Cato

Cat Folk of Variety

Port cities bustle with the movement of goods and people, everything constantly on the move as ships ebb and flow like the sea. Here, colorful shades of fur pass by in blurs while pleasantries are shouted to others with the hint of a gruff purr. While others will head out with the ships and have their coats drip with seawater, the more colorful of the Felines will remain on land, keeping the logistics of trade and voyages in order.   Cato are the most varied of the Felines, with different colors and lifestyles that set them apart from their brethren. Instead of choosing a life on the open sea, they instead dedicate themselves to logistics and making the most of the naval trade that the other Felines tend to participate in. Of all the Felines, Cato dislike the water the most, but still choose professions and lives that aid the purpose of their race.

Basic Information

Anatomy

All Felines share anatomical traits with Humans with some major differences. Felines have fur and tails as well as sharp teeth and claws that allow them to hunt or deal damage. They also have increased eyesight and a great sense of both smell and hearing.   The Cato vary slightly from other Felines as they are the only ones of the Felines that can be polydactyl. While a common birth defect, it is unknown if this causes any special abilities.   Common Colorations
Cato vary widely in color, often having several shades and colors of fur at once. They are by far the most varied in their colorations, with their colors often matching those of domestic cats that roam the world.

Additional Information

Social Structure

The Cato by far are the most varied of the Felines, not only in their colorations but also in their traits and lifestyles. It is commonly thought that these people are often the "laziest" of the Felines with lackadaisical lifestyles that have no purpose, but this is far from the case. Cato tend to lack the distinct purposes that the other Felines have as demonstrated by their traits, but this does not mean they are lazy or lack purpose.   These people can be found scattered throughout the world, but are most often found in port towns or on the island of Timil. While they may not choose the sea life that other Felines do as Sailors, Cato are often strategists or those that are in charge of logistics relating to their people's naval trade. Their roles are critical to the workings of their exports, without ever leaving land.

Love the idea that they have discovered that working in logistics means they don't have to leave dry land. XD
