We are now OFFICIAL! This will continue to serve as our plot thread, if people are keen to find pride plots, or anyone wants to engage with the pride as a whole.
 

[Velveteen Angel]

. . . About

Essentially a pride of Seers training to use their gifts, or at least learning to live with them.

All species and ages are welcomed.

There is no requirement to stay within the walls only - rogues are welcomed, and pride members travelling is also welcomed.


**NOTE: ALL members of the pride start at 'Seer' sub-rank. This is not a low rank, it is the default rank. All rank risings must be done via the RP system. C:
This is to make it fair to everyone and also encourage plots with the seers!
If you don't want to RP them, then they will simply stay at the Seer rank.

Even myself, owning an intended Oracle, must RP her up to take this rank.
*There will be special ranks given away only in meta events.

. . . History


The pride formed long ago, when the gift of sight (seers) was new. They had been shunned, afraid & looking for sanctuary. Mimi'naona became a place of refuge.

The pride has under-gone many changes, many shifts in power and many hardships - both expected and unexpected. The gift of sight doesn't save you from everything, after all.


Currently: Numbers are dwindling, very few original members remain. Most have left on their own journeys. The current leader is growing nervous, desperately seeking new seers to teach and guide.

• Each RP in which a Seer uses their ability counts as 1 point. Each rank has a required point count to achieve it. Each non-ability RP also counts as 1 point.
  
  
• RPs can be done in the rogue or pride lands.
  
  
• At least half of the RP requirements must be filled by ability-RPs, whereas the others can be filled by normal RP.
  
  
• For ease of management, all RPs must be also meet breeding requirements in terms of length. (It does not matter if they are SRP or PRPs; or that they have been used in breedings. They must simply meet the requirements.)

. . . Beliefs

• Seers
  The entire colony is built around seers and the importance of visions; however this is not faultless. There is a bias against non-seers. The production of seers is a blessing, whereas the non-seer cubs are not celebrated (they are not hated either, they are just not seen as a gift like seers). As such, the mating with gods or goddesses are HIGHLY regarded. Those who are known offspring of gods will be held in a higher regard than those who are mortal born.
  
  There may also be fake seers in the pride - pretending to have visions in order to gain favor. They may live forever like that, or be found out as frauds (OOC knowledge that a seer is fake should not reflect in IC without reason.)
  
  
• Species
  All species are accepted.
  
  
• Ranks
  All members are expected to pull their own weight. They all take equal share in the hunting, protection of the pride, and the other duties.
  All families are expected to raise their own cubs.
  
  
• Seer Ability
  While this pride is based around the strengthening of seer ability, please remember the shop rules of seers and abide by them. A seer is not a god, and their only power should be their vision.
  Shop rules here.
  
  
• Training
  While some Seers may believe that they can 'teach' having visions, the majority of the training given to those in the pride will be mental based training (meditation, relaxation, mentally preparing for the possibility of having a vision), support during/after a vision and also assistance in attempted deciphering of the messages in the vision.
  
  xxxxx"Keep in mind that seer abilities are highly unpredictable and different in every lion. There would be a real limit on how much training would actually do for anyone." Mkodi
  
  
  
• Other Prides
  As a pride of seers, they have a close relationship with other prides. Often they are sought out to give visions or advice from strangers, or for other pride leaders. They take these requests seriously and see it as a way to expand their alliances with other prides. Any requests for visions/advice are taken very seriously by the leaders.
  
  They have also been known to send Ambassadors to other prides to act as advisers to that pride.

Whoops! Added in a simple form now c:  

[Bronze Coffee]

I see the light~
Name: Tamno Srca
Image: Here
History: I don't know too much about him, honestly. o no

Seer Ability: He gets sick when he has visions. Horrible migraines that leave him helpless. It's a jumble of images, flashes of the future that make no sense. He doesn't know what he is, he's had no one to explain it to him.

I see the light~
Name: Yahriel
Image: Here
History: She grew up in the rogue lands with her mom. Her dad is a god!

Seer Ability: She knows she's a seer, and she has visions of the past, but only about others she's already met.
