Character
Killer is an attractive white cat of around 5' 10" with completely white hair and green eyes. She is somewhere in her thirties, experienced, but fit and agile from a routine of free running and other activities.

Killer and her younger brother Jeremiah are known to have come from a longstanding clan of Arcadia, who lived there and carried local respect long before the Court of Violets arrived. The clan is matriarchal, and Killer's mother is a respected traditional healer and owner of a farm where both food and medicinal herbs are grown. Killer is trained in some of the healing arts and helps oversee the farm when she is not flying. Not much is yet known about Killer's father, except that he was a pilot in the Azure League, may have known a mammoth, and died some time ago. Killer and Jeremiah learned to fly both from their father and by doing local crop dusting and trading flights in the Arcadia area.

Other information about Killer is still spotty, but she is known to enjoy motorcycling when on land and be trained in martial arts. Her trademark weapon is the blowdart, which she taints with a home-made aneasthetic and can shoot quite accurately. Thoroughly independent, she engages in both combat and trading, mainly with an eye on supporting her family and maintaining her freedom. She is protective of both her younger brother and her bike. She is also a proud Independent and member of the Black Sheep Squadron.

Recent stories have come to light that killer lost a love to pirate kidnapping, then treachery. She purchased a house on Grotto, which she has been renovating, taking breaks to explore and dive at the nearby coral reef. This enjoyable interlude was interrupted by her mother's sudden illness, and Killer's subsequent return to Arcadia to take care of the family for some months. She has returned to heavy trading somewhat more pensive.

Killer can frequently be found at the Rotor & Prop tavern, wheeling, dealing and socializing.

Personality
Killer is outgoing and at times somewhat brazen. There has been talk of her being a bit of a libertine, but closer investigation will find that she has both standards and a strong moral code. She is usually friendly and often kind, but quick to anger when slighted or crossed. Intelligent, well connected and loyal to her family and good friends, she makes acquaintances easily, but can be short on details and patience until they know her better.

Killer enjoys a good joke, a good drink, and a good catnip cigarette. She also enjoys a good aerial dogfight. She has been known to tease younger pilots a bit, although in a world where many are shot down before they can reach her age, she does it with an eye to teaching.

As we get to know her, more of Killer's personality will emerge. Feel free to stop by the R&P and chat her up.

Planes
Killer has owned eight incarnations of The Mighty Shmoo: a CR-4P, Nomad, Chapparal, Loki, Dauntless, Bullfrog, Lancaster and Kingfisher.

With her return to 2.5, Killer pilots The New Shmoo Revue: CR-4P, Nomad, Chapparal, Cyclops, Barracuda, Bullfrog, Lancaster.
