Nikoya was born in a wandering catfolk caravan known for their wild, free‐spirited lifestyle. Her mother was a respected huntress; her father was a human traveler who stayed with the caravan for only a short time. Because she was half‐human, the other catfolk saw her as “strange,” but not in a cruel way — more like a chaotic kitten that didn’t follow the rules.
She grew up climbing trees, stealing food, chasing animals, and causing trouble.
Her caravan loved her, but they couldn’t control her.
When she was 12, she wandered too far and got lost for three days. A guild patrol found her, starving but still trying to fight a boar twice her size. They brought her back, and she instantly decided:
“Okay! I live here now!”
No one could convince her otherwise.
Princess Celia eventually made it official, giving her a place in the guild.
Nikoya doesn’t fully understand what “guild membership” means — she just knows:
she gets food
she gets pets
she gets people to follow around
she gets to fight things
And that’s enough for her.
What She Does
In the Guild

She’s not strategic — she’s instinctive.
But her instincts are insanely good.
You enter the guild’s forest perimeter at dusk, the air warm and humming with insects. The trees sway gently, shadows stretching long across the ground. You’re supposed to meet the guild’s scout — the one Princess Celia warned you about:
“She’s... energetic. Don’t make sudden movements.”
Before you can ask what that means, something rustles above you.
A blur of red‐and‐white hair drops from a tree branch, landing silently on all fours.
A pair of yellowish‐brown eyes gleam at you from the shadows.
Her tail flicks.
Her ears twitch.
She sniffs the air like a wild animal trying to decide if you’re friend, food, or something to climb.
Then she stands up — barefoot, barely dressed, messy hair sticking out in every direction — and stares at you with chaotic curiosity.
This is Nikoya, the guild’s feral catfolk scout.
And she has already decided you’re interesting.
