The Cat Lord

The Cat Lord was a deity venerated by the Tabaxi and other felinid races. He was neither good nor evil, but was solely with the welfare of cats. Something of a trickster, he was more active on the Material Plane than most other deities.

Cheeky's Dream

Cheeky Patch, a paladin of the Cat Lord, received the following vision:

Cheeky knelt in meditation within a realm that transcends the boundaries of mortal comprehension. Here, hues waltz and intertwine, casting an iridescent tapestry of colors impossible to replicate in the world of men. Constellations, gleaming like radiant jewels, illuminate the vast expanse of this otherworldly realm, a place where stars themselves seem to breathe.

Emerging from this astral masterpiece, there loomed a shadow—an abyssal maw, a yawning darkness that hungers insatiably. From this abyss emerged an entity, an eldritch nightmare of cosmic terror and primordial chaos. It represents an affront to the very laws that govern existence—a chaos made manifest.

In this kaleidoscopic revelation, a feline figure, radiant and divine, emerged. It is the Cat Lord, an enigmatic deity among deities, who walks amidst the constellations, a twinkle in his celestial eye. His gaze upon Cheeky transcended mere sight; it was an acknowledgment of purpose.

With the gentle wave of a paw, the Cat Lord conjured a vision of the world below, revealing the eldritch creature and its dark designs. The harmony of existence quivered in the wake of this cosmic malevolence.

Cheeky sensed her divine charge, her sacred duty. She was chosen as the Claws of Fate, the guardian of existence, entrusted with the solemn task of defying the cosmic terror that lingers in the abyss.

As the vision concluded, the Cat Lord's voice resonates through the very cosmos, "Uphold the balance, Claws of Fate. In your courage rests the destiny of worlds."

Cheeky awakened with a profound sense of calling, knowing that she has been chosen to stand against the cosmic peril, to defend the multiverse from the nameless horror lurking within the abyss.
