PHYSICAL INFORMATION
@(*#&#$ I don't want anyone to know any of this!
Race: Kelvic
Birthday: Day 40 of Winter. This is the Mizaharian equivalent to January 9th, which makes her a Capricorn. Does she behave like a Capricorn? No, no she does not.
Age: 4.5
Physical Description
Diamond Rat is grubby and urchin-like, almost boyish (except for the boobies). She has brown hair and brown eyes, and is prone to being knocked around because she inherited the one most useless trait from her animal form: Hollow bones. She's short and the opposite of stout. It's possible to dress her up, but Rat would rather not and say she did.
Rat's animal form is a suspiciously plain house sparrow.
CHARACTER CONCEPT
I'm a magical escaping bird girl CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP 8<
Personality: It's in Rat's magical heritage to seek out leadership and companionship. Bafflingly, Rat is aware of how tiny and vulnerable she is. It hurts, because she would love to be in a family or have a job. That's not possible because everyone in the world wants to eat her! Can you blame her for being defensive? Rat tries to scare people off by cursing and acting tough. This is not successful. Even rats intimidate her, and she frequently chats with them to figure out where people will or won't be at certain points.
Ethics: Hardly any! Faith-based morality is pfft right out, because Rat can't stand the thought of regular people looking at her funny, much less an invisible majestic eyeball thingie in heaven. She will, however, trade information for bits of food or coin and vice versa. Fair's fair!

Character History:
Pre-Creation: Rat grew up in fresh-smelling pine branches, knotholes, and tiny cabins, among Kelvic bird-people, a few nomads, and regular birds in the snowy north. Being chased by dozens of eagles, falcons, raccoons, dogs, wolves, foxes, cats, humans, and other large beings of doom over the seasons have contributed to her current neuroses. They are a set of fears common to every songbird she knows.
One day, Marina fell in love with a boy, and followed him all the way to Avanthal. The boy named her 'Diamond Rat.' Not the nicest nickname. Rat fell out of love with him and ran away, only to realize she didn't know the way home. She returned to Avanthal. Rat seems to fare the best as a sparrow picking sesame seeds off of bagels when no one's looking. She usually hangs around Frostfawn Hold, begging for food, although she is not considered anyone's official companion there.
Post-Creation: Diamond Rat had the worst birthday ever days after being...forcibly abandoned by the boy she wanted to bond with. She got tangled in Talhar's hair due to her hungered indiscretion.
Diamond Rat struck up an uneasy friendship with a snow leopard Kelvic named Nidassasyae Iskedarst after getting lost in the city of Avanthal. A few days later, she shared a meal with an enormous friendly polar bear Kelvic named Viktor. During the Great Departure festival of Fall 510, Diamond Rat found her stride stealing bits and pieces of things, but was thwarted by a mean sparrow.
