These headshots come courtesy of a long period of on-and-off deliberation regarding a character I created for an art trade more than four years ago. She's undergone some refinements during that time, but I was conflicted as to whether to add her to my cast of characters. I should note that the last character I added was Nei'chelle, in August 2001, so I don't just add characters willy-nilly.

During this time I decided on a name: "Kallista". Her personality would be akin to what TVTropes calls a Genki Girl, which is what I had in mind when I did the headshot in the upper right. The others are "generic profile", "seductive" and "Oooooh, (what does this button do?)". But the 'genki' personality will be the basis of her existence, which seems entirely appropriate for a cheetah.

While she's depicted as topless (but no naughty bits showing) in these examples, she won't be a naturist like Nei'chelle, although she's not particularly shy about being seen in the buff, and at times doesn't recognize personal space, which will no doubt lead to future awkwardness and probably x-rated activites :)

At this point, the word "perhaps" is probably superfluous by now. She's for all intents and purposes official (insert highly-caffeinated squeal of delight).
