[table]What was home? Was it four walls and a roof? Was it more than that, a place that you felt some sort of connection to, be it through time or tribulation? Or was it the people around you? Did the people around you have to be family, or was it again, a matter of time or tribulation? Cat didn't know. For years, home had just been a short hand for home base, whatever shithole they had taken up residence for the time being.
The only place that had felt like home was Molly's house, way back when they were little. Sure, the neighborhood at large had sucked, but it had been home. The Young Rogues, Mourningstar, it had never compared. But even Catalyst had come to the Badlands hoping that they might find some sort of home. At first, they hadn't been successful. Considering they'd been rejected and imprisoned, how could it be home?
But it was now. They ran this fucking town, at the people that had once refused their leadership now looked to it. And, by some miracle, Fate had been kind enough to grant them a family. Like a full, proper family. Their mother, who they owed everything to, their father, who they had thought was dead, their boyfriend, who they loved more than they knew was even possible, and their daughter, who they would give the world to.
Yeah. This place was home.
The yelling brought Cat's attention to a figure they hadn't yet noticed. They gestured to their patrol, moving swiftly over the sand to go greet Salem. "You gonna shank me if I say no?" They asked, looking at the sword. These days they couldn't be too careful.

APPEARANCE dress me up and watch me die
⇥ Catalyst is 6'2" tall; they possess a lean and muscular body, one that has a variety of old scars adorning it. One of the easiest to notice is one that stretches down their right cheek. While not a scar, one very notable marking on their chest is the "BL" brand. They have two piercings, one in their tongue and the other in the cartilage of their left ear. They typically dress in dark colors (favoring jackets with some sort of writing on the back), and their hair is black. They're not all dark, however, as they have pale blue eyes that peer out from beneath medium-sized eyebrows.
PERSONALITY if it feels good, tastes good, it must be mine
⇥ Catalyst is ambitious, with the cunning and ruthlessness to reach their goals by any means necessary. They can be brutal when they feel it is needed, however when it's not they won't bother. They tend to be rather aloof and apathetic to most things and people, with some very rare exceptions. Provided those around them don't cross a few specific lines, they're content to leave them be, though they've been known to take an interest in some people, which seldom has a positive end for whoever their interest is in. They can be manipulative, and will often encourage people to make bad decisions. Those that stick by them will be rewarded, but those that do not will be cast out, as they've been outcast for their entire life and have learned to appreciate loyalty wherever they can find it. Even during the most stressful of situations, they usually keep a firm grip on their temper and keep their calm, though when they do snap and lose their temper, it is uncontrollable. They're remarkably observant, often able to deign much from subtle clues in what people say, how they say it and how they act.
