Iraja

Iraja's been a wanderer for as long as he can remember. The youthful-looking cheetah can't remember anything about his parents, or a home, or anything but the nomadic lifestyle he now leads.

This doesn't bother him, though; the lifestyle suits him quite nicely (although he has a nasty habit of stealing things and getting in trouble...though he never really takes more than he needs. Unless it's really shiny.). He's had several homes offered to him, but he never stays for more than a few days...he gets too restless, and soon returns to his endless wandering.

The truth is, Iraja is the physical incarnation of a wind spirit. He doesn't know it, however! As for why he's on the physical plane rather than the plane of spirits...who knows? As far as Iraja is concerned, he's just a normal cheetah-boy. Well, except for a certain quirk.

Iraja is very, very fast. Yes, he's a cheetah, but now and then, he can leave even experienced older cheetahs in the dust! He's able to run so fast, he's a barely-visible blur, though he cannot maintain that speed for long, and cannot do it at will...it's almost reflexive. He does have the stamina to run at the top speed of a normal cheetah for quite a long time, however, and this, he *can* control.

Being relatively small and slim, Iraja would normally be easy prey...were it not for his speed. It's pretty much impossible to catch him in a chase, or by most normal methods...but, well, he's still a young adult male, and thus, he's *VERY* susceptible to seduction, from males or females. Once seduced, he's an easy meal. If the predator is nice about it, he might even be a willing meal next time!

He is capable of swallowing people his own size, but he is...not very good at it. Plus, when he DOES manage it, they weigh him down so much that he can't run, and he generally gets really antsy if he can't run. Thus, he'll generally only eat someone large if he's sure he'll be safe in the meantime.

Micros, though, are a different story. They're tasty, and small enough that they won't impede his movement...And he LOVES the wiggling! Of course, being a rather hormonal young adult, he also enjoys feeling micro-squirms against (or inside) other parts of him...

-Physical appearance-

Iraja is 5'1", and quite sleek, with a toned, trim body. His body is covered in short, smooth, tan fur, with black spots dotting most of it. The spots continue down his long tail, before merging into four black rings near, and at, the tip. His front, from his chest down to his groin, is spotless, and the fur is white; it's also slightly 'fluffier'.

His hair brown, and kept rather spiky and messy, with a ponytail in back.

His eyes are golden, and from the corners, he's got black stripes leading downwards, crossing over his mouth before ending.

As for clothes, he generally wears a simple outfit, consisting of an open leather vest and a tattered, knee-length loincloth. Beneath the loincloth, he wears simple leather underwear. He also occasionally wears hand and ankle-wraps, mainly because he thinks they look cool. When he's not barefoot, he wears a pair of fairly worn sandals.

Iraja can also be played in a more 'modern' city setting, rather than the tribal, savannah-esque setting. In this, he's still superpowered, but lives in, well, a city, and tends to wear jogging shorts, a tank top and sneakers (he goes barefoot less often in this setting)
