My ears and tail are no prop, they're real. Proof of my Kätzlein bloodline.
The Kätzlein Bloodline, also called the Kätzlein Lineage, is a family that has been in Springvale for at least three hundred years, where the hunter Olaf lived before being accidentally preserved in ice. They are a line of renowned hunters, from Olaf to his descendant, Draff.
History[]
They are a family who are well known for their feline features, as well as their hunting prowess.[1] Skills such as infiltration, archery, climbing, and dodging come naturally to members of the bloodline.[2] They have keen eyes[1] that are able to see well in the dark, as well as heightened senses such as hearing and smell. The feline features of members of the Kätzlein bloodline are exceedingly rare in Mondstadt, leading Dr. Edith to write about them in "Studies of Bloodlines Strange and Unfamiliar."[2] Diona falsely claims that everyone in the Kätzlein lineage has a Vision, but she is the only member known to have one.[3] Sucrose, a young woman with similar cat-like features, often wondered if she had shared ancestry with Diona, and many people would ask her about it. Through observation, she determined that her feline features were of a similar genome to the Kätzleins but a different ancestry.[4]
