[Chimerical Beast]

General Information

Name: Kacob
-Meaning: Unknown
-Origin: My mind
Sex: Male
Species: Lion
Orientation: Unknown
Marital Status: Unattached
Pride: Bahari'mtoto
Brief Personality Blurb: Kacob tried to take the lessons of the mythology and legends of his people to heart (most especially the heroic epics) with some success. No one could accuse Kacob of cowardice or indecision. And he wasn’t exactly an idiot or a fool.
But he was never the sharpest thorn on the bush, and certainly not the wisest. He considered himself just and practical (most would agree). And if he was a bit impulsive and shortsighted… well, he always owned up to his mistakes and imperfections.

Status

Before the tsunami, Kacob was head of the guard. In their state of relative peace, the guard functioned mostly as a police force. Even then, they found they had a good bit of free time on their paws.
In the wake of the tsunami the royal family and council were decimated. With the ruling class all but destroyed, Kacob stepped up. As captain of the guard, he said, he would lead them while the heir and council collected themselves. This was a temporary arrangement. Definitely temporary... Right?

History

Before the tsunami, Kacob was head of the guard. In their state of relative peace, the guard functioned mostly as a police force. Even then, they found they had a good bit of free time on their paws.
In his spare time, Kacob studied the mythology and legends of his people. The heroic epics were always his favorite, but he’d devour most anything. He tried to take their lessons to heart… with some success. No one could accuse Kacob of cowardice or indecision. And he wasn’t exactly an idiot or a fool.

The kidnapping of his neighbors' ruler's sister was an act of desperation (most likely one at least partially inspired by the epics he’d studied). The colonies needed to unite, and they needed to unite immediately. If the head of the other colony of lions had no interest in granting him an audience, Kacob simply had to make him interested.

The End Justifies the Means
Username: Chimerical Beast
Lion's Name: Kacob
Will he live in the Bahari'mtoto or back on the Islands: Back on the Islands. He has to stay with his people!

Was this lion always a bit of a warmonger or is he simply misunderstood? Was he always a leader, and heir, or has he simply risen up in a time of need? Tell me his story.

In the wake of the tsunami the royal family and council were decimated. With the ruling class all but destroyed, Kacob stepped up. As captain of the guard, he said, he would lead them while the heir and council collected themselves. This was a temporary arrangement, but having had a taste of such great power, will he really be able to give it up so easily when the time comes?

The kidnapping was an act of desperation (most likely one at least partially inspired by the epics he’d studied). The colonies needed to unite, and they needed to unite now. If the head of the other colony of lions had no interest in granting him an audience, Kacob would simply have to make him interested.

Kacob stood silently by the enclosure. Though his body was still, his mind was not. He ran through the mental list of orders he’d given, and those he’d need to give.
Under no circumstances was the captive to be harmed, he’d told the guards. Anyone who so much as touched her without sufficient reason would be punished. She was not to be mocked, ridiculed, or treated like a common criminal; she was a member of their neighbor’s royal family, and would be treated as such.
He glanced briefly at the bedding she’d been provided. He hoped it was at least similar to the sort she was used to. Kacob suddenly wondered what her colony’s diet had been. Giving her the choicest cuts of the fish they caught wouldn’t mean much if that wasn’t what she was used to eating. He frowned. Kacob opened his mouth, shut it, and opened it again, “If you find the meals you are given to be inadequate, please let me or one of the guards know. I’ll see what can be done about it.”
He was quiet again. Then another concern occurred to him: though she’d been assured that she’d not be harmed, there really wasn’t any reason she ought to believe them, was there? Kacob frowned again. He really hadn’t thought this through…
And what about mental stimulation? Entertainment? Damn. He really hadn’t thought this through…
“Lady?” Kacob asked, turning his head to look at her, “Would you like to hear a story?”
