What Scares Her:
being helplessWhy:
Raised in a savanna neighborhood, Kita grew up playing with lion, cheetah, and leopard cubs. She was encouraged to be brave and fierce, like a wild dog should be, and she loved the rush of defying her fears. Her parents, well-aware of their daughter's boldness, took her to a huge theme park for her 10th birthday (one similar to Disneyland). In awe of all to do, she set out to ride every ride in the park. The roller-coasters, the towering drops, the spinning rides... Caught up in the joy, she was separated from her parents.
This wasn't a first for Kita; she'd always been adventurous. But while wandering in search of someone to ask for help, she came across the birthday party of a young giraffe. The family was kind, but as they looked down at her, she felt more and more nervous. These strangers, however kind, looked at her as if she were a fish in a tank. She grew increasingly more upset as the giraffe family peered down at her, their necks bending at -- as far as she knew -- impossible angles. These animals were not ones that she knew, and she was way out of her comfort zone. And that was saying something.
She waited, though, with them. They called park security over to help her, and she was eventually reunited with her overjoyed parents. But all the while, people checked in on her with bending necks, and it made her feel small. She hated feeling small.
Even though this was years ago, Kita still feels nervous around giraffes. She is polite in their company, and never holds their species against them, but she can't shake the feeling of being helpless and like all is out of her control. This is part of why she's as daring as she is; she knows she's in control of herself, her fears, and her life.

Career: monster hunter
As a monster hunter, it is Kita's job to keep hostile entities and unnatural creatures away. With all the diverse population in Furtopia, deciphering monster from possessed citizen can be hard sometimes. She's only failed to recognize the difference once, when she tried to exorcise a creature that WAS actually a monster, resulting in the need for the eyepatch you see her wearing now. It's rumored that she can see true intent with her mutilated eye, but she's never confirmed (or denied) that. Kita knows that possessed citizens are not responsible for their actions and is kind to them when they're freed. She's courageous in the face of danger -a necessary trait in her line of work- and encourages others to be brave as well.
Probably going to add a bit more-- I love this little gal <3
