Kiara is a small, lithe Tabaxi with thick, snow-white fur punctuated by charcoal and soft grey rosettes. Her facial features are delicately oriental, framed by rounded leopard ears. Her most striking feature is her luminous blue eyes, which radiate an infectious wonder and excitement at the world's beauty, yet beneath that spark lies a profound, haunting depth of sorrow. She possesses a rare, fully prehensile tail that moves with a mind of its own, often coiling around her leg or a nearby piece of furniture. Despite her warrior training, she has a soft, almost fragile quality to her movements, walking with a low-center fluidity that makes her appear to be skating rather than stepping. A surprising and vulnerable detail is the presence of a thick, padded pull-up waistband often visible above her trousers or beneath her short gi, a sign of her ongoing struggle with trauma-induced incontinence.
