"Monsters will always exist. There's one inside each of us. But an angel lives there, too. There is no more important agenda than figuring out how to slay one and nurture the other."

A Rich Chocolate Brown

Electric Blue
| Tattoos |
On the left side of her pelvis is a tribal tiger tattoo. If she wears loose pants very low on her hips, you can see the upper half of the tiger peeking up over her waistband.
| Scars |
Tigress has many, many scars on her body. There are plenty found on her shoulders, palms, and arms. There is one large one that starts on the back of her neck and travels downs to the small of her back. It appears to be made by some sort of blade, is very sensitive, and Tigress does not enjoy talking about how she got it.
| Oddities |
Tigress’ body is perfectly crafted for combat. She’s short with a lithe, lean body made for endurance and speed. She’s quick, hard to hit, and very flexible.
Tigress gained some of the physical attributes of the tiger whose genes were put in her body. Along with her normal ears are two round-tipped tiger ears. Sprouting from her tailbone is a black, orange and white striped tiger tail. She has retractable, razor sharp claws on her on each of her fingers and toes.

| Personality |
{ | Quirky | Short-Tempered | Moody | Closed Off | Playful | }
The first thing that should be said is that Tigress is… complex. Why wouldn’t she be? Her genetic code was manipulated into being part not human, so its no surprise that Tigress can be a bit… unpredictable.
Tigress’ inner thoughts are constantly being invaded and altered by the animal instincts buried deep in her consciousness. The traits of the tiger the lives within her spirit alters the way she acts. She can be rather moody and gloomy, but her attitude snaps faster than a cheap rubber band. One minute she might be sullen and depressed, the next excited and happy, and after that perhaps angry and aggressive.
Tigress has an extremely short temper. When she’s pushed past her limit, she quite literally loses control. Her inner beast takes control of her body, and her eyes turn a bright gold color. She goes on a rampage and destroys anything that angers her or gets in her way. She stays like this until knocked out, sedated, or simply collapses due to exhaustion.
Because of this other side of her, Tigress tends to be very closed off with her emotions. Although she doesn’t appear emotionless, it may take a bit of time for her to actually open up to anybody.
Despite all of this, Tigress is still more human than she is monster. Despite her angry, rough exterior, she just wants to fit in. Despite her bad attitude and sharp tongue, she wants to be able to make friends. Deep down, she’s just an odd, playful girl who loves being scratched behind the ears and told she’s extraordinary but in a good way.

~Feline Genes~
Tigress is 93% human and 7% Amur Tiger.
With these added genes, Tigress’ body has a much higher physical capability than most humans. She can sprint at speeds of 40 mph and is about six times stronger than the average man. Her senses are sharpened so much so that if she were to close her eyes she could describe her surroundings perfectly with just her sense of hearing and smell. She can see in the dark. Her tail gives her an extreme sense of added balance, and also helps her always land on her feet. Her body is extremely flexible, and she is capable of jumping 20 feet up in the air.
Tigress has built in knives in each of her fingers and toes. The claws are razor sharp and were genetically altered to be much harder and denser than regular tiger claws. She can slice through metal if she has enough force behind her swing. Her claws can help her scale large structures with amazing speed.
| Strengths |
{ | Wrestling | Sparring | Mixed Martial Arts | Giving Massages | Seducing People | Cuddling | Writing | Swimming | }
| Weaknesses |
~Her Senses~
Although Tigress’ heightened senses are rather helpful, they are also one of her greatest weaknesses. Loud, piercing sounds can leave her defenseless and in pain. Strong smells can distract her and throw off her game.
~Her Tail and Ears~
Both her tail and ears are very sensitive to touch and wounds. If her tail were to become dislocated or broken, it would cause intense pain and completely destroy her sense of balance.
~Thunderstorms and Doctors~
Tigress’ two greatest fears. When there’s thundering weather, she tends to hide in a small, dark place, shaking and crying.
The mere scent of cleaning alcohol can make her very anxious and edgy, and she refuses to go to the doctor’s. If she is told she has to, she will completely resist and do whatever it takes to get away.
| Hobbies |
{ | Writing | Sparring | Working Out | Swimming | Listening to Music | Playing Video Games | }
| Habits |
✦ Tapping || When Tigress gets anxious or nervous she tends to tap on any surface she can find, whether it be a table, a wall, her thighs, etc.
✦ Ear/Tail Movement || Tigress’ ears and tail almost have a mind of their own. They twitch and flick and move to represent her mood; if they’re pinned back she’s angry, if they’re straight up she’s alert, if her tail is low she’s sad, etc. Reading a children’s book is harder than reading her.
✦ Cat-Like Habits || Other than her ears and tail, Tigress tends to do many cat like things. She spend a lot of her spare time either training or napping in warm patches of sun. She can growl, hiss, snarl, and roar exactly like that of a tiger. She tends to rub up against things she owns or likes. Even though she’ll never say it, she loves having her ears scratched and her belly rubbed.

| History |
“My life is… confusing. Growing up with an extra set of ears and a tail isn’t as awesome as you might think. I was constantly picked on, bullied, and excluded. There were the occasional kids who got curious… but I scared them all off eventually. I was an only child, so I didn’t have anyone near my age to talk to. My parents were always… distant. It was almost as if they were afraid of me too.
So I pretty much grew up raising myself. It was lonely… but I feel like I learned so much more than I ever would have if my parents tried to influence me. We were good on the whole money aspect of things, so whenever I wanted something, my parents would give it to me. I asked for martial arts lessons and they complied. But they never went to any of my matches. I would walk to and from practice. The only person who regularly kept conversation with me was my Sensei.
That was about it, really. That was my life… my childhood. But one day, when a bully got too into my face, I lashed out. I probably scarred him for life… I heard my parents talking later that day… They were discussing declawing me… removing my tail and ears. I was horrified. They spoke of me as if I was just some weird house cat. I called them out on it, and they said that they were joking. Joking?
That wasn’t too long ago. I got the letter to the school and immediately accepted it. I wanted to get as far away from these people as I could.
And now I’m going to the most prestigious school in America. I… I just want to learn to control it. My inner monster, clawing at my mind and tearing me inside out. And I hate myself for it. I can’t stop..."
