 Starts: Now Ends: 1st November
Soo, I am rehoming a few of the SoA that I have not gotten any plots for, so I can concentrate on the more plotted SoA that I have in my possession. I love this girl, but unfortunately never found her plots, so I figure near Halloween would be the perfect time to give her away C:
(She was formerly a member of the Voodoo pride, but does not have to remain there if someone wins her, but that is an option if you would like to consider it. <3 )
Rules::
+ Anyone can enter, do not discourage anyone for trying. Doesn't matter if you own 0 or 500 SoA
+ Please fill out the form to entirety and use the form.
+ This SoA comes with relatives! She has a cousin, Sukanya, and this can NOT change. This won't really affect plots much, just means that she can't breed with any of Sukanya's future offspring and such, so keep that relation in mind C:
+ Please do not complain in this thread, or try to guilt others.
+ There is no naming requirements, go nuts ~
+ I reserve the right to extend this or not give her away if no entry tickles my fancy, though this is HIGHLY unlikely to ever occur, haha
Prompts:: (Respond to these via RP, as if you were Self-Roleplaying her, or add in another character if you want it to be more of a traditional RP. )
Please feel free to use Sukanya (her personality is motherly and sweet), I won't be judging you on how you use Sukanya, just how you RP this character so no worries about Sukanya's personality, though try not to change it completely :P
[ I ] || How did she get that mask? Why does she wear it?
[ II ] || Does she prefer the daytime or the night time? Or does she have another preference?
[ III ] || With an appearance like hers, you'd think she would love a night like Halloween. Does she? Tell us her Halloween tale
[ IV ] || Free write! Type something up that shows her personality.

Walk with me, into the moonlight darling
Name & Meaning: Milele-nyamavu "Always Silent"
Personality: Quiet, odd, lucky, somewhat sinister, house hermit.
RP Prompt: I
(Think of this as either her still in the voodoo pride or the diseased one.)
Milele spit into the bowl of dried herbs she was mashing with her knuckles. Her icy eyes glanced her and there, observing the eyes that glanced back. Clearly the looks she was recieving from those around her implied they sensed something was off. That whatever she was doing was something very wrong, something that they lead their children away from because of the sheer evil aroma around it.
In truth she was just making some more medicine, she had ran out a while back and none of the adolencence were willing to go out and make some for her. Well, as Sukanya always told her, it wasn't good to keep herself locked up in her house all day. Even the pride hermit eventually came outside. Despite it being a simple task of sorts.
"Well, what do you thing Nyoni?" She rose her eyes and talked to the skull resting on her forehead. "Seems done?" Although she was well aware that "Nyoni" wouldn't respond, she still continued to talk to it. After all, Nyoni used to be her beloved pet.
Nyoni could never speak, so not having the vulture respond was typical. Not having a small flap of feathers was a little different, but Milele would live. She stopped churning her medicine for a moment, removing her paw from the bowl. The reason Nyoni died... It was the leopardess' fault. Although Nyoni was her pet, her pet that she loved so. Milele had been the one whom killed the beast. And how she regretted it.
Well, the vulture's death was for it's own good. See, the little pet had come to Milele seeking help. It was dying, and Milele being a fairly well-known healer was the first one reccomended to the bird. However, Milele could not help it. She had tried potion after potion, cure after cure, but fate could not be avoided.
The vulture would die, and die painfully at this rate. So Milele spared it the trouble of battling a war that wouldn't be won, ending the bird's life herself. She hadn't even known the creature's name, or she did and simply forgot. But after the birds sickness became so bad it couldn't speak out any words at all, Milele started refering to it as Nyoni. "Bird". A very simple name simply said as another word.
It was strong, the leopardess would give Nyoni that much. Everyday that she left her den, Nyoni would perch itself on Milele's head and off they'd go.
"Funny..." She said aloud. "Although I attempt to help others, I only seem to do the opposite." She shrugged, went back to crushing the herbs she had gathered. She hadn't time nor reason to care for the stares her pridemates were giving her. She had another paitent to tend to after all...
Music Video: I'm sorry, I couldn't think of a good enough one to show you. Will you forgive me?
Anything Else? I'll either have her stick around in the voodoo pride, or move to the diseased one. Either way, she'll become a doctor of sorts, attempting to heal others only failing. Particularly cubs or small creatures like Nyoni was.

Walk with me, into the moonlight darling Name & Meaning: Kekkel, meaning "cackle" in Afrikaans
Personality: She is quirky, to say the least. She follows her own way of things, and can put others off by it.
RP Prompt: Prompt #5
"Come, deeries, come!" She beckoned to the cubs lurking just outside her den door, but the moment she showed her face, they scattered. Their squeals of childish fear and excitement troubled her not, for it happened on an almost daily basis. Oh, a few of the young ones did not flee from her, but most did. It didn't occur to her that today's mask of a cleaned and cobwebbed vulture skull might add to the energetic reactions she tended to get. She had other masks too, of course... a veil of lion whiskers dangling from a line of bird skulls, for example. Or her crown of teeth from some mysterious aquatic creature with two more attatched that hung over her eyes, so that she peered out among tiny, razor sharp teeth. To her, they were merely self expression, artistic means to change the world up.
She paused to eye a bird with a speculative look that had it shifting on its branch and cawing uneasily. "Hmmbrrrg, those tha' feh-furs would look mighta fine on... mmmm," she trailed off into wordless mumbles. Ideas tumbled around in her head, often so vivid she felt she could nearly touch them! When inspiration struck, she was nearly fevered with crafting until the mask was complete. She launched into such a streak now, after seeing those gleaming red and black feathers. Her den, as she rummaged about in it, was cluttered and clogged with so many random items, none but the most brave ever entered it.
She pawed amongst the scatterings of bones and skulls, finally finding the small tusk she'd been hunting for. Now, should it curve up, or down? Mumbling still, intently ignorant that her young observers had crept back up and were peering inside to watch, she knocked aside a pile of furs, looking for just the right one. "Hagu-nga-gunga-gun...," she chanted as she lifted up one, then another, finally settling for one of a baby warthog, with the head still attached. More childish screams from outside and she set about punching a hole just about where the shoulders had been troubled her not at all. Someone would eventually enjoy this mask, but first she had to finish getting it ready for them! Then it would sell for more items at the next fair. Oh yes, her job here was supremely delightful for the aging leopardess!
Music Video: I get this song stuck in my head, so I shall share and you can suffer the same fate!
Anything Else? She will join the Sikukuu as a newcomer. Her accent will be strange, her words will be odd, and she will present the most astonishing masks to sell at the celebrations. Despite the penchant of Vuli clan for masks, she would be of the Mrao, or winter, clan. She will likely creep quite a few people out, but it won't faze her.

Walk with me, into the moonlight darling Name & Meaning: Manouchka (popular Haitian name with unknown meaning)
Personality: Dreamy, aloof, spooky
RP Prompt: I
Manouchkla wandered the ourskirts of the Pepo'porojo pride, searching. There had been an idea put into the dreamy leopard's head. A bone. She was looking for a bone. But, not just any bone, a special one. One she felt she had to find.The Hounfor, it was the best place to start, she figured. A place many others of her rank sought out specific bones. The decaying bones of the place would be perfect for what she sought, and maybe even finding any bones the pride may need for any upcoming ceremonies.
The darkness of night time was beginning to creep across the horizon as she sun shifted her surroundings into twilight, the best time for this sort of thing Manouchkla always thought. The air was cooling from the hot sun that had been high in the sky mere hours ago, or had i been longer? She couldn't remember... Days and nights seemed to flow, hours ticking by without her noticing much, but twilight, this time of day seemed to drag on, but she wouldn't have it any other way.
Her slow, even foot steps brought her to the place, she could feel it, the way the dirt felt under paw she knew this was where to begin her search. Tail flickering and eyes bright as the moon barely begun to creep into the sky. Her deft paws slowly began to move dirt around, her claws bringing up piles t push off to the side. Bones. Yes, that was her task this eve, to find a bone for herself. Something she could wear and wear proudly to help mark her as what she was. Many others wore bones, it wasn't just the Pèseptè that had the honor, but she felt she needed something grand and special to help show she was devoted to the beliefs of the Pepo'porojo and to mark her as a collector of bones.
Dig, dig, dig. She thought as she moved more and more earth, seeking some sort of fantastic bone, she would know it when she saw it. There was nothing specific she sought, but she had a feeling she would know it. It would speak to her, she believed. Then her claws felt something under paw, scraping across something harder than dirt, something like rock, but ivory in color.
"Sucess!" She cried happily as she began to carefully shift the dirt from around the skeleton she had located. Once uncovered she carefully surveyed her find. It was mostly intact, a bird perhaps? That beak, it had to be. She carefully pulled the skull of the beast forward. It was as big as her own skull she thought as she eyed it, watching it as the moon light begun to illuminate her find, the stark pale color of the bones almost shining against the darkening brown dirt. Her tail flickered in delight as she lowered her head and spoke softly to the thing, "Are you what I am looking for?" She asked in a soft, almost child like voice-- dreamy and aloof. A giggle. Yes. Yes. She heard the small voice in her head say. She mistook it for the bone and felt a rush of happiness flood her mind. "Oh happy day!" She exclaimed, enjoying her find, her prize. She leapt around the skull, having a small celebration of her own for her find.
With care she nudged her head under the skull and used a paw to help place it better. With delight she pranced around, slowly, aware she needed assistance in securing it to her head, her new mask. Gleeful intoxication over took her as she sorted through the rest of the bones, grabbing little bits here and thereto bring back. Her task completed she thought of the needs of the pride now. Rib bones, claws, whatever she could carry she brought back, held held high as she dreamily slunk back home.
Lucky was this gift the Loa had brought her. Such a lovely mask she now possessed. Many thanks would be had tonight as she praised her Loa for helping her locate her special thing. This mask of bone which had been so easy to find. Yes, the Loa had been very giving this eve, she was so glad.
Music Video: Dance of the Manatee :3
Anything Else? I'd love to have her in the voodoo pride, just because she looks like she would belong there and I love the prides concept. I'd like to have her become a Pèseptè, which gathers bones for the members of the pride and for ceremonies.

Walk with me, into the moonlight darlingName & Meaning: Madoadoa'Manane; 'Dappled midnight'
Personality: She was once loving, but was terribly hurt and is now guarded suspicious. She is vulnerable but covers it up by being snappish and sarcastic.
RP Prompt: Prompt I
Nane dozed in the afternoon heat, relishing the sun's rays as they warmed her pelt. It was a beautiful day - the heat was enjoyable not unbearable, and her and her mate had just finished a wonderful meal. She felt so happy she could burst.
Her mate had just padded away into the undergrowth to make dirt, and she lay in wait for his return. Suddenly, the stillness of the air was shattered by a shrill cry. Looking up, Nane caught sight of the largest vulture she had ever seen. It circled overhead, clearly intrigued by the remaining scraps of their earlier meal. She thought that the vulture would wait until the lions had left to eat, but she was wrong. The enormous bird plummeted towards her with a screech, talons extended. She rose to meet it with claws, teeth and a thunderous roar. The fight was over as quickly as it began, and the vulture lay dead in the dirt beside her, but not before it had raked it's talons across her face.
When her mate returned, his expression turned from worry to horror. Nane turned and rushed over to a nearby stream. Gazing into the water, she saw that her face had been torn and was nearly unrecognizable. Unable to face her reflection any longer, she rushed to her mate for comfort, but he pulled away. Startled, she gazed into his eyes.
"Nane, but I can't do this", he stated, in a voice full of disgust and completely empty of the love he had shown her just moments before. "Your face... It's... frightening. I'm sorry." With that, he turned and ran off.
Broken-hearted, Nane lay in that spot for days, hardly noticing her hunger and thirst. When she finally came out of her daze, her heart had become bitter and cold. In a rage, she ripped the flesh of the dead vulture that still lay beside her; she didn't eat the bird, she merely shredded it in fury. In a frenzy, she tore the skull off the bird and thrust it onto her head. Racing to the stream, she looked at her reflection in the glistening waters and chuckled.
"My face is frightening, is it? Then I'll hide it, so I never inconvenience anyone with the sight of it again. I'll hide it under the trophy of my victory, and it was a victory. If you couldn't see my strength, then may your soul be damned!"
Spitting the last words to a mate that she knew couldn't hear her, she lashed out and broke the surface of the water. Spinning around, she stalked away from the place where her life had crumbled, damning the memories and the lion she had made them with and searching for a new place to call home.
Music Video: I'm Not Dead - P!nk There's some mild semi-nudity. Some of the lyrics relate to Nane. c:
Anything Else? I'd love to keep her in the Voodoo pride, since she definitely belongs. I'll just say she joined as an adult, and the RP above will have happened before she joined. I'm hoping to make her a Medsen Fey. Eventually, I'm hoping to find her someone that will accept her and love her and return a bit of her old self.

This was really hard to judge, I loved parts of everyone's entries ; u ; I wish I had four leopards to give away, but unfortunately I had to make a decision. and the winner is.... I loved the idea of her scaring small cubs as she does her job, being the 'pride spook' almost! And the accent is a nice addition. C: She was coloured by Lithia, so you may post for her recert at any time <3 However! While I don't have 4 leopards to give away, I really liked the idea of one other entrant and so,
I would like to offer you one of my other plotless leopards, this girl if you would like to continue that concept you developed? If you want to get her edited with the scars/the skull, let me know as I am happy to pay for those edits for you!
Congratulations and thank you to everyone who entered <3~!
I will be posting up another rehoming contest shortly, so please keep an eye out.
