Tangir

User Image


Certs: adult
Uncerts: adult

Full Name: Tangir
Meaning: none

Font: #592903

Colorist: Meep
Obtained: CC custom
Date: Mar 2010

Pride/Pack: Rogue
Rank: n/a
Seer: no

Mate: Delphia (Talencia)
Family Bloodlines


Personality: mellow, strong, protective, good
Tangir directs his life by his sense of right and wrong. If something bothers his conscience, he is instantly uncomfortable and seeks to resolve the issue. He has a soft heart that is tugged to the plights of others. He is desperately in love with his mate and all his children.

History: Tangir was separated from his family and old life when he rescued a genet princess. He knows not what happened during the battle, or how the war ended, but as he fled with the injured genet, he met the love of his life. She kindly helped him tend his charge, and showed him the world is not all about conflict and politics. They soon formed a cohesive little family, which grew again when they found and adopted a lost and homeless cub.

They wandered the roguelands for a long while, during which time Xieros grew and left them for spans of time. But their lives changed yet again upon meeting the Zagmuk matriarch. They agreed that this was something worth staying in one place for, and together they sought to make the world a better place through adopting cubs into the pride and protecting the pride as a whole.

A time came, though, when both of them felt it was time to move on. They now are once more in the roguelands.

Ur

User Image


Certs: adol, adult
Uncerts: adol, adult

Full Name: Ur'ahava
Meaning: "water"

Font: #295170

Colorist: Meep
Obtained: pridal RP contest
Date: Aug 2010

Pride/Pack: Bahari'mtoto
Rank: Nyangumi (Guard)
Seer: no

Mate: none
Family Bloodlines


Personality: responsible, understanding, gentle, loving
Due to his past, Ur takes life pretty seriously. He makes sure he has a job to do, and does it to the best of his ability. He feels passionate about his pride, as well, and is likely to offer the shelter of the pride to passing rogues, as that was his need when he was little.

History: His mother tells him that his father left them before he was born. Burned into his memory was the dangerous journey while he was a cub, passing through the roguelands, looking for a new home. By the time they reached Bahari'mtoto, he had grown to a juvenile. The relief of his mother at finding a safe haven had a powerful impact on him, forging his dedication to the pride.

As an adult, he settled comfortably into his role as border guard. He took time and care to invite rogues to the pride if they looked as if they could use a safe place too. He kept his mother living in his den, the better to look after and protect her. But then the fateful day of the tsunami happened, and the world turned on its head.

The massive wave picked him up and swept him far into the roguelands, separating him from his mother and the life he knew. He struggled to get his bearings and find his way home again, with the help of a dubious lioness. It was a relief to make it home, and he is determined never to leave again.

Maddi

User Image


Certs: adult
Uncerts: adult

Full Name: Madende
Meaning: "trill" in Swahili

Font: #741ab0

Colorist: Saffy
Obtained: custom-in
Date: June 2011

Pride/Pack: Tianxia
House: West
Rank: Artisan
Seer: No

Mate: plotted
Family Bloodlines


Personality: expressive, demure, delighted, gentle
Maddi has experienced enough in life thus far to teach her the value of friendship, loyalty, safety, and beauty. She savors lovely things for the sake of their beauty, no longer feeling the need to possess it in order to enjoy it. She has softened her attitude towards others, and is a forgiving, loving, easy-going individual.

History: Her cubhood was carefree, resulting in her being quite spoiled, strong-willed, and assertive as a youngster. She had already picked out who her Pad would be before he even left to retrieve his first banu. However, chaos struck the pride before she could rise to her desired status as a favorite wife, and everyone she grew up with was scattered to the four winds.

Living alone in the roguelands taught her much about the pampered life she'd led, and about her own faults. By the time she found herself on the borders of Tianxia, she was ready to stop just surviving on her own and find a life in a stable pride, one that wouldn't encourage the same things her birth-pride had. She found not only a new pride in Tianxia, but a new passion. She found she was good at dance, and became an artist of sorts. She now lives contentedly, dancing for joy and pleasure, and finding the beautiful things in life to fulfill herself.

Full Name: Awani'shairi
Meaning: "Beastsong" in Swahili

Font: #324367

Colorist: Eski
Obtained: custom cosplay of a WoW druid
Date: Aug 2010

Pride/Pack: Kitwana'Antara pending app
Rank: TBD
Seer: No

Mate: Sliabh pending
Family Bloodlines


Personality: unafraid, independent, responsible, altruistic
Awani lives for what is right, and for the strong protecting the weak. She has strong beliefs, and will refuse to bend or break her personal rules. She is a dveoted mother and a true friend.

History: Awani's wandering rogue life changed when she met a large, gentle lion. He was on a mission, seeking to strengthen the bloodline of his diseased pride. She was touched by their story, and impressed with his dedication to the plight of his own. She agreed willingly to bear him a litter of cubs for him to take back home. She had insisted on going back with him to see this pride, to ensure her cubs would be treated well and lovingly. There was no question the big male would love them, but would the rest of the pride accept hybrids?

She was more than reassured, and soon left with one little female from her litter. They journeyed together across the roguelands until Awani found a pride that would accept her daughter, and who fought for those unable to fight for themselves. It seemed a good match, and she chose to settle down and become a member of a pride for the first time in her life.

She had settled into the pride and become a working member of it, when she met a skinny, malnourished, weak lion male. She offered friendship, and eventually more than just friendship. They could have been called mates, or just friends with benefits, but there was no denying that a strong relationship of respect and kindness developed. Awani gave birth to two cubs, and all was well. However, Ufisadi's life cane to a tragic but noble end when he died protecting their cubs.

Awani's heart was heavy, but she kept on for the sake of her cubs. When they were grown, the pride fell apart, leaving them without a home. It was time to visit their relatives in K'A, she decided, and so they traveled the long distance to meet not only the family she already knew, but some new arrivals as well. Surprised at how contented she felt there, and delighted to reacquaint herself with her old friend, Sliabh, she and her grown cubs decided to remain in the pride and make it their new home.

Haruma

User Image


Certs: cub, juve, adol, adult
Uncerts: cub, juve, adol, adult, with edits

Full Name: Haruma'moyo
Meaning: "sympathy in the heart" in Swahili

Font: #d59015

Colorist: Meep
Obtained: RP contest
Date: Aug 2011

Pride/Pack: Kitwana'Antara
Disease Status: Carrier
Rank: Healer
Seer: No

Mate: Eudeyrn (Dulcea)
Family Bloodlines


Personality: caring, tender-hearted, determined, long-suffering
Haruma is a very motherly sort of lioness. She prefers to look after others, to ease their hearts and soothe their pains. She isn't a horrible stickler for the rules, but she believes that to love means to respect as well. She is a devoted mate and doting mother.

History: As a cub, Haruma was abandoned by her panicked mother along with her two siblings. They were rescued by members of the Kitwana'antara, which was a mixed blessing, since they lived to grow up, but gained the disease. Being an orphan, Haruma took it upon herself to adopt a lion she was drawn to, claiming him as her father as long as he didn't mind. He didn't, and she and her siblings became his first cubs. After that point, Sliabh went on to sire many many cubs, and Haruma became a cross between a big sister and surrogate mother.

As she grew, her maturity far out-stripped her age. She apprenticed herself to the healer Gerda, learning herblore first and best. Even after becoming an adult and having those with the rank specifically to gather herbs for healing, Haruma finds herself doing it herself out of enjoyment. Also early in her life, she met the male who was to become her childhood sweetheart and adult mate. Nothing could have made her happier, even though Eu has always been sickly. It wasn't his outside she loved best, but his inner heart. Together, they have had a litter of cubs that is the delight of Haruma's life, despite the sorrow of the pride. At this point, she's ready to be a grandma!

Jazua

User Image


Certs: adult
Uncerts: adult

Full Name: Jazua'Dania
Meaning: gift of the earth" in Swahili

Font: #552b2b

Colorist: Lithia
Obtained: M&M not-breeding
Date: Sept 2010

Pride/Pack: Aka'mleli
Rank: Hunter
Seer: No

Mate: none
Family Bloodlines


Personality: practical, distrustful, broken, bitter
Jazua is fiercely independent and resents any necessary reliance on someone else. Her current situation has left a sour taste in her mouth, even though she now remains in the pride by choice. She's terribly conflicted lately, and likely on the brink of a personality shift of some sort.

History: She and her twin grew up in a perfectly average sort of family, but somehow her twin was dissatisfied and struck out on her own. The sensible one of the pair, Jazua decided to head out after her sister when Jazi did not return. She tracked her across the roguelands, but had to admit she needed a place to shelter during the dry season. About that time, a rude and lofty male decided he would claim her and take her to his pride. She had thought he'd take her as (one of his many) banu. However, upon discovering her twin was already there, Raja rejected her, relegating her as a kajira, or rebellious female.

Granted, Jazua rarely guarded her tongue, but she was learning quickly that such behavior got her nowhere. It was very disgruntling to be given an unsavory rank without a by-your-leave, and without being given credit for learning the pride's odd ways. Unfortunately for Jazua, she then gave birth to a litter of cubs. Raja took them from her, as a kajira wasn't a fit mother for his cubs. When two of her daughters showed the inclination to be strong-willed and stubborn, like their mother, she endeavored to help them escape, since she was certain they would end up in the same position as she. She bore the harsh consequences with the knowledge that her daughters were safe.

Shortly thereafter the pride disbanded, giving Jazua the chance to escape. However, with her body already much abused, her headlong flight sapped her of all strength, muscle, and awareness. She ended up stranded in Aka'mleli, wounded and in need of recuperation. In this serene pride, she will eventually find peace, as well as the freedom she had sought for so long.
