Skills: Super Sonic: When running, he can reach speeds of over seven hundred miles an hour. It is so fast, a sonic boom is generated when he breaks the sound barrier. He can practically turn invisible from his speed. A downside is when he reaches such high speeds his body temperature rises extremely fast, making it so his can only run at great speeds for only a short time.

Shadow Sneak: Cane is able to slip into people's shadows and follow them unseen. Though he cannot attack in this form, he can easily spy on others without them knowing. He can slip into building from under doors if there is a shadow, though he is still unable to climb walls. If they sun is right over him, the shadow will have an orange tent of his fur.

Eyes: Amber

Home Village: From a small city across the sea

Character Personality: Cane can be really sarcastic, and will tell jokes that only he thinks is funny. He has an odd personality, and will often say something rude without meaning too. If he does unintentionally offend someone, he feels really bad, but rarely shows it. He is hard, and can defend himself easily. He does show a softer side with his friends, but still keeps is sarcasm. He hates evil, and will do anything he can to fight them. He doesn't mind insulting someone who is evil, or he hates, even if it does get someone mad at him. He will defend anyone in trouble, and will do anything to protect the innocent, and he deeply cares for his friends, even if his exterior doesn't seem like it. He loves to sneak around and spy on others, and he has almost never been caught, the one time he did, almost cost him his life. He managed to escape, and fortunately for him, none saw much of him to recognize him. Cane's odd manner gets him in trouble, but he doesn't care, he just wants people to know what he thinks. He is very protective, and will kill if someone threatens his friends.

Character History: Born in a far of land to the east, he migrated across what his homeland called the great desert. It was generally peaceful, and hadn't seen war for years. Unlike most wilde cheetah's, his race has the same life time as humans. Most caanot use the magic skills he can, but he managed to learn some from dark arts that were banned. They were banned after the Cheetah's Great War. The reason being because they feared what the magic could do in the future. He was interested in it, and started to study the banned knowledge. He never told another cheetah what he learned and did. It is part of the reason why he left his homeland, to discover more of this banned magic if possible. Though very few cheetahs could use it, from what he read the few that could were very powerful. He was one of the few survivors, most died on the way, the ones that didn't went back, Cane never heard of them again. Once he arrived in the strange new land, he started to explore. He found several things that amazed him, and learned of the events going on. He tried to keep out of the war for as long as he could, but he always found ways to get himself accidently involved. He was chased by hundreds of Galbatorix's soldiers after an event he hardily knows how it started. He was walking down a street when he heard several people talking. He approached cautiously, and heard things about this group called the Varden fighting Galbatroix. It was boring to him, so he left. He had no intentions on getting involved, but then he heard something interesting, one of the soldiers talked of something called 'The Shifting Steel'. He went back for a closer look, and heard the king, and others whose names he forgot were after it. Learning it was near a great volcano surprisingly close to his homeland, he left. He didn't want to look for it. Besides, what good would it do him.
He walked away, and to his surprise, the soldiers stood up. He looked down and swore. He just stepped on an alarm, "You! Kill him!" a soldier demanded, "He's seen too much!" Without speaking, Cane dashed through the city, not caring who or what ne knocked over. He saw a carriage leaving the city, and jumped into it, burying himself deep in the hay. After a few hours, he jumped out, earning a surprised look from the leader. He walked off, and started to wonder just what the Shifting Steel was. It started to interest him, but he thought less about it. If those men were involved in it he knew it couldn't be good.
After a few days he arrived at a small city near the edge of a great forest. Strange creatures he later learned to be elves were preparing for a battle. He ran, literally, into an elf named Da'moon. He glared up at the elf about to say something rude when he silenced him.
"Don't talk. We are ready for attack."
"Who are you?" Cane demanded, "And why not talk. I don't even know who you are and your ordering me around."
The elf shook his head, "Cheetah, there is a war here if you haven't noticed. Unlike your homeland, we are not in a time of peace."
"How do you know about my homeland? And what do you mean." Cane wondered.
"Be quiet, just fight with us, I'll tell you once the battle is over."
Heading the elf's advice, Cane fought in the battle. He didn't want to be involved, but he wanted to know what the elf meant, and how he knew of his homeland. Cane fought well, he would sink into the shadows and jump up from behind his victim. Though most of the time he would spring right at them knocking them away and they flew into other enemies. Though to him it seemed like they fought well, the battle was lost, and the army was forced to retreat. He looked around the army for Da'moon until he finally found the elf. He had a large bandage on his left arm.
Once they stopped, Da'moon turned around to Cane, "Cheetah, leave, this is not safe from you. The dark armies are coming after us."
"I want my questions answered. I don't want to be involved with this conflict. No matter what you think. Just answer my questions." Cane replied with a grimace.
The elf glared at him, but did as commanded, "They will recognize you cheetah. There aren't many of you around. They will not your fought on our side,"
Before the elf went on any longer, Cane interrupted, "WHAT!!!! You make me fight with you so I can have my questions answered, and now you're saying the men we just fought will be after me!" He snarled angrily at the elf.
"You had a choice there Cane. You could have just stood by while we fought."
"And be a coward while you all fight and risk your lives? Never!" Snarling Cane replied, "Go on."
The elf looked straight at the cheetah and told him his tale. He said he was once at his homeland, and saw the peace and prosperity of it. He said how he admired the cheetahs in how they handled their peace and even their enemies. They chose not to fight, and had not seen war for ages. Cane was intrigued by what he said, thought he kept the same expression of wanting to know the information. He doubted, no matter what the elf said, his homeland would meet war. Thought he was sure that the fool elf was right that several mad men wanting power and there were several wars at once, none of them would go east enough to threaten his homeland. The elf told him of the wars here, and the various mad men who wanted power or to destroy everything.
"I'm sorry Cane, but you may soon be involved in these problems." the elf said.
Cane swore at the elf, but left, he refused to be part of this war, any of them. He wanted to return to his homeland, he would have nothing to do with wars. Until one day when he went into a city. To his horror, the whole city was butchered. The buildings were burned, and each of the civilians had been impaled by pikes, and their bodies were rotting in the sun. Not even children were spared from the cruel dark fate. Anger, rage, sorrow, and several other emotions flooded him. He stormed out of the city and to his surprise and disgust, saw three soldiers.
"They squealed like pigs didn't they? I can still remember the looks on their faces when we attacked. Worthless fools. Ah, I wish the rest of the battalion were here to look back at our work." One soldier said.
Laughing, another one slapped his large belly, "Nasty brats, think they can get away with hiding their taxes and not bowing down to us. Serves them right."
Before any of the new, Cane had dashed towards them, and sunk his claws into the fat man's belly. Piercing his skin, Cane glared at all of them, "You think this is funny! You think killing innocents is right! I will make you regret the day you were born!" He snarled with great venom. Before any could react, he had killed the fat man, and pounced on another soldiers. He jumped away when the second swung his sword at him and knocked the man to the ground. Snarling, he tore open the man's chest, and finished off the other. He never noticed the fourth man. He glared at Cane, but did something odd, when Cane charged him, muttered a few words, and Cane was blasted away and smashed into a building. Upon waking up, he knew that he could no longer be natural, though he wanted to, he had just made enemies with that army, and they would be sure to try and kill him even more now.
He managed to look around, he was blasted into one of the remaining buildings in the village. He stood up and shook himself. He had no idea where to go, but he would do whatever he could to avenge the people who died here. He walked away, and said to himself They will come to fear me. They will regret slaughtering this village. They have officially made another enemy.
