Qiann is a very quiet and shy cat, and while he isn't necessarily afraid of everything, he would much rather sit back and watch what others do before jumping in with some kind advice or help. He tends to keep everything categorized into neat little compartments in his head and when he's made an observation about someone or something, he tends to think of it as fact rather than an organic thing that can change over time. Because of that, he can come across as rather arrogant when talking about the things he's learned, most of the times unwilling to change his outlook unless presented with hard evidence, in which case he'll take that and make that his new truth about whatever the topic was over. Qiann, while fairly firm on his observable studies, is easily swayed or talked down to by those who are more aggressively inclined, unwilling to fight for his voice to be heard, unless it's a topic he's passionate about. He tends to accept most things that are presented to him, finding new information and behavior interesting.
History
Far off from the Tribelands, on a small beach nestled in a little cove, lived a small family of seafarers. They lived modestly, but comfortably, having perfected the art of fishing from a small boat out in the reefs; they never went hungry, every night they told tales and relaxed by a fire, and simply enjoyed their lives. There was play and laughter, fights sometimes, but the bonds of their connection went deep and soon, they were to welcome two more souls to their little group. When Andy and Camden found out they were expecting their first litter, both were ecstatic, and made the proper preparations, making a new separate den for their soon to arrive kittens, using berries and other dyes to paint the walls festive colors, when they day finally arrived, there was nothing left to do but welcome their children with open arms and hearts full of love.
Bluebell and Aster were beautiful kittens, and the two fathers couldn't have been happier for this new adventure. Bluebell grew up alongside his sister and quickly learned the do's and don't's of living by the beach. From cousin Sonata: the tide was dangerous, but here was the way to be safest if you were swept away, cousin Cerise taught about how the color of the sky showed weather to come for the coming day and how to repair their homes, from Grandparent Ukiah how to walk on sand and not get it everywhere in their home; Jezebel, Andy and Camden taught them how to swim, fish, cousin Kiva taught them how to chart the stars, how to fight for their safety.--whatever their group could teach, he absorbed. When one day, he told his fathers he didn't want to be their daughter, but their son, there was no confusion or big deal made, it simply was.
They lived their life in peace, until one day a massive storm blew through, one so massive that it tore apart their homes from around them, the wind taking trees and plucking them like weeds and Cerise came out screaming that they needed to reach higher group. This was a hurricane and all they could hope to do was take what they could, get higher and then wait it out. And so that's what they tried to do. Everything was blue as important belongings were grabbed, Jezebel and Kiva grabbed a protesting Ukiah, who was now screaming that they wanted to be left there, that this was their time, and then Blu and Sawyer were snatched up but their fathers. They raced into the night, fighting the winds, trying to avoid the whipping debris, but they weren't fast enough. The water rose so fast, their beloved ocean turning into a raging surge, rushing around them and Blu was ripped from Andy's jaws and swept away by the water, screeching for someone to help him.
He wasn't sure how he survived that night, but when he woke up next, he was far, far from anywhere that he recognized, and the rain still poured. Gripping onto the branch he'd been lodged against, he made his way further inland, trying to get higher, trying to escape the still rising water. He travelled for days and the rain finaly abated, the ground under his paws finally became less of a swamp, and finally, he was able to pull himself over a ridge. What he found was a large piece of land he'd never seen, everything was foreign, but he could smell cats on the wind. So on he went until he ran into a cat, a pretty torbie who he latched onto as questions poured out of him. Where was he? Was his family there? Was it safe? Patiently she answered all of his questions, explaining about the Tribelands and their magic. but most importantly that, yes, it was safe. And if he wanted, he could join, at least until he was strong enough to go find his family. The idea sounded better than setting out aimlessly and shyly he nodded, following the pretty cat towards the totems. He circled the clearing until a sudden tune called to him, stronger than any pull he'd ever felt before, and before he knew what was happening, his nose was pressed to the cold stone of the totem and a name whispered into his ear Qiann of Water-Tribe. When he looked down, he saw a white mark upon his shoulder, and his new life with the Tribes had begun.

Misc. Info:
Qiann look familiar? That's because he's the reincarnation of Qiarah! Many blessings and thanks to the admins for letting me have my baby back -weeps-Qiann has sleep apnea! He stops breathing sometimes when he's asleep, but it doesn't tend to bother him too much.He also struggles with insomnia. Because of this sometimes he'll go a few days without sleeping before crashing. When he does sleep, it tends to be exclusively during the day.The bluejay feather is very precious to him. He found it while walking one day and hasn't parted with it since. Sometimes looking at it makes him really sad and he isn't sure why, and if he ever misplaces it, he panics until he finds it again.He's very protective of his truename and hasn't given it to anyone yet!He tends to be wary around secondary Light Tribers but isn't sure why. Their powers just seem volatile and dangerous.I'm love this boy so much.Qiann loves the sound of light rain and finds a connection to the world around him during a light drizzle.He loves Air Tribe and sometimes wonders why he wasn't picked for that Tribe, the thought of soaring through the air makes him happy. But Water Tribe has become a home and he loves the water.
