origin story

catelin was the second born child in her family, making her the first of four girls behind her older brother. her mother, lynn, was always the more even-keeled of her parents, working first as a high school sexual education teacher before moving into administration of a private school district ages p-12 over four campuses. her father, miles, has been in construction his whole life and now runs his own business. miles has always been a survivalist, believing that one day there will be complete economic collapse, civil unrest and breakdown of government. because of this, he's raised all of his children to fend for themselves both in the wilderness and urban settings. it comes as no surprise that cate wound up being a fairly outdoorsy child and adult - loving camping, hiking and being in nature - and taking to her father's strange training very fast. she even has bug-out bags in her car and her home. she has always been very close with her siblings, having pretty great and unique relationships with each one of them. but it remains that her closest friend has been and always will be her cousin, austen glover.

trial & tribulation

cate was always a bit of an over-achiever, especially in high school - a trait really only paralleled or topped by her female bestie liz kaldwell. she was nerdy, beyond compare, going so far as to being the dedicated dungeon master of her party. however cate and liz always had a very close bond, planning their lives far beyond high school including which colleges they would attend, the jobs they would have together and how they would raise their very eventual kids together. however all those plans changed when in her sophomore year, cate began dating an upperclassman exchange student from mexico in advacnced placement courses in physics and astronomy named matias escalera. headstrong and impetuous, cate and mat married way too soon and it seemed like the marriage never truly had a chance to work.

come ups & set backs

she followed her husband to stanford, with high hopes of an engineering degree, then continued to follow him across the country to philadelphia. the abuse began so slowly that she barely noticed it. emotional and psychological abuse, brainwashing, isolation, gaslighting all became common place in their relationship. cate's academic life also fell apart as mat succeeded at penn and cate struggled to finish a degree in accounting. socially, he did not allow her to stay out past certain hours or spend time with men, and her only friend became a girl in their building who sold her weed. and after a complete breakdown of communication - and secret night between cate and liz's brother beau - the couple divorced in early 2011.

the abyss

over the next few years, cate would bounce between jobs, homes and relationships before settling in the bay area again, with a new fiance and job working for jelly belly. and while most of her relationships with family members and friends had improved from her toxic marriage, that would soon go out the window when she and her ex rekindled - despite her new engagement. everything began to fall apart once more in 2014 after her fiance found out about her cheating and left her. cate found herself dealing with a lot deeper and more intense abuse this time around, sometimes towing the line of sexual and physical. in early 2015 she found out she was pregnant - something she never wanted with mat, deep down. but she attributes this pregnancy with saving her life, helping her see things more clearly, and within two month's of strider's birth in october, she officially left mat.

resurrection

now - after a string of odd jobs and living situations - cate finds herself back on her feet financially, moving into her own home, and working for an international luxury real estate company. she is in the process of petitioning for full custody of her son after an incident where her exhusband was arreste for assault. and she is finally in a stable, committed relationship with old play thing, beau kaldwell. she still maintains her nerdy hobbies, like reading tarot, streaming video games and making and selling her own d&d dice on etsy. she is mommy to strider & sir charles
