All the World's a Stage:Username: Neon Fly
SoA's Name: I'd have to see her first. x3;;
Gender: Female
Species: Lion (Newest Lines!)
Stage: Adult
Rank: Slave to... an uncertain future. o Do!
Personality: A quiet, intelligent girl who keeps her head down and does as she's told without argument. She and her sister are as different as night and day with this girl being the mellow, calm and almost baleful moon to her sister's brilliantly shining, bubbly and cheerful sun. She has quietly accepted her station within the pride and though she wishes for more, she's a bit jaded and has lost hope of anyone ever being taken seriously.
History: In a time, not so long ago, two young females were sent on a journey by their father, the leader of their pride, and accompanied by an escort to the neighboring Suka'Fumo lands. The two girls, both with shades of lavender upon their pelts, were to be presented to the nobles of the Suka'Fumo as a gift after hearing about the pride's peculiar reverence for various hues of purple. An offering of good will and to help continue the prosperity of the purple lions with new blood in their times of trouble, and hopefully to keep the unrest from infecting their own pride. Unfortunately, on the way to the Suka'Fumo the girls and their guide were caught by a rogue band who were seeking to take over the S'F in it's state of weakness. Dragged along for the ride the unruly group was quickly dispatched by the guards and the two young, filthy lionesses were taken as slaves after it was decided that they were harmless. At most once they were adults they could help populate the weakening pride, purple or not.
So Kisokoto and her sister have grown up as slaves. Their pelts are always muddy or covered in dirt so they've never been recognized as having purple coloring.
History Note: I suspect they probably would have arrived at about the point in time in the S'F history when the pride was staggering for members, perhaps just a little before Bwana returned. They were probably adolescents upon arriving and so would probably be young adults now.
Description: CC of the TWEWY pin Superfine Beam.
Reference Image(s): PIN
Extra Notes: Since I had planned for the two TWEWY pin girls to be sisters it's kind of a package deal. Kisokoto will be joining the pride as well. I realized that she'd probably fit well into the pride after looking at her. If I don't happen to be picked I'll keep trying for her in regular customs so that they can hopefully join soon.
I'd love to do a plot where one of the girls is perhaps spotted after she's finished bathing and someone FINALLY realizes that they're purple and their status in the pride would then change to something a little less demeaning than being a slave, though perhaps against the will of their current owner. I love the idea of them marrying into noble families but I do see this girl as possibly being a scholar she seems like the librarian type while I could definitely see her sister Kisokoto being a bubbly, happy player. I like the idea of them being at a different spectrum of the middle class with Scholars being looked upon with such respect while Players are kind of seen as free loaders. x3

The Stubborn
Username: The_Great_Book_Wyrm
Name of The Stubborn: Adebamgbe
Name Meaning: "royalty dwells with me"
Prompt: 2
History:
Ade was born an only child in a noble pair, who were delighted by the beautiful color of his fur. Through out his childhood he was praised in every possible way, and was weaned by his parents to fight for power and glory, their obsession shaping the little cub, turning him into a twisted and vain individual. They limited his interactions with other cubs, and as such the last hope of making the child think otherwise was cruelly squashed.
And so Ade grew, completely certain of his power and superiority over all others. He knew no opposition he could not break, no obstacle he could not surpass, and he kept on steadily rising upwards, winning battles, fighting enemies, and gaining trust of the king. Eventually he achieved it - the rank of a War Councilor, his goal, the summit of power, the most powerful rank a lion without royal blood could achieve. His parents, fully satisfied that their every wish was fulfilled, died with smiles of bliss on their faces, and the full grown male was happy as well. Ade had no part in the revolt - he remained oblivious to the end.
And then everything went wrong. When the old king was murdered, everything Ade had ever achieved was shattered, and he simply could not bear it. All his beliefs, his dreams, his efforts were deemed completely useless, and he was cast out from the tribe. His bitterness grew within him as he wandered along the wastes, and Ade was ready to burst from the pent up anger. And then he stumbled upon it. An abandoned, small, yellow cub.
What a blizzard of emotions the poor thing stirred up in the grizzled lion's heart! At first he wanted to kill it, and release the flurry of heat and fury the had been stocking up in his soul."This cub isn't even a noble!" Ade thought furiously. "You do not deserve to live, you pathetic thing!" But as the lion roared it's last thought and raised it's paw to strike, something stirred within his heart. Who is he to judge whether this cub is worthy to live? An adviser who's superior went mad and nearly destroyed his own pride, without himself knowing anything? A dreamer who's petty wishes never went beyond the ones of his parents? Who was he, a worthless piece of trash, to judge the life of a cub that could possibly change the world with it's very paws?!
And so Ade forever shut his superiority away. He picked up the softly mewing cub and carried it to the nearest pride he could find. The cub was quickly found by a lonely elderly couple, and they wasted no time in adopting it for their own. Ade turned away, and looked towards the horizon, where his own pride was located. His new goal was set, and this time, it was for the good of others that he was going to risk everything. The lion set out at a brisk jog.
There were changes to be made.
Prompt:
Ade was beside himself with joy. His previous ruler's son had let the harsh rules and regulations weaken, and everyone was appreciative of his good will and new view on things. Well, most of the pride, anyway. The male scowled unconsciously. Old fools that protested these changes! They thought of themselves much before their pride, like Ade himself did, long ago. Did they honestly think that changing everything back was going to give them back their lost influence and status? Blubbering idiots, that's who they were. Only the new generation and the groudlings understood that the old rules must change. He can now see his past mistakes, and can finally understand the true path to enlightenment. The only way you could achieve anything lasting was to make sure the generations after you remembered you. Whether or not they thought he was a tyrant or a saint was their own choice. All he will do is make sure his pride will continue to live, no matter what.
But enough of these worries. All that was still in the future. He will acquaint himself with the pride, first. Much has changed, and he has to be certain who was for and against the changes, and who would want to support his own plans. There was only one chance at this, Ade knew. But it will be done, for the sake of his pride. The community's perspective must be changed. Even if he couldn't change everything in his own lifetime, he can sow the seeds that will eventually grow, and break through the dry, sandy soil of oppression.
He watched as the little cubs played together, tumbling and screeching at his own tail, which he lazily moved just out of their reach.How equal, free, and carefree they were! And, as a beautiful white cub finally managed to catch it with a yowl of triumph, Ade was reminded why he was doing this. To make sure these little cubs would never have to part from one another, regardless of status.
To make sure everybody was equal.
((While I would love to be able to plot all these changes inside the pride, I do realize this might be completely the opposite from what the members of the pride intended. Feel free to say this is not what you wish to happen, and I will gladly retract my entry.))
