Cat Ninja: The Heart Of A Hero

**Cat Ninja** (a.k.a real name: ***Claude***) is a fictional comic book character from the Epic! Originals series with the same name. He is known to be mostly the major titular & protagonist of the series and one of Metro City's superheroes, after being replaced by Octopunch in Cat Ninja: The Heart of a Hero.

As a former trained student from Cat Lady, and the mate of Le Chat. Cat Ninja currently lives with the modern Kwon family, with Leon as his main and current owner.

## Appearance

House Cat Form **(Claude)**: Cat Ninja uses his original 4 legs dwelling everywhere to protect his identity/alter ego, and rarely stands with a pair of legs, owning him human-like movements.

Claude doesn't have paw prints at his hands, only on his feet. He doesn't wear his superhero/ninja clothing at the house at times for reasons, but owns gray colored fur covering most of the body.

His hairstyle has two strands of hair on top of his head between his 2 pointy ears with a light grey ear interior. He has 2 hair tufts in each of his cheeks with a dark grey streak pointing to his face and mouth, while he has one tuft at his young age. He has a light grey muzzle/mouth with a black T-shaped nose located in the middle with 3 dots in each side, resembling marks of three whiskers. On the body he has a tuft of hair out of his chest, and has a tail with a dark grey pattern: one mark on the tip covering a half of his tail and one gray stripe after.

As a superhero/alter-ego **(Cat Ninja)**: Cat Ninja's house cat design stays the same but the difference is he dons black and red superhero uniform to hide his identity. He's an anthropomorphic cat which means he can mostly stand in two pairs of legs, and acts like a human with part humanoid features and characteristics. Somehow he grows fingers as an anthro.

## Personality

Cat Ninja is described as "A Lazy House Cat By Day", and "A Crimefighter At Night". He has a silent and serious attitude who is always prepared to fight, during a battle he never gives up when he faces defeat. Cat Ninja would protect anything he loves no matter the cost. He may also be solving mysteries as well and will be determined to do so. When Master Hamster is around, Cat Ninja gets tired of Master Hamster's antics, especially when something suspicious goes around him, Master Hamster never believes Cat Ninja's proof. Cat Ninja's weaknesses are handheld cat lasers, his family as a lure, or tennis balls.

## Powers & Abilities

* **Stealth**-As he learned it from Cat Lady's skill, she passed on the tradition to him. Cat Ninja knows how to spy, sneak up on someone, and stay quiet without being caught. He may steal objects in a good way, and return objects included.
* **Endurance and Durability**- Cat Ninja can heal easily unless he has 9 lives. Unless someone saves him, or finds a way out through his physical pain.
* **Combat Prowess**- Cat Ninja is always into hand-to-hand combat. After being a trained student and "son" from Cat Lady.
* **Battle IQ**- Cat Ninja has trained for years becoming a superhero originally by Cat Lady, and that leads him having a gain of battle intelligence quotient.
	+ **Kat-Fu-** This fighting style technique is used when Cat Ninja is in combat. This type of fighting style may be used by the Cat's Claw Clan.
* **Influence**- Cat Ninja is Metro City's Current Superhero, and he mostly gets all the charm from the residents, and turning him into trending memes on online posting platforms. Master Hamster often has jealousy of this, and also tries to convince everyone but mostly fails.
* **Retractable Claws**- Cat Ninja uses his claws to slice and scratch anything, just as in Cat Ninja: Wanted! The Final Countdown, he used his claws to escape from himself being tied to an active rocket. And on Cat Ninja Specials: The House Trap Part 1, he even stopped himself from sliding into the shark pit.
* **Feline Free Fall**- A type of cat instinct Cat Ninja uses to land on his feet. On The Great Hamster Heist (Cat Ninja, Chapter 1), he landed on a fish box with this technique, and on The Night Of The Cuckoo, Elan told that his height limit is five stories, but Cat Ninja proved him wrong.
* **Acrobatics and Swift Movement/Dodging Efficiency**- Cat Ninja is nimble, quick moving, and flexible. He has a chance of dodging efficiency, few examples are unlike getting grabbed from behind in Cat Ninja: Cat's Claw, Mystery of the Cat's Claw, Part 2, and being beaten by Goldfather's fish minion in As Quiet as a... Cat Ninja.
	+ **Lightning Defense-** Cat Ninja used defensive skills, enabling him to block or dodge lightning, as depicted in (Cat Ninja: Ch 4).
* **Animalistic Noises**- Cat Ninja is obviously an anthropomorphic animal, which he can create feline noises at cost.
* **Disguise**-He can disguise into his alternate ego called ***Cat Crimer*** on Time Heist and Cat Ninja Specials, which this disguise can create villains dumbfounded during Elan's Party. He may wear during Villain occasions such as the Villain Race.
* **Weapon Proficiency**- After being trained from Cat Lady, he has sharp aim with weapons such as a kunai and shuriken. Cat Ninja even properly uses a nunchuck and Bō staff, and other types of traditional ninja-type weapons for battle. He uses asian-stylized weaponry, which is traditional to the Cat's Claw Clan.
* **Sensible Ears-** With all cats having sensible ears, Cat Ninja could hear anything around him, especially anything suspicious. Cat Ninja's whiskers aren't sensible or maybe hasn't been shown yet.
	+ **Driving skills-** Cat Ninja is able to Drive Watercraft, Aircraft, and other vehicles that appear in the series is a skill that Cat Ninja has learned. It's unclear if Cat Ninja automatically picked up driving skills on his own or if he learnt them from Cat Lady.
* **Hyper Ambidexterity-** Cat Ninja has Ambidexterity, which meant that Cat Ninja uses his left and right hands equally well. With proof, Cat Ninja often uses his Nunchuck in the left and could switch to his right.

## Quotes Throughout The Series

**CAT NINJA TIME HEIST: Chapter 5: ESCAPE FROM... THE FUTURE!:** Cat Ninja didn't REALLY spoke to his original voice, but whispered to Hoot that he was proud of her heroic efforts, and also says that he'll miss her as his final goodbye. Master Hamster noticed he was talking, and questioned him as he did.

**Cat Ninja: Wanted! Part 5: The Final Countdown!:** After defeating Malice's created Cat and Hamster clones, Master Hamster thanks Cat Ninja for not leaving him as betrayal, Cat Ninja thanked him back by speaking, revealing his full true voice.

And the result, Cat Ninja spoke to the Cat's Claw leader with furious emotion.

Exploded by Le Chat's Bauble-Disguised Bombs, he lost one ski, and he was left with the other ski remaining. Afterwards, he outsmarted her by slicing a twig in half, resulting her stolen jewelry to fall on a steep cliff. The skis are only used once on the series.
