APPEARANCE
NORTH AMERICAN MOUNTAIN LION — 100% HEALTH
now a young adult, melantha is nearing the end of her physical growth. with large paws, she stands at the height (or more so) of a medium sized dog. her pelt no longer sports the chestnut dapples characteristic of cubs, and is instead a sleek sandy hue; albeit still fluffy and a bit unruly due to her youth. overall, she is just the average cougar: no special markings, no unique coloring, and no identifiable wounds which set her apart from the rest. she is not ugly, just plain. if anything, her eyes are the most beautiful aspect of her features are her eyes. a pale, olive green which appear blue or grey in the right lighting. but it is a difficult detail to notice, as she rarely lets anyone close enough (for long enough) to notice.
PERSONALITY
MOODY | SARCASTIC | CAUTIOUS | ASTUTE | INTELLIGENT | LONELY | INDEPENDENT
essentially the stereotypical moody teen, melantha is an unstable mixture of hormones. having been separated from her family at a young age due to a natural disaster, she quickly learned to survive on her own. while her astute and intelligent nature allows her to quickly pick up on how to hunt, fight, and otherwise maneuver through the wilds of life, the fact that she is lost and sad and alone makes sure that no one forgets that in spite of all her talents, mel is merely a child thrust into adulthood far too early. she desperately desires some sort of connection with others to fill the void her family left, but she learned early on that the only person she can trust is herself. thus, she left behind the sweet innocence of her early days and instead adapted a cold, standoffish personality to protect herself from the sadness of being lost and abandoned once more. however, she truly is a wonderful girl, beneath the self-hate and the mood swings. she dreams of falling in love and possesses a keen passion for art and learning. but very rarely does she allow anyone else to witness such attributes. only those who can survive her sharp-tongue and break through her defenses may experience her softer, more delicate traits.
in regards to her membership to the pitts, she is generally unopposed to the violence as she views it as the natural order of life. however, she is not fond of the slavery. but she is a rule follower and obedient to her superiors and will not actively go against the practice. she can, however, be moved to sneak food, water, or medicine to those who need it.
