Valuable Treasure: Fruit is always treasure to the pirates... particularly when fermented. wink Females: They're almost always corsairs. I want me some LEOPARDName: Jioni Meaning: Evening (Swahili) Song: Vanilla Twilight - Owl CityPersonality: Jioni is a reserved leopard who rarely talks about his past. He works faithfully and is dedicated to his command, but on his off time prefers to wander down to the beach and reflect quietly to himself rather than socialize. He rarely speaks to the females in the pride, though one or two have caught him staring at them, not in a lustful or desiring fashion, but in a wistful and almost lonely fashion. All in all, he has an air of mystery about him, but he's just a quieter type with a few regrets in his past. I want me some WILD DOGName: Anapenda'Chama Meaning: Likes to Party (Swahili) Song: Burn it to the Ground - NickelbackPersonality: Where there is fermented fruit, or some kind of a celebration, there's a high likelihood of finding Anapenda. A true party animal, this wild dog is loud, raucous, and an over-the-top flirt. He wants absolutely nothing more than to get thoroughly drunk on every possible occasion - and when he gets drunk, he gets rowdy. He's one that needs a - pardon the term - a firm leash on him to keep him from doing more harm to the pride than good. Fortunately, he's also very prone to being distracted by the ladies. I want me some LEOPARDName: Amefungwa'Chini Meaning: Bound down (Swahili) Song: My Fate - Anna Tsuchiya Personality: Ame is a broken leopardess. Not completely, but she has been beaten down by events long since past and far out of her control. This leaves her with a morose temperament and a negative outlook on life. She dreams of a better future, but doesn't see much hope of it becoming a reality, and she's afraid to try. In the end, all she wants is rescued from her own misery, so that she can be emotionally free of the many things that trouble her. I want me some OCEAN DEPTHSName: Kostya Meaning: Constant (Slavic) Song: The Saltwater Room - Owl CityPersonality: Kostya is something of a lonely soul. Prone to pacing along the beach at night, he often gets lost in thought and loses track of the world around him. He has a vivid imagination and a romantic soul. He's gentle, and as a result of these aspects of his personality he is a rather inept pirate, and to be honest he only tries hard enough to get by. If he could get away with it, he would spend most of his time composing romantic poems in the moonlight. He is loyal to those whom he gives his heart to, and will go out of his way to prevent hurting them in any manner. I want me some SANDY SHORESName: Mchanga'Maua Meaning: Sand Flower Song: Kiss From a Rose - SealPersonality: Mchanga is a lioness with a quiet, subtle kind of beauty. Though her looks are attractive enough, her demeanor is where her true loveliness shines through. While many other members of the pride, both male and female, are loud and raucous, she keeps her head and makes it her duty to clean up the messes that they leave behind. She seeks out little ways to be helpful, little kindnesses to do - things that are rarely noticed but that are key to the survival of any pride. She's always willing to lend a listening ear to someone who needs it, though she does not generally offer advice - merely comfort.

Fermented Fruit is highly prized, as are turtle shells, Pelts, Food, and really anything of value. Females are usually always Corsairs, though some can be Crew if they work very hard at it. I want me some OCEAN DEPTHS Name: Barinthus Meaning: Gaelic One of the names for the God of the Sea Song: Savin Me NickelBack Song Link Lyric LinkPersonality: He lives in neither world really, being part mer and part land dweller. Having four feet he can only pine fot the ocean always feeling hemmed in by the confines of the Pride and the land around him, almost feeling like a prisoner. He silently calls for his sister, hoping she will come for him, and show him what the other part of his heritage is like. In a way he feels like the last lion standing since most of his kin were wiped out by the plague that killed the mermaids. He sometimes feels like an outcast within the Pirates, though he works hard at being crew and gives all he can to the ship he is assigned to, yet there is always a part of him that yearns for the sea and that need to be within the ocean and its depths. It calls to him, just as he calls to his sister, needing her to hear him and maybe some day come and let him show her just what he can be, helping him to save himself from the inner turmoil he seldom shows anyone. Outwardly he is a competent crew member. The typical strong, silent, type. I want me some WILD DOG Name: Rinor Meaning: young or warrior Song: Winterborn Cruxshadows Song Link Lyrics LinkPersonality: Rinor was part of a pack who whose territory was overrun by hyenas. He was the last line of defense, having been only in training. It was the trainees and a handful of retired fighters who met the attack, buying time for the rest of the pack to escape. Rinor survived. Mostly. He came to the Pirates angry, edgy, reckless and bleeding inside. His suicidal runs for loot have paid off for the crews he is assigned to. With a caustic wit, and dry sense of humor, he is loyal, but on a path of self destruction unless someone can reach him and show him that life still holds something worth sticking around for. I want me some LEOPARD Name: Avina Meaning: heir Song: my Mamma Said Aqua Song Link Lyric LinkPersonality: Avina was the only cub her mother had. Her father died protecting them, which shattered her mother. Her mother and her were very close, and they were each other's strength and company till the very end. No one is really sure how Avina's mother died, but however it was it has left her a little lost. Despite her scowly demeanor, her nature is actually very loving and giving, and you can see it when the Crews come in hurt, or when they get sick from to much fermented fruit or a cub or young Missioner is ill. Avina is a quiet Corsair, and most mistake her frowns and unhappy look for anger, but reality, its just her grieving over the loss of her mother and really, her only true friend. I want me some SANDY SHORES Name: Drina Meaning: Gypsy Song:Nada es para siempre-Luis Fonsi Song Link Lyric LinkPersonality: Drina is in love with a crew member well....many... ( hopefully many will bite lol) but she knows and understands how fleeting the life of a Pirate is, so she lives for the moment every time he...er...they...are in port. The fermented fruit flows, the moonlight shines, the dancing and long..very long walks along the shores commence and Drina and her love(s) spend those magical moments being serenaded by the sea. Of course she excepts all trinkets they wish to bestow as signs of their undying devotion and she expresses her own heartfelt emotion to them as well. Which is never a lie for she truly means it...in that moment.

Question one: What is considered a 'valuable treasure'? Anything of any kind of worth. Such as : Turtle shells, Fruits, Foods, Pelts, Trinkets. Question two: What are most females ranked as? Corsair. I want me some LEOPARD Name: Mahershalalhashbaz ( mah her shal al hash baz ) Meaning: ' He speeds to plunder and to the prey ' Song: Ensiferum - Tumman Virran Taa (with lyrics) Personality: 'Shala' has no qualms about his calling in life, he knows it without question. He is perhaps, the most sure footed cat you will ever meet. He's got his head on right, and will not deviate from the path laid out before him. Shala is defiantly loyal and takes pride in that fact.
I want me some LEOPARD Name: Tifaimoana ( TEE fai MOAH nah ) Meaning: ' Treasure from the ocean ' Song: Rammstein - Haifisch, Translated lyrics ( On the right column ) Personality: Tifai is not arrogant, but she knows that she's good at whatever she does. No matter if it's lending a paw to care for another, or using that same paw to scratch your eyes out. Not one to talk, but makes for a good diligent worker. Tifai tends to keep her warmer emotions on the inside.

Question one: What is considered a 'valuable treasure'? Anything deemed worthy by the captain and commadore. Question two: What are most females ranked as? Corsair I want me some OCEAN DEPTHSName: Adrastos Meaning: "Not inclined to run away" Song: Hero by Enrique Iglesias Personality: Adrastos fled to the pride after encountering some trouble in the roguelands, wanting the nearest pride for safety. For safety sake, he stayed, becoming a full fledged member of their society. Not having grown up around the customs of it, he's unused to a few of the expectations of a male. The biggest being marriage not being very important. Adrastos is a charmer. A hero in the typical bedtime stories you would tell your little one. He's always there to lend a hand to a female who needs it, often getting himself into trouble when he can't say no. He believes they should be protected. He's also quite the romantic.
I want me some SANDY SHORES Name: Galadriel Meaning: Maiden crowned with a radiant garland Song: Night Nurse by Cascada Personality: A good case of "Don't judge a book by its cover." Galadriel looks like a sweet little thing who would do the biding of anyone who asked her within a heartbeat. And she certainly tries to keep that appearance around others. Like the song suggests, she isn't the mating for life type and very much enjoys the life of a single lady. She has a take charge attitude, and, though she does the duty of a female just fine, she's not one who can be kicked around easily. Galadriel isn't afraid to fight back if someone were to bully her. No matter their rank.
I want me some LEOPARD Name: Sabia Meaning: Nothing, just the latinized version of Sadb. Song: Talk is Cheap by Miley Cyrus Personality: More of a background type song. There was a time Sabia, long before the pride, had a potential mate who turned into a not-so-good leopard. Cared more for himself. Left her alone for days, weeks at a time. She's thankful they never had cubs, because she up and left one day after losing too much of her patience with dealing with him. Now she's a rather bitter and grumpy feline. Very untrustworthy of most around her, 'specially of the male variety. She let herself be taken advantage of before. She won't anymore.

Valuable Treasure: Fermented fruit, babeh. ;D And turtle shells. Females: Corsairs, unless they are apart of an all female crew. I want me some OCEAN DEPTHS Name: Genitivi Meaning: The English translation says that it is serving or expressing posession. Song: El Tango De Roxanne - Jose FelicianoPersonality: Genitivi was once a calm individual who kept his feelings to himself, and only shared his signature smiles. Then she came. As adolescents, they were lovers, and as adults, she chose another over him because of what the other lion could give her. While she was always out for power, Genitivi was in it for love. Now that she's effectively kept him on a string for most of his adult life, he's finally starting to go mad from it. He can't let her go, not when she talks to him like that, but at the same time, he can't keep her. This causes Genitivi to go throw fits and snap at any well wishing person who happens to get to close. Some nights, fermented fruit is the only thing that can fight back his demons, and others, he's strong enough to over come them.

Female pridemembers are usually corsairs. A valuable treasure is anything the commodore or captains see as having worth; these can include fruit, pelts, turtle shells, food, and trinkets. I want me some OCEAN DEPTHS Name: Tangeroa Meaning: A god of the ocean. Song: Under the Boardwalk by the Drifters Personality: Tangeroa is not actually a very good pirate, because he is always more interested in wenching then he is in going out with his ship and bringing back loot. He's always on the beach with a lady, where he can tell them in a husky voice how beautiful they are and admire the sparkle in their eyes as they complement him back. When he has a lady friend and does go out, he does his part in fights, but he doesn't actually care about loot. He just wants to get back to the beach and the ladies and the sun, and he usually gives his loot to his girlfriend to impress her. The difficulty Tangeroa has is that he actually falls in love with every one he tries to woo. He'll stay with them, for a few weeks or a few seasons, until he grows bored, but he says he never stops loving them. He gets mopey when a relationship ends, and this emo time for him is when he's the most use on the ships, going out and being very active, trying to prove he doesn't miss the girl, bringing in loads of loot and sharing his part around. Then he falls in love with someone else and the cycle happens again. As a result, he has more then a few litters running around with little fishies on their bums . . . Tangeroa doesn't miss the mermaids, as he doesn't really remember them. His entire life is fun, sand, surf, and females.

Answer one: Primarily, foods, fruits, pelts, trinkets, turtle shells... Or just about anything, especially if the Commodore and/or Captain(s) find(s) valuable. Answer two: Corsair, Huntress, or Slave are the most common, though if a female really proves herself, she could be a Crewman, First Mate, or even Captain if she's REALLY good. I want me some SANDY SHORESName: Chantez sur-la'plage Meaning: Sing on the beach Song: Honky Tonk Badonkadonk by Trace Adkins (I BLAME FU xd ) Personality: Very care-free, Chantez will dance with anyone. No, really, she will. Male, female, lion, leopard, cheetah... She doesn't care. But she has a secret - She wants to dance exclusively with one of the captains, or even the Commodore. It's not for any sort of status... Okay, yes it is. She wants to be able to rub it in the noses of the other girls, because if anything, she's a bit vain. Okay, a lot of vain. If she's not flaunting above someone, she's not happy, which could easily mean she's always unhappy... Or always happy.
