The Mama (Painted Moose)
Scheherazade was raised in a pride that kept subservient females, with those not of lion blood even further below. Despite this she was never treated differently among her own family and even fell in love with a sweet lion. When he left, however, she found herself fleeing her homelands in favor of rogue life. There she found a cheetah who sired her first litter, ultimate leading her pregnant self to the colony. Throughout the years she has retained a rather aloof, if not oddly blunt attitude that leads her to spend hours upon end simply staring into the night sky. She may be head over heels for Hu, but you won't ever hear her say it.
The Papa (Velveteen Angel)
Hu is a serious individual, he takes his job as council member very seriously. He is not one for affection either. He'll never really be the type to cuddle with his cubs, but he does care for them. He just cares in a more 'distant' manner of love. Don't get him wrong, he still adores them, he will just teach them rather than coddle them.
The Granddaddy (Velveteen Angel)
Obadias raised Scheherazade as his own when his banu, Mihika, gave birth to a litter of fullblood leopards. He never once treated them differently, and adored them as his own. He would never admit it, but Scheherazade might have been his favourite. He dotes on his daughter, and will not let ANYONE put down their familial bonds. Just because he didn't father her, does not mean he is not her dad.
***NOTE: Scheherazade's biological father is,
Dysini'mbus! Please be careful when picking mates for these guys, as Dysi's lineage is pretty broad now c:
The Grandmama (Sabra Knight)
The Eldest Daughter (Velveteen Angel)
Ua was adopted by Hu in their original home forest. Sweet and innocent, she adores her papa. He's a bit on the cold side, but Ua has never taken that to heart. She is cheerful and optimistic, she'll be a little burst of sunshine around the cubs, spoiling them with snuggles and cuddles and possibly sneaking them from their parents for adventures.
** As part of the current Metaplot, Ua was gravely injured. People suspect it was a lion, but no one knows for sure. She will be recovering as the cubs grow, but will be still injured when they are born.
The Cubs:
Chiyo (Painted Moose)
Chiyo is an active night owl that prefers to stay away during the hours of her mother. Because of a few incidences in her youth she'll come to believe that she isn't intellectually smart enough to take up a scholars route and devote herself to defense. She tries to take the weight of the world on her shoulders, and is rather passionate about it, but that just means she's one of the easier ones to snap. She's also under the assumption that if an individual cannot provide a service that they're a waste and should be avoided, leading her to a critical eye of the world.
Ai (Velveteen Angel)
The only male in a large, female dominated litter, Ai sticks to his father like a shadow. Not out of dislike for his mother, but out of a desperate need to escape all the feminine influences surrounding him. He will grow up to be quiet, and respectful of females, but a little distant to those all around him.
Cebisile (Zosie)
She is quite interested in how the mind works, especially in regards to bad feelings (i.e. war, as they are a peaceful group), and also a little bit of an unintentional feminist. She will love giving advice and will try to understand everyone she can.
