Cub name: Kabibi
Name meaning: "sea urchin" or "sea shell" in Tagalog
Personality: Kabibi has a problem; he has OCD. He has to follow certain rituals to get through his day. He can't just get up and play; he has to get up, walk to the sea, back up, reapeat three times, and finally wash. Then he has to visit each corner of the den . . . it's not an easy life. And it's not something the pride fully understands. Neither does Kabibi. But he knows he needs to do it.
It's hard for people to see the cub under the OCD, but when they do they find a competitive cub who is nearly desperate to excel. Eventually, he might develope a bitter edge, but it is to hoped that his family will support him through it.
His Ba'ushufu is going to present other problems; he can never just walk into the ocean. He has to follow his rituals. And it might take him a few tries to get it done. It's not a easy thing to live with, and Kabibi isn't going to have an easy life.
Any future plans: Somethings I like to RP out, but I know Kabibi is going to struggle with his problem his entire life. He won't grow out of it as he ages; it something he'll live with.
In any RP, his family will have to work around/with Kabibi.
When he hits adolescents and starts seeking a mate, he's going to have a lot of trouble finding someone who can accept him for who he is - and everything he has to do to get through the day.

Cub name: Phocas
Name meaning: Seal (as in the marine mammal) in Greek
Personality: Phocas is always getting overlooked. Though his parents love him just as much as his other ten siblings, even in his own family he can’t seem to shine. When he’s feeling underappreciated he unconsciously raises his voice as if he’s talking over the roar of the ocean, an embarrassing habit he can’t seem to control. Around his friends he tries to act like the coolest cat on the beach (an illusion he will never master) when he’s really just a cautious klutz who likes to follow the rules but caves easily to peer pressure. No matter how much he’d rather follow his instincts, he believes people will notice him more if he does what they want. Because he can’t seem to say ‘no’ he always finds himself helping others to the point where his friends start depending on him, giving him a sense of purpose, even if his friends don’t always appreciate everything he does.
While not an overly sensitive cub he has a very hard time hiding his emotions from others. You can always tell when Phocas is lying because of the guilty look on his face. He gets lonely easily and likes to be surrounded by lots of friends and acquaintances, whether he’s the center of attention or not, and when he’s older he’ll learn to listen carefully and use the information he gathers. No one, not even Phocas, realizes that he has a rare and useful talent: a photographic memory. His amazing memory sometimes makes him more dependable than others, but it will never make him as special and popular as he wants to be. He also feels a strange attraction toward straight lines and geometric shapes, preferring shark teeth and dull sea stars over colorful fish. Phocas wants order in his life yet is always living a contradiction, trying to be someone he’s not. Deep down, he is simply a gentle soul.
Any future plans:
- Growing up he’ll have a best friend (probably male) who is everything Phocas wants to be that he clings to like a barnacle, hoping desperately that some of his coolness will rub off on him.
- When he reaches adol he’s going to exhaust himself trying to get a girlfriend. He’ll do everything he can think of to impress the girls he likes, from making them gifts from the sea to waiting on their every desire, but somehow everything he tries will backfire. His ‘best friend’ might even wind up with the girl of his dreams. If he does wind up with a girlfriend, she will take advantage of him and break his heart. Phocas will eventually become depressed, believing he’ll never find love like his parents have.
- One day Phocas might realize he has a photographic memory and seriously try to put it to good use. This might take a long time – since he focuses so much on trying to impress others, he always overlooks what’s special about himself.
- Eventually Phocas will meet the girl he loves. This won’t happen until they’re both adults. She’ll probably be someone he already knows, someone he’s helped before, or someone he simply (ironically) overlooked.
- Much, much later in life, probably not until his first litter is almost grown, he'll start to realize that there are more important things in life than being the star of the show.
- His adult rank will be Kinegwe (Hunter).

Username: Sabra Knight
Cub name: Kaiaka
Name meaning: Shadowed Sea
Personality: A quiet cub with a distant gaze (it’s almost like he never looks at you, rather he is looking off towards the ocean) who loves being surrounded by family though some might not believe it because of the way he is. Kaiaka tends to wander off in order to get away from the noises of everyone around him and can sometimes zone out whenever someone is speaking to him – but he doesn’t have negative feelings towards anyone, it’s just the way he is. He doesn’t push away affectionate moments, but doesn’t normally start them either. Really he seems kinda apathetic and as a cub loves to nap.
However, when in the ocean Kaiaka is a different story. His expression actually lightens up and the cub comes alive when a wave crashes nearby he’ll be the first to chase after it. The only other time that a smile may come across his features is when he’s surrounded by his family. They are just as important to him as the ocean and his pride after all.
Any future plans:
-His distance from reality might lead to some tricky situations when he is an adolescent. Maybe he’ll even get dragged out to sea during a serious storm? If that happens he might even be considered dead for a short time until he somehow manages to make his way home again.
-I want Kaiaka to come back to earth at some point, so there needs to be someone to chase him down and make him understand what love really is. Basically I want him to fall in love, slowly of course since it would take him a while to realize it himself. By then the girl may have given up on him and then it would be his turn to chase her.
-For his future role in the pride, I’m thinking it would either be as a nyangumi or as a pomithi

Thank goodness I just spotted this here, so glad I didn't miss!
Username: Mei silja
Cub name: Almy
Name meaning: Emerald sea
Personality: Almy is a bit of an odd ball, he tries to shine bright to be noticed in such a large family. Still he tends not to really shine at anything, except telling stories. He loves telling his brothers and sisters stories he makes up about fish or things. So when his parents are busy, he will tell his siblings a story or two; leaping and jumping, slashing the ground and roaring at a battle part. He strives to be a good, and well learned cub but he always seems to be just so. It doesn’t get him down at all, and he beams happily and chatters on excitedly about a sight he had seen or one he had seen in a dream. Almy is someone to go to when you need a shoulder, because whoever or whatever you are he will smile and greet you with warmth.
There is little he hates, and he can seem lazy when it comes to hunting or fighting; but it doesn’t mean he weak. Instead he rather likes to smile and apologies, or laugh things off. Just never mess with one of his true friends or his siblings. No matter how big the foe, he will stand right by what he thinks is right.
Any future plans:
~I would like him to see his father stand up to someone, to stick up for a friend or even him. To see his dad do something like that will amaze him and he will go and try to protect his siblings and take care of them.
~When it come time for hunting lessons, or even mock fighting; he be called out and ask whats wrong. I would really like for him to not know and run to his mom. She could comfert him and explain not everyone is good at everything; and she was sure he could find what he likes.
~I would love him to have tons of little exploring rp's with his siblings; and with friends. Searching out caves in the cliffs and looking for odd washed up shell's or fish.
~At some time, i would like a pomithi to over hear one of his stories, and ask him if he knew that he could be a pomithi to, and watch cubs and play with them. To have him feel perfect joy and just be happy to fit in. That he has something to do that he really liked would make him happy.
~A friend, someone he finds and helps, that becomes more and more special to him. (I don't care on gender.)
~Enemy, Almy should find someone he simply can not agree with, and thinks is evil. He would want nothing to do with this lion(ess) and rather chase them away from his pride and family; or anyone else.
~I have so many many more, like cub attacks while he is watching them; or other things.

Username: musicaloner7
Cub name: Tysthav
Name meaning: quiet sea {Swedish}
Personality: A very bright, and curious boy, he holds great interest in the world he lives in. He's always wanting to learn of the way's of life, and the different points of views from other's eyes. Tyst always gives others the benefit of the doubt, always giving them a chance. He has a rather quiet, kind, and shy demeanor, but once he warms up to you he's loyal and true. His sweet and innocent disposition can make him a little ignorant to 'bad' situations, but he'll catch on soon enough and evaluate the proper method of carrying out the best choice to make peace. Though he may be quiet and reserved, he’s no coward. He’ll protect another even if he doesn’t know them. A natural instinct in him seems to make him automatically want to protect others with all his might; much like his father. Of course he’d like to try and talk things through with the opposing instigator, but he’s more than ready to put his body before the crosses of ill-minded fighting.
Any future plans: – Looots of family rp, please. I LOVE really connected and involved family’s, it gives way to more in depth future plots.
-Hopefully a few plots for him where he’ll meet many others different from him, where he can learn about their world and how it compares to his own.
-Learning experiences
-More to come the more I RP him and such. These are just a few rough idea’s.
Thank you for this opportunity. This family is so lovely. I’d love to be apart of it. <3

Cub name: Cahya
Name meaning: The light
Personality: Cahya is a happy cub who loves spending time with his family. He looks up to his dad and wants to be like him when he gets older. Chaya likes to go exploring with his siblings, often being the leader of there little exploring groups. He tends to be a bit of a goofball, wanting to cheer others up when there feeling down. He doesn't like to show when he is upset or in a bad mood, instead he just likes to show everyone he's happy so the others don't fuss over him.
Any future plans:
-Family and Pride rps.
-Putting in some situation that make him uncomfortable, so that he can learn from it
-I'd like to do an rp with a girl when he gets old enough and have it end in heart break. Making him a little weary to love after that.

Username: MoonRazor
Cub name: Astrophel
Name meaning: Star lover
Personality: Astrophel is a bit of the weird sort, and can often be found deep in contemplation of matters unknown to all but himself. He has a way of talking to himself, narrating out the sequences of his life and voicing them almost subconsciously. He is afflicted with what is most likely the lion’s version of Asperger syndrome, though a mild case of it, and can at times lack the judgment that would allow him to perceive inappropriate comments or actions in the midst of a conversation.
Still, Astrophel makes up for any deficiencies he has with a beaming cheerfulness that is infectious and that guides him through the tougher parts of life. While saying that he has thick skin is not quite the most accurate way of putting it, he has an uncanny ability to let insults and failures fly over his head like water under a bridge, and wastes little time mourning whatever injustices he might encounter. Instead, he treats everything and everyone to the same sunny smile, no matter the circumstances, and often manages to escape unscathed from situations that would otherwise have caused some grief.
True to his name, Astrophel also holds great affection for the stars. In fact, the first thing, it seems, that he managed to notice upon opening his eyes were the bright spots that twinkled in the darkness above, and since then, he has been filled with great wonder as to what they are. It is not rare for him to be found sitting under the spotted skies, talking aloud, both for his benefit and for that of the celestial bodies hanging above him. Though he expects no reply, he considers them to be bright, living bodies watching him from above, and puts great faith in their protection.
Any future plans:
- When he grows up, I think it would be cute for him to meet his mate by accidentally insulting her, and he would gradually win her over from her initial dislike of him (Astro has no shame; he fears not the sting of rejection)
- I imagine he would remain somewhat childish throughout his life, and would spending time in the company of cubs; I’d love for him to have lots of cub friends when he grows up, and act as an unofficial big brother/second daddy to them
- Maybe a plot in which he realizes that a cub he thought was his friend actually considered him to be weird and dumb and was spreading those thoughts through the pride; he would be upset for a bit, but would most likely drop the subject eventually, thanks to his sunny disposition
- He might develop a nose for lions that would be prone to hurt him, and eventually learn to stay away from them

Username: Day Dreamer427
Cub name: Mbaya'wimbi
Name meaning: Wicked wave in swahili
Personality: He is adventurous, free spirited and loves the swim and surf. He can be a tad bit laid back but he is always lad to meet to face and is a mean and cuddly as a teddy-bear. He will always be there to help someone out in a split second, if they ever need a shoulder to cry on he'll be there. He loves to spend most of his time in water or on the beach collecting sells and . Sometimes he wishes he was a fish. He is and wants to learn so much about the new world around him. He might think if a girl is to boyish that she really is a boy he might treat her like a boy.
As he grows he will most likely always want to have fun and enjoy life much as he did as a cub, i would like him to try to impress the ladies more, but he will always have a genuine care for them and not just a cheap-put-on.
Any future plans:
-As a cub i wouild like for him to spens most of his time with the sea, lots of RP
-As a juv i want him to meet a girl completely out of his league and i want them to become best friends, and he starts falling for her only in her opinion they become to close and she wont wanna take a chance "ruining there friendship"
- I would like him to meet a tom-boy as a cub and thinks she is one of the guys.
-As an adult i would like him to become a full "vegatarian" only eating food that come from the ocean.
- I would really like a fight between a rouge as an adult to show him not everything is fun and games and help him mature.
-As a new adllut i would like him to be a guard and as he grows old i would like him to be an advisor.

Cub name: Adetokunbo
Name meaning: The crown came from over the sea
Personality: As a cub Adetokunbo will be very shy and will only talk to his family members, one elder and one other cub that becomes his best friend (male or female). Adetokunbo will never be away from his mother, for fear of being captured by another predator. However, after being a cub (almost to the stage of being a juve) he will begin to talk to more members of the pride and begin to explore the pride lands. Adetokunbo will not wander off too far though.
Any future plans:
Nothing set in stone, just a couple idea's I thought might be fun to play out. :]
While Adeto is a cub he decides he needs to be brave like his brothers, and he will venture off pride lands. While he is away he gets into a fight with another cub from another pride and (sadly) he looses. Ego bruised and a couple of scrapes later he returns home and realizes that the brute life just isn't for him.
That plot will of course be developed more later with the help of other roleplayers. xD
