Name: Dabiku Meaning: Sacrifice or offering in Swahili Age: Adult Personality: She was once part of a pride, at birth, but they chased her out because she didn't pass their hunting exam.
In her original pride, each lion had to pass a test upon becoming an adolescent. If they failed, they had two choices. They could leave the pride or become one of the lowest castes. No member of the hunter castes could look these failed lions in the eyes. Dabiku chose to leave, thinking the system unfair.
Dabiku is an average huntress. Her father was the best hunter in her entire pride, and he was extremely disappointed in her when she failed their exam. During the darkest part of the night, those moments before sunrise, Dabiku often dreams of returning home to her family and friends. Once the sun rises and pours its heat across the Savannah, she finds that she enjoys life as a rogue. She may long for a pride like her own, but she dislikes being pigeonholed somewhere just to belong.
She has a very snarky sense of humor. Playfulness is a large part of her personality; she believes in having a good outlook on life. She has a hard time truly trusting other lions until they prove their goodwill to her. This is because of her upbringing in a warrior-oriented pride. On the flip side, she is surprised by any and all acts of kindness, and she considers herself indebted to those who commit them. She seems rather friendly to lions who first meet her, as she believes in giving a good impression. Those who are unfriendly beg for fights, in her opinion. However, she will not shy away from fights - even those with much better warriors - because she feels that she has something to prove after her failed adolescent exam.
Dabiku is a loyal friend to those she trusts. She has a stern sense of right and wrong that normally gets her into trouble. Her belief is that the future can overwrite the past, so she endeavors to make the most of her present time on the Savannah. She believes in warrior gods and goddesses, but has a hard time believing in other Savannah deities, because her old pride forsook all but those who ruled over battle.
Her old pride is based off Ancient Sparta and their caste system with the agoge.
