<p>Belek Oorzhak is a feline from one of the Steppe catfolk tribes. Their fur is dusty grey with darker rosettes, with a splash of lighter grey - bordering on white - traveling from beneath their chin down over their front. Their frame is slight beneath their chamois deel, leading to a good bit of ambiguity as to their gender: with subtle adjustments to their voice and mannerisms, they could pass for feminine just as easily as for masculine. Something they use to their advantage as they work jobs ranging across the Steppes, for whether a job calls for a strong young cat or a demure young feline matters not in the end.</p>
<p>They wear a chamois deel, a type of wrap-around tunic belted around the waist with a sash, over baggy trousers cinched at the ankles. For more formal situations, they have a silken deel in navy blue with fine brocade folded away in the pack they carry with them. For colder weather, they also carry a hooded cloak and fur-trimmed cap.</p>
<p>They travel light with only a quarterstaff, dagger, clothes, food, and their single most precious possession, a small, gilt book hidden away beneath their clothing - too precious to even trust to the pack.</p>
