This reminds me of a character I used to play as, Drifter! Unfortunately, she died because of the RP, though she was a blind tortoiseshell adolescent she-cat. She spoke with a pirate accent, as did the rest of her crew. One day, though, she got lost. Her crew smelled of the sea, so she followed the scent, until she felt the camp again (she could tell by the scents, and she knew where everything in the camp was located). The camp had evacuated (likely due to an attack, as the group was basically a gang of rogues who'd attack others for fun/food), so Drifter assumed they'd come back, and waited in her den for them to return. They never did, and Drifter waited there for them until her death. (She continued to wait, because she swore loyalty to them, and would rather die than abandon them.)
It was insanely fun to play as her! I have another blind character, his name is Galaxy. I've never had a chance to RP as him before, though.
