Physical Attributes
The first thing one notices when Catriona enters the room is her height. She stands taller than most ladies, at an impressive 5'8" without heels. This makes it easy for her to look men in the eye when she speaks with them. Unfortunately, it is not often that their eyes meet hers. Instead, they are drawn to a most bountiful sight provided by the low cut gowns and tight corsets of the day’s fashion. A pity, really, since it is her eyes that she feels are her best feature. The deep sapphire blue of her eyes, surrounded by thick lashes, darkens when angered and lightens when amused, readily giving away her mood. Her hair is a rich chestnut, in which hides startling auburn highlights, giving away her Scottish heritage almost as easily as the brogue that sometimes slips into her voice when she loses control of her speech pattern. Her nose is straight, almost knifelike, much like the dark, thin brows that perch upon her brow. Her skin is her biggest physical flaw, as it carries a kiss of the sun upon it, quite unlike the pale complexions favored by other ladies of the court.
Most noticeably Cat is pregnant with the King's child. The child is due in early July.
Initial Impression of Personality
Cat, as she is known by her friends and family, is a beautiful girl of many moods and looks. At times she is a joy to be around; amusing friends and strangers alike with a quick wit and a way with poetry. At those times she is like a living ray of heavenly light. Other times, she can be found cutting a bloody verbal swath through idiots who think her nothing more than a pretty bauble to be seduced away. Those times, she appears a dark she-devil, sent by Lucifer himself to drag the poor sinner into the deepest, darkest pits of Hell.
Reputation
The Scottish Catriona Gillian MacGregor, Countess of Alyth and Royal Mistress to His Majesty Charles II, is an acknowledged court beauty. The lady is temperamental, a touch overbearing even, yet considered to be among the leading charitable matrons, kind and friendly to all so that often her dramatics are forgiven. Her influence at court is said to be considerable. Some say so is her greed.
Background
Cat is currently married to Adam MacGregor,the Earl of Alyth, and is the mistress of Charles II. Cat's illegitimate older brother is Douglas FitzJames. He is currently assigned as her guard, partially in punishment for childhood issues. Cat is trying to fix their relationship. She is also attempting to open her own tea shop on the Strand.
Residence
When in Town, Lady Alyth resides with her husband in Pall Mall.
