More from Rosalie Takao
Once upon a time, there was a Japanese girl who grew up hating cats. They always hissed at her and scratched at her when she was really young and didn’t know any better, so she initially despised the creatures. Any show with a cat mascot would be turned off, any game featuring a cat would be neglected, any clothing even vaguely cat-like would be discarded. This continued until college, when the worst day of her life happened, but also, the start of something new.
It was during the middle of a typhoon when she got the call that her parents had passed away in the storm. Suspending her studies to go literally pick through the wreckage of her life, she had only spent a few hours trying to recover her family belongings when she heard the desperate squeak of a kitten. She tried to ignore it, but the pitiful pleas were too much, and she discovered the thing lost and alone, wandering the street nearby. Despite her misgivings, she scooped up the little creature and took it back to her apartment.
Luckily, her parents had left a modest inheritance to their sole daughter, to make sure she would be comfortable no matter what she did. She attempted to go back to college, but taking care of her new mouth to feed was just as taxing as a resuming her studies. She wanted to hate the ball of fluff and fangs, just as she hated so many other cats, and yet, she saw too much of herself in her new pet, both orphaned and alone in the world now. So over time, as the kitten grew up into a beautiful and affectionate feline, she found one day that she had gotten over that childhood hatred, and yet, her heart had room for more.
Using that inheritance, she opened up a cat cage and started to adopt cats and kittens that needed a proper home. It became rather successful, and she finally had a family again, one of her own making. As the years went on, and her original kitten passed away, she understood that death was not something to be scared of, but to be treasured, and so, she kept on adopting cats that would be unwanted and giving them a proper home.
Until one fateful day when the woman was hit by a rampaging truck that went down her road, and awoke in a dark and mysterious library inhabited by spectral cats. There, she met the personification of Death of another, far-off world. That truck had been placed through an act of fate in a manner to catch a soul meant for a summoning to the world the Death belonged to, but this Death had also watched the woman’s own story and admired her dedication, so offered her a job.
Using its own immense power, this Death would influence the gods forming a party of heroes to provide its own champion, to give these mortals a fighting chance against the task they have been summoned for, and so, she was cast into a new body made in the image of herself in her prime and empowered with the ghosts of the cats she cared about the most, as well as this Death’s favorite phantasmal familiars. With an army of ghost cats at her beck and call, she would become Nyanastasia Shakespurr, the Nekomancer.
This is my new D&D character, a Death Domain Cleric for a game that is "Oops, All Isekai" run by a friend of mine.
Her design was done by TaeSarayut over on DeviantART, who you can check out here:

Her appearance and aesthetic were an homage to the Cat Witch created by Ronillust, which you can see here:
