This is one strange character. I apparently have a soft spot for cheetah centaurs, but this one managed to evolve into a personality of her own that I can't grasp entirely. The name is really from the words 'Cheetah Amazon', but I find that somehow it really fits her. It is also a dedication to several people. Someone who wanted to see a centauress, someone who likes unusual piercings and hairdos and someone who is in tune with nature, all special friends of mine.
