Personality: Jiryan was always easy-going and a bit playful, although his move to the Firekin lands has made him a little more on edge. He is over protective of his family, and would die to save any of them.
History: He was the result of a fling between his mother and father, a spoiled pridelander female a Firekin male living a rogue life. He was raised by his mother and her later mate, Shaji, and led a rather uneventful life while he was growing up. However, when he reached adolescence his sister Kat told him of a vision she had of their father in the distant Firekin lands and he set out in an attempt to find him with his sister Kepi in tow. Before he reached the Firekin, he and his sister parted ways, and just before he reached the heart of the desert pride he met a female down on her luck in the middle of the desert. Despite her rude nature, he forced her to let him help, and he traveled with her back to her pride. Upon return, he found out she was the queen of the Firekin traditionalist pride. It didn't take long for the pair to develop a strange relationship between them, and they soon had a large litter of cubs. Kenna then decided to take what traditionalists would go with her and merge with the rebels' pride, and Jiryan dutifully followed.
