Start time: NOW
End time: 1 week from today. So Monday at 2:00pm Eastern Time.
This contest is a little bit different. As this male will be a very... very unique job. In fact, your job is to come up with a new rank and job for him, that only him does for the pride! We already have a 'Turok Macto'... just as a note so no redo's of that one. Feel free to be creative with it.
To enter for this manly man... fill out the form below.
[b]Name:[/b] (Your name)
[b]SOA Name:[/b] (his name)
[b]Meaning[/b]: (the language and meaning please! We prefer Navi, which is available online but African is acceptable!)
[b]Rank title[/b]: (The title of his rank)
[b]Rank description[/b]: (Describe his job. What does he do. What does it involve?)
[b]Whom does he follow most:[/b] (To clarify, either the current king and his more open minded ways or the kings brother, whom wishes to keep things the way it used to be.)
This boys contest is over! <3

Name: Mtorolite
SOA Name: Peya Tse'a
Meaning: Wait and See (Navi)
Rank title: Fwew Tikzey (Seeks mistakes)
Rank description: Peya's job isn't a nice one. It's not even a generally known one. Peya is the one that keeps an eye on everyone.
Peya answers only to the Spiritual Leader and the Warrior Leader. He is their eyes and ears in all things. He is responsible for knowing everything that goes on in the pride - and making sure nothing gets out of hand. He serves as part master spy, part secret enforcer, part quiet advisor. If an outsider seeks entry into the pride, he is there to help evaluate them. He always knows what is going on.
To be clear, the Fwew Tikzey is not a terrifying position. He doesn't have much power himself; his job is to gather information, and, when absolutely necessary, to act on it secretly. Maybe once or twice in his life he would be called on to do more then observe and evaluate people. In fact, most of the pride doesn't even know the position exists- the Fwew Tikzey is brought up to the post quietly, is usually the son or daughter of the previous Fwew Tikxey, and is usually trained from cubhood to be good at talking to other lions and observant. Generally, he or she is thought of as a low ranking hunter, warrior, or baby-sitter - not really important to the tribe, although he does end up running messages for the Leaders an awful lot.
Whom does he follow most: Being raised to the job, Peya is a big fan of tradition, so he has sympathy with the king's brother. He likes to know what he's supposed to be looking for, and when the pride changes, people change. He's trying to keep abreast of all the changes. . . but his job was a lot easier before it all went down.

Name: nessiaing
SOA Name: Kxamtxon’Tanhi
Meaning: Midnight star in Navi
Rank title: Record Keeper
Rank description: Kxam is in charge of keeping records for the pride. These records would include census, so the births and deaths of pride members, family lines, marriages ect. As well he keeps track of things like major historical events, so if the pride were to be attacked or suffer a famine he would record what happened, who was lost and all the details of the events.
Whom does he follow most: He follows the kings brother. As Kxam is all about tradition and surrounds himself with the records of the pride, he thrives on history and is all wrapped up in the old ways and the ways things have always been, a hazard of his job.

Name: Dulcea
SOA Name: Tuteo'narisi
Meaning: Navi, “Someone who watches out, is cautious”
Rank title: Tingnari “The Looker”
Rank description: Most of his days are spent circling the grounds and taking brief rest among the rest of the pride. Come nightfall when all others lay their heads to sleep he awakens, climbing up tree after tree to break the canopy and watch closely for any signs of approaching danger. He answers each morning to the Commanding Warrior, and will disclose no information about what he sees to anyone else for fear of causing undue stress.
Whom does he follow most: As one who sees much of the outside world in his own peculiar way, and spends quite a bit of time looking to the stars, Tuteo follows the current king, believing that some change may be good for the pride.

Name: Kathryn Dragonna
SOA Name: Txon'taw
Meaning: Na'vi- Night Sky
Rank title: (The title of his rank)
Rank description: Eywa Tsamsiyu - I would see him as a warrior that shadowed Eywa, not really for her protection as much for show. He would be there to assure those that do not like all the outsiders coming in, that no one is going to harm the goddess, either purposefully or out of ignorance. What he would actually do would be mostly be a companion to the goddess, since the likelihood of him needing to fight anyone around her would likely be never.
When concern about the new comers was raised at the return of Eywa to the people, Txon would have been hand-picked by Eywa herself to stand at her side as a companion, though she knows he is not necessary. He would have a closer relationship with the goddess for this, and see himself as more a friend than anything to her. He understands that he is not needed there, but it is an honor none the less.
Whom does he follow most: Eywa, period. Eywa favors the current king, so that is whom his clan loyalty goes to, but if Eywa's favor should fall away from the king, then so would Txon's loyalty to him. He does think that the new blood is a good thing and is happy to see the people thriving, though.

Name: Kay Thx
SOA Name: Mawey 'aw
Meaning: "Calm One"
Rank title: Tse'a Nì'aw Tìngay ("See Only Truth"); however, because the title is so long others would frequently shorten the title to just "Tingay" or "the Tingay".
Rank description: His rank is a new one. With the influx of outsiders, colors once foreign to the pride are beginning to crop up on outsiders seeking to join. Mawey'aw has always been notably gentle and level-headed. He currently has no drastic enemies, but if he did, even they would probably have to yield he's the kind you want to judge your trial, since in doing so he guarantees you a fair one.
Although abuse is not tolerated among those with colors that are 'looked down upon', Mawey'aw harbored much concern over bias causing them to judge newcomers too harshly or too quickly. He volunteered his services for this purpose, and willing sacrificed his sight in exchange.
The Tse'a Ni'aw Tingay was not born blind, but intentionally covers his eyes at all times so as to provide for the new king a means of completely unbiased judgment. He doesn't know what color anyone is, so his opinion is purely based on the actions and words of others. Since said opinion tends to be a respected one, his decisions follow suit.
Note that Mawey'aw would not develop some spidey sense that allowed him to live normally with his self-inflicted handicap, thus he would need some kind of aid in his work. Could be a permanent assistant of sorts or just various lions. In any case, he'd need some kind of help.
Whom does he follow most: Eytucan, the current king. But he remains (as usual) very sympathetic for his brother, and would try to maintain a good relationship with him. He wouldn't try to convince him the new way is best, but rather approach him with an I- understand-where-you're-coming-from-but-all-things-must-change attitude.
