History;;
Chess was more of an enigma around Wonderland and less of an actual being, people would talk about him but rarely to him, not even bothering to learn his real name they all just referred to him as The Cheshire Cat, mostly because he tended to avoid people and disappear, having more fun playing pranks and confusing them with his riddles and words. Everything in Wonderland was always the same, tea parties with the Mad Hatter and the March Hare, some of the only people he could stand to be around, but maybe it was because they were just as crazy as he once that it almost made him feel normal.
He went about the motions everyday, bored and wanting to have some fun. So he decided to do something no one in Wonderland dared to do, he was going to play a prank on the Queen of Hearts. It was so harmless he had forgotten what he'd done until the guards managed to catch him and he was in front of the queen. She was so angry as she screamed on and on about her roses and how he had destroyed them, honestly he hardly cared at all.
He only paid attention once the Queen threatened to behead him, then he was in survival mode. He somehow managed to convince the queen to spare him in exchange for his undying loyalty and to report on anything new in Wonderland to her before anyone else, do her bidding, and anything else she asked of him. Honestly it added just enough adventure and suspense in his life to keep him satisfied.
One day a mysterious girl appeared in wonderland and of course he played his tricks on her and gave her directions before he quickly vanished to tell the queen all about it. After that he stayed hidden but watched the blonde girl, something about him perplexed him, maybe it was the thought of there being more than wonderland out there for him somewhere and he watched to see how to get there. Or maybe it was just sheer boredom. Eventually the blonde left and when Chess tried to follow he couldn’t he was stuck in Wonderland. After that he gave up on the thought of anything else, resigned to his fate he fell further into madness, becoming worse, on top of it he began to grow darker and darker in nature, no longer caring about the things he formally cared for.
At some point Chess met another cat in Wonderland, she intrigued him enough to pursue her, but when things got serious he did what he does best and vanished. It wasn’t until the queen got ahold on her for something small, she kidnapped her and his kid, sentencing the girl to death, Chess was left with this kid he suddenly needed to be responsible for. The Queen thought the whole ordeal was hilarious and kept his son as a kind of pet, forcing Chess to stick around the castle, keeping an eye on them while still being his kooky and aloof self.
Chess was in the middle of scolding his kid and when he thought he heard the queen he vanished, when he reappeared he was no longer in Wonderland, he was in some strange town, he looked different, no longer pink, furry, and striped. In fact he looked more like Alice or the Queen. AS most would be confused and scared he was excited, he had a feeling this would be the best adventure of his life.
