Cat's Eyes
By: Ria Hawk

There are precious few things that allow time-travel.  Cat’s Eyes is one of them.

Cat’s Eyes is a silver necklace set with nine different gems.  It is the property of Felia. It allows her to time travel in a limited fashion.

Felia is a cat turned human who was, due to some peculiar circumstances, given a tenth life and the power to travel to any of her previous lives.  While in the past, Felia has the form of a cat.  She is permitted to change some things, although she can’t alter her own fate.  She can alter the fates of others, though.  Each gem in the necklace is for a different life.  Next to her life, it is the most important thigs she has.

Magical Properties:

The necklace depends on the gems to function.  If any are lost or destroyed, the corresponding life is inaccessible.  As a security measure, the necklace is useless to those without multiple lives.  As it was designed for Felia, the user always takes the form of a cat while in the past.  A user can only go to his or her own lives.  The user cannot affect his or her own fate, and the effects of trying to will not be pleasant.

Felia By: Ria Hawk

Sometimes, those with power often use people and creatures as pawns in greater schemes, giving little or no heed to any ill effects those poor souls suffer.  But every once in a while, a pawn is given the power to turn against the master.  Such a one is Felia.

Interesting. A cat does not necessarily live very long, clumsy cats have truly short lives. So it is not for hundreds of years that she can travel.

Still, some changes in history are possible, though probably no world-shattering ones. Can she travel in the span of this life? Probably not, so no easy go-to-yesterday-place-a-bet scheme will work. Changing the fates may be very hard this way (not to mention being a cat is a limit, too). Any change has to be deeply thinked about, before attempting.

Even simple do-good activities (or do-Evil if you want) are getting harder as the time goes by, and Felia grows older. If you can go only six months or more into the past...

Well, as she was human in her past lives, I'm not sure exactly how far she could go back, and whether or not she had nine human lifespans, or nine cat lifespans. I'd say that twenty years per life would be the upper limit, because a cat can live that long, and Felia died fairly young in each incarnation. But her this is her tenth life, and that's all she gets. She can't change anything that has happened in her current life, and she can't change her own actions in previous lives.

we were talking about were to break a submission, and this is one that I think should be folded into the main submission, but even then this item would need a lot of development by any gamer to drop into a world.

On another note...TIME TRAVELING CAT PEOPLE WITH QUANTUM LEAP OR BEING ERICA TYPE RESTRICTIONS ON THEIR ABILITY TO ALTER TIME....How do you unpack that concept in the game.  The players start interacting with a Cat in fancy necklace, it dies, they interact with another cat in the same necklace.  The cat leads them around to different points of interest....I guess if your player time travel they might catch on.

Serpens Necto is a mask made of snake skins stitched together and crudely painted in white. With this on a person can bind people to their will under the right conditions. In darkness the effect of the mask is greatly enchanced by illumination from under by a candle.
