Catspaw

is the Omnitrix's sample of a Cleoline from an unknown desert planet.
==Appearance==
Catspaw appears as a short anthropomorphic feline, clad in cloth wraps. The wraps cover nearly the entire of her body, save for her navel, which is pulled back to expose her skin and the Omnitrix symbol on her navel. Beneath the wraps, Catspaw's skin is a cold, dead grey. She also possesses gold bands on her thighs, calves, and arm, as well as a golden gorget around her neck.
On her head, she sports two large ears. The "crown" of her head is black and the innards of her ears are gold-striped.
Her eyes are a blue turquoise, and are outlined by traditional Egyptian eyeliner.
Behind her flickers her long tail, also clad in cloth wraps.
==Abilities and Equipment==
*Catspaw can summon up to eight clones of herself.
*Catspaw can flick her consciousness between her clones.
**If a clone is defeated/vanquished/killed/knocked unconscious, her consciousness will immediately float back to an available clone.
*Each of Catspaw's clones can act like an information collector - i.e., even if she cannot physically be in eight places at once, she can still feel the sensory input from each one.
*She can dismiss them at will and at a moment's notice; however, she cannot dismiss the active clone, she must transfer herself away first.
*Being a feline, Catspaw is particularly acrobatic and flexible. 
*Catspaw also possesses retractable turquoise claws and a prehensile tail.
*Catspaw can use the wraps on her limbs, usually for movement purposes.
==Weaknesses and Limits==
*Each of Catspaw's clones work at limited consciousness. Only one can really be "controlled" at a time, the others are simply on autopilot and capable of simple activities (moving forward, standing still, sleeping, etc.).
*Catspaw's clones can be disrupted by powerful psychics.
*Catspaw isn't particularly strong, just agile.
*Because she can feel the sensory input from each clone, Catspaw is more prone to being annoyed than my ex-wife was just prior to the divorce's finalization.
==Background==
The Cleolines hail from a desert/savannah planet sparse with resources. In their youth, the species has a high telepathic capability. In order to progress and survive on their planet, they must kill their fellow juvenile CLeolines and use their psychic powers to take control of and rehabilitate the corpses they have slain. Over time, these controlled corpses slowly begin to resemble their psychic hosts until they are practically unable to be differentiated.
