Kit was found at a temple for Sarenrae as a cub, abandoned by her parents for reasons known only to them. This fact no apparent effect on Kit, as she grew up among her fellow orphans with a endless curiosity about everything except her parents. This curiosity led her to explore everywhere, and by the age of 6 she knew every hidey-hole and every secret passage in the temple, and had terrified the priesthood by being discovered halfway up the outside of temple's bell-tower.
After exploring the temple, Kit soon turned to sneaking around for kicks. She had discovered that she was a member of a rather uncommon race, and people would react she she hoped when she suddenly jumped out of a closet. She also became adept at swiping goodies from the kitchen, but managed to escape most of the ire these events generated by sharing the goodies with the right people. Many a time did Sister Diana storm into a room looking for a plate of cookies that had vanished to discover a priest enjoying one, and a obvious lack of Kit in the room, despite the fact that she was in the room right up to the moment the door was opened.
When she turned eighteen, Kit was given the standard offer to join the temple as a sister, and there where a few sighs of relief from the priests when she turned it down. A few days later, she was ready to leave the temple for good, and with her few possessions in a bag, she set out, giving Sister Diana a cookie before disappearing into the crowds.
Since then, she has wandered the world, seeing the wonders of the world, and helping several adventuring parties along the way. She usually parted company with them in good terms, excepting the times when her boundless curiosity got the party into more trouble than necessary. During her wanders, she has heard tales of an impossible dungeon, said to have treasure beyond measure, and containing traps of lethal design. With every story heard, Kit's urge to explore grew, and now she believes that she is ready to take on any challenge, be it trap, magic, or foe, and come out on top.
After all, a thing is only impossible because nobody has done it yet.
