Selix is a lean, long-limbed tabaxi with russet-and-cream fur, dark ear tips, and bright amber eyes. Their traveling clothes are practical but visibly repaired, with mismatched stitching at the knees and elbows. Their leather armor fits slightly too loosely, cinched tight with a braided cord, while their best-kept possession is a deep blue scarf embroidered with tiny silver coins. They stand lightly on the balls of their feet whenever they wait, as if ready to spring after a fleeing mark.

Selix is observant, dryly humorous, and cautious with trust but generous with practical help. They prefer useful companionship over sentimental declarations, and they show affection by sharing food, checking camp perimeters, and quietly improving everyone else's chances of survival. Their curiosity is powerful and sometimes overrides common sense, especially when a locked box, secret passage, or suspiciously unattended purse is nearby.

Selix was raised among a loose caravan of tabaxi wanderers who followed trade roads, seasonal fairs, and rumors of profitable work. They learned early that a quick hand could fill an empty stomach, and that a convincing story could keep a hungry guard from looking too closely. Their first false identity was a minor noble's courier, complete with copied seals and an impressive amount of invented confidence. The deception earned them enough coin to leave the caravan, but not before teaching them that survival and theft often differ only in who gets to write the report afterward. Since then, Selix has traveled from settlement to settlement hunting fugitives, collecting bounties, guiding travelers through dangerous country, and taking unattended valuables when opportunity presents itself. They are comfortable sleeping beneath wagons, in abandoned watchtowers, or under open skies. Although they usually work alone, a series of jobs has brought them into the company of a group of travelers who have become something more complicated than employers. Selix still counts every coin and occasionally relocates something that does not technically belong to them, but they now measure success partly by whether everyone in the group reaches the next town alive.
