Evelyn had found a stray cat who was badly hurt in the cold fall weather. She scooped up the stray black cat, bringing them home and nursing them back to health. The cat grew close to Evelyn; imprinting on her. The odd thing about this cat was that his fur was once fully black; but after using some magic that Evelyn had learned; the cat had streaks of purple, and both eyes had gone from yellow-- to purple. Evelyn chose to make this cat her Familiar, giving him a name...

"I shall name you--Naveh!" Evelyn said. Naveh mewed happily, now having a name.

Over the years, Naveh had been given the ability to talk, and to use magic; becoming a helpful familiar to Evelyn, doing everything from reading incantations to giving Evelyn the ingredients to a potion or a spell.

But the happy times didn't last long......

One day; some cruel Monster hunters caught wind of Evelyn being a witch with a familiar that was considered as an" Abomination" to them. A knock at the door was heard; as Evelyn opened the door..... She was tackled by hunters. She fought them off as everything turned to chaos; Naveh tried to help defend his master; but ended up being stabbed by a hunter and tossed against a piece of furniture, breaking his paw and giving him a gash on his head as he coughed, feeling his ribs snap.

 Soon; Evelyn had been impaled by a broken piece of railing, she was mortally wounded.....

"Don't cry, my child....." she rasped, coughing up blood as she tried to comfort Naveh. 

Naveh laid weak; tears forming in his eyes.

With the last of her strength, Evelyn formed a seal of a demon in the palm of her hand.

"May Marbas Guide you... My Familiar......" Evelyn said, raising her arm to conjure the seal that transferred to Naveh, before Evelyn let out her last breath of life and passed on.......

"Everything will be alright, I shall let you live again....." Marbas' voice said, his ghostly forme placed the direct seal onto Naveh's head.

Naveh felt pain as his bones cracked and shifted, losing fur and growing taller... larger....

more powerful......

A burst of light shone forth, turning the once alive home into Rubble. 

Marbas took control of the former familiar's bare, furless, tall form, wrapping a tattered cloak around Naveh's body.

Naveh was in a possession-induced trance, dazed and soon stumbling into an alleyway, cold rain dousing him, as his legs soon gave out and he slid against a brick wall, giving out into a peaceful sleep.

*Pat Pat*

"Hey."

*Pat Pat*

"Hey, wake up...."

a voice said.

Naveh slowly opened his eyes, the side of his face being tapped to try and rouse him, and he saw the blurry form of a lady with dirty blonde hair with pink streaks. 

"There we go, come on....." the lady said, lending out a hand to Naveh.

Naveh let out a weak groan, being slightly carried by this woman....

Soon..... Naveh felt the coldness and exhaustion get to him, as he gave out any last inch of lucidity.

All he knew now is that he had lost everything.........
