Character Name: Kimya
Character Rank: Scout
Character Background/Personality: A lion who only speaks rarely, Kimya is silent on his paws. He's always been this way, even as a cub, rarely crying but instead just along for the ride of whatever his siblings were up to. He didn't much like the roguelands, though his family very much preferred the nomadic life, so as soon as he was able to he struck out to find a pride to join. It so happened to be the Pridelands, where he found he could seamlessly fit in and blend with the crowd. He's found being a scout suits him quite well, as it lets him be as silent as he likes to keep track of any who might cause problems.

Character Name: Mkondo
Character Rank: Nanny
Character Background/Personality: Mkondo, along with her littermates, was born somewhere in the roguelands near a seasonal source of water. Many of them were named for the area, from the grass(Nyasi), the bushes their mother used as a den(Kichaka), and even the weather(Upepo - It was a bit windy). At some point, Mkondo broke off from her family and moved to the Pridelands, joining not too long after Tau officially became king. She's mostly enjoyed living in the pride since, watching cubs and helping hunt when there are no cubs to watch. In all, she has a pleasant outlook on life and doesn't personally seek conflict.

Character Background/Personality: After losing the one she loved, she seemed lost and without purpose. She somehow found her way into the Pridelands. It took a long time, but she was finally accepted into the pride. She took up the rank of nanny, hoping to fill a void inside her left by the passing of her mate. She had become hard hearted and mean, taking her anger out on those around her. Only the love of a cub could soften that exterior and bring out the kindness she once held.

When dealing with the injured she will do her best to keep them comfortable, however if they don't listen to her suggestions on how to get better, she tends to get a little annoyed. Manyara was born in the rogue lands in a small litter. She was first born and found herself taking care of her litter mates when her parents left them alone. While she enjoyed being with her family, she wanted to be apart of something bigger. This desire is what led her to the Pridelands.

Character Name: Ujanja
Character Rank: Messenger
Character Background/Personality: A bit of a snoop and a little sleaze ball-y, Ujanja isn’t one to make friends. He wouldn’t be what you call a loyal leopard but he’s very good at his job and knows it. Others trust him with their messages and that's about it. With a mind like a steel trap, he remembers every message given with intense detail. He values rank and position within the pride and will do what he can to work his way up even given his less than stellar people skills. Although he'd never admit it, he feels overshadowed by his younger half sister, Imara, and resents her for her more outgoing and people-pleasing ways.

Character Background/Personality: Far more charismatic than her leopard half sibling, Imara is social and a trustworthy lioness. She enjoys teaching adolescents how to hunt and takes pride in seeing them succeed. Imara loves a juicy piece of gossip and is a bit of a flirt, though she's not beyond settling down eventually with a male that wins over her heart. She knows Ujanja isn't fond of her but tries very hard to rebuild whatever bridge was burnt between them as he is the only blood family she has left in the pride.

Character Name: Lelise
Character Rank: Hunter
Character Background/Personality: Poised | Adaptive | Practical | Learned | Ritualistic | Willful -
Lelise was born and raised in a nomadic band of desert dwellers. The importance of knowledge and understanding the world in which they lived and hunted was imparted early, as was their role in helping to sustain and encourage the balance of nature. Lelise took in all of these teachings and took them with her when she became of age to finding her own niche in the world. Her family and the nomads would always be her folk, she knew the tricks and signs to find them should she need or wish to.

Most of her venturing was solo, though the occasional run ins she had with rogues or affiliated nomadic bands kept her from feeling lonely. Her upbringing and training helped prepare her for much of what she may have encountered. She did well in her wanderings, until she had a run-in with a few especially aggressive hyenas. It had been a vicious fight and she did get away, but not without help. A further ranging Pridelander scout and their trailing guard had heard the commotion and drove away or dealt with the remaining attackers. Injured, nigh exhausted, and alone, the pair had to do a bit of convincing for the stubborn lioness to agree to go with them to get looked at by a healer. Shock did a lot to help her walk most of the way back, until began to wear off and exhaustion was threatening to take her. She collapsed, drifting in and out of consciousness. Her rescuers were able to get her seen and taken care off. Her healing took some time with an infection that tried settling in, but she was brought back to full health with the careful tending of the Prideland healers. She owed the pride her life. They didn't have to take her back, provide care and offer up their resources while she was sick and healing. It wasn't exactly a difficult decision to offer or ask to stay, to pledge her help and life to the betterment of the whole, but it did tug at her heartstrings that she'd likely never see her nomadic kith and kin again. It was definitely a change, but the lioness was ever keen on adjusting to the environments she found herself in. This was no different, besides their circle of life was not dissimilar to her own upbringing.

Lelise can seem, at first blush, a distant or odd seeming lioness. She has an intense, sort of searching gaze as though she's trying to pick apart a puzzle in front of her, reading clues and cues from those around her, coupled with her having some habits and mannerisms practically etched into her bones from her upbringing, she has an unmistakable bearing of one who came from a different background. She's not unfriendly once approached and has been known to be playful or cheeky when at ease and and rest. Still, she's a lioness of her word and has chosen to help provide for the residents of the Pridelands as a hunter, relishing in the odd visit with the nannies to help teach hunting and survival basics to the young ones in their keeping. Insistent as she is to serve and protect her new pride, mostly when the pride is well fed and if it'd otherwise shift the balance of the lands around them, she occasionally assists with scouting when she's able.

Character Name: Obi
Character Rank: Artisan
Character Background/Personality: Cordial | Observant | Inquisitive | Patient | Bit of a Hedonist | Well-meaning | Undemanding -
Obi is a warm, friendly lion who has spent years fine tuning his skills and understanding to better serve as an artisan for anyone who may have need of him or his services. He's very mindful of himself, those around him, and his surroundings, trusting in his instincts and abilities to read others, to read whatever situation he may find himself in.

At the very core of him, Obi doesn't want to demand anything of anyone. He feels respect and one's confidence should be earned, and given freely. He simply wishes to try his best to do what he can to help others along way. Even bringing a small amount of peace or happiness to someone is a worthwhile endeavor to the lion, one that brings him no small amount of gratification.

Character Name: Skafos
Character Rank: Hunter
Character Background/Personality: Skafos is kind of a creepy sort. Not maliciously so! In fact unless provoked he wouldn't hurt a fly -- but he does like death and dead bones. Skafos is the first born son of two pride members -- Eris and Melhor Pax -- but while both parents are members, Skafos was born on a hunting trip[ oytside of pride territories and got seperated. Instead of being adopted by just anyone, Skagos was found by the Goddess of Treasure and raised with love and affection -- albeit a little overencouraged to look into habbies. Skafos? Skafos got into collecting and wearing boners, much enjoying the appearance of a grim spectre of death. He finds odd, dark things beautiful -- from his mother's side -- but he's generally friendly and agreeable -- that's Dad's side. Kabi, listening to him speak of his parents growing up, led the adult pile of disasterous Life Cgoices to the Pridelands, based on his descriptions and gregmented memories, and then vamoosed. Adjusting has not been easy. Skafos gets along swimmingly with Daddy Melhow. Wonderfully, even!.... Skafos and his mother constantly fight, and he is leery of Ate. Skafos wishes Eris would just LET GO of not being considered for the throne, as she was Kiuma's granddaughter (And thus Royal line. Fine times.), but Skafos honestly has no interest in the throne of the pridelands. All Skafos wanys is to collect bones and to maybe collects furs of dead things. Perfectly harmless -- he likes the look and feel of furs and bones just look neat. Is he cool yet?

- Skafos' personality is basically Smol Pansexual goth dude. Very Soft Boy unless provoked, then murderboy. Much fluff, very dote.

Username: Eos Galvus
Character Name: Zenos
Character Rank: Hunter
Character Background/Personality: Zenos was born far from the Pridelands. This is obvious. But less obvious is why he came to the Pridelands, excepting, perhapoos, to cope with his own bloodline and thoughts.

Zenos, on his father's side, is the son of Galvus, the God of Instability. His mother, a mortal lioness whom is far more instable than Galvus and whom hunts males, literally, to eat them. Zenos was not raised by Lillith -- when a single cub was born and it was male, Lillith immediately abandoned her son, finding no use for the little newborn, and he was quickly discovered by many of the demons, and thus, taken to his grandparents, Primitus and Hakuna'jina, as Galvus' response was terror at not helping with his son's birth. Zenos... Tried. He tried so hard to be 'good'. He even formed a loving bond with his father, moving to his side as an adolescent, but, as is wont with his father's domain, Zenos possessed unstable seer visions, and they haunted him, telling to him threats and warnings of his mother's bloodline, his mother's goals, whispers of death and monsters, and finally, Zenos withdrew, becoming exceedingly hostile and defensive to all but his grandparents and father. and unstable like his mother so long as he was plagued, Zenos fled into the roguelands in the night.

Away from his homelands, his mind calmed. HJis visions, less wild and unpredictable -- less horrific and haunting. Still, the damage was done, and looking for a place to simply... disappear, Zenos came to the pridelands for peace of mind and to indulge in his ytrue passion -- hunting. Zenos, n apex predator and keen to scent blood, is a fantastic hunter. It gives him joy, it gives him purpose, and he can hunt alone, never dealing with the petty horrors he once envisioned. Zenos is incredibly astute and intelligent, and often reads others with attentiveness. He is not the most social, finding small talk and idle chitter about simple things boring and pointless, much preferring topics like philosophy, hunting, legends, hunting, the state of the pride and if a spare paw is needed to help guard, and philosophy and hunting. Zenos is selective of whom he likes, and he is also very possessive of those he cares for, to a fault. Zenos will kill to defend his chosen companions, chosen family -- anyone he cares for benefits from his teeth and claws. He is, like Galvus, a massive lion, and enjoys frightening and messing with creatures he doesn't know or respect for the giggles. He's also... Well not really a threat, but generally, he's happy giving the majority of the pride space... Although surprisingly he enjoys teaching or helping some improve hunting or lean to hunt. He might be awkward with cubs but he is happy to tolerate them climbing all over him. Give him a cubpile and he still tries being regal, it's amazing.

Username: Eos Galvus
Character Name: Eos
Character Rank: Artisan
Character Background/Personality: Eos is almost a perfect twin of his brother Syris. Golden eyed Eops isn't sure if he or Syris are older, nor does he give five craps and a bird dookie. Eos is an artistic soul whom likes it spooky and dark, being equivalent to a human goth, and he likes working with his paws, his brother, checking out pretty creatures, learning, and generally not dealing with horse-dookie. He has a low tolerance for things he calls stupid, but he's not antisocial. In fact, sometimes, he won't shut uop. It just means he is a master of bonking someone with his paw when he's 'slapping them smart'. Eos is a little insecure and anxious, with an intense rejection sensitivity that makes him, well, easy to distress and convince him someone doesn't like him or that he's a bother, even if he's not. Eos and his brother Cyrus used to travel with their father Arkeios, however the rains brought a flash flood that seperated them from him, and knowing he was alive seeing him claw his way onto another shore, the duo decided to find a home and pride, hoping one day their father might find them and rejoin them.

Character Name: Syris
Character Rank: Hunter
Character Background/Personality: Syris is Eos' twin, and nobody knows whom is older, not even them. Maybe their father. However, they're not perfect twins. Syris looks like Eos with different eyes, and he's a bit larger than Eos. Syris is affectionate and protective of his sibling, ever worried something might happen to them both, and he dislikes feeling alone. The one exception is hunting, when Syris is perfectly fine in a group or by himself -- he doesn't really care. Syris likes bringing Eos things for his ctrafting, and he's very gentle and soft spoken -- the softer of the pair of lions, but he's not necissarily harmless. Eos bonks like a cat. Syris is prepared to defend if need be, however he's less judgemental -- do not harm Eos and you do fine. Syris and his brother once roamed with their father, Arkeios, but in the rainy season, the boys were sepetrated from their father by a flash flood. Syris was injured dragging Eos through the most active period, being a stronger swimmer -- although both males love to swim -- and needed a place to stop. After seeing their father emerge on the other shore, Eos and Syris decided to join the Pridelands and wait, hoping their father might someday join them. Syris has far less social anxiety than Eos, and when together, sometimes, Syris may speak for both of them.
