectively blocking her escape as she once more on all four runs halfway across then stops with a giggle. There is the flash of a crescent blade buckled to the tip of her tail which splits the rope in half. Teia let's out a "Wahoo!" As she swings down then towards the outer wall and through another window to roll across a hall coming to a stop against the wall inside. Giggling she sprints down the hall as the astonished guards outside try to respond. Two guards men in an odd room over the old gate are surprised as she enters and throws exploding pepper bombs at their feet which fill the room with choking smoke. As the two men not prepared with something covering their mouths gag on the smoke Teia kicks open a hatch on what was once called a kill hole and used to dump scalding oil on any trying to break the gates. The 20 foot drop would cause most to hesitate but for a Nekojin is just a little jump as she hugs the bag close and falls outside the walls. She lands and heads for the nearby storm drain she has prepared for her escape expecting to dodge a hail of gunfire that never comes. ______________________ 5 days later Teia boards her train as the final whistle sounds giggling, dancing an singing. She didn't intend to but two old friends working the Sugar daddy con had seen her in town and invited her to their place for a quick tickle an nip. The three old friends giggled and exchanged stories of the cons they once pulled as a trio and had a grand time. That is till Teia detected something wasn't quite right. They'd laced the nip with something trying to capture her for the reward money but Teia had gotten the drop on then instead an left the two swinging by the ankles from the rafters of their own room.
