Xant
The Zirez Tribe

Xant smacked his lips. Ahh, bugs...The thought of the crunchy, delicious flavor rolling around on his tongue made Xant's fur stick on end. "When do you plan on leaving?" He asked Poison. Xant wanted to make sure that none of the birds attack while they were foraging; that was his job as a Sentry, after all. He gritted his teeth, and promised himself a good beating to the head if he fell asleep during his watch; he couldn't bare to live with himself if one of his Tribe members died while he was snoozing. His little bobbed tail swung back and forth, allowing his eagerness for food be shown. His empty stomach was hungry, Xant hadn't risked finding food with the predators so close. With that thought, Xant let a stray eye look up. He could of sworn he could see the soft gleam of the light hitting one of the birds sharp talons. His ears twitched. I'm watching, you, bird.

Rank: Sentry and Instructor (she is skilled in both tasks and so was given both these jobs)
Mob: The Flamez
History: no ones shirr where she came from. But she is now a member of this mob.
Crush: none
Mate: none
Personality: Strong and cold, she keeps to herself and is very commanding. She respects her leaders and elders and would never dream of making them angry. She is loyal and nerve self centered, if there are pups around, she gives her food to Inu so they will not go hungry. She is a reliable sentry and Instructor.
Fears: She fears that there will be not enough food to go around and that the water will dry up. That is her biggest fear and worry.
Weaknesses: she over heats quickly

Roleplay sample: The day was hot and the nights were cold. This wasn't much of a problem for Ezra, but it was getting to the rest of the flames. The hot days were wonderful for them and the nights bitter. Food was scarce, there was hardly enough for all of them, a lot of them went hungry. But there leader Inu, was hopeful. And if the leader thought so, who was she to judge? But still, after the leaders mate died because of the ex-stream weather, everyone was getting depressed. No new pups meant that the future of The Flames was at stake. Even though no one said it, they were hoping for..well anything...they would take anything at this point.

Roleplay sample: Fox was roving the territory around The Flames foraging party. It was a nice sized group, it reminded him of his home... but he couldn't go back there, no, never. He sighed, everything these days reminded him of home, even some of the other meerkats! He sighed again, if he ever got into a group again, he would need to do some serious sucking up to the boss and her mate. He snorted, he was about as good at that as he was at breathing under water for 5 minutes. "Right? See me problem" he thought bitterly. He couldn't even remember what he left for...

[|Draft|]

Poison glanced over at the horizon, where the good foraging grounds were, then back at Xant. "In only a few minutes. I just need you to get Bill; he's a nice kat, but sometimes a little scatterbrained. Llira will stay here, of course. It is her duty." Little did Xant know, Poison had not given Llira her job as pupsitter just because she was good with pups. No, she had given her the job to keep her away from roving males, the filthy little demons. If Llira got pregnant, her whole plan was ruined!


Llira, meanwhile, sat in the burrows, lonely. She barely ever even got to see the sun anymore; Poison kept her underground, working on burrows and fixing nests until pups came. Llira knew it was for her own good-- at least, that's what Poison told her. But she felt so alone, so empty sometimes.....All she wanted was to see the sun, go outside...She sighed as she walked down a tunnel towards the surface to see what the others were doing.

Xant
The Zirez Tribe

Xant nodded at Poison. "M'kay. I'll go get Will." He turned around, and a little splash of sand covered his paws. Making his way to the burrow, Xant found Will. "Will!" He called, getting a bit of sand in his mouth. Running closer, he lowered his voice to normal sound. "Poison and everyone else are going to hunt for bugs, and Poison needs you to come. We are leaving in a few minutes." Xant said. "Come on." He turned to go over to Poison again, but his eyes landed on the pup's burrow. 'I wonder when Poison will have pups.' He thought to himself.

[|Draft|]

Posion looked Xant over carefully. He was strong, that was for sure, and certainly loyal. He may make a good father for her pups-- but if she mated with him, it would not be for love. Strictly for heirs, heirs which she so badly needed. Yawning, she jumped off of the rock she was sitting on. "Come, Xant; we'll go without him. We can't afford to waste more time; especially now, with the Flamez being their normal, arrogant, foolish selves."

[Inudog]

((All accepted, @ash berry- you can't have two ranks, so since skye isn't active i'll add her as an instructor, NOTE TO ALL: the flamez needs more males, the Zirez needs more females x.x))

Inu continued foraging, looking up every once in a while to check if there was any danger, but nothing. Inu sniffed around, lucky to find a small ant hill, of couse ants were emergengy rations, but no food, was an emergency. Suddenlt her eyes drifted towards Lobo, he was a nice meerkat, Inu snapped back into reality and scratched at the ground, a few ants came out and she ate a few of them, but her mind was set else were.. She knew she needed to havepups soon, or the Flamez would die out.

Will smiled as he appeared from the den once more, he immediatly followed the leader, Poison, and sniffed the ground seaching for food.

Flamez

Lobo looked up at the sky and saw that the hawks are oddly flying nearer, he chattered alarming the mob, they needed to get to a bolt hole and fast.

[|Draft|]

Poison gave a yip to call the mob together, and then started off. In only a few moments, they were at the Zirez' foraging grounds. Poison sniffed the ground. Not finding anything, she looked up and scanned the sky for predators. Satisfied that none were near, she searched again. She found a scorpion a few inches below the earth's surface, and snatched it up, forcing it down her throat. She licked her lips, satisfied.

Llira, bored and curious, quietly scurried up a tunnel to the surface. She sighed and closed her eyes as the sun's rays hit her face, and as the breeze played with her fur. Opening her bright amber eyes, she looked around. She saw no predators, so she ventured out a little further to sit.

[SilverLining]

Flamez
Rue dashed to the nearest bolt hole, hearing the alram. Standing to the side to let other meerkats pass she poked her head out and froze, staring intently at the hawks before shaking her head and turning away.
