She has a cabin, but usually sleeps on a spare mattress in the engine-room. There, she can hear the rhythm and rumble of the engine, and wake when it hiccups. Her cats have all found favourite places among the machinery and pipework.[1]

The Felined Eccentric, as her name implies, is a restless mechanic menaced by her three "cats".

Origins

Like several other denizens of the heavens, the Felined Eccentric has been fundamentally reshaped by the depths of Piranesi. Before her stay at the Eleutherian prison she was known as the Watcher- a powerful spirit that judged the shades at the White Well. Her three 'cats' (Asmoday, Paimon and Beleth) are each a remnant of the being that she once was.[2][3]

As someone who, before Piranesi, had a form generally masculine,[4] and whose true form, once she had any choice in the matter, is feminine,[3] the Felined Eccentric is undeniably trans.
