questions about your yellow cat:
what made you choose a abyssinian cat for their species?
what does your yellow cat act like?
what does your yellow cat do in the cult?
what are their relationships like?
I love your questions ty so much these are great !! <3 Got me super inspired to build up Bayo’s character!! (Did end up going with Bayo with Bay for short)
(Little bit of a long post warning!)
Honestly they’re such a unique looking breed that when I was thinking of what breed Bay would be it was my immediate thought! From what I can tell they look and act quite cunning and still quite playful!! Exactly what I was going for
I picture Nari with a Turkish angora look and the two breed look pretty different in shape so it makes it easier to distinguish between them for more sketchy and colorless stuff
And as per the picture: cute brows <3
He’s constantly on his feet and staying busy, sometimes to his own detriment.
Generally pretty friendly and polite, but manners don’t mean they trust you. I like to think they have to have a pretty good understanding of another person to feel comfortable letting their guard down. For that he can seem kinda stiff and impersonal despite being generally pretty kind towards others.
Between being pretty tidy and having suffered quite a loss to sickness, they can’t work in the healing bay and get quite anxious when sickness comes around.
I’ll leave the “ex-spy” thing for another post this is already way too long 😭
Jack of all trades of sorts, but is exceptionally good at scouting and plant care. Particularly fond of working with trees, monitoring growth and rot and general maintenance
Still does a good variety now, but their main task at the moment is keeping an eye on the bishops. Being already cynical it was just natural, but being around them has yielded mixed results
Plan to update with more characters but honestly that’s a later thing I’ll probably never get to
Bayo joined the cult quite early in his life and the Lamb acted as something of a mentor and friend to them. He has full trust in them and their decisions even if he can’t see the reasoning behind them. The Lamb similarly has a lot of trust in him, making him one of their few disciples and having him keep an eye on the newly indoctrinated. Breaks are enforced on occasion lol
Ratau and the Lamb are very familiar and reflect each others personalities, so it’s only natural that Bayo would look at Ratau as a trustworthy person as well. I think they play knuckle bones each time he visits and sit in the same pew during sermons
Narinder was originally one of the bishops they kept an eye on, checking in on him here and there, but after a bit of a misunderstanding escalated into an altercation the Lamb decided to take over for this one. Generally their personalities clash quite a bit, but thankfully Narinder isn’t much of a daywalker so they don’t cross paths often
Bayo has had a hard time reading Leshy. He’s an asshole and rude, but not like his brother with the temper. Seems like he might kill someone if he gets too bored though? But at the same time is totally cool with just chilling with Bay in the fields or his garden. Even went scouting together once
Heket and him have a pretty mutual understanding that as long as she is left alone and has what she needs, he won’t have much issue. Just need space and he can keep an eye from a distance
Kallamar is difficult not out of personality or anything, but in the way they get almost nauseous around him (somewhere between the flu and being seasick). Particularly worrying for Bayo, but no threat to anyone really. They’re fine with all the condescending passive aggressive comments and Kallamar doesn’t seem to mind being monitored
Shamura and Bayo actually have had a few good conversations, a little more philosophical and nerdy they find some common ground. Tho, they keep ending conversations with some unsettling remark that doesn’t really make sense in the given context
As always there’s more but thems the main ones
I’ve been through a bit of a shitstorm ngl
Kinda in the eye of the tornado right now, but ultimately I’m safe, healthy, and financially secure enough ❤️ Thank you for asking and I hope you are well too!! I have really enjoyed thinking these questions over!! :D
