Contest opens: Now .:. Ending time: TBA


Rules

- Play nice or Xefo might just peck your eyes out eek
- Please, read the pride information.
- This chick has to stay in the Bonelands pride.
- Any lion bonded to the chick must either be in the pride, or join it.
- You don't need an existing Bonelands lion to try for the vulture, but you might need to be a little more creative if you don't.
- It is acceptable to pair up with a player with a lion in the Bonelands.
- Don't write a novel! A good entry is like a skirt. Long enough to cover the essentials, but short enough to be interesting.
- Only enter the contest if you don't own a Bonelands vulture. We want to spread the love heart

Go on. Impress me!

Vulture name: Gabangaye (Zulu name meaning "Putting one's trust on other")
Vulture gender: Male
Short personality blurb: Gaba as a chick will be more reserved and quiet. Always watching and listening, learning and taking notes, (so to speak.) With Ushari he will be a little gossipy, much to her dismay at times, but some of the information he gathers might be useful. As he grows under his parents nurturing and Ushari's bond of friendship, he will become more outgoing and personable than Ushari is at times. He will be the one to start conversations with others in the pride and often is dragging Ushari along to meet new people, trying to break her of her shyness.

Lion partner: Ushari Mbio (L1m3_gr33n_sh4rp13)
User Image
Short personality blurb: Ushari is a kindly lioness who is very quiet and stable. She does not gossip, but will not excuse herself from a conversation if gossip is talked about, she simply will remain quiet and try not to look too bored. She was born outside the pride and so she finds it a little daunting trying to make friends within the pride where all the females seem to be rather fond of one another and uncaring towards most new females. Whenever anyone gives her a chance though, she is incredibly sweet and attentive towards them and is more than willing to help with any chores or takss a friend may need to do in a day.
Desired rank for lion: Cigna
How did the lion win the vulture's respect?

Anything else? These vulture chicks are so adorable. <3 I promise to do lots of family rp if the other chick owners are interested and definitely tons of Bonelands rp with the vulture and Ushari.

Go on. Impress me!

Vulture name: Bure'Roho (Swahili for free spirit)
Vulture gender: Female
Short personality blurb: As her name suggests, she is a free spirit. She likes to attempt to wander away from her nest and longs for the day when she can fly. Her bond with Nyesui will help keep her grounded, so to speak, and keep her from venturing off too far.

Lion partner: Nyesui'Paka
User Image
Short personality blurb: Nyesui is a calm lioness that was born in the pride who has a strong love for her family and her pride. Through their bond, these would be traits that Bure would learn from her as she grows.
Desired rank for lion: Cinga
How did the lion win the vulture's respect?

Nyesui was walking along through the Plateau, trying to ignore the incessant urge to scratch at the flea bites she, like the rest of the pride, was ridden with. Oh what she wouldn't give to be free of the nagging irritation for just a couple minutes. She continued walking along and heard a faint noise off in the distance. The black lioness looked in the direction the noise had come from but she didn't see anything. She continued on her way until she heard the sound again. This time she decided to continue her walk towards the sound; what if there really was someone or something there?

As she got closer, the sound got louder. She kept walking and noticed that the sound was coming from behind a rock. She looked behind the rock, that was about the size of her paw, she saw a tiny bird laying with her claw caught under it as she let out her loud cries for help.

"It's okay, little one," Nyesui replied calmly, "you're going to be okay," she did her best to cajole the small bird as she brought her paw up and rolled the rock away. She leaned down and nuzzled the tiny head of the chick. "Shh, little one, let's get you home."

Anything else? heart

I'm so sorry i haven't judged this yet! Christmas and the rest of the holidays decided to eat me :/

So with no further delay:

Looks like Ushari Mbio managed to get this little guy out of a tight spot.

Please post in the rank change thread to get official permission before she's re-certed.

I'll post for familiar certs for the family and let you handle the rest smile
