Character

Personality

Cat is creative, altruistic and sometimes a goofball. She’s a terrible cook, but a dedicated friend and will always be there if people need her help. She volunteers at the soup kitchen in St. Denis with her brother Colin and always thinks about helping others. She is very determined to self-improve and can sometimes be overly idealistic or unrealistic about her goals. She puts a lot of pressure on herself to live up to the ideals that she sets for herself and can get burnt out easily when putting the needs of others before herself. She often raises money for charity when she can and tries to help people, sometimes putting them before herself. Cat is quite sensitive and she takes things to heart, she can be stubborn and also can hold grudges for a long time when her trust has been broken. She wears her heart on her sleeve, all the same though and tries to stay honest and open with people even if it is the difficult thing to do.

Appearance

Cat has long blonde hair, green eyes and freckles on her nose. Her facial features are soft, she is 5’7 and has a slim body type. She wears practical, comfortable clothing and will often wear her brother’s old knit hat as well as her father’s gun belt.

Relationships

• Colin Carver

Catriona’s hero. Colin is Cat’s favourite sibling and she will always respect him and look up to him. As kids, he would always look out for her and they have a close bond. Cat wants to make Colin proud and live up to her childhood nickname “Can-do-Cat” and bring a can-do attitude to everything she tries. Colin pretty much raised Cat, looking out for her but helping her be independent too. Cat trusts Colin's judgement above all else and trusts that whatever he chooses to do, his heart will be in the right place.

Cat hopes that Colin can teach her some skills like smithing and hunting more. She hopes to do him proud by practicing each day. Colin is a determined, steady and humble figure in her life and she admires him for that.

If anyone disregards or disrespects Colin, especially in earshot of Cat, they will find her usually warm demeanour will turn into the form of a cold shoulder. Cat is stubborn and takes perceived insult very seriously when it comes to the reputation of her family. People will have to do a lot of legwork to build up trust again if they slight her by speaking bad about Colin.

• Jamie Marlow

Jamie Marlow is a pillar of strength, moral virtue and emotional support in Cat’s eyes. She really admires Jamie’s outlook on life and her desire to do good in the world. Colin's opinion of Jamie influenced Cat a lot when he spoke highly of her and said that she was "one of the good ones" when referring to the law. Since then, Cat has grown to know Jamie for her softer side and has come to know who she is as a person; not just an LEO.

When they spend time together they talk about their hopes for the world and how they can help it become better. They appreciate the small details of nature together and see the world in a similar way. They constantly improve themselves whilst supporting each other. Cat has grown to see Jamie as someone she trusts in completely; even learning to swim with Jamie just so she could take her on a canoe trip. Jamie is extremely tolerant of Cat’s beliefs and accepts her even though they don’t share a religion. Cat accepts Jamie and appreciates her world view and wouldn’t change that.

Jamie is someone that represents Cat’s truest morals in the crossing and Cat hopes she will never disappoint her. She has great trust in the law as a result of Jamie in particular. Jamie is a capable and skilled LEO and Cat trusts that Jamie can protect herself, this also strives Cat to want to improve her own skills so that she can give Jamie the same confidence she has in her. Cat trusts her wholly and will do anything she can to make her smile.
