Shriveled Lily

Shriveled Lily lives by herself in a cave, where she likes to help crystals grow. Nobody knows her very well, seeing as she literally lives in a cave by herself. The cave systems are very complicated, so most cats avoid them as not to get lost. Shriveled Lily could walk through them backwards with her eyes closed (not that she needs her eyes either way, it's pretty dark even with crystals in most tunnels). She seems like the sort to be old and wise, but she's actually quite young. Sometimes Lily misses having friends, but she prefers the cave to being outside. Before she left to the caves, she was in a tribe of cats. She fought against a cat for leadership, and lost when she was left unconscious with fatal wounds. She'd been distracted, focusing on making sure her magic didn't surface to defend her (since that would be cheating). The doctors of the tribe thought Lily wouldn't make it, but she survived, with most wounds scarring. Soon after, she killed the new leader when she accidently used her magic when he attacked her. Some thought it was on purpose, while others just thought that a murderer wasn't somebody they wanted to associate with. Shriveled Lily was exiled from the tribe, and she headed for the caves. In the beginning, she wasn't good at navigating the cave systems, and gained some more scars.

Design Notes:

Make sure you draw her scars! I haven't made her a new reference but she has a ton of scars that you can see in some of her pictures,
