Location: All around the Kizingo'zaa Pride and Rogue Lands
Familiar: None Currently

Obtained: December Custom Month '09
Colorist: Meepfur

Personality: Blind from birth Ozark was an outcast from the start amongst a pride full of suspicious, dark eyed lions who saw him as little more than a hindrance they couldn't afford to keep around. He only survived as long as he did thanks to the good graces of his mother's maternal instincts, but even that couldn't save him for long. Always looked at as an eyesore Ozark has managed to survive relying mostly on himself even despite his disability though it was never easy. He's terribly introverted and socially awkward due to having little experience around others and often doesn't know how to speak to deal with others. It's an issue that is often at odds with his intuitive nature as senses heightened by his lack of sight allow him to read others far easier than most. He's quite strong and capable physically and though he's rather rough around the edges in terms of socializing his simple, nonjudgmental presence can also be a place of solace for those who have lost their way or simply need someone to be with where they can clear their restless mind for a while.

Acceptance into Kizingo'zaa

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Name: Ozark
Owner: Neon Fly
Gender: Male
Mate: N/A
Personality: Blind from birth Ozark was an outcast from the start amongst a pride full of suspicious, dark eyed lions who saw him as little more than a hindrance they couldn't afford to keep around.

Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Having been chased from his pride in the mountains for his curiosities and sworn on penalty of death never show his face again. So, alone in the world, Ozark became a nomad until he heard rumor of a pride that could speak to the spirits of their deceased predecessors. Hoping that he might find solace there amongst others like himself Ozark was startled to find that he was met with resistance at the borders of the Swamplands and sent away. Once again rejected and feeling even more out of place in the world he and his hare companion continue to seek somewhere they might fit in. I think Ozark would fit right into this pride considering they talk to their muses and are generally rather odd. I'm also interested to see how he'll react to the pride member's reaction to his blue eyes since it was the initial reason for dislike towards him in his original pride (where blue eyes were nonexistent).
What rank would you want for them? Usher- This seems like a really good job for him. He wouldn't particularly mind laying with the sick and dieing and just giving them a sense of comfort and reassurance. He's large enough that they could feel secure knowing that nothing bad will happen to them in their time of frailty and weakness. Likewise, his sense of smell is so strong from being blind that he wouldn't have any trouble uncovering the bodies of those who had died without reaching the twilight caves or those that were on the verge of death.
