Nicknames: Wes (or Wes-Newsman)
Age: 126
Gender: Trans Male
Species: Kelahati
Abilities: He can shift between his cat form and his human form. He has an affinity for cats and can communicate with them effortlessly. He is incredibly charismatic and can sway the public with his words. He is incredibly lucky. Adept at Sanshou (or the Antarsia version)
Appearance:
Cat form: A medium sized, short-haired, black cat with two perfectly circular white spots on each ear. His ears are large stick upwards instead of sideways, like other cats with big ears. His eyes are green and upturned, elongated for an almost fox-like look. He has a long face (think the Oriental breed), and a long tail.
People form: He's 6' tall, with a wiry build. The hair on his head is short and black, his ears are large cat ears that stick up instead of sideways, and are black with perfectly circular white spots. His face is long, his mouth wide, with full lips. He has a heart-shaped face, high cheekbones and upturned, elongated green monolid eyes. He is light-skinned (pantone 70-7C) with brown undertones and the ability to tan under the sun instead of burn. He has long limbs, and long, elegant fingers. His nails are perfectly manicured. His teeth are white, with elongated canines and black gums. His tongue is long and rough, like a cat's. He has a broad bridged nose, with the triangular nose of a cat which is darker brown than the rest of his face. He has regular hands and feet, no claws, and no tail. Besides the cat features in his face, he is, for all intents and purposes got the body of a regular human of similar height and build. He has thin top surgery scars and a thin scar down the middle of his abdomen just under his navel.
Personality: He's considered a funny man by those that like his humor. All other people think he is incredibly facetious and has no place running a newspaper. He has a good sense of humor, no matter what anyone says, and tends to take everything he's told with a grain of salt. Genial, Wes is likely to give someone the benefit of the doubt before becoming aloof. He has several cat tendencies that carry over into his behavior as a humanoid. He likes knocking things off edges, sitting on freshly cleaned laundry, being pampered and scent-marking things. Granted, he does curb these behaviors around strangers and business partners. He's incredibly candid, and has no problem with telling people like it is, but because he's incredibly social, he knows there are times to be candid and times to hold back. When he is angry with someone, he bristles visibly, and gives a warning growl should they approach him. Disliked people are met with the cold shoulder, and Wes distancing himself as best he can. When someone can't take a hit, they find themselves laid out on the floor. He is a lightning fast striker, and can kick powerfully. Incredibly acrobatic, he can sometimes be found in bone breaking positions. He likes to climb and run and can be found jogging when not assembling the day's news or performing. He prefers eggs and shrimp to just about any food, but won't turn down any meats. He is not fond of cheese, but appreciates cream in small doses.
History: Born and raised in Yfrelo, he's seen at least two generations of humans grow within its walls. At an early age, he was a busybody, learning all about the city's news, wanting to be in on all the freshest news. He quickly became known for his sense of humor, and started a paper with a humorous, but fair slant on daily events. Friendly with all the neighborhood cats, they are ultimately his sources. His parents were a constant source of strength and support for him. Though they moved to a warmer clime, he visits them on holiday and frequently exchanges letters with them. His mother is obsessed with his love-life, hoping he meets "somebody nice". His father is obsessed with his business, wanting to know how he is faring what with competition and all.
He started transitioning when he was an adolescent with the help of a friend at the mage's college. Through his paper, he earned enough to fund a trip to Katakarthia where he visited a famous angel surgeon by the name of Naasir. It was there he got his top surgery and total abdominal hysterectomy done. After his recovery period of almost four months, he started up his paper again.
When a certain human ran for City Leader, he was one of the first newspapers to back the man. He coined the term Winning Smile, for the City Leader Graham, and because of his favorable coverage, was endorsed for his troubles. This means he gets official statements from City Hall first and fresh from the mouth of the source.
He spends his days now doing weekly shows at the local theater stage and vetting his journalist's articles for the day's paper.
