I went back and finished a save of a character I made long ago, named Peahen. She's the brown bengal and I think I'm happy with her story! She formed the Wild Ravine Alliance and settled the colony in a somewhat naturally formed quarry/gorge/ravine area that has two streams flowing in it. The shape of the streams were different before, although one heavy rainstorm made them thicker and more fast flowing, causing alliance to try and move flat peices of stones in order to create a sort of bridge between areas. (I originally had the layout somewhat different, but I altered it to make it better to my liking and coincidentally, a storm did occur after!)
Her best friends and closest companions at the start were Elli and Jag, who supported her and granted her encouragement to ensure the alliance were at home in the Wildwood. Elli, whose positive and cheerful attitude helped her get through the doubts, and Jag, whose steadfast nature and dedication to protecting their home proved they were all doing the right thing. Although as more recruits came by, she also found a friend in Champ, Rosemary, and Phantom.
I consider Peahen to be more... serious and hardworking, often going out to hunt and fight off the voidling cats when there were battles to be fought, but as she spent more time in camp making rounds to talk to and get to know the alliance's recruits, she opened up more and became socialable. Though she's one to avoid the spotlight, as leader she can't really escape it. And even less so as she spent more and more time with Zephyr, a known celebrity who was regularly graced with cats' attention.
Zephyr had in turn elevated Peahen from her standoffish and busy nature, and as they buddied up and frolicked across meadows, the beach, and climbed the beautiful alpine wilderness, it was only a matter of time until Peahen collected a red rose for Zephyr. Which was accepted and I like to imagine that Zephyr fashioned it into an accessory for Peahen to wear, hence the red rose accessory she has! (Courtesy of the Herb Mod!)
As time passed, Peahen had learned a lot more dramatic flair from Zephyr and decided the perfect time to propose was one spring sunset, where the setting sun's light turned the camp's rivers a lovely romantic shade of pink and a light shower was occuring. Soon after, they welcomed in a litter of four kittens to the Wild Ravine Alliance, Rowan, Sora, Clove, and Autumn!
Long post, but it's fun to create a story in mind with the saves and see what game occurences can translated to backstory/lore!
