[Name~ Jemimah
[Gender~ Female
[Type~ Animal
[Species~ Grizzly Bear
[Age~ 21 animal years
[Position~ Could be considered Kindest Captor ever
[Lifestyle~ Just inherited a big farm so farmer of a kind
[Residence~ Blossom Farm at Doveville
[Description~ This girly is no usual bear in her sizes. Grizzly females are supposed to be quite smaller than the males but Jemi can compete with some smaller males quite easily - she is about 2.20 meters tall when stands on her powerful hind legs. She towers over the most of creatures easily, especially as in the times animals has walked on two legs, her kind has developed a better skills at standing and walking. But when one looks in her deep brown eyes, only kindness and friendliness will be seen in them.
Actually, she could look very intimidating with her sharp and long claws, good for digging and huge built but she has such a strange innocence and silliness aura that it is hard to believe she could hurt a fly, not even speaking about something bigger or something that could protest. In fact, she is rather clumsy most of the time, as if this body was just not her own and she wouldn't know how to deal with it sometimes. She tends to trip over most obvious things and her pads are often bruised as she runs over anything, not looking how sharp it could actually be. She is rarely cautious of her surroundings or danger around her.
Her expressions can be unbelievably childish and absolutely not expected from someone her sized and as old as her. Her grins, her tears, pouts - they all are somewhat silly and childish, especially that way she tilts her head and looks at everything curiously as if she sees it for first time, even if it's her own reflection. Except her hateful and truly angered expressions. Then the beast within her is released and she shows all the horrible strength and power she possesses. Thankfully, they are very rarely seen and it should stay that way.
Other than this, she is very normal, with proportional body, big, round ears and medium sized muzzle. In her mouth, there are many strong teeth as her jaws are good for tearing things apart... Especially if that thing is somebody's flesh. But her size is not made by her legs who are actually short (But very well muscled) compared to rest of her body - it is her rest of her that makes her so tall. Her forelegs are very skillful and she can do almost everything as human could - push and raise things even if they're tiny, capture them.
Also, in her coat color, she is quite casual. Dark brown is the main color of her pelt, lightening to creamy white at her underside. Her neck and back of her head shares similar color, too. There are no other splotches of colors on her fur, except shades of brown - her back legs are darker brown, for example. And it is quite thick, especially in winter, preventing her from freezing and it is nice to bury your frozen fingers in it as some humans has found out.
[Personality~ Jemi is very simple and very complicated in the same time. Simple because most of the time she is just a huge kid who often has hard time understanding even simple things and statements. But sometimes, when something triggers her anger or displeasure, she will grow cunning and smart, able to deceive even the wisest of people. Partly it is because no one expects her to be able to do such things or think that way but the fact still stands. But mostly, she is a mix of both these sides and to keep her in control, you must watch her every second, not even blinking because who knows how she will think of slipping away or making you blink.
She is a curious girl, liking to find out everything about everything but most of the time, her memory is short and she will have to ask the same questions about the same things every month, if not every week. Simply, what is not needed right now, is deleted from her mind. Usually, she lacks interest to keep doing the same thing for a longer time and she is quite hyper, rarely being at peace. Even in sleep, her paws tend to twitch occasionally. But when she truly sets her mind of something, she won't forget it and do it, even if it might take years for her to do. Yes, she will grow frustrated with it often but still continuing doing so as she is terribly stubborn.
This she-bear can act normal for a while but is boring for her and hard to achieve, especially as she is used to talk about her in third person. Jemimah is also very friendly and talkative and sometimes even seems naīve, seemingly trusting everybody in matter of second. But some never gains her trust or her liking and she will show it openly. Mostly, she is very straightforward, not seeing reason to hide her emotions. Also, her way of logics and thinking, ethics and other such things is quite strange and twisted, differing from normal ones very much.
Because of that, she has no shame and will ask things that no one else would dare to voice and act the way that would make other die of embarrassment. She is also very peaceful and even kind, especially towards human kind who she loves with her whole, big, silly heart. But if you make her snap, you will have a monster that won't spare anyone or anything and go for the kill, almost enjoying it. It is surprising but she actually likes bloody sights if it's the animal suffering - she really does think 99,9% of animals are evil even if they pretend to be nice. She does not enjoy killing in most cases, though.
Jemi doesn't really realize how strong she is so if she hugs you, it could be as well deadly hug because she might accidentally crush your bones. She tries to be gentle but in her hyper way of thinking she just can't keep thinking of it all the time. She hardly understands the concept of word "friendship" and will probably consider you friend only if you do as she pleases but those have earned her full trust and care are truly blessed for she will protect them with all she have got. She is even somewhat clingy to them.
As with all mentally ill creatures, it is quite impossible to write every little detail of her mind - there are just too many dark corners, traps, twists and turns into it. So, one of best things one can remember around her is - she is not as stupid as she looks like and you better should be careful around her.
[Wardrobe~ Jemi doesn't like to wear clothes as they make it hard to move and she dirtied them often when was smaller, Sometimes she will wear flowery dresses and jewelry but she looks silly in them and as some younger human children has openly told her so, she truly avoids putting them on. At normal circumstances, she will be wearing only some bracelet or things of that sort.
[History~ Jemi was born in unusual family. Her mother was rich but just as strange as her, to say the least, and it is no doubt her mental disturbance is inherited from there but her father was a rich farmer at Doveville. Now no one can tell what was true reason of this marriage - business or true love. Maybe mix of both because Amaya, mother of Jemi, was a beautiful bear and her innocence and cuteness allured many. Only one male could stand her true nature, though.
The pair lived somewhat happily for about ten years and some started to believe Amaya was getting better with her illness but all the progress was ruined with their two daughters birth. Yes, there was one alive and one dead cub born in this family but it wasn't far from that none would have seen next morning. Pain and shock of giving birth as well as knowing that one them wasn't really normal (That is - not breathing) made Amaya have one of her mental fits and with her crushing hugs she almost killed Jemimah as well. Her husband was only one that could make Amaya calm down a little, enough to put her to sleep for a while and take the cubs away from her. It didn't help anything, though, because young mother continued to look for her children as soon as she woke and with every passing hour she went a bit more insane. In the end, she had to be put away in safer area as she was bound to hurt her and those around her in her mindless state.
Heartbroken, the lone male clung to their daughter as his last hope so he spoiled her quite much for the few first years of her life. The little female looked much alike his much like dead wife and he had hope she wouldn't have inherited the mental problems her mother had. Unfortunately, they appeared very quickly and disappointed, even more hurt and even somewhat disgusted, he ordered to take Jemimah out of his sight. So, little Jemi started to live with some maids and her caretaker in some farm far away from the city where she grew up peacefully.
Her caretaker was one of Rebellion Sympathizers and in secret, she taught she-bear that humans were good and nice even if weaker - creatures she had to take care of and protect. In fact, Jemi often played with human children so she loved them from early childhood. In this easy, happy pattern her life went until she turned eighteen when her father requested her to go to the city. Around this time, her mind had developed to about that of twelve years old with some always to be childish traits and one of them was dislike towards her father. Somehow, the rumors she had heard made him seem evil, old and cruel in her childish mind. Yet, she obliged to his wishes on her caretaker's pleas.
City horrified her. All the humans enslaved, beaten up and hated made her tremble in horror and despise animals that could do such thing, making her hate for her father grow even stronger. But she hid it well, knowing that her caretaker, her closest person in this world, would be upset if she showed her true thoughts. Jemimah did what her father ordered her for a while - learned lot of boring things, acted somewhat normal, etc. but behind his back she was creating terrible plan.
Like I mentioned previously, creatures like her often seem idiotic while they actually are very cunning - no one expects them to be near as intelligent as they are in reality. The same went for Jemi, that's why her scheming was a complete success - her father died and another animal she strongly disliked was put to death because found guilty in the murder. She never regretted her job, the fact she killed her own dad - she simply never understood it was bad. After all, he was bad for treating humans so and she was only punishing him the way someone had to. The concept of bad and good had never been clear to her, anyway.
Jemi also had done enough for "good girl" act before to make her father leave the farm to her as it was not planned previously. Now she could realize wish of her caretaker (The old female has passed away about year before Jemimah did her bloody work) - create a place where humans could live freely, fortress for those who liked humans, somewhere where they would be able to start revolution. And now she is saving more and more humans from houses near and not so near her.
[Family~ Parents decesead, no siblings
[Mate~ None
[Children~ None
[Color~ Post, "Her Speech", "Her thoughts", "Other Speech"
[Other~ Jemi loves humans (But I am sure you already know that). Her huge farm where only few trustworthy animals work is full with humans but not in a working way. They just live there as any free animal could. If they want to work, the work (And being thankful to Jemi and knowing if they work the wealthier they will live, most of them do), if they want to lazy around, they relax. It is a small paradise for humans, ruled by this bear.
Often, she goes out in secret to other farms and houses to steal humans away. No one knows where they actually go and that's why many rumors are spreading around but not even one is close to the truth. Actually, if she sees any human she will most likely pick him or her up and carry to her home, not really caring what it was doing. She will be a bit more careful if there are any other creatures around, though.
The house where they all live is quite isolated from rest of the world and no one can imagine that the mentally ill she-bear could be doing something of that sorts so for now, she and her humans are perfectly safe. Her loved collection is quite large already. About 25 people, in fact. And it seems like it will keep growing for a while.
She has "inherited" her farm only about half year-year ago so her rides of freeing humans hasn't been that often and missing humans are truly noticed just now.
Also, she doesn't trust Rebellion animals even if she stands on Rebellion's side.
There is nothing much else to say about her. She is used to be called Jemi and calls her self that way, too as her full name always was sued only by her father or when she was going to get scolded so she dislikes it quite much. That really seems to be pretty much everything needed to be noted down here.
