08-04-05, 09:19 AM I'm making a new character who is from a broken catfolk tribe and is attempting to restore the tribe while getting his revenge on those who broke it, but that's the beside the point. One of the big role playing factors for catfolk is their native american backgrounds and their wildly different personalities, these really drew me to making one. However, I'm having a hard time thinking of good ideas for the tokens and trinkets they acquire throughout their lives. I'm well aware they can be anything that has significant meaning to the particular catfolk, I'm just having trouble getting any interesting ideas for random "junk" that might have a special meaning. If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it.

08-04-05, 09:52 AM Think about the people he care about:

1. A pearl from his mother necklace;
2. A wooden shard from his father longspear;
3. A lock of hair from his first girlfriend;

Think about some events in his life:

4. His first milk tooth;
5. A claw from the first animal he hunted;
6. A rope segment from the first shack he built;

Think about spirituality:

7. A raven feather to think about the god of death;
8. A badger ear to think about the god of war;
9. A metallic goblet to think about the god of trade;

drat, you beat me to it.

Perhaps try the take on shifters in eberron, and have beads in your hair to show your accomplishments, warrior beads if you will.

I'm not terribly familiar with Eberron, please forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean?
