Lion's Old Name: Ukweli (Truths)
Lion's New Name: Siri (Secrets)
Lion's Image: Siri
Lion's Info: (Wondering if the fungus hallucinogen could make a lioness go mad? I'd love for Siri to be an extreme religious zealot who highly believes in the spirits and wants to please them anyway possible.)

She'll come to the pride believing in spirits (I'll do an rp where one of my pilgrims from the original swamp days talks of them fondly) and wanting to know more about them she heads to swamps and finds the new pride. She's already pretty unstable and the fungus dose will wake up a kind of mental illness where she will believe she can hear spirits in her everyday. I'd like for her to breed and sacrifice every single one of her cubs because to her the spirits demand it and it must be done. She's religious to an extreme and wont stand for people talking ill of the swamps or the spirits that reside there.

The fungus wouldn't cause madness on it's own, but ould potentially be a trigger that exacerbates underlying issues. That being said, while the pride is very morally gray and has some very out-there beliefs and individuals, there would be a limit to their tolerance for outright madness. If she became clearly mentally ill, the Wanaanga would likely attempt to try to find some kind of remedy, and when that didn't work, so long as she didn't become violent/dangerous to the pride, they'd try to just sort of take care of her as best they could and keep an eye on her.

Sacrificing her cubs is definitely something wouldn't go over well. Pride members are only sacrificed if they're willing adults, and in that case they would most likely be old, sick, or injured, and looking for an honorable, useful death.

Lion's Old Name: Kimeti
Lion's New Name: Éirí Beoga
Lion's Image: [x]
Lion's Info: The flower-loving, sweet-tempered, slow-moving son of former Swampies, Éirí left the swamps long ago as Kimeti in order to find his adult name. He took a long time, but he's finally found it after encounters with demons, sea-goers, and spirits know what else! He wasn't at all expecting what he came home to, however...

[[I think his colors are swampie enough?]]

Kitsune Mistress Nyoko

Hey, I was here already!
Username: Kitsune Mistress Nyoko
Lion's Name: Ndugu wa Mzazi
Lion's Image: Uncert
Lion's Info: Ndugu is the rogue born son of the murder victim Adhabu-shinda and joined the Swampies well into adulthood. While he's still settling after the move to the mountain, he feels very much at home among the Swampies but is... Well, he's a little bit awkward and naive. He'd very much want to sign on with an adventure to the swamps he first joined up in, and while he may not hold any radical beliefs, separated from the rest of the pride, he could be easy to mold and manipulate. Combined with his old blood, this could make him an ideal candidate for Siyarin, even if he likely only falls under "acceptable" coloration. While he might eventually get cold feet when he realizes what's really going on, he'd likely be terrified to ever speak up about it or try to leave. Conversely, if he was fed the right ideas, he could also be swayed to wholeheartedly agree with Siyarin. Really, it would depend heavily on just what direction roleplay/plotting took. He was probably given the Important Duty of Anakesha as a way to nudge him further into wholeheartedly accepting the beliefs of the new pride.
Desired Rank: Anakesha

Lion's Image:

Lion's Info: She's relatively blank, tbh. She never felt like she 'fit in' in the mountain, so she never bothered to try to find her true name and return home. Whispers of life in the swamps intrigued her, and she would get her new name after the joining process.

Approved, of course! (sis says hello welcome.)

Lion's Info: He's been a blank slate since he was rehomed to me, but he's carried a certain sense of melancholy. Figure he can reinvent himself here among the more dire swampies, so long as his colors pass the test.
