Arilero

Arilero is, in a word, loyal. He's always there at Mother's (Renoth's) side, listening with head cocked, and has learned to recognize a wide range of "concepts" that he can act upon. He can fetch anyone in the Clan by just being told to "Fetch Keeper" or "Fetch Bolt" or so on (the nicknames seem to be how he thinks of the others, as opposed to their real names), and can bring them anything small enough to be either held in his mouth or clipped to a collar around his neck. He can, and often does, fetch Lead (Darasath) without being told to, just from the tone of voice that Mother is using when talking to others.

Beyond the various tricks Arilero has learned in order to please Mother and make her life easier, he's also gotten it into his head that Mother (and by extension Lead and the entirety of the Clan) need to be "taken care of". He'll nag Mother by pawing at her and making soft little mrowl noises if he thinks she's stayed up too late, or needs to eat, or something like that (he'll make a different noise for each one, too!). He also has a tendency to gravitate towards anyone in the Clan who's feeling down, and tries to provide comfort to them. And, if anyone he doesn't know "invades" their territory, Arilero is quick to sound a short series of warning barks to alert the rest.

Arilero simply showed up one day, a bit bedraggled, a little skinny, and with hugely cute eyes. Not being able to say no to something that looked like that, Renoth took it in, fed it up, and gained a loyal companion for all time. Everyone in the Clan has a tendency to call Arilero a "he", despite the fact that it's a neuter, but more out of the same concept of calling a spayed or neutered cat a female or male still.
