<br>Thomas has a problem with authority. Yes he will deliver on an assignment he is paid for, but he isn't sucking up to anyone. He will counter disrespect with more disrespect. He will make it known he will complete a job his way. Period. Otherwise go hire a scab like Bolt.<br><br>

<br>Catman is not a mercenary for the money. He doesn't gear up witgh a giant cat robot to rob banks (anymore). He undertakes various contracts to make enough to live. Usually the assignments are in a morally gray area at worst. He often is only partially successful because he sees something really wrong going on he won't allow. Several colleagues have remarked that Thomas wants to be a hero deep down. Of course his vengeful tendencies and womanizing don't make him a paladdin.<br><br>

<br>Many of his friends and associates can be described as "murderous psychotics". Despite this, Catman gets along well in a group lunatics. He is often the glue allowing such a group to work together. He provides an anchor for the more violent and unruly members. It's similar to the rapport the Joker enjoys with the deranged, except Catman doesn't manipulate them or use them as tools (and probably couldn't go that far). He merely gets them to act somewhat normally.<br><br>

<br>This only really works with lions. Lions accept him as a pride leader, somehow. He has a non-verbal communication with them. It's not going to let him use them to perform complex operations in a heist (and he would not). They will have his back and his enemies become their enemies. The opposite is also true. Other animals seem to like him on sight.<br><br>

<br>Catman's olfactory sense is honed to peak human levels by living with lions. He can recognize a person by scent at short range. He has tracked targets by scent. This is not a power so much as a skill but it is again peak human.

<br>This is Catman's salient ability. He is called the best tracker on Earth. Not detective, Batman and others are better thsn him. Catman will get you, once he sets his eye on you.

I the wild he can traqck a person or animal for days based on their spoor and tracks.
