Catalyst

### Relatives

Dick (Father, Formerly), Unknown Mother (Formerly), Cadmus (Caretaker, Formerly), Fritz (Half Brother)

## Appearance

**Catalyst Tenebris** is a young Imp mii with an appearance similar to the Goat Costume. They have tan skin, black hair, and one red eye and one blue eye. It has cat-like pupils in both eyes. They also have blue eye shadow (slightly darker than the blue eye), thick eyebrows, and round red glasses. On the right side of its face, they have an oddly shaped scar and a mole. It also has a pair of red, somewhat twisty horns, a (possibly fake) skull on their head, and a pair of black, feathery, wings. They also have hooves for feet. It also notably has a thin tail with a teardrop point at the end, along with various scars on their body.

## Personality

Being a Cool mii, Catalyst is fairly confident, nonchalant, and even can be rude or prideful at times. However, this is partially a cover for their real personality, as deep down they highly care for others, especially those they're closest to (ex: Fritz, Bacchus, Cadmus). It also does have many insecurities and fears deep down, especially about being seen as weaker or not enough for others. They do try to shrug off these fears, but it doesn't always work, as seen during the Darkest Lord battle. A lot of their confidence is fake, only acting like that to get others to not worry as much.

## Relationships

### Phoenix

Phoenix was the first team member Catalyst met, so naturally they bonded closely. Despite Catalyst being occasionally harsh to him, the two do really care for eachother, as evidenced by Phoenix taking the damage of some attacks for Catalyst multiple times or the two hugging tightly after the defeat of the Catalyst Demon boss.

### Vera

Not much is known about Catalyst and Vera's relationship, but the two do seem to be very close friends, seeing as they both like mischief, along with Vera's worry upon realizing Catalyst was still imprisoned in the Dark Lord's castle. They also appear to be very competitive with eachother, especially when playing competitive games, albeit this is only a friendly rivalry.

### Ion

Once again, Ion and Catalyst's relationship is not well known, but the two appear to be pretty close, with Catalyst going out of their way to protect Ion a few times along with Ion worrying about Catalyst's safety in the Dark Lord's Castle.

### Orchid

Orchid and Catalyst are incredibly close (albeit only meeting in the Dark Lord's Castle), as they are QPPS (Queer Platonic Partners), with their relationship being somewhat on the border of romantic and platonic. They appear to trust eachother quite a lot, as Orchid lets Catalyst see his scarred eye. Orchid also likes to jokingly tease Catalyst about their crush on Bacchus (much to Catalyst's dismay).

### Fritz

Fritz and Catalyst are extremely close, due to realizing that the two are half brothers upon meeting in the Dark Lord's Castle. Upon learning this, Catalyst became incredibly protective of Fritz, helping him and caring for them as if they've known eachother for longer, sort of forming a "big brother instinct" in them. Catalyst also tends to blame themself for Fritz getting hurt.

### Bacchus

Catalyst and Bacchus are also extremely close, possibly being the one Catalyst is the closest to out of all characters despite only meeting in the Dark Lord's Castle. The two were the very best of friends for a while, before developing actual crushes on eachother and later dating and becoming boyfriends. The two are very protective of eachother, notably with Bacchus healing Catalyst often and Catalyst using Charm on him as well.

## Trivia

* Notably, Catalyst's Miitomo/Tomodachi Life personality is set to Outgoing Leader, despite the "Leader" part being debatable if it fits their personality at all, with Charmer or Entertainer fitting more.
* Bacchus is known to call them "Cat" at times.
* They and Fritz were created before they were confirmed to be brothers.
* Catalyst's name is a word that can mean "an action or person that precipitates/causes a major event". This is fitting, as they were the first teammate to be recruited, being the *catalyst* for the creation of Team Volt. This also fits their father's view of them, as he believed that Catalyst would cause something horrible.
* Catalyst's (and by proxy, Fritz's) last name, Tenebris, is also Latin for "dark", fitting the dark magic they both inherit as they are both Imps.
