Name: Stubinz
Age: 55-65
Gender:male
Tribe: jelicles
Family:unknown
Appearance: a spindly tan and grey with rust and black stripes
Stubinz only has two toes on his right rear paw and three on his left front. he has numerous scars and half of his tail.
Personality: while not much of a fighter he does have a few surprises. Stubinz has a different story for every day of the week and occasion for his missing body parts. a colorful character who has always been odd it's only getting worse. he regularly has conversations with himself, not talk to himself mind regular single sided conversations. he's clever and a storehouse of information about the city. very useful, if you can get a straight answer out of him. Stubinz is a firm believer in all sorts of wee and fair folk, after all HE talks to ghosts that no one else can see or hear all of the time, so how can he have the nerve to NOT believe in the Wee Folk just because HE can't see them!
he has a rather thick accent, his mother and her human were Irish, his father and his Scottish, which can make talking with him a trial at times.
Defining word: addled
History:
Stubinz is an odd case. he is the pubs cat, he lives in the pub frequented by Gus. Stubinz arranges for the entertainment, food, and drink for the gatherings that are held behind the pub by Gus's "Club". he came to the pub when his human at the time inherited it from her father and his current human inherited him right along with the pub from his mother. Stubinz has seen that the pub's dustbin and other forage ables were managed for the strays so that rather than "feast or famine" they would be available rather like the pub itself was for the humans. after all that's what a pub does, maybe for an hour or a night but they take care of strays. he has kept to the background of the junkyard tribe as he has never cared for politics, look wheare it has gotten the humans! the single most important was witnessing Macavities exile. at times he has been known to offer his brand of...."insight" though often acting very peculiar while he did so telling himself to "shut yer great gob and let me talk!" . he is a mystic, you see Stubinz has always claimed that he is on his ninth life, and being closer to the other side he can see the ghosts and spirits of those who haven't moved on yet. because of an unfortunate habit of including them in conversations with the living, many Cats are of the opinion that Stub has lost his mind and is talking to friends long dead.
but of course remember just because he can hear them doesn't mean they have anything useful to say.
RP Sample: Stubinz stretched as he woke, back popping knees cracking.
as he moved into his alley he cocked his head and glanced to his left.
"well thas just fine, na na ah'm happy that YOUR joints donna ache any more but mine still do!" he said. with a sigh he foraged in the pubs dustbin for left overs, then headed toward the junkyard to share his breakfast.
Comments:
while I have no intention of using this ability to meta game it is a way for you to pass along needed information if we get stuck as to just how the right parties would get it. basically the ability requires no effort because it is ALWAYS ON. he has no control, if they happen to be there then it is literally like someone else being in the room, it just happens that he's the only one who can see or hear them.he can not MAKE them DO anything, and if they'd lie to him in life they'll do it now! likewise the ability can't summon a spirit that isn't already there. and when he communicates he speaks out loud, which is why most people think he's crazy! and by requiring no effort he is even less likely to be believed, he has not a shred of proof! even if the spirit tells him something secret, with his age and knowledge of the city the skeptic will point out that he may have known any way!
one of the greatest trial of his ability is that some times people who have exisively violent natures, especialy those who take great pleasure in their extreames, tend to be followed by at least some of their victims and these spirits will flock around Stubinz if there "host" is near. all DEMANDING attention and decrying their slayer and abuser at the same time! which sadly often results in the old boy being overwhealmed and haveing "fits", which certinly do nothing good for his crediblity or reputation!
