Summary
Did you know that foxes and cats can't speak to each other?
Well, technically, there are ways that they can. Gifts from the gods, for example - Amara or Emery might be able to understand a fox who became a fellow disciple, for instance. But without such intervention, it's simply not possible; the two species are too different, not even in the same taxonomic suborder. The languages of feliformia and caniformia are exclusive to each other - You might be able to find a fox that can speak to dogs, or a cat that can speak to hyenas, but a fox and a cat would be hard pressed to find a common tongue. Try to communicate through other means as they might, it was simply never in the cards for the two species to speak through natural means.
And Isra is all too happy to take advantage of that.
Isra likes to consider herself an agent of chaos. Most of the folks around her consider her an annoyance. She's got a thing for pranks, and a thing for not being held responsible for her actions - So, what better way to get away with her games than by taking advantage of the fact that the felines around her can't even properly tell her off? Playing chase with other cats' tails, hiding their things, snatching away their prey for herself before they can pounce... What are they gonna do, yell at her? Pfff, like she cares. She's not even listening.
Better hope she doesn't pull that schtick with someone who'll actually fight back, though.
Trivia
- Isra was one of the first official foxes made in Hunter's Woods, being the fourth one created.
- The contest in which Isra was won had entrants drawing the character's favorite toy - I joked to a friend about having her favorite toy be one of the other Wayfarers' tails, and with the existing lore of my groups stating that animals in different suborders can't normally communicate, the idea stuck, transforming into her being a prankster who targets felines who can't do very much in retaliation due to their language barrier.
- Isra is not aware of the fact that foxes and cats are capable of communicating if both are granted the ability to do so by the gods. When the day comes that she finds out, she's likely to be sweating bullets, even moreso when it occurs to her that they're ferrying around a deity of their own, and they could theoretically flip the switch for both her and any or all of her companions at any moment.
