Name: Asali
Meaning: Honey
Species: Lioness
Gender: Female
Mate: Ozark
Offspring: --
Pride: Kizingo'zaa
Rank: Healer
Seer: No

Roleplay color: #eb6c02


. razz ersonality:.
Gentle and friendly, she is a happy, well adjusted if lonely lioness. Born a rogue, she left her family when she grew into an adult, needing, as all youngsters do, to spread her wings away from the nest. Yet almost immediately she lost track of where she was and where she had left her family. Within months all hope of ever finding them again had vanished and so, she turned an struck out on her own. Barely managing to feed herself and with absolutely no sense of direction what so ever.. its a miracle that she hasn't succumbed to another predator or the elements so far. Luckily, she stumbled across the Kizingo'zaa, and its a chance she is going to grasp with both paws.

.:Rank Info:.
Healer. With her future mate as an Usher, it seems fitting that Asali would deal with life in contrast to his death. Together, they would look after both ends of the pride's needs and as partners, could work together to aid their patients more effectively.

.:History:.
Having been born to rouge parents she has never had pride to call her own, but desperately wishes for a family, a pride to love and to be loved by, to support and be given support. Shes just not one of those that is built for life as a rogue. The Kizingo'zaa pride suits her, for she is not quiet all there in the head sometimes. She adores cubs and is a friend to everyone she meets, but there is an innocence about her that would leave her vulnerable if she stayed a rogue. She also has no sense of direction and is incredibly forgetful, often loosing her kills not to another lion or a hyena, but to the fact that she simply forgets where she left it...

. razz ersonality:.
Friendly and calm, he is a middle-aged boy with a lot of miles under his flight feathers. Not much surprises him but he has time for everyone if they want to talk to him. Just a generally nice guy who likes to help out those in need.

.: Relationship to Asali:.
He is Asali's connection to her muse, the wind. She also tends to see him as her inner-voice externalized. Kind of like a seeing-eye dog, he will be the one to help her get about without getting herself hopelessly lost. With her terrible memory and habit of 'loosing' things like a whole pride and having absolutely no sense of direction, she stays on the beach and close to the pride for fear of misplacing them. But with Pahana around, she can go into the forest after herbs and plants for her healing and be guaranteed to return later that day.

. razz ersonality:.
Quiet and shy around strangers but bubbly and fun when with her close friends. She loves all her parents though does find the teasing and taunts difficult to handle. Not even realising that her situation wasn't the norm until she began to socialise with other cubs, the cruelty all young ones are capable off is hard for her to bear, making her more withdrawn than she would naturally have been. It takes some years for her to regain her balance, but she never stops loving all her family and is utterly devoted to them.

.:Contest reply:.
Curling her tail round her paws, the young cub trembled, slim frame curled up tight under the bush. Tucking her head against her short, stubby forelegs she couldn't hold them in any more. Body shaking as great heartbroken sobs trembled through her. Why.... why did they say such nasty things? Why did they call her names? Mom and Dad loved her... they did! She knew they did! They had too.... The tiny, pleading voice in her mind begged desperately. Ears pressing back against pale fur, vivid green eyes squeezed shut tight as a sharp pain pierced her heart. Tears matted white fur, streaking down thin cheeks to decorate the dust at her paws. "M-mom...... Dad..... where are you.. where are you..."

Darkness surged forwards, sweeping through her, tainting everything as it flooded her chest with a deep, searing tightness and burned at her eyes. Limbs trembled with the force of the grief that overwhelmed her, forcing tiny paws to dig into the ground, clutching at the earth as the darkness threatened to drag her spinning into the depths of despair. "M-mom.... I love you.. please, please, I love you..... say they are wrong.. please! They have to be wrong! You love me! You and daddy both love me! You said so... Papa and Mama love me too!! You told me, you promised! Please.... please.... " Curling up in a tight little ball, body shaking with the force of her heart wrenching sobs, the tiny cub trembled and cried. Breath escaping in strained gasps as a high, pain-filled keening slipped from parted maw. White fur streaked with muck from the brush, rocking slowly, back and forth, back and forth. So alone, so very alone with the sounds of childish taunts and sneering adult voices echoing in her ears.


"Your mom doesn't love your dad, your mom doesn't love you. You're weird, your family is weird. No one loves you... you aren't good enough for your mom, you made her go with that rogue. That filthy rogue. It's your fault you know, it's all your fault. It has always been your fault. If only you hadn't been born your mom wouldn't be sick! You did that to her, you hurt her. You made her ill. Stealing her life. Selfish! You're so selfish! Selfish child. Disgusting child."

Gasping, the pain in her chest a living, breathing thing fighting to get out, she panted harshly, unable to catch her breath, unable to see as tears streamed from closed eyes. Yet even behind the lids the voices remained, echoing, taunting, tearing, cruel, hateful, jealous. "Why don't you live with dad like the others? What did I do wrong? Please mom.. tell me what I did... why are you sick, Im sorry.. I'm so sorry, please forgive me. I beg you, please forgive me."

Diseased: Immune
Seer: No

Roleplay color: #3a5761
Obtained: Mix&Match Breeding custom
Colourist: Cajanic


. razz ersonality:.
Caoilainn is a very bright young lady, brought up in the roguelands for the first few months of her life then moved to the KA pride, she is a very confident girl with a lot of energy and time for those less fortunate than herself, as she is immune. She has alway been a total tomboy and that wont change, but she has taken on quite a few responsibilities of her own accord, looking after her extended family and generally helping out her adoptive mother when Eva'raja is too busy with her healer work to mind the many younger cubs of her father's. She aspires to become a spy in order to safeguard her large family and the pride. Larger than a regular lioness she takes after her father in height and strength, but is rather more slender than him and quite quick-footed and nimble. She is very independent and will not be pushed around by any male.

.:History:.


.:Notes:.
Several saints were Caoilainn and one was described as "a pious lady who quickly won the esteem and affection of her sister nuns by her exactness to every duty, as also by her sweet temper, gentle, confiding disposition and unaffected piety."

Name: Asante Kwa'maisha
Meaning: 'Thank you for life' (swahili)
Nickname: Asante / Maisha
Species: Lion
Gender: Male
Mate: Incendia
Offspring: --
Pride: Jini-misemi
Rank: Provisionary - Hunter
Seer: No

Roleplay color: #645346


. razz ersonality:.
Down to earth yet carefree, Astante is not one to take offence easily. He loves nothing more than to live life to the full, enjoying every moment and rarely worrying about the future. Though he is certainly not without awareness, even as he is playing he never forgets about those around him, always looking out for their well being. Under the playful, carefree exterior lives a lion who was forged within the strict lines of an old, heavily traditional pride. With his laid-back and friendly personality it is hard to imagine him as a prince, though that is exactly what he is.

.:History:.
Born Zawadi Ya'tatu, the third son of the pride's leaders, Asante was raised under the full weight of the crown, following in his father's footsteps, expected to rise above all the other pride youths in hunting, philosophy, worship and leadership. To be as his father, a serious, worldly lion who never smiled and rarely praised his cubs, Asante grew up as an old mind in a young body. Yet the restrained young cub had one thing he managed to keep from his tutors... He would slip away after his classes were over for the day, and walk the pridelands, not as the Takatifu Duniani's youngest prince, but as Njema'mwana; son of an elderly couple who mistook the young prince for their dead child. It was not deciet, for he had told them of their mistake the first day they found him, sneeking about the lowest areas of the pride's home, and yet they took him in, begged him to visit when he could and relieve the loneliness. With both close to the end of their lives, he could not find a reason to refuse and thus, every few days he would visit them, bringing back kills for them when he was old enough to hunt and simply spending time with them near their den. He made several friends among the poorest members of the pride, none of whom ever saw the young princes and thus, never realised his true identity.
Eventually, his two older brothers rose to become the next Heir and the heir's advisor. For Asante, the fact that there was no place for him was a devastating blow, and yet he discovered that he was still expected to do as told, to become a member of the council. He knew he would never be accepted, the council was made up of older lions, their experience raising them above the rest of the pride. Asante, doomed forever to live within the shadows of his brothers without any chance to prove himself, finally snapped. One night, after the rest of the pride had fallen asleep, the young male slipped away from his family's den and left the Takatifu Duniani and vanished into the roguelands. Assumed dead by his family, Asante changed his name and now lives alone, free and happier than he has ever been in his life.


.:Notes:.
The markings on his face, tail and hind legs are only found in the royal line of the Takatifu Duniani pride. He usually tries and hides them under dirt or bits of leaf and grass he picks up.

Pride: Myrsky Syntynyt (Stormborn)

Seer: No

Roleplay color: #d7ac5e
Obtained: Gift from Pinch
Colourist: Ecavi


. razz ersonality:.
Lennart is not your average, brash, loud-mouthed Stormborn. Though as a cub he is the typically bouncy, curious and energetic youth. As he grows he becomes calmer, more serious and is wholly dedicated to the pride and his family. Though he does know how to relax with his war-brothers and enjoy himself. He always knows he will become a reaver, there is simply no other option for him in his mind, and he will dedicate himself to being worthy of the title. A natural born leader, he is honest, hard working, fair and always polite.

.:History:.
Son of Reaver Taraxa out of the lioness Moray. Returned with his father and siblings to the pride.

.:Future:.
He will be forced into becoming a captain.. His band voting him into the position when they loose their first in a raid and he, being a responsible lion, accepts it for the duration of their mission in order to protect his fellow stormborn. Unfortunately for him, he proves to be very good at his new role and his friends/pridemates playfully press-gang him into keeping it. He would be a fair and just leader, never asking anyone to do something he wouldn't do himself and regardless his place in the pride, he will always be on the front lines of any battle.

But after all is said and done~

Name: Mèo Đen
Meaning: "black cat" vietnamese
Nicknames: BC | Black
Species: Leopard
Gender: Male
Stage: Adult
Fraternal Brother: Siyah Kedi
Mate: ~
Offspring: ~
Pride: Voodoo pride | Pepo'porojo
Rank: Guard
Seer: No

Roleplay color: black
Obtained: Random number ~ #13
Colourist: Eskimo


. razz ersonality:.
Mèo Đen is the calmer one of the two brothers. He thinks before he acts and he is the one who makes any final decision on their activities. Mèo is also the one more likely to listen, possessing rather more compassion than his brother. While he is the leader of the two, he is also the more innocent, not that his life has not been hard or bloody its just been a little less bloody than his brothers. The two brothers have such an understanding of each other that they fight like two halves of a whole, rather than as two separate beings. Mèo is the strength and endurance. Both are prime fighters and are perfectly deadly alone, but combined they are a force to be feared.

.:History:.
Meo's early cubhood was difficult. Born of a political pairing, the young cub was given to a lower ranked couple to care for. Slighted by the order to look after the single dark cub, Meo's foster parents treated him poorly. His blood-father was the Council leader, and his mother was a High Priestess. Career driven, the two never once went to visit the young Meo. He didn't exist to them as anything more than the proof that they were a legally mated pair. The all-leopard pride had two factions, and Meo's father was head of one half, his main rival on the council was leader of the other. Life had been tense for months, a fact that Meo could attest to by the frequency of his beatings under the paws of his adoptive parents. Then over night, after weeks of hushed whisperings and midnight visitors, war broke out within the pride. Meo fled after his adoptive parents were slain. With his home destroyed and no reason to stay, the youngster struck out on his own, sore, bloody and heart sick. Weeks past and he survived on insects, small lizards and any scraps he could pick off old kills he stumbled over. Those days were long and hard, but with each one, the young leopard learnt more and more about survival, he learnt to fight but most importantly, he learned how to predict other creature's actions. A skill that was the one gift from his parents, as they had never even given him a name.

Mèo and Siyah met when the cheetah had holed up in a dead valley, a pack of hyena digging furiously to get at the cub in the deep burrows where he had fled. Mèo, unaware of the commotion and looking for a safe place to spend the night, had slipped into the network of old tunnels originally dug by burrowing owls, and enlarged over time by a variety of species. The two cubs found their way into the interior chamber, the air filled with the frantic scrabbling and snarls of the hyenas outside. When the dark cubs finally emerged hours later, three hyenas lay dead, another was badly wounded, and the rest had fled. From that day on, the pair were inseparable.

Name: Siyah Kedi
Meaning: 'Black Cat' [Turkish]
pronunciation: Siyah (Sea-ah) Kedi (Keh-De)
Species: Cheetah
Gender: Male
Stage: Adult
Fraternal Brother: Mèo Đen
Mate: None
Offspring: --
Pride: Voodoo pride | Pepo'porojo
Rank: Guard
Seer: No

Roleplay color: Black
Obtained: Scary story contest
Colourist: Slander


. razz ersonality:.
Siyah Kedi is bold and brash, inclined to solve problems with claws first and often not bothering to ask questions after. Protective of his brother, he sees his brother's generosity as a liability and is the one who prevents Mèo from being used by others for their own gain. Often considered callus, Mèo is the only one he cares about and he doesn't hide that fact. A formidable fighter in his own right, together the two brothers are almost unstoppable. Possessing such an understanding of each other that they fight like two halves of a whole, rather than as two separate beings. Siyah possesses speed and accuracy. Both are prime fighters and are perfectly deadly alone, but combined they are a force to be feared.

.:History:.
Siyah, abandoned a few weeks after birth, had scratched a living on the edge of the existence by scavenging old kills and lurking about the edges of warring prides, picking at the fallen carcasses. A fierce and wild cub he constantly fought for even the few scraps he did manage to snatch, his main enemies being hyenas and vultures. At the time Mèo and Siyah met, the cheetah had holed up in a dead valley, a pack of hyena digging furiously to get at the cub in the deep burrows where he had fled. Mèo, unaware of the commotion, had slipped into the network of old tunnels originally dug by burrowing owls, and enlarged over time by a variety of species. The two cubs found their way into the interior chamber, the air filled with the frantic scrabbling and snarls of the hyenas outside. When the two dark cubs finally emerged, three hyenas lay dead, another was badly wounded, and the rest had fled. From that day on, the pair were inseparable.

. razz ersonality:.
A calm, quite male he is a hard worker and very reliable. He speaks little but when he does its not simply useless chatter. He has a very polite, almost stiff manner of speaking and his actions are the same. He treats females as they ought to be treated, as something to care for and protect, males are honoured and given respect. If pushed he can, and will fight, though he isn't very good at it, for all his strength he is too honest and simply doesn't see when an opponent is using a fake move or otherwise playing him. This also makes him easy to swindle, though really... one is never sure if he simply doesn't realise, or if he does and is happy to let them use him. Some suspect the latter, as he has shown a startling ability for insight into another's heart and mind, refusing to do anything that would hurt others, even when the plot was especially convoluted and twisted.

Katu is a philosopher, when he isn't moving the stones around, he contemplates them and the gods they represent. He is often found up on the mountain side, gazing up at the sky or at the shines below thoughtfully. It is not that the questions of the universe particularly bother him, he is just the kind to mull things over, to question and hypothesise to himself without ever telling anyone of his conclusions. He rarely speaks but when he does, he is perfectly polite, even if the other person is not so.
