Meet Selena "Shadowpaws" Salem! Curious cat, urban explorer
This is something a little different, I usually do not write a full little story to post along with my characters ref, but I just couldnt help it this time around! So, here she is! Selena “Shadowpaws” Salem. Adopted from the wonderful Luvopop over on twitter here: https://twitter.com/luvo_pop (Though I totally suggest checking out her carrd here because she has a great selection of wonderful adopts. https://luvopop.carrd.co/ Of course, also just consider commissioning her because she’s awesome!) Her nickname came from when she was younger and thought it was cool, but now she is stuck with it because her friends and family (and audience) refuse to let it go! Now, you might be wondering a bit about who she is, hence the story below!!
Selena would let out a sigh as she just gently tiptoed her way through the area. This was a pretty “new” place, but by new it was actually very old and rundown. It was just new to her, you know? Selena was an ever curious girl, ever since she was a kitten. What is she curious about? Well, everything really! About people, about places, history, so on and so forth. And this place was just the recent pique of interest for the young lady of a feline, and especially great given the chill weather of autumn starting to settle in. (Which also meant her favorite holiday was just right around the corner~!) But for now, she was just filming one of her videos. She didn't really have a name, or a big theme she stuck with. Some days she would just sit at home, and talk with her chat about random things that she finds curious, and wants to know more about. Other days, though, she finds herself out and about, walking old landscapes and wondering what is and what was. Of course she would still stream of possible, and continue talking to chat all the while she would explore the abandoned area.
This place in particular was an old building on the outskirts of her hometown that she somehow had never known about. The plaque outside this building had deemed itself a “convalescent care home” which, turns out, basically means “hospital”. Though it really was more of a big apartment complex then your traditional hospital, with rooms being furnished nicely, and meant to make a comfy living space. As she wandered the halls and rooms of this home, she would see just how badly in disrepair it had fallen. Of course, dust and debris littered the area, as well as that graffiti on the walls. But it all lent it a new spooky charm. She sometimes would state to her viewers about feelings she had. Such as feelings of being watched, or saying she heard something. Of course, she had done a healthy amount of research beforehand, and had checked through the proper channels to make sure it was okay for her to come in and do her thing, she didn't want to trespass, or get in a situation in which she could be hurt either.
Still, this was her happy place, sating her curiosity all the while just being able to talk to people about the things she sees and finds. Sometimes she would snag a little souvenir if possible, and proudly display it on a shelf in her room. Sometimes she would go through her souvenirs and talk about them to viewers, new or old, who might have missed the original exploration, or just to reminisce. This time she was looking for something very specific. After all, this was a hospital, and a bit of an older one. Soon, she finally would stumble upon what she was looking for. Quite literally, in this case, tripping over the metal tin on the ground. Landing harshly. Though, assuring her viewers she was fine, she would pick up the old first aid kit, sadly discarded long ago of its contents, and grin. “Though, I think that I should call it for the night! Been lovely chatting with y’all, hope to see you all soon, Mwah!” She blew a kiss to the camera, before shutting off. Once the stream was done, she took a silent moment to whine at herself, rubbing at her scuffed knee. But soon she shake it off, and trek back out to head home!
