Lions
Name;
Leto."My father named me Leto after his brother, who he had lost to illness just a few days before my arrival. I'm not sure what it means, if anything, or where it comes from, but I am proud to be named after my fathers' sibling and closest friend."
Nickname;
None."I'd prefer it if you didn't come up with a nickname for me. Leto is short enough and it's my name, it doesn't need to be changed."
Age;
Five and a half years young."It's been a while since I was asked to think about my age. I'm glad I can still remember, though it doesn't mean much to me. It's just a number that states how long I have been walking this planet, what does it matter?"
------------------------
Short Description;
White coat, pale eyes, muscular frame."Are you blind, you just far too curious? Very well... I have a soft, snowy white coat. It is normally always clean, for I hate when when it weighted down with muck. My mane is soft and fluffy, and of course is also a pale white. I have stormy gray eyes, and a muscular frame."
Personality;
Quiet, thoughtful, wise, kind, brave."Now you ask me to describe myself? What will be next, I wonder. Fine. I am quiet for one, very much so. No not shy, just quiet. I tend to keep out of conversations and speak little when I am drawn into them. I won't lie, though, when I am angered by one's words I will argue as I see fit. I suppose you could say I am thoughtful, as well. I always carefully mull over every possible response before I pick the right one. Well not necessarily the 'right one' - more like the one that corresponds with my emotions at that given time. Intelligent? More so than others I've had the displeasure of knowing. I have the wit to know when enough if enough, when to walk away and when to back down. I know right from wrong, when to stay silent and when to speak up. I know to watch my back and to place my trust carefully. Simple things that many lions I have met do not understand, which keep me out of trouble. I can be kind. If I want to. Don't get me wrong, I'm not an all-out silent, brooding type. I can be fun and adventurous, kind and gentle. I can even come up with a few good on-the-spot jokes, I have just yet to meet any lion who I like enough to put the effort into being joyful for."
History;
Average."I was born into a small pride. I was just my father, mother, three other lionesses and my litter. I believe the other lionesses had cubs as well, but I never saw them, just heard about them. I had a normal cub hood, I lived away from the pried for the first month or two with my mother and two sisters. Once we were old enough, mother introduced us to our father and the rest of the pride. Standard, nothing special. Though while I was growing up I did become very close to my father, and by the time I left we were good friends. Often times I would go back to visit him, until one day I got there and found he had been chased out by a younger lion. I didn't think much of it, he was getting old. Never saw him again, though, I didn't ever care to try and find him. I left my pride at about two years, when most males do. I have been on my own since then, I had a couple of lionesses here and there but we never stayed together."

I met them once when I visited my father."

Age;

------------------------
Short Description;
Average coat, amber eyes, muscular build."Oh I see, you just want to hear all about me don't you? Hm... Alright, I have an average tanish brown coat with a lighter underside. My mane is thick and soft, and mostly black. It is only a little brown, closest to my head. I have bright amber eyes and a muscular frame."
Personality;
Kind, flirty, brave, protective, cautious, honest."Me? Flirty. Don't get me wrong, I can be gentle and kind towards lionesses as well, but it's just so fun to see what some come up with when I start flirting with them. Despite this, would face any foe to protect a lionesses in harms way. Well, scratch that. I would face any foe to protect a lioness who asked me too, no matter her reason. I understand what it's like to be frightened, to want to get away, so should I encounter a lioness in this position of course I would do anything I can help. But around other lions I am very cautious. I've encountered many in my time, so I know that they are likely to lash out and attack other males. Especially other males they don't know. Trust me, I have my battle scars to prove I know they aren't to be messed with. Though I'm one to talk, for I would pick a fight if a lion made me uneasy enough. I'm very honest, lastly. Should you want to know anything, just ask, and I will tell."
History;
Average."I was born in a small pride, but even so my father didn't pay much attention to my litter. It was me and three sisters. I had a brother, but he died shortly after birth.Two of my sisters died later, as well. We were about a months old and mother had gone out to hunt, leaving us in the den. We decided to play outside, and a group of Hyenas came around. They circled around and picked up my two smaller sisters, Naomi and Amira, and ran off. One tried to grab Solstice as well, but I nicked the thing on the nose and he went running. So me and her hid in the den until mother got back, but she wasn't angry with us. She was sad, but relieve that at least us two made it. We moved a lot more after that. We were introduced to the pride when we were about three months, and had a normal life from there on. I let the pride when I was two years old, but Solstice stayed. Ever since then I've been on my own."

Name;
Missy"My mother named me Missy because when I was younger I would get into all sorts of trouble.

Personality;
Kind, light-hearted, laid back, sweet, loyal, protective, feisty."Me? Well.. I've been told I'm kind. I like to be around other lionesses, though lions make me uneasy sometimes. Just because in my past I've had some non-too-gentle encounters with them. I have a light spirit, I know that much. I am light-hearted and always calm. Well.. almost always. I love to make jokes and keep the overall energy of those around me up. I hate it when others are feeling down, and will go out of my way to do what ever they could wish of me to help cheer them up. I'm always ready to help a friend as well, no matter the task. Well... Unless it's something really awful. I am loyal to my Lion, once I find one who makes me comfortable and not uneasy. Once I find this said lion, I will always be with him. I am eager to join a pride, just a bit nervous at the idea."
History;
Average."I was born into a small pride. It was just my father, five or six lionesses, and their cubs. In total there were about... Eight cubs, no seven. Yeah, seven that sounds right. Me and my sister were the oldest cubs in the pride at that time. Our father was of course Zervan, our mother Piuma. Father was always talking about out big brother Leto to us, and one day he came by to see us. He was three or so, and he wanted to see how his father was doing since they had been so close when he was a cub. He stayed for a couple days, and my and Aella followed him everywhere. I miss him. But anyway, what was I talking about? Huh. Well anyway me and Aella left the pride together when we were about one and half, then went your separate ways a few months later. I've been on my own since, looking for a pride. Of course there was those two males... But I'd rather not talk about, not now anyway."

Personality;
Quiet, kind, cautious, justified, thoughtful."I'm very much like my older brother, Leto, just a bit more friendly. I'm quiet, for one. I normally stay out of the crowd and keep to myself during conversations. I am very cautious though, and I never place my trust in anyone who hasn't earned it. I'm friendly towards almost everyone, but I trust very few others. I'm very thoughtful, and I normally mull over things for a while before making a decision o make sure I get good results. I'm very calm, if you couldn't tell. It takes a lot to get me angry or excited, and I am normally the one to smooth ruffled pelts when things get heated."

I've been told I'm a bit naive, but I can't help it. I place my trust in the wrong lions sometimes, and I end up paying for it. But I can't help who I am, maybe one day I will learn better. Don't get me wrong though, I can stand up for myself. I'm not scared to fight or start an argument. I will stand up for myself and what I believe is right, and do my best to protect those close to me."
History;
Average, a little on the sad side."I was born in a rather large pride. There was thirteen or more lionesses, six or seven adolescents, a hoard of cubs that could have made up their own pride, and of course my father and his brother. My father didn't have a queen, he just treated his brother as his second and they controlled the pride together, rather. Since there were so many of us, only a few ever got attention from my father. In my litter there were five cubs, me, my sister and three brothers. We only met our father once, and I learned a few months after were born that it was actually the pride males brother who was our father. The pride male, Fenris, was furious. His brother hadn't asked him to mate with my mother, and that was the rule. He was an equal in the pride but he had to have permission to mate any lionesses. Fenris lashed out at him and kicked him out before rounding on my siblings. He killed two of my brothers, Nunak and Varric, and my sister Aveline. My mother turned on him before he could harm me or Sebsatian, though she hadn't gotten back in time to save the others. Instead of killing was all he sent my mother away, us with her. We lived on our own for a while, but life was hard for my mother. She was never the best hunter. Me and my brother were about a year old when she died of fatigue, and we stuck together for a while. But he too left me, he saw a chance to get his own pride and was saying his good-byes in the next moment. I've been alone since."
