Background:

Born to a lower middle class family on Corellia, K`Tir's parents were killed in the crossfire between two rival gangs when she was a little kitten. Only ten years old, the girl was knocked out and remembered nothing when she woke up. After spending a year on the streets fighting rival orphans for survival, she met Tabby Caprian, and the two girls became fast friends. It was also about that time that she acquired her nickname (and later alias) "Kat". Growing up together both felines were found they were struck with typical Corellian Spacer's Syndrome.

When Kat was seventeen, she worked her way into a smuggling group. They found she was a quick student and natural at piloting, and one of the older members of the ring took it upon himself to further her education. She worked with that group for two years before they abandoned her in the middle of botched CorSec raid on their warehouse. Kat escaped the conflict with only the clothes on her back. After that Kat had made up her mind she would never get involved or dependant on one particular person or group. She was a hard win and a hard sell, but she was good at what she did. She worked odd jobs and contracted herself out as a pilot until she was able to afford her own ship. Kat then left to make her own living at smuggling and transport, taking anyone anywhere and almost carrying almost anything.

She spent years bouncing from one job to another, working freelance for whoever would pay. She was quick with her mind and her blaster, she developed a reputation for being unnervingly lucky. Those who had worked with her for long periods of time noticed she seems to be almost intuitive when in personal danger, which, for the life of a spacer, could be any point when not in hyperspace on one's own ship. Then again, life always does take interesting turns.

Physical Appearance:

Kat is a white furred Corellian domestic feline with a black tipped tail. She is blonde haired and green eyed, standing approximately 5'6" tall and 120 lbs.

Character Notes:

A bit of a spaz, Kat can seem somewhat scatterbrained when she's not in a life-threatening situation. However, when the occasion calls for it she can be intensely focused and singleminded in her purpose.
