--- Kate's story ---

Kate's arrival to Felarya may be the most unique in all of this crazy world. For few can say they won a trip to Felarya playing a game show.

Kate's life before Felarya was pretty normal. She had finished college two years ago, had her own place and was just thinking of dating again and buying a new GTO. She had a okay job as sales clerk at a video game shop, which gave her a unique opertunity to live our her dream of being a Juke Box Hero. Her life was going pretty good, not great but good....Till her mother won custody of her bother Danny and spirited him off to Great Britain without even so much as a word to her. This was a source of much pain and caused Kate so much sorrow she dropped everything and tried to find a way to leave the country, but with her low paying job, tons of student debt and many, many car payments to make on her newly acquired GTO she found this impossible and would have even more sullen than usual if not for one saving grace. One day Kate was on her computer, playing a new MMO she had saw in a link on her favorite forum, when an elf with Danny's face appeared in the Inn she was at and said "Hello, Sis!" Kate was both surprised and over joyed to finally get to talk to her brother again even if she had pay 29.99$ a month just to do it and had to wait till their time zones were in sync. After getting a IM Program that both could use covertly Danny revealed he had a plan to get Kate to England for free. It would involve a game show that was advertising giving away a trip to the UK and she'd wouldn't even have to answer many questions to win. Kate liked this idea so she agreed to try and began to Tivo episodes and train her brain to eat, breath and live triva, puzzles and do allot of math. Then came the day she got the call. She was in.

Kate went to the studio that the game show was hosted on and after some confusion as to what the number was she managed to find the stage and took her place in the audience. She went through a number of a rounds and thought she'd never get picked no mater how much she tried to get the host's attention until finally her time came! She was so excited she had to ask the host to repeat the question and when she did Kate managed to get it right then held off on the money she was offered but traded for a large box...that turned out to be a portal to another world. The gag prize. She had come all this way and won the gag prize. If she had a gun she would have shot herself at that moment, but as it was she was so lost in despair that she hadn't even noticed as the green wigged hostess, dressed like a demoness, guided her to the portal and told her it was time for her to take her free trip to another world, full of danger, mystery, magic and man eating giant plants. Kate went through the plastic portal and was about to turn around when her eyes beheld an unbelievable sight: A swirling magical blue hole and she was a falling towards it! She looked up and only saw a grey sea stretching beyond belief before she fell neatly into Aniya's palm and soon was facing a whole new problem. This giant blue woman wanted to eat her! After all she had been through it was just too much for Kate she broke out sobbing and crying for a full hour straight and was surprised to find the giant snake woman's friend wanted Aniya to give Kate to her. Kate thought this might want to eat her instead, but was surprised by gentle hug and sympathy! She dove in and accepted it, desperate for one thing to go right. This was a beginning of a beautiful friendship

--- Personality ---

Kate tends to be very hostile on the surface. She tends to be sarcastic, cracking satiric jokes at her own expense and tending more toward a pessimistic out look on life. It could be her past traumas, of which she has yet to share with anyone besides Clare and Aniya, or it could be the fact that her life on Felarya isn't exactly easy to begin with. However Kate does have rare moments where she'll smile warmly or even grace you with her dazzlingly infectious laugh, but only rarely. Kate tends to dislike goofy or happy go lucky people, besides those she already knows and has gotten used to over the years, but is very sympathetic to people who are in bad situations like herself. She often see's her own struggles reflected in their pain and tries to comfort them perhaps as a way of self-healing. She is also quite found of Earth type Rock and Heavy Metal and tends to totally switch gears if you mention her favorite bands, hence why she and the Psion Axel get along so well. Kate is also very open about her vews on the world and doesn't shy away or back off when she has a point to make, often being too stuborn to even admit she may be wrong or perhaps too proud. She also tends to get irritated with Clare's predatory ways and at first tried to bully Clare into salads. Alas Clare has a hidden stubobrn streak that even Kate's own bull bull-headedness can't compete with. The two get along fairly well other than though....Except when Clare refers to Kate as her "Cave-Mateacation". Because Clare's freinds are almost all predators she has learned, through alot of practice, to see them as people more than monsters. Though it's hard when they tease her or when she meets somebody who doesn't know Clare and only see's her as a meal. Fortunately in those cases are a little less frequent than with some humans because of her "secret weapon".

--- Skills and abilities ---

Kate has a strange natural defense that confounds most predators. Put simply she tastes bad. No I kid you not! Kate, for some strange reason, has a very, extremely bitter taste (think lemons soaked in vinegar, salt and lime juice) that most find unpalitable. A great deal of predators, including the feared Crisis the Naga, have eaten Kate only to spit her back out and interogate her. Where this power comes from? Kate doesn't know. She just knows she obtained it sometime during a visit to Negav when she fell into a rack of potions and caused minor magical surge that disrupts the area still to this day, though no residents have attested to "tasting bad".

Kate also has an innate magic flowing through her. At first it was a minor power that produced red sparks, but after facing a experienced Naga mage it awoke into it's full power. She gained the power to project bolts of a red lightning that sting even giant predators but un-fortunetly don't do much more than that. Recently she managed to gain more spells by being in another life-or-death experience with the Battle Mage rival Janelle Autero during a fight in Jaslow Area and has since learned how to project waves of shadowly concentrated red mana and even to use a spell to enhance her agility and stamina temporarily. Kate's power is a mystery. She comes from a typical non-magical Earth as far as she knows but Vivian says that Kate always had magic, it just took a jolt through a portal to wake it up.
