Hmm, that was the description, I thought :-P humanoid ocelot (wikipedia 
has a good photo), largeish breasts, wears strips of fabric meant to keep 
people from worrying about whether or not she's dressed.

What else could I say... she's not too tall for human standards, she's 
about... hi May, how tall is she? I think about 1.6m. She doesn't have 
extra “human” hair on top of the cat hair. Brown and green cat eyes and a 
habit of licking her lips in a disturbing way when she smiles (not dirty 
disturbing, more like scary).

Don't be in a hurry to believe anything Pantra says.

Sigh, I guess I'll have to “ruin” the joke and explain. We had planned 
for it to happen 3x in the first issue so it would be clear, but since I 
can't know when we'll post the next parts, better explain in case anyone 
wants to use her before then...

Here's the thing: we decided to use her attention span problem to do a 
comic riff on old-school mysterious pre-Origin Wolverine. We want to have 
her offer one absurd origin story per issue at least. The truth is she 
has no idea and she doesn't really care much.

(Which explains January's “Of course you did”; probably not the first or 
the second origin story she hears.)

She came up with the goddess thing as a way of flirting with Googlemesh. 
Now that she has met Catastrophe, I'm looking forward to her telling 
someone she's his daughter, to which he'd be all “what? No way!”...

What's her *true* origin? We don't care either ;-)
