Amber

Works out a lot, it being her favorite pastime. Her fur hides how strong she is, the outlines of her six-pack being mostly hidden by it. Lets out a lot of pent-up anger by working out, allowing her to stay calm during the day. Her muscular body would make her pass for a man if it wasn't for her face and slight swell of her chest.

Her fur thickens during winter. She keeps her tail tucked in most of the time.

Is a goth, frequently wearing goth clothing, piercings, studded armbands and other things. Dyes her hair black and frequently wears contacts in various, unnatural colors. Occasionally paints her nails. Makeup doesn't work well on fur, so she avoids it. Her age makes her stand out, her parents thinking that she should've grown out of being a goth by now and most of her friends becoming "normal". She herself has her doubts, but is also doubling down thinking this is who she is. When she is with her goth friend group she always plays it off when people point out her age, leaning into the "cool older person" stereotype.

Lives alone and is fiercely independent. She firmly believes that she doesn't need anyone "fix" her. She is angry about not having settled down and found a partner yet, unlike most people her age, but at the same time she is very afraid of intimacy and becoming attached to others. She has never had a partner, and feels like she missed out a lot. She feels like all the good people are already partnered up, and she dreads having to settle down with "leftovers". She also believes most people are repulsed by her appearance as a muscular woman, and that her animalistic appearance would only appeal to other anthros.
