Personality: 

Jamak: King of Cats

Dashing, quick and clever, the King of Cats embodies both the bright works of Rahjah and the dark charm of Cahlash. Although most Bastet follow one aspect or the other, very few realize that both spirits are one and the same — a rogue who does good deeds even as he violates good conduct. Some see the King of Cats as the first of their kind, the one who saved Seline from the Asura; others believe he’s an avatar of both Father spirits. Whatever his origins, the King of Cats is a dapper fellow with a sharp sword and a razor wit. Although his dress changes to suit the occasion, he seems to prefer swashbuckler trappings. Though he turns feline if need be (sometimes white, often black), the King of Cats prefers to dance around in human guise, daring enemies to harm him. He is the soul of valiant rebellion, and favors those who live and die with style.

• Favors: Allies of the King of Cats receive the Grace Merit and a permanent point of Dexterity if they live by his codes: Play hard, laugh at death, and go out with a flourish. He can teach any Bastet Gift, but seldom does.
• Ban: The King of Cats will not tolerate a sober disposition. If one of his allies falls into depression or morbidity, he abandons her to find another.

The Yava:

• The Ceilican fear the touch of cold iron. It burns them like a brand.
• Reciting a Ceilican's name backwards three times causes them discomfort; recite it six times and they will die.
• The sound of a silver bell or a church hymn strikes a Ceilican deaf for three days after.

The Karoush: There is a code of conduct among the Bastet known as 'the Karoush', and it's basic principles are as follows:

• Honor Yourself
• Honor Your Word
• Honor Your Kin and Kind
• Honor Your Earth
• Honor Your Silence

History:

Born to two Feline servants of the Fae of Arcadia, Stormy Seas Dreaming never saw the sea until she finally had a chance to flee Arcadia. She hid, disguising herself as a large Maine Coon cat, and she began to explore her new freedom. Educated enough by the Fae that she could appreciate the English and Gaelic languages, Stormy Seas Dreaming has been a theater cat, a musician's companion, a thief's prized possession, an astronomer's friend, and a library mascot. But her newest life is as a ship's cat. A ship owned by a vampire named Alessandro Romero.

Seeking the vampires' company had been a last resort for her. Always, she was pursued by the Fae and so she had to keep moving. But, she's tired of running, and the vampire who "adopted" a large stray Maine Coon is as territorial as he is ruthless. Alessandro's childe, Daniel, is fond of his cat, even if he doesn't know what she truly is, and he would never let anything happen to her. Which is just fine, in her eyes.

Sealink, as she is called by Daniel, prefers to maintain her Maine Coon disguise as much as possible. How long she can maintain the deception around three territorial and highly paranoid vampires is anyone's guess. So far, she's made it three years and counting.
