Tantin


This cheetah stands at just slightly under six feet tall, though due to his slightly lanky appearance, seems much taller then that at first glance. His body is lithe and somewhat muscular, and there does not even appear to be a single speck of fat on his whole form. Even the muscle covering is pretty slim, giving his entire body a long, lithe appearance. Thick, deep golden fur covers his form, broken in areas by large black spots that cascade over his body much like freckles. The only other diffrently colored parts of his body is the typical cheetah \"mask\" on his face, and the his ivory white chest, stomach, and tail-tip. His eyes seem to draw attention to them, though...one is a strange, light, icy blue, and the other is a deep emerald green that seems to radiate from within.
For clothing he is currently deck out in a loin-cloth of sorts, the front of it draped down his front to just below his knees, and the back draped down to just a little lower then the back of his knees. There is a small, slitted hole cut in the back of the loin-cloth, allowing free-movement of his four-foot-long fuzzy tail. The rest of his body is left bare, the only other article of \'clothing\' on him being a leather pauldron over his left shoulder, ending just above the elbow, and a leather archer-brace on his right hand and wrist. However, though he wears no other clothing at the moment, there ARE a few other accessories that are interesting. For one, both his ears are peirced with tiny silver hoops, one at the tip of each of his black-topped ears. There are also a few rings in his tail which start at the base of it, near his hips, and continue up it every inch or so untill it just befor the tip of his tail.
He currently carries a longbow a little over half his heigth in length, and a quiver of arrows on his back, the strap crossing over his bare chest. Otherwise, he seems to be weaponless and armorless, except for the rather dull claws on his hands and bare feet.

Background:Tantin's family were never really well-liked...though that is saying nothing about the charismatic young feline, himself. Helpful, lovable, snugable, and just about anything else you could think of, he is quite an...interesting...fella. Of course, he, and his family, are quite possibly the most unlucky bunch of felines in the world. If there is a storm, gaurenteed one is going to get struck by lightning...whether there is lightning or not. If there is a root anywhere in the road to trip over, someone will trip over it. If there is a fire going, it is nearly positive that a spark will get caught in someone's fur...and Tantin is no exception. Possibly the un-luckiest cat around.
Misc Info:There is nothing at all special about this cat...he is as average as can be. However, his bow is a whole 'nother matter. It...is the cause of his un-luckiness. Regular in every sense...except it makes its weilder extremly un-lucky. However, another slight enchantment...it wants its weilder to live. It might get him into a situation that he cannot get out of...IE, a hundred foot snake's coils...but it would never let him die. Untill the enchantment runs its course, that is...
