Description: A well shaped man just over fifty, he sports pastel clothing, slightly heavier than average wear. His yellow fur is lengthy. His fierce blue eyes like to dwell on things.

Personality: He is fixated on the number 25. He counts his steps and bites of food to keep in track with it. He seems to be used to being ignored and not questioned about it. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Flame is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Flame grew up listening to his father's many stories. While he appears to be a normal Tabaxi, he's... not quite right.
