Catherina

Catherina Grann is a bounty hunter and a candidate for the Royal Tournament. She pledges to stand up for her paripus tribe, which is often looked down upon, and make them wealthier. Despite being a rival of the young Elda candidate, Will, in the election, she is also one of his followers. Due to the prevalent discrimination against the paripus tribe, Catherina is very distrustful of others, believing they only want to use her for their own personal benefit. Before the royal funeral, she mostly takes bounties for the state and has single-handedly cleared most of them. It is said that she would have gained more recognition if she wasn't a paripus. The paripus tribe has ears and tails like those of beasts. They are blessed with physical abilities, though in a different way in comparison to the strength of the roussainte tribe. Their sensibilities are physical, and many are hedonistic in nature. They enjoy parties and lively surroundings, and have a cheerfulness and lack of concern for small things. The paripus are nearly as populous as the clemar and roussainte tribes, though they are often relegated to being second-class citizens and are thus banned from participating in politics. Most of the homeless in Grand Trad are paripus tribesmen.
