The Secret that Chou would like to tell you

In the house where she was found, the maid had brought in a stray cat for the house's owner, hoping that the pet would get rid of whatever it was that lived under the sink.   Until that day, Chou had appeared inert. No one had seen her do anything.   When the cat poked Chou with a clawed paw, the ooze acted in self-defense. Thus the cat had a heart attack when Chou actually moved. She felt bad about the incident. But instead of letting the escaping ki go to waste, Chou slurped up the nutrients, leaving charred remains.   She blames the maid for the death of the cat.

Intellectual Characteristics

Intelligence of a toddler, possibly higher.

Morality & Philosophy

No known morality, other than fierce protection of her favorite person.
