Who I am applying for: Kitisho
Username of person RPing Kitisho: Phifer



Prompt: Kitisho goes out hunting; make up a story about what happens while he's out there.

~.: @ :.~

Orders. Commands. Demands. Obedience and Loyalty.Despite his daunting size and fierce appearance, he was a silent figure, speaking volumes with his lack of words. Upon the leader's whim, he had to go hunt in order to nourish the group if they hoped to survive long enough to see the end of their natural days. He was the strongest. He was the biggest. He was the best suited to hunt for the group. Kitisho made sure he killed a few prey in order to feed the leader, Msiba, his, in all honesty, creepy sister, Mchawi, the quiet Unyevu, and the glutton that is the leader's younger brother, Machafuko. At first, life was alright, it worked out for him; he got orders, he carried them out, and everyone was happy. ... That was until that earth shake that disrupted his whole way of life. The great valley opened up to them, and curious as they were, the group followed Msiba in. Shortly after, they found a battered group of lions and lionesses , and to Kitisho's dismay, he now had many mouths to feed as Msiba volunteered them as hunters. He was certain that if he continued to hunt as he was, the savanna will have no food left in a few moons' time.

Leaving the great valley and the Aka'mleli, as their pride was called, he headed out for a good place to hunt. A herd, that was what he had to find.

"...Ulinzi..." A voice, as deep as the ocean was endless and jagged as the valley they now resided in, called out to his avian companion, whom was resting behind his neck. When he did talk, it was deep and rough, a hint of a growl heard in each phrase. Since the vultures ruled the sky above the valley, the eagle had kept close to Kitisho. Then again, he had always been there to talk in his stead, he was usually right on about what the lion wanted to be spoken. And just like when it came to hunting, the two made a great pair. Ulinzi took to the sky to find herds and recall information whilst Kitisho used the information to their advantage.

The male martial eagle fanned his large appendages, immediately taking to the sky in moments with a loud caw. "Aye, Kit!" he called out. Looking down below to seek out a nearby herd, he could not help but pass a glimpse over his life long companion, and to many's surprise, guardian. He saw but the harsh life of a stoic lion, a body riddled in scars, big and strong to endure so much pain and suffering as he carried out his orders without question. He was the loyalest lion he knew, one who would now defend only upon the command of Msiba. As the lion's companion and dearest friend, he stood beside his decisions just as he carried out his commands fully. After all, if it were not for him, this lion would not have lived long. So much rage and anger... that was the one thing the massive lion could not fend off alone, that was this avian's job to contain it with words and reason.

"There, ahead. Slight after Noon, a herd of Kudu. Think you can take them?" The eagle echoed down. The lion smirked and rushed head on with a beastial roar; these where the only times he could release his inner turmoils, rage, anger...

My order are clear. Find food. Kill leader and most healthy of group. Return feed 'family'. Make second trip feed pride. Make third, allow Machafuko seconds... thirds... and fourth.... The warrior recalled. As big and strong as he was, that was all he was. Rarely did he talk, but one did not need to when his body did it for him. He had clear orders. With an open herd ahead, he simply had to choose the strongest and the best.

This world has changed since the earthquake. Many were injured. Many were lost. They have lost sight of themselves. They have lost sight of what was important. Distraction. Worry. Fear. Doubt. None of that mattered to him, he had his orders. He just had to carry them out.

Ger is the only cub born from Koho's daughter, Jahazara (owned by Tormented_Angie) with an NPC I created, Argoko.

Argoko and Kroga, his brother. Mated with an NPC Suzuko and born two sons, Kinari and Trig. After they were tricked into thinking Suzuko had died, Kroga had stolen Kinari away. Kroga died during his adolescence. Argoko raised Trig to be the knight in shining armor, the opposite of what Kinari is. Kinari is a very small lion where Trig is a mammoth in comparison. [[I mention this because Argoko is Ger's father]]

Suzuko was actually kidnapped by hyenas to trade a Firekin for their pups back. She was traded and used as his slave. During her heat, he caved and took her as his own. he sired a single cub from her, Moto'vianzio, but she died shortly after. After killing his father, he ran away and renamed himself Trigger.

Ger gets lost and is "adopted" by a leopard named Kujack. The two hit it off as a father-son pair (Ger never met his father) and they soon got hooked up with Aysha who mated and had the first Leopon hybrids of Soa and ger's "siblings".
Inoa'po, Hayate, Athena'Nike, Kohaku, & Kohji


Ger grew up and headed back home where he fell in love with Trinacria. They mated and had a cub, Ezekial. While Ger left to seek out his family, he had left his son in Ezeoha's care, his best friend but also the pimp/stud of the Pride Lands. As time progressed, Ezekiel grew into a lion of high regards of moral, teachings, and some flirtations. He fell in love with his childhood friend and the daughter of the new king and queen, Safuma. With her as his mate, he sired eight cubs:
Offspring(s):
Ahadi, Vitani, url=http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f397/PhiferWolf/ezsa1.png]Kamikiel,
Taalis, Leilusae, Eshe'Butannaziba, Kopa, & Tau. [Last on the Pride Lander lines as they were discontinued.]

Also, he had promises to a Goddess, Rhin'yi. Goddess of the Hunt. She asked him for "company" on her journeys as a Goddess and she had herself impregnated. With her, he sired six cubs: Edisa, Jibanza , Sinuhe , Narcissus , Eiji'dai, & Ro'Ery
[mind, it might be 7 and 7, but I got the images mixed up oxo]


Now:
Trig lives alone in a cove on the Ocean front, often visited by Ger, Ezekiel, and Taalis and Eiji'dai.
Moto'vianzio is the Lord of a Pride called Tianxia, he controls the military power. He deemed himself "Sheng Kou" by Pride laws. He has a litter of his own.
Kinari had been forced to become the Major of Moto'vianzio's House. He has his own litter that is now the group in the Outlands.
Ger roams about looking for his family but soon to head back.
Ezekiel lives in the Pride lands with his mate and most of his cubs. Those born from the Goddess travel with her.

Kijani'unyevu ~[Green Mist]~ Male Lion Cub
Kubwaga ~[Fallen]~ Female Martial Eagle

Quiet morning, just outside the pass into the Great Rift Valley, home of the Aka'mleli pride. Maybe it was stupid to leave the den to go off on his own-frankly, he did not care. He was tired of those grumpy, paranoid old farts. Today was his day ... at least this morning was going to be. Thoughts whirled in his mind of what the morning would hold for him. Maybe a stupid hare would fall under his paws or maybe he'll find another cub to boss around. Honestly, anything would be better than hanging out around here waiting for the other pride members to wake up.

Tiny paws touched the earthly grass, a rare sensation, it had been far too long since any of the babysitters let him and his sister out for a little play fighting where they didn't get hurt by rocks. The sky was a little clear with the exception of some remaining vultures that weren't killed off by Kitisho's avian. Not that he thought about it, everyone had featherbrained friends, even his father. Now that he thought about the idea... even his sister had one. So when does he get one? When could he get one to boss around? When does he get one to chase? With those thoughts and many others in his mind, a more important one came up; how does he get a bird companion?

The tiny, male cub walked a short distance to a nearby tree for some shade and a place to think.

"Maybe Dad gives it to me..." the pale-green cub murmured. But he didn't remember his sister getting one from him, so that couldn't be it. It was like she got that ground-pecker when he was sleeping or something. In truth, he forgot when she had that thing. Keeping himself active while he thought, he circled the tree quite a few times with soft growls emitting from his body unaware of his surroundings... at least that above him.

It's time! I'm gonna do it! The fledgling hopped silently away from the nest as its mother finished feeding the others and taking off for her own. Taking the opportunity of the maternal absence to try out her wings for her first time! Getting herself as far as she could go upon the branches of the acacia, she mentally prepared herself. Unaware of what was circling below the small avian, she began hopping and flapping. I can do it! I can do it! She closed her eyes tight, tighter than a lion's jaw on a prime kill. One f-for the wormy. T-two for the show. Three to get r-ready. And four to go! With her last mental preparation, she propelled herself into the air, flapping her wings frantically as hard as she could. However, her little hover didn't last her too long as she began to fall. Oh no! Oh no! the phrase continued in her mind as she continued to beat her tiny wings in a fail attempt to save herself from an impact she did not quite expect. It was not the rough ground she hit that would ultimately end her life but something equally as hard and yet not.


"Umf! WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA!?" The cub jerked around, snarling at the tiny ball of feathers behind him, rubbing his head where she had landed. The lion cub snapped his jaws to frighten her as he crouched low. Maybe it was not a bunny, but any snack and trophy to bring back to his father and hold over his sister was better than nothing. "Well, a little birdbrain like ya wouldn't live long anyways on the ground. Wanna know why?" Rhetorical question.

"Hmph! My name is Kubwaga, and futha mur you just got in my way uf flyin'" The martial eagle fledgling known as Kubwaga boldly got to her tiny, taloned feet and courageously pressed a feathered tip of her wing to the cub's nose. "A-and if you haf the nerve to attack me, my mum will swoop down 'ere 'n eat you up! I swear she will!"

The boldness in this little one was a surprise for a superior predator like a lion to see in such a small creature as this martial eagle. Though they were both young, he couldn't help but pull back a bit at her claims. He was not old enough to die yet! He was only a few months old and he was still drinking from his mother... "W-well, you should watch where you are flying, or rather, falling in your numb skull case. Besides, where do you get off telling me what to do? I'm an Aka'mlelian!"

"An... A-ka m-le-lian? Is tat even a word? My mum says that you lions haf birds everywhah. Is tat true?" She questioned, tucking her delicate feathers back to her side, her head tilted for an answer. "And gif me your name! I want your name! Gimme your name! NAME!"

"I-it's true, everyone has a bird... well, everyone but me..." The cub sighed as his eyes broke contact causing the bird to fluff and hop back into view. The thought of being the odd one out kinda made him feel insecure and somewhat as if he was not noticed by everyone else. Kitisho had his who worked together to hunt. Father had his. They all had one that did something. He was all in it all alone. Kubwaga's squawk snapped his attention back to her as she continued to peck at him for questions, almost literally. "My name's Kijani'unyevu, named after someone my father knew. Now will you stop that!"

"Kijani'unyevu? ... Too long! Too long! I call you Kij from now on!"

"But everyone calls me Kija-"

"KIJ! KIJ! KIJ!" Kubwaga squawked more, hopping up and down, flapping her wings as feathers began to flutter about around her.

"F-fine! Kij..." The cub surrendered. He didn't know it but it seemed his day was becoming more interesting than he had originally thought. There was going to be no snack for him. There was going to be no cub for him to boss around. There was no trophy to show off when he got back home.

Unfortunately, that was not the last he would see of the little female bird known as Kubwaga.

List of preference of cubs, most liked to least liked:
___Male Cub #2 - Ardhi'mwitu [Earthen Jungle]
___Female Cub #1 - Jio'umande [Evening Mist]
___Female Cub #4 - Abari'mbingu [Endless Sky]
___Male Cub #3 - Bakari'mabonde [Bovine Valley]
Anything about yourself you'd like us to know?
___I am in college, Freshman, first semester. All my classes end around 6pm EST (Mondays are at 9pm EST... fail). So I should be free there after. Throughout the day I do get in betweens but I may be multitasking RPing and Homework blaugh
Fuzzy Munchkins? YES PLEASE! If they are anything like kiwis they must be sweet.



PART ONE:

1. Who is the current Queen of the Mistweavers? - Masika, Maji's half-sister.
2. What is the real name of the pride? - Umande'mfuni
3. What happened to Ushaufu's parents? - Posca, Goddess of Decay, left her children to her mate because of her inability and fear of her powers around her cubs. However, the said father wasn't reliable as she had hoped. I am assuming, since I cannot quite find the information, that he had abandoned them. Varge is currently his father figure.
4. Do the cubs know that Ushu is a god? - Not until they are adults!
5. Which parent originated in the pride? - Kizuka was born into the lands before the plague. She did flee it during a Firekin invasion. When she did return, Ushaufu was already there. To the answer of the question; I do believe it would be Kizuka.



(( Another one of these? These are--like--the best 'prompts' ever! XD ))

PART TWO:How are Blueberries like Sports Cars? - Well, how would I say this? Blueberries and Sports Cars... Well, they both can be blue. Everyone loves them and wants them. They explode!!! They both can be crushed.

This one time, during a car show, I was drinking a blueberry smoothie I got from the mall, looking at all these old antique cars and some of those suped up ones you see in those movies. Fast and the Furious~ (come on, the actors suck, they are there for eye candy) Well, I tripped and spilt it onto this blue '89 sports car of sorts. Needless to say, we promptly left. But I don't think he noticed ;3





PART THREE:
Prompt Number Three
Cub You're using for the prompt: female Cub #1
Cub's name: Jio'umande, a name meaning 'Evening Mist'. When I first saw her, I immediately thought of the dark times, in this case, night, and the blue upon her water. Due to her wing-like markings, I pictured her flying through the air, leaving a trail of mist that would fall down below to the valley. Probably a dream she'll have later. But, it just seemed to fit, even more with her visions.
Personality:
1. Is very playful with the siblings and family.
2. A little bold but backs off when pressured (or "in your face"-ed)
3. Talks about Storm God a lot.
4. Visions occur during night and they are reversed of what they are meant for.
5. She will stay in land when older.
6. She will call Varg 'Grandpa'!
7. Treats Usha the same no matter, but she will ask questions.

Not-so-brief ->Jio'umande, at this age, she will be playful with her siblings and stick close to the family. She can get a little bold, but when another gets into her face and pressured, she will back down into a more submissive state. She will constantly be talking about the Storm God. During certain nights, she could be found walking around the den as if in a dream-like state, this is where she has her visions. However, she will realize later, that her visions are the opposite of what they are meant to tell--taking after her father's domain of deception. She will learn to not trust them, flip their meaning to discover what it is that she was seeing. Later in life, she plans to stay in the lands and tend to the family any way she can.
She'll be calling Varg 'Grandpa'. When she does find out Ush is a God, she will act no different, but if she knows there is a Goddess around whom her mother doesn't seem to like, she will do her best to dissuade her presence around Kizuka. This Goddess and Lioness do not get along! (He/She will be interchangeable dependent on the cub)

Prompt Answer:

Your parents have confronted you about your seer powers and what you think of them. Give us a post where the cub explains his or her experience with his powers and their own feelings towards them. You may slightly godmode the parents as listening or nodding along, etc, but don't take them over so completely as to put words in their mouths beyond an occassional "and..?" "go on," or "And how does that make you feel?" (or something along that line. If you're not sure something you want to do is appropriate you can always ask.)

A fortnight ago, the dead hours of the night. Remnants of the pride lingered in the jungle valley, the mist collecting around the floor, cooling them from the dreaded heat of the day. Soft pitter-patter of footsteps, slow and steady in rhythm, echoed in the darkness. A small female walked, eyes wide opened, blue eyes that seemed to glow like the azure waterfalls. She walked without a break in step. The mist weaved around her paws, brushing softly--like velvet-against her chest before flowing past her. The roar of laughter, the sounds of giggles, the sorrowful cries of sadness echoed so that not even the bellowing waterfalls could be heard but yet ... no one else could ever hear them.

- - - - -

"A seer?" A youthful cub spoke quietly, sitting quietly before her parents. She felt so tiny and confused, and yet felt sheltered and protected with her parents here and the fact that she must not be the only one. Hopefully, there were others out there in the valley whom she could commune with. She just did not want to be alone [in learning]. If what her parents said were true, then that would certainly explain the strange things that has been happening to her as of late. Jio'umande quickly turned her attention to her mother whom she believed would better understand her story.

"I-I've never quite told you about it, but lately I keep waking up outside the den at night..." she murmured quietly. "It was like a dream, like I was walking in the dark and all around my feet was mist, weaving around my paws like they always do when I am near the waterfalls. Then I hear voices and see myself do stuff that I've never done before. Then I would wake up outside! I-I just thought I was sleep walking. Is this what a seer is, father?"

The green male nodded as his mate spoke, "Are you afraid of it?"

It took a moment but the reply came with a nod. She was afraid, however, she was confused most of all. She didn't understand it and if this was her, she was going to keep doing this, wasn't she? Jio looked up at her mother and father before sighing, "For Storm God's sake, will any of this make sense to me!?"

Neither replied but they did give her a look.

The female gave a nervous laugh to lessen any scolding she might get or whatever reason and tried to change the subject. "I wonder if the others know about this..." the cub murmured to herself, giving a sideward glance to her parents before smiling. "Know what? I think I'm gonna go find Grandpa Varg or someone to play with for a while. Um, I promise I won't tell anyone!"

Anything else: This guy is the concept of a God of Misfortune in another shop. So ignore the wings and other objects that would conflict with Ressurection Wolve's rules. I would like some idea for this guy to enjoy him until the time comes he is real.
