Dahlia Yinbai

A life of intrigue, mystery, and excitement.

Senator Dahlia Sarita Yinbai (a.k.a. Sadie, Daly)

Childhood

Being born from two nekojin parents, she was automatically a nekojin and, a part of the nekojin community. When she was growing up, she didn't understand why whenever she turned into a cat, everyone around her would gasp and quickly move away, while kids looked at her with wide eyes. She also, no matter how hard her parents tried to keep her at least kind of quiet, was always asking questions. This caused a problem with all of her human teachers who didn't want to teach Nekojin anyway

Quotes From Her

"This great nation needs to stop with all the racism against nekojin and werecreatures!"
from Dahlia to the public before she started running for office.
"Dragonians, can I get real for a second? Our world is changing and we need to change with it. Racism was and still, is a massive problem. Did you know that as a child a saw a masked gunman, gun down a group of nekojin and werecreatures? That is why I'm running for office, that is what I'm trying to stop.
From Dahlia after announcing she was running for office.

Quotes About Or To Her

"People aren't going to like this, Sadie and you know that. Nekojin are unpopular and just being one means you can get hate mail. You know that. How do you think you're going to stand a chance, in an election against elves and humans?"
from Julian Lakrem (a friend) to Dahlia after she announced she was running for office.
"Has the world gone mad! What have we come to, electing a nekojin (he said the word hatefully) as are a senator!"
from Secretary Henderson Mingtai to the press.

You can use the BB code to make quotes into actual standing out pieces of text, like this [ quote ] here would be the quote [ /quote ] just without the spaces between the bracket and the word quote. It can just make the quotes pop a little, as right now they do blend into one a little bit.   I feel like it definitely could use some expanding; where did she come from? Why did she get interested in politics, and what are some struggles she faced? Answering those can definitely just add some depth to the entry.
