Abilities:
As far as abilities go, as said Amber can transform into a leopard. She can hunt, run, and jump. She can also change other humans into were-leopards, by breaking the skin with a scratch or a bite but only during a full moon. During the full moon, she is stuck a leopard.
Disadvantages:
While a tall leopard, Amber is new to it. She doesn't have mastery of her leopard-skills yet. Hunting, running, and jumping are things she still needs a lot of work on. When it is a full moon, she becomes more animal-like.
Family:
She had a family. Father, mother, and an older sister at some point. However, after a divorce she had a falling out with her mum. She left home when she was 16 and hasn't been back since.
*Her father is rumoured to be an extra-terrestrial, and when he left he took her sister out into outer space to his planet. This is where Kria got her slightly Elven features.
History:
Amber was born and grew up in a village called Okaya. Had a happy family, but as stated this ended when her father left. She started sneaking out of the house after this, eventually leading to a fight and her leaving home. During her travels during a full moon, she crossed the path of a large Amur leopard. Although she was able to run away, she had been scratched on the arm.
Slowly she began exhibiting strange symptoms. Her skin was itchy at the area of the cut, then spread to her entire body. Fur started to grow out of her skin, as her hands and feet grew claws. Whiskers jutted out of her face, as a tail jutted out of her other side.
She freaked out about it for a few days, not knowing what to do. Then after the full moon had ended, she focused her mind and was able to change back into a human. By now though she was becoming quite fond of her leopard form, and decided to change back to it as she continued on her journey.
To make money and to also collect things, Amber started a career as a thief. When she was human she was adept at pickpocketing.
Anything Else We Need to Know?:
Not at the moment
Entrance:
A young lanky Amur leopard creeps into a clearing, a forest in the background. This was another attempt at hunting, to make her stomach happy. Leaves and berries aren't a very good diet for leopards... need meat.
Her prey, a deer, stood eating grass in the clearing, seemingly unaware of the approaching six foot long leopard.
A twig snapped under the leopard's paw, and the deer ran into the woods. Sighing, the leopard gazed at the woods. She contemplated whether or not she should follow the deer or go back and find something else to eat.
