Name: Kuzaliwa
Nickname: Kuza
Age: 1 year and 1 month(?)
Gender: Female
Pride: Kisasi
Rank: Heir
Desired Rank: Hunter. (Queen - after her sister)
Appearance: This girl will wind up standing at 3.5 feet in height. She will be slightly taller than long, like her mother. Her weight, being well-muscled will wind up at about 340 pounds. However, as she is only just over a year old now, she hasn't quite filled in or grown to her full height.
Her pelt is the pale cream of her father, something to match him. Though her's is a bit cooler than his, with some rosier hues to it. She is self-conscious of her coat and isn't that grateful for it, though she doesn't often voice her thoughts.
She is a lovely creature, with thick, glossy fur from a decent diet, and fringes here and there that stick out awkwardly because she hasn't quite grown into her own body.

Personality:
- Obedient and Rebellious, depending on her mood - Bold - Blunt - Outspoken - Confident - Affectionate and Caring - Playful and Teasing - Responsible - Intelligent - Realist -
This girl might be described as both obedient and rebellious. As strange as this might seem at first, it depends entirely on her mood. Sometimes, she's in the mood to earn her pride members' good graces, and so she behaves herself even when she might long to go against the grain. Sometimes, she doesn't bother to behave herself and will attempt to find ways around the rules she's given.
Kuza is rather bold most the time. Sometimes, she will be a bit curious, and will be the first to try out a new thing or explore areas that are new to her. She will almost always voice her opinion on matters, although she might find the self control to hold back her words if it isn't her place. Part of this boldness is how blunt she is. She will not sugar coat a thing. She might put something as gently as possible without diluting her words or making it seem better than it is. She'll give it to you how it is.
As one might assume, this female is very confident. She has no problem telling others her thoughts and beliefs, even when she knows they'll probably disagree. She doesn't mean anything in a rude or cocky way, she simply doesn't see anything wrong with being loud and upfront. She is a realist, however. She doesn't focus on the positives or the negatives, she just sees the entire picture.
This lioness is extremely caring and affectionate. She enjoys snuggling with anybody and everybody, whether she knows them particularly well or not. She is especially affectionate towards her sister, but will also act maternally towards those who seem down.
This female is also very teasing and playful, especially with a male that she might be interested in. She loves to play fight, tease, and can even be a bit flirtatious. Although, she is very in control of her actions and will immediately settle down in a serious situation.
This female is intelligent and responsible, traits she was both born with and raised to be. She can take control of a situation when needed with ease, keeping a calm, collected, level head. As some would say, she's got a good head on her shoulders.

Name: Tafsiri [Tawf - See - ree]
Nickname: Taf
Age: 6
Gender: Male
Pride: Kufanikiwa
Rank: King
Desired Rank: Achieved
Appearance:
This male, like most, has a strong build. However, his is slightly lankier than your average male, giving him a boost in speed and agility compared to the others, which he uses to his advantage. This slightly lankier look also gives him a boost in the sense that his enemies quite often underestimate his abilities and strength. Sure, he's not the strongest, but his other talents more than make up for this fact.
His healthy and full coat is also rather pale compared to most males'. It isn't creamy, but it has a more beige tone to it than a golden tan. This is a fact that he appreciates, however, enjoying the slightly unique appearance it gives him. He can blend in a little better with the pale yellow surroundings, as well, something to help him along.
He stands at around 3'9" and weighs about 400 pounds due to his unusually lithe build. From nose to base of his tail, he is just under 6' long.
Many scars mar the coat of this male, with many fights being held proudly under his belt. With his position, many fights are inevitable.
He carries a thick and healthy mane, also slightly paler compared to most other lions, but just as impressive nonetheless if not more so.
Complimenting his coat, he sports greenish-golden eyes. This shade is quite common, but his pale coloring makes it appear a bit more striking than in some others. An intelligent gleam can always be seen in these eyes, as well, and they constantly rove, observant.
(c) Melyssah6-Stock @ DA - Both
Personality:
- Wise - Loyal and Loving - Calm and Gentle around those he knows - Territorial - Compassionate and Driven - Observant - Authoritative - Paternal -
As one might assume based on his ranking within the pride, this male is wise. Perhaps he isn't an old oracle with hundreds of years of wisdom type wise, but he offers advice where he can, and he likes to believe he has good judgment and could make good decisions for the pride if called upon to do so.
This male is very loving and extremely loyal. Once one has his loyalty, it is theirs, and will remain unwavering until he is at his grave. It would take a truly terrifying revelation to do with the one he pledged his loyalty to in order to cause him to question it. He cares deeply for all those in his family and in the pride, which he considers to simply be an extension of his family.
When he is around those he knows, he is calm and gentle. He might be capable of violent actions towards those around him, but he would hardly dream of using his physical ability against anyone in the pride. Not only would he be upset that a pride member was harmed, but he would be horrified that he was the one to have caused such a terrible event.
This male is very territorial. It's pretty much in his job description to be defensive around anything dangerous or possible threats. He will protect his loved ones until the day he dies. This being said, he is also authoritative when it is being asked of him. He can order around those below him with a kind but gentle mannerism and tone. He is also rather observant. Constantly watching the happenings within the pride and keeping a lookout for danger.
Lastly, Taf is compassionate, driven, and paternal. He will carry through with anything that he believes is important. His feeling for the pride as a whole is a paternal one, but also the individuals within. He is always willing to risk life and limb to save those he cares for.
Crush: Ashanti, the love of his life
Mate: The Queen, Ashanti
Cubs: Akili
Kin:
Akili - Daughter/Heir; alive
Open to brother (mentioned in backstory)
Affiliations: TBD
Ashanti - This gorgeous lioness, the queen, whom he was lucky enough to earn the love of, is his mate. He greatly enjoys advising her in her decisions, and trusts and backs her choices without wavering. He knows that she puts the pride before herself, and understands that she is wiser than he is in many ways.
Akili - Oh, Akili. The lovely lioness that he fathered and loves with every fiber of his being. Of course, he feels protective of his daughter, but doesn't hover. In many ways, he still looks at her as if she is his cub toddling around his paws still, but he knows - consciously, at least - that she is grown and capable of caring for herself.
Backstory: This lion was actually a loner, wandering with his brother, for most of his life. It was when he was about 4 that he found the pride. He was a bit young to be a king, but had fallen in love with the queen from the moment he spotted her, not knowing her position the first moments they met. His brother joined the pride shortly after and is now a warrior. (His brother can either be a background NPC, or he could be played, just PM me.)
