Joannah/Introduction

Born in Britain, she was a pre-P-Day biology teacher. She was a bit impulsive and playful, so she was perfect for the 12 to 15 year olds, an age-group she loved teaching. Coming on a schooltrip to America changed everything for her however.

She had no idea what was going on as during her trip her students, 25 14 year olds, were suddenly torn to pieces by unseen forces and completely disintegrated right before her eyes. She started to scream and run, but soon found her body shrinking and changing as she ran away. When she looked behind her she noticed she had suddenly gained a tauric backside, fur and was probably under 3 foot tall. Her traumatized and exhausted mind at that point basically shut down and all she could do was run as far away as she could. And from then on, that's all she did. For days, weeks, months, years she was shut inside her mind she has no idea for how long this lasted, trying not to think and push the images as far away as possible. During that time she also didn't seem to meet anyone that seemed to have retained their mind, she started to think she may be the only one that had retained any form of resemblance to sanity.

Having to survive in such a hostile environment with her mind shattered as it was, because of having seen her students killed in front of her, she had to depend on her instincts and had to embrace them. They however were cat instincts and embracing them also meant she started to act more catlike over time, combined with her impulsive behavior it was a recipe for disaster. Often chasing smaller objects, going after shining things and getting completely lost in the process and not being able to find her way back the her previous hiding place and having to make a new one.There were a few times when she had to fight her way out of an encounter with a feral, but mostly she kept out of their way, usually by hiding in any available Point Zero in whichever city she moved to.

Once she reached the Fairhaven Point Zero she was noticed by a researcher, due to the fact that usually ferals avoid the area, and she certainly wasn't one of the people that normally venture there. She was quickly captured by a Zephyr researcher for study. Due to her small size and unusually non-feral behavior she was an ideal test subject for the man. She was kept locked up in a cage and experimented on for a long time. He even installed a NICE into her head and abused her in various ways. During a particularly bad session she snapped, latched onto his chest and burrowed straight through him, killing him. Afterwards she and several other test subjects escaped. The Zephyr higher-ups, having read through the man's research notes decided not to pursue the escaped test subjects since they have suffered enough.

After having regained most of her mind she was taken in by the Promethians, but she quickly went her own way, not really wanting to bother with factions and groups. She still has very strong nostalgic feelings towards Point Zeroes and often travels to them to be in the strange twisted atmosphere.

Due to her tiny size and the amount of time spend in the wilds, she has forsaken clothing. Mainly because anything other than a napkin wouldn't fit her and she's become so used to being naked that she now finds clothing to be too restricting.

She also has a tendency to hide under couches or snooze on the backrest. She has a playful character due to her cat instincts and can usually be lured out of a hiding place by a wagging tail or other such item.

She may act like a cat and can sometimes be treated like one, but she is very intelligent and knows about her instincts being as prominent as they are, but like most cats, it doesn't matter to her and she quickly loses interest in worrying about it, this is probably also due to her mental trauma, as she tends to push negative memories as far away as possible and quickly forgets they even happened.

Even though it may be strange considering that she's a cattaur, she's a vegetarian.
