The Family
This boy comes from a very large family on his mother's side. We won't go into that mess here. Let's just say that it's large and it's old blood. The cub's mother is the sort of lioness you would expect from that sort of family. She is clever and brave and dangerous at need.
On his father's side, there's very little to be said. His father was born an outlander, but he fought his way into the pride and has been doing his part ever since. He's kind of a jerk and a misogynist, so this boy is clearly going to be his favorite cub.
The boy has three sisters owned by Fey, Pinch, and CJ. They are all very pretty.

Rawr and stuff! Username: ~Kiana_Nala~
SoA Name: Magnar [Northern Might]
Personality: Magnar shares some misogynist views, like his father, but his tend to lean more towards objectifying women. He does quite a bit of enjoyment out of a woman thinking she can be equal to a man and even more so if she can actually hold her own a little in a fight, just so long as she knows her place is somewhere below him. If not he may be inclined to show her where her place is. Magnar is a rough and tough kind of guy who likes to get his paws dirty. He's certainly not the type to sit around and would great prefer to be Viking daily if possible. While Magnar can be rather cruel he does occasionally show a "softer" side if the timing deems it. While it's nice to "break" things, in the end they still need to be somewhat workable.
Future Plans:
-*- Eventually I'd like for him rise to the rank of Captain.
Anything Else: I'm the type that has a hard time coming up with future plans for characters ahead of time. I like to RP and it's usually there that I get ideas for plots.
This is a good song and kind of the premise of Magnar's personality (as he develops).

Rawr and stuff! Username: SilverLutz
SoA Name: Valder (from VALD - ruler, might, power, and HER - army)
Personality: A daddy's boy, Valder emulates his father and thinks he can do no wrong. As such, he holds similar views as his father that will grow into a very traditional take on women. They should bare cubs, raise families, and keep the den tidy. Leave the heavy work to the big, strong men. He doesn't dislike females nor would he ever attack one, but he does find them inferior and something to be owned and protected. He's a bit cocky but very loyal and will protect those he cares for to his dying breath. He's certainly not the brightest star in the sky, and things are very black and white for him. Something is either right or wrong, good or bad, left or right. There is no grey.
Future Plans:
- adventures with dad! I'd love for him to take up his father's trade and go Viking with him once he's old enough. He's incredibly proud that his father was a rouge and fought his way into the pride, finding the task daunting for any non-reaver to attempt.
- protecting his mother/sisters from bullies, or what he might perceive to be bullies.
- once he's a bit older, getting into a fight with a female and losing. It'll make him re-think his take on females and possibly admit they're tougher than he once thought
- find a mate. This could go one of two ways: finding a nice quiet woman who will do as he tells, or someone who will challenge his way of thinking and drive him crazy, but loves him all the same.
- Viking! He's not quite smart enough to be a captain, but he'll loyally follow one wherever they go.
Anything Else:A song for you!

Rawr and stuff!
Username: Rennekae
SoA Name: Njörðr [nyour'err], meaning "strong, vigorous".
Personality: Njörðr will inherit his father's opinion of women being inferior. But he won't mean to. He won't actively think of males as better, but he will frequently ask females if they need his help. He will strongly believe that women need to be protected, completely unaware that his behavior is sexist. He will actually resent the way some males treat females as objects, and sees this as another opportunity to "defend" them. He is very confident - almost to the point of being arrogant - and has the talent to back it up. In adolescence and early adulthood, he will be extremely flirty (only with the single ladies, of course), but after finding that special lioness, he will take no notice of other females and be totally committed to her. He is very laid-back and has a good sense of humor, and while he loves fighting and training, he is perfectly happy being a follower and not a leader. Even in combat, though he focuses intently and understand the weight of fighting, he isn't very "serious", often taunting his opponents.
Future Plans:
- Meeting a strong, independent lady who can "enlighten" him to his sexist ways and become his mate.
- Becoming a Reaver, and not really wanting anything more. Life's easier with less responsibilities.

Rawr and stuff!Username: Chimerical Beast
SoA Name: Roar (This is an actual name! It's pronounced ROO-ahr, but still. It means 'famous spear')
Personality: This lad is the definition of chivalrous. He's courteous and generous to everyone (though perhaps more so to some than others). But on the flip side, he's a valiant and capable combatant. Roar's greatest flaw is his being what some call a 'sweet misogynist.' Females are like children: not as strong, smart, or capable as males, but they should be protected and valued- not abused or exploited. That said, not everyone Roar considers a female is, in fact, a female.
Roar has no concept of anatomical sex, and has an exceptionally difficult time with gender. For example, all reavers and law speakers are male because they hold positions of power. All non-lion thralls (and most lion thralls) are female because they're weaker. Behavior has an impact, of course, and an individual's gender needn't be completely static (a male can become female or vice versa, in accordance with their actions). He sometimes gets pronouns confused, and this will likely lead to some beatings.
For the record, he really likes the ladies. Well, those he thinks are ladies.
Future Plans:
-He'll become at least a reaver
-A guy who can't tell the sex or gender of his partner in a mostly homophobic pride? That'll be interesting.
Anything Else: I like me some Cracked, too

Rawr and stuff! Username: bullterrierlove
SoA Name: Hilmir(means ruler, chief, king in old norse)
Personality: Hilmir is not a nice cub. He adores his father, and looks up to him. He believes in all of his father's ideals, and tends to be very protective of the lion. So much so, that he will lash out at anyone who dares say something bad about him. He's also very obsessive, that is, his father is on his mind constantly as a cub. And he could go on for hours talking about his father, and what a great parent and individual he is. The little cub looks up to his father greatly. And he's filled with pride that he was lucky enough to have the male raise him.
Because he believes in his father, he does take on his viewpoints. He expects females to act a certain way, and let the males do all the strong, powerful work. He also views them as weak, and with no value to the pride when their opinion comes into play. In fact, he demeans any female that he sees verbally who is trying to do something that he believes that they shouldn't, or acting like an individual with an important opinion. If they fight back, he's sure to use his claws and maw to get what he wants (though, he's not the greatest of fighters and would never kill a female intentionally.).
Although he has quite a few negative traits, he is a caring soul. He treasures his friends and family deeply, and tends to go out of his way to meet his father's expectations. Hilmir is also incredibly determined and tenacious, and he views himself as heroic at times. If there's a female in need, he's bound to help her because he feels that it's an obligation. After all, they're females who "don't have a male's strength".
Hilmir is also very sensitive about his sisters and mother. He feels compelled to excel better than them, and flaunt his strengths and skills to them. He'll also demean them if he thinks that they're “out of line" or a threat. He's actually acts quite cold to his sisters, but if another female tries to bully them, then he becomes very overprotective. And he will barge into any of their fights as long as it's not with another male.
If a male is bullying them, the cub will watch, and perhaps even help the other if his sisters fight back. Because he thinks that his sisters should just take the bullying in full stride, and not fight back.
He’ll also have the dream of becoming warlord. But that may diminish as he grows. Later on in the future, I could see him trying to become the warlord and dying in the process.
Future Plans:
Teach me!- Hilmir has much to learn, and I could see him asking his father to teach him something that he's in awe over, that his father can do. It can be anything (and even more than one thing!).
I'll show you!- Because he's a very determined individual, I would like to see him try to show off some sort of skill, to someone. Preferably, someone that he's close to. But it could be an enemy that he wants to show off to). This would probably include multiple attempts, with Hilmir failing horribly the first few times. xD
Shut up!- Hilmir is bound to meet a few strong females that tick him off. He'll try to demean him (and she, of course, can kick his arse and/or humiliate him). I'd like for him to have a few of these encounters, where he doesn't win. And resorts to really lame comebacks.
Back off.- Hilmir confronting a female who’s bullying one(or all) of his sisters. He’ll probably be quick to resort to violence (and extremely cruel words).
Stop! You can’t!-I want him to think that one of his sisters is a threat, and have him use whatever means necessary to make sure that he’s better than them in that one area. He’ll probably fail, too. Which will undoubtedly anger him.
What? You want me to help?- I’d also like him to watch one of sisters get bullied by a male. Instead of doing anything, he’d passively watch, and maybe make a comment or two to aid the male. He will get physical and join in if he feels like he has to. And I’d find it wonderful if one of his sisters attacked him and the other bully? With him losing, probably, unless the girl’s owner wants it differently.
Why are you sticking up for her?-I'd like to see another male stand up for a female that he's being cruel to. Because Hilmir would be baffled. And he wouldn't really know what to do in a situation like that, especially if the male is someone he either holds great respect for, or someone that he views as strong.
Can I help?- I would like for him to meet a female that he can help. And then end up finding that she can do things that he can't do, somehow. It would give him a new perspective, perhaps. Or later on, he can be struggling with something, and she could help him out, showing him one of her strength. (The more I think about it, the more I want it to be the latter).
Creating a family- Hilmir is bound to have a few flings when he reaches adulthood. Because he believes that he’s giving some females their “purpose" in life. That is, giving them children to take care of.
I can't believe I'm in love with you.- Eventually, I could see him falling in love with one of his “enemies". It could be an unrequited love. But I could see this changing him, eventually. It would take a lot of time, but I think he'd eventually attempt to see it her way, instead of his own. If this route is taken, later on, I want him to have a confrontation with his father. Because his father is the best man that he knows, and his father finding out would probably devastate him. He desires that close connection with the male, but on the other hand, he doesn't agree with all of what his father believes in. It would create delicious drama, I think. And it would be an internal struggle on Hilmir's part.
Death-(may not be used) If certain events pan out (and this is way into the future, after he falls in love), he may try to become warlord. Except, he'll probably die trying to kill the warlord, because he's not that skilled in combat. Even if he believes himself to be.
Becoming a reaver- I could see him messing up on his first viking because he does have a quick temper. He may cause a bit of drama, and may not be accepted? And told that he needs to wait until he grew up a bit? He'd be furious, but he'd be determined to do well the next time.
Captain's honor-If his captain dies, I could see him vying for the captains position. He'd claim that the captain would want him to have that position, and that they should respect the captain's honor. He doesn't have to get the position though ouo. I would prefer if he didn't the first time he has a shot at it, actually xD
Anything Else: I'm not too sure on the last three plots. xD So I can totally change them if need be. C: Same goes for all of my plots really ouo And sorry for writing so much OTL. Song for you~! And a Cracked article that you may find entertaining. C:

Might as well give it a go! 8D
Edited a little 7/5
Rawr and stuff!
Username: Shia bean
SoA Name: Lemminkäinen (Supposed Finnish hero of lore. Nicknames - Kai, Lemminki, Lems)
Personality: Chaotic, selfish, stubborn, persistant
Lems will not be kind. He will not be gentle, nor considerate nor anything remotely close to good in terms of character. His cub-dom, and through to his adult years, will be spent walking that fine line between being extremely brave (and only for his own good) and being extremely reckless. (In some cases, stupidly so) His needs will surpass those of others, and he will always act according to them; despite the repercussions. He will not be the brightest bulb in the box, but he'll have the strength and blind brutality of ten men-- an asset to war, not politics. He'll have the capacity to be intelligent, but he'll just chose to act on impulse. Because its better that way. (Yolo)
It will be difficult for him to make friends, because no one else's livelihood matters but his own at the end of the day. In addition to selfishness, his high energy, rambunctious (borderline insane) ways will be difficult to handle in large doses. He will attempt to indulge in the raunchy conversations that surface inevitably throughout the pride, and he will TRY to make friends in the only way he knows how (beat on them until they submit, find a match in strength that could keep him from getting bored, u know) however the overzealous b*****d will more often then not take things too far. Ruin the fun for everyone else. That's what he'll be good for. Those who choose to call themselves his 'friends' will most likely so do so on their own, assuming the role over being told it's theirs to take. He will likely walk all over them, never return favors, ect.
His relationship with his family will be strained. Selfishness really doesn't allow for much in the way of compassion, and for that reason Lems will have none--not even for his family. If he has to choose who to be close to, it'll probably be his mother-- despite his daddies uber-love. This, I believe, will be in part due to his attraction to females over, obviously, males. It'll be a subconscious decision to favor her over his father, perhaps also to learn of their weaknesses and to exploit those later on in his life with other females he will encounter. Either way it has nothing to do with the 'personalities', so to speak, of either parent. In general, however, he won't feel strongly for either. His siblings in their youth will receive the brunt of his roughhousing, if he can manage to get them to play at all, and will later on in his life be disregarded for the most part.
And more would be built upon this through RP.
Future Plans: Reaver bound! However, because he is so crazy I wouldn't be surprised if the pride wants him out of their ranks as soon as the first sign of trouble comes up.
Anything Else: Noo. >3<
