Name: Sleetfang (Sleet)
Age: 28
Gender: Female
Species: ferret
Marital Status: Single mother...hehe
Position and Home: Up until recently Sleet worked solo as an assassin and mercenary. She still preforms a few odd jobs but does not take the risks she once did. She is occasionally a thief (when something pretty catches her eye), a producer and inventor of her own weapons, she is more often hired to make high quality unique blades. Above all else she has become somehow extremely maternal. She has two different residents, one in a fort near the shore and one in a small village near the Redwall Abbey. She doesn't spend much time in either, and is usually traveling about and staying where she can.
Strengths: She is extremely skilled with blades, of nearly all kinds. Her favored weapons are twin short blades and throwing knives, both of which she carries nearly all of the time. She is also very clever, she is true to her species and can worm her way out of nearly any bad circumstances.
Weaknesses: Sleet has a large extended family and tends to worry about their wellbeing, when they are brought into a conflict it can cause her to become quite useless. She has a very deep fear of fire as well. Sometimes she acts extremely irrationally.
Also Sleet has a mouse allergy (yes, you heard me right) they make her stuffy and sometimes will cause her to have a sneezing fit. She carries a black scarf to tie over her muzzle and nose if she needs to be in close proximity to one for a prolonged amount of time.
Alignment: Bad- has a tendency to be against EVERYONE, at least a first.
Appearance: Her fur is light gray with darker gray and black on her paws, ears, tail and nose. She is slightly petite with a shorter then average build. She is missing about half of her left ear and her tail seems oddly short.
Her weapons are very important to her and extremely high quality and beautifully made. She carries a varying number of throwing knives which work as her longer range weapons and two twin short swords, they are based off of swords she found in the south and have a slight curve to them.
Personality: Sleet is classically ferret. She is clever, curious and sneaky. She sometimes acts foolishly and without giving thought to her actions and can become restless very easily. She is a bit of an ill tempered creature. She never makes a good first impression because of her generally snappy and standoffish nature. She is sarcastic, rude and stubborn but also quite humorous and finds great enjoyment in entertaining herself while angering others. She holds strong biases agaisnt certain creatures.
Sleets morals are what what some would consider extremely distorted. This mainly stems from her history. Her childhood self is continually confused and blown away by the cruelty around her, this leads her to be on occasion unbelievably noble. The part of her that grew up within a horde is just the opposite. It is the cruelty in her, the part that stirs her deepest anger and pushes her to kill savagely without consideration. Thrown in with slight self loathing she is a somewhat misunderstood beast. She hates most beasts who consider themselves 'good', if she hears anyone refers to her as 'vermin' she immediately initiates a fight. She hates and disrespects horde beasts, it takes a very particular beast to get on Sleet's good side. The reason she has few close friends.
If one such beast is able to get beyond her spikey outer layer Sleet is an oddly compassionate ferret with some. She is fiercely loyal with her friends and family and quick to act on behalf of somebody else. Once someone has rubbed her the wrong way she doesn't take kindly to them at all. She holds a strong bias agaisnt certain creatures and groups and does not hesitate to remember a grudge.
History: Sleet was born under a different name, in a far northern village compiled of ferrets and weasels. They were outside of any communication with the world beyond their small valley, happily ignorant. Their leader, an ex warlord who had had a bounty on his head attacked and killed the son of a badgerlord. This inevitably lead to the destruction of the entire village when she was very young. All of her family safe for one of her younger brothers were killed and the village burned.
She escaped with a deep set bias against all beasts from Salamandastron and was 'adopted' by a wolf. She grew up in a horde, leaning awkwardly about the real world. She developed into a skilled spitfire of a fighter by the time she was a teenager and left to have multiple odd adventures. She brutally hunted down every badger that had any involvement in the murder of her family and grotesquely kept their severed tails as a sort of souvenir. This lead to her being extremely well known and hated by Salamandastron beasts. Nearly any badger, hare or any other Salamandastron beast she stumbled across she either needed to knock out, kill or escape.
Throughout her adult life she has had many fleeting friendships. Most of them ending dramatically with some amount of betrayal behind them. Her respect had rested with few creatures; some advisories she had never felt quite right killing, others who she shared aid with, she was always loyal to those she saw as equals. One such beast being Redin Outimir (who she admittedly still thought about as 'Scythe the Warlord' from time to time) The two had played a deadly game of tease and chase for quite a time before admitting their dual respect and thus their friendship.
A recent near death experience stopped her killer escapades. A few short seasons after giving up the riskiest bits of her life she 'unexpectedly' had twin boys. This forced her to settle even more, and she began her odd smaller and less deadly profession. Her badger hunting days are over, but she is still occasionally recognized and doesn't hesitate when threatened. She is still just as skilled a fighter, but she is careful with herself on account of her children.
Her family history- Sleet's parents (Mother- Tesra, Father- Seroq) Had a small squad of children. She had an older brother named Briaar and an older sister named Terin. She had a twin sister named Sarria and twin younger brothers. The only family member she knows to be alive is her youngest brother Kutenai, who she found when she was in her late teens. The two are extremely close still.
Her two twin boys Dax and Omri are the result of a ill thought out relationship with a corsair. Despite their unorthodox roots, them and her younger brother are her only remaining family.

These are Sleet-ish markings. Hopefully I'll find or make a picture for all of them sooner or later ;D
