The *ahem* happy couple have produced their second litter, and one boy needs a home!

his uncerted image

All you need to do to enter is give him a name, it's meaning, and a personality. No prompts to reply or anything. I want to see who's interested in Tianxia, moreso than if you rp well.

Please note:
-- He will never leave Tianxia. It would bring great dishonor to his House, as he is part of the royals of the West. The only exception would be if he was betrothed to a royal in another pride, for alliance reasons.
-- He may, however, change Houses, only if his mate is of another House's royal couple. Otherwise he would outrank everyone in the other houses.
-- For their pride (Chinese) names, every member of this family carries a family name. Zhong, meaning loyalty. Please keep this in mind when choosing names.

If you have any questions, just post them.




[b]Common Name:[/b] ([i]meaning[/i])
[b]Tianxia Name:[/b] ([i]meaning[/i])
[b]Personality:[/b]


If you'd like to see a little of the family's personality, feel free to check out these two roleplays:
Roleplay 1, Roleplay 2
The current situation in the West: Ria, the Heiress, has left the lands with the royal guard Akasha to inspect a prospective mate within the Mwezi'Johari. The relationship between Zahi and Mio has warmed again, after much internal debate between the two. Ria will return with her mate not too terribly long after the cubs are born. The dynamic of having a consort for Ria may heighten tensions, as Zahi is not ready to hand over his 'throne' just yet (and he won't, for a while).


This is slated to end in around 24 hours, 7pm PDT on August the 13th, but it may be extended.

((Hope this is open! I love this family! XD))

Common Name: Ma-que (Sparrow)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Feisheng (Soaring Loyalty)
Personality: He's flighty, and a bit head-in-the-clouds, but he has a good and loving heart. He'll probably be scolded a few times for daydreaming and goofing off, but he does try so hard to make his parents proud. The only problem is that in his imagination he can do all kinds of great things to earn his parents' love and praise (especially his father; he would give up his life to make him proud) but in reality...he's just a little cub who isn't that good at anything yet.

Common Name: Feng (the point of a weapon)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Wei (loyalty of the hero)
Personality: He has inherited his father's often crude nature, and little of his mother's sensitivity. His aspirations lie with the Royal Guard, ignoring the implications of spending so much time with those of a lower class. He is tactful when necessary, but more often treats the world with a sort of disenchanted bile. Loss will turn him bitter and violent, a potential horror to any prospective mate. The only obvious love he will show is for his sisters, tempering his word and directing his ire to those that might oppose them. This love is tied greatly into their willingness to stand strong on an issue. Should he witness an act of great weakness, his mind will turn. As an adult he may hit a breaking point, with another being forced to kill him.

Common Name: Kugesi (anklet)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Qiu (autumn loyalty)
Personality: Qiu is a curious lion. His life will be a quest for knowledge, starting with small trifling things as a cub to the bigger questions as an adult. He's very interested in the history of his pride, though his interest won't peak until he's a little older. At first, it's more about the stories. Later on, it will be more about the information in the stories. Aside from his passion, he will be a quieter member of the family, and avoid conflict (which can be good and bad).

<3 (autumn was for the west house. i figure you can figure it out, i just wanted you to know i wasn't being weird with the name picking x))

Common Name: Zhi (wisdom/ healing)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Jie (Pure loyalty)
Personality: Despite his common name's meaning, this little cub is anything but wise. He is prone to making foolish decisions, making a clutz out of himself, and generally embarrassing his entire family when he's allowed into the public eye. Despite this, he is a cheerful and outgoing little fellow, who is eager to please his family and find a spot worthy to earn him respect for what he can do, not just his birth rank. He tends to stutter when he gets nervous or when he lies, but he works to try and hide it, and when he gets older it may fade away completely. His favorite phrase is the word "Oops" since he says it so much, and often makes people wonder if he truly is of the Zhong line because of his frankly quite silly personality.

Common Name: Shwari (Peace)
Tianxia Name: Zhōng Sháo (Harmonious Loyalty)
Personality: To say Shwari is a smooth talker is a bit of an understatement. He is a master at weaving words, and somehow intuitively knows just what to say to smooth down the tension in any situation. While not a seasoned diplomat, he has all the makings of becoming a great one in the future. He is calm and level-headed, and has not raised his voice once in his young life. While he is more than willing to uphold his duty to the West House, he isn't afraid to speak up if he is asked to do something he thinks would not be beneficial for them. Of course, that isn't to say he's insubordinate... He's just more than willing to offer his opinion on things, whether it's asked for or not.

Common Name: Mkimya (Silent Person)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Manchu (Pure Loyalty)
Personality: Silent and strong, he does not feel the need to speak unless absolutely necessary (or unless spoken to by his mother or father). He feels that an effective leader doesn't have a need for words and that their actions are the only insight to their character in which one needs. In this self imposed silence, he uses his quiet demeanor to make others feel comfortable around him and study them, taking in their words and their actions in order to calculate and figure their weaknesses. To know thy enemy is to watch thy enemy. He is not above making friends just to ruin them.

Possessive by nature, he does not like to lose what's his. If he has to fight in order to keep a title or woman as he own, he will do so, or die trying. Because of this possessiveness, any mate he attains will live a very sheltered life, only being able to socialize with other women and close male relatives (IE brothers and father). He believes women are naturally born seducers and if not kept under a heavy paw, they will stray from their mates and bring dishonor and chaos.

He follows his father's orders to a 'T' and does not question his judgement in the least, even if it were for self preservatory purposes. He believes that if he honors his father and does as he asks, he will be honored back and will have his alliance and power at his disposal in the future (to say, get someone else's mate? hmnn 83?).

Common Name: Qiē wàng (Eager)
Tianxia Name: Zhōng Jiāo ào(Arrogant Loyalty)
Personality: The only one Qiē is eager to please is his father. Everyone else seems to be a waste of his time and efforts. He comes off as conceited or arrogant, but deeper down their is a sensitive side waiting to be found. He is mostly quite, but if he has an opinion it is sure to be heard. His ambitions are high and he will do anything and everything to impress his father. Qiē would keep to himself, but if he thinks someone would dare bring dishonor to the house he would be on top of it in no time, rather it was his business to or not.

Common Name: Nyoni'dogo (Little Bird)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Liáo (Fierce Loyalty)
Personality: Liáo is a rather delicate little cub - he's not the strongest of warriors, nor is he the fiercest of fighters. Liáo is easily upset, and even a small trip can send him spiralling into tears. He has a slight stutter, which he'll grow out of as he ages, but even so it all puts together for a rather pathetic seeming cub. Its not true to say that Liáo is very intelligent, either - he's about average in regards to his knowledge, though he is a very observant cub. He's very attentive, and quite enjoys cleaning, leading him to seem more like a maid than a member of the Royal Family of the West House of Tianxia.

Common Name: (Azubuike "The past is your strength")
Tianxia Name: (Wen Ru ( 文 儒 ) "Culture Scholar")
Personality:
Where the cub is far from the athletic sort, he devotes his time to learning what he can. He's fascinated by history, culture, and the behavior of the individuals around him. He loves figuring anything and everything out, coming to his own conjectures and conclusions based on his observations. He can come off as a bit of a snob, appreciating the finer things in life while completely avoiding anything that would get his paws dirty. He's thoughtful and private concerning his deeper feelings and musings but quick to toss in a sharp remark or two.

Common Name: Kuaizu (Quick-Footed)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Wanghou (Princely Loyalty)
Personality: In his heart, Kuaizu rejects responsibility and a large part of him hopes that his father will step in and make decisions for him, like who he will marry and what he will do with himself. Left to his own devices, Kuaizu would rather be a warrior than a prince. He finds peace and harmony in the drill and exertion of fighting and training to fight that he cannot find anywhere else. The political nature of the Tianxia court gives him a headache, and he prefers to stay out of the public eye, training instead as a warrior. He knows, of course, that he cannot follow the path of the warrior, but he likes to pretend that he can live that peaceful life. At least his siblings know he will never purposefully try to usurp their position.

Common Name: Guotin (polite, firm; strong leader)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Liu (Flowing Loyalty)
Personality: Taken to his heart, he's very odd. He understands that his father is the "king", and he, himself, is a prince. Though he doesn't like it all the time, he's come to an understanding with himself, that even though he's a prince, it doesn't mean he can't do things that the others are doing. He's very responsible for his actions, he owns up to anything, and doesn't blame others. He's very considerate of how other people feel, and he doesn't tease other people. Throwing fits is not something he does. Instead, he likes to think of tactical ways to get inside the mind of someone else, and mess with them, to the point of where they do what he wants. He doesn't do it often, as he respects the personal well being of the other individual's personal space.

Common Name: Qiang (Strength)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Chao(Surpassed Loyalty)
Personality: Qiang is a serious little cub. He's always wanted to be the best son that he can be, and lives his life to only be better. He always sides with his father (whether his father is right or wrong) and idolizes him. He's proud of his hertiage and family, and depends on the 'facts' they've given him. He's quick to anger if someone insults his family (mostly his father) and is easily used because of that fact. He's dependable, predictable, and above all else, loyal.

Common Name: Huang (Bright)
Tianxia Name: Zhong Gang (Strong Loyalty)
Personality: Huang thinks of himself as a friend to all living creatures. He enjoys playing with his siblings and remembering that he's a royal cub. He tries his hardest to please his father and his mother. He wishes to never do wrong to others or anyone close to him. Sometimes getting into trouble, but will apologize and remember to never do it again.
