Personality: Raylan is a very kind lioness, much the opposite of her father. She is determined to prove that she can do anything, and will never give up if she can help it.
History: Born in Nyekundu’s oasis before his death, she ran away at a very young age in an attempt to escape the horrible life he had created for her. Often told she was worthless and thought little of for being female, it feeds her need to be accepted. She found shelter with Nitesh of the Unity Walkers, hiding from her father (whom she did not know was dead) in the safety of the jungle pride - at least until one of her many sisters found her. When she met Misae that day, the young lioness told her that she would find what she was looking for. At the time, Raylan had no idea what it meant. It wasn't until after she'd found a mate, and a unusual group of traveling companions, that Misae's words came back to her. After traveling for a long while with her mate, five cubs (one adopted), and a troupe of hyenas in tow, her unlikely little gang finally found a permanent home among the lions of the Bahari pride.
