Stormborn Personality Contest Thanks for peeking in! Tan and I have two cubs to give away and we're super excited! This contest will run for one week and will be judged as quickly as possible. We would like the cubs to stay until adolescent, but then they're free to go if you so choose. They're also free to seek out their father, although all they'd have to go on is a name, a description, and the pride that he is in. Keep in mind that the pride he calls home has a disease that can infect and kill lions, so tread with caution if you do decide to go on a father hunt! This will close promptly at 11 AM EST in one week, whether or not Tan or I are here to close it. Please get all entries in/edited before then. Thanks, and good luck! Starts: 4/29 11 AM EST Ends: 5/6 11 AM EST

The Family  Sliabh | Tanakako A giant among lions, he is the size of a liger and rivaled in height only by those of god blood. Stoic and steady, with a reserved and quiet personality. A true gentle giant, his secret pleasure is watching cubs at play. He is a guard in his home pride the Kitwana Antara, the Diseased Pride. Sliabh, as an immune male, was tasked with siring many litters to bring back to the pride. For years he has roamed the rogue lands, seeking willing females who would let him take his cubs home with him, guided by his Seer gift. On his last trip home he has finally been relieved of the duty bestowed on him so long ago by his Queen. And home he has stayed ever since, not realizing that his very last encounter did in fact produce new life in the form of a Stormborn litter.  Fastný | SilverLutz Fastný is steadfast and confident in her thoughts and actions and is as steady as a rock when it comes to her opinions. She doesn't judge others based on their thoughts and feelings, though, and is willing to help out a complete stranger as quickly as her dearest friend. She's generally a bit conflicted since so many in her pride treat females differently than she feels they should be treated, but it's rare when she speaks out against it. As a seer, her visions are few and far between and she hasn't been able to tell what they mean. They've very vague and are visual riddles, so she doesn't pay them much mind.  Sebor | SilverLutz Grandmother to the cubs, Sebor will be very present in their lives. Rough around the edges but warm inside, Sebor is a tough love kind of lady. She's quick to point out faults, but equally as swift to help someone in need. As long as you are courteous to her, she'll be there when you're in a pinch. Very no-nonsense and collected, it takes a lot to rile her up. If you do succeed in ruffling her feathers, you'd better hope you can run faster than her. She'll give you a sound beating to teach you a lesson.  Talfrid | Lithiasaur The God of Chivalry and the cub's grandfather. He's fairly busy with his pride at the moment, but if you poke Lith I'm sure there's potential for RP there.  Hakon | Tanakako Loud, brash, honest and very observant. He is a tall cub, inheriting his height from both his god-born mother and his giant father. More than happy to brawl with his siblings and fight to defend his honor and the honor of his friends and family, Hakon is trusting, optimistic, fun loving and virtuous to a fault. He will grow into a warrior par excellence and has a natural ability to inspire trust and loyalty in people through being honest, upstanding and true.  Eir | SilverLutz Following in the pawprints of her father, Eir is a gentle giant. She values words more than actions and isn't very impressed by all the fighting and roughhousing that is common within the Stormborn. With a deep sense of helping others ingrained in her from birth, Eir will strive to be a Lawspeaker to help maintain the balance and justice that sometimes seems to be lacking within the pride she calls home. She'll be supportive of her family but won't stand for nonsense or ruthlessness, qualities she deems worthy of no living creature. Custom-In Sister ? | Tanakako Graceful and generous, she tries her hardest to be the proper Stormborn Lady, and she generally succeeds. She listens to others, helps those in need and works hard for her family and friends. But under the graciousness is a strong heart and a stubborn streak a mile wide. If roused, she has a wicked temper and no fear of the fight, willing to plunge headlong into a brawl. She is an extremely talented fighter, having trained with several of the most prominent Captains and Reavers in the pride, as well as by her brother Hakon. But she tries to be dignified and noble most of the time, living up to the stories of the Great Ladies in myth and legend that she loved to listen to whenever the pride Bards gave into her badgering.

Twins are fun! Name: Magnhildr Meaning: mighty in battle Future Rank: Reaver Personality: Competitive, fiery-spirited, boastful, not good with humility. She often takes her words and competitive spirit too far, and can stomp on other's feelings without meaning too, but then when they get upset she doesn't know how to apologize, so she just gets mad at them; "don't be so sensitive! You're too thin-skinned, grow a backbone!" Because apologizing or admitting she was wrong is just... Unthinkable! She isn't evil, though, just...a brat. Extra:Competition-biddies! Rivals! Someone putting her in her place! How many lined SB do you own?: 2, only one on lines.

I mustache you a question Name: Taranu Meaning: To thunder Future Rank: Captain Personality: Arrogant, bullheaded, and an all around trouble maker. He is not a bad cub, he is simply full of himself and believes that the world revolves around him. He's an outgoing "can't stop won't stop" kind of cub and will try anything that won't kill him or get him in too much trouble. Taranu enjoys getting attention from others, particularly from his mother and other strong members of the pride, and is always trying to impress his grandmother. Taranu spends much of his time listening to stories and trying to outsmart his siblings. Extra: Sly and sure of himself as an adult, Taranu will work hard to be a captain. He is all about the fame and glory of being a successful reaver and will seek to outshine others whenever possible. He will likely not settle down at any point in his life, his wanderlust will keep him looking to the horizon for the next adventure. How many lined SB do you own?: 0 Lined SB

I mustache you a question Name: Ridderlighet Meaning: Chivalry (Swedish) Future Rank: Reaver Personality: Although his appearance clearly comes from his mom's side of his family. Ridderlighet's personality is very much like his father's. He lives with a large sense of duty on his shoulders. He tends to hold himself to a higher standard than anyone else. He has a lot of pride in his home and would do anything to make it a better place. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body. While he will grow to be a Reaver he does it out of a sense of duty to the pride. The thralls he takes on will be to save them for a poor situation, he would never forcibly take someone from their home and make them work for him. Instead he finds lions that have a life that sucks and attempts to make it better by bringing them home with him. Extra: The other thing that Ridderlighet seems to have gotten from his father is a love of females and children. As a reaver he will spend a fair amount of time in the pride. While he enjoys spending his time with ladies if he can he will stick around to see if any cubs come (or at least check back with the female) and if possible he will bring cubs home with home. He wants to have a huge family. How many lined SB do you own?: 9 lined

Twins are fun! Name: Jormungandr Meaning: World Serpent birthed by Loki in Norse Mythology; rnrmy and eventual killer of Thor in Ragnarok. Future Rank: Freeborn Personality: Jormungandr is.... A calm sort. She emotes, but what she's thinking, what she feels she keeps to herself or those close to her. As much as she loves her family, she is a bit of a wanderer, curious about the outside world, the inside, and so forth, and doesn't sit well.
If you ask her, she's looking for... Something. Is it a friend, or something else? Porpuse? Meaning? She actually doesn't know and can't answer. Still, she expects to find it and feel it resonate in her very being. Jormungandr is a spiritualist, believing in instinct to guide religion and paws, not a priest or priestess, and while not disrespectful, she doesn't truly believe many beliefs blindly. Think of her as a bit of a heretic...
To that end, she doesn't think anybody is better than anybody. No, she won't disrupt social order, but males and females are the same to her - and a male pushing her about will get a firm, rude awakening. Extra: ROAMING! Solo Vikings! Maybe befriend some thralls and try to get hold of them. She doesn't hate or mistreat slaves but knows there's Ways To Do Things. Maybe she might even become overprotective of some of her own slaves and get into a fight about it. How many lined SB do you own?: HA HA HA HA HA HA are you joking I own 0 lines stormborn.

Twins are fun! Name: BeylaMeaning: Cow, Old Norse Future Rank: Freeborn - Reaver Personality: Growing up, where Hakon is tall, she's... round. Beyla struggles with her weight and appearance among her handsome and beautiful and tall siblings. She works extra hard to prove herself and is her toughest critic. She trains as often as she can, even as a cub, sparring with other freeborn children. She has god blood, for goodness sake, she needs to be worthy of it, and worthy of being a reaver in a pride that is so tough on females. She seeks wisdom and comfort from her mother, but mostly her grandmother. Sebor won't spare her feelings but Beyla knows its only out of love and not unkind. When she grows into an adult, that's when puberty changes and her wideness becomes tallness. Her height rivals that of any god-born lion around. She's taller than most male Stormborn. She never had it easy interacting with boys when she was a plump little cub, but now it's awkward for another reason. Male Stormborn don't often like to be shown up, even if it's an issue they can't control, like how tall they grew. So she's never really considered marriage or settling down. She's still too busy training. Extra: I'd like her to get grandma really mad one time. > u> How many lined SB do you own?: 9???

Twins are fun! Name: glödande kol Meaning: burning coal (Swedish) Future Rank: Freeborn Personality: Quiet, Loyal, Gentle but has no issues fighting when it comes down to it but wont fight a unneeded one. she is very much the polar opposite of her loud and brash twin but in certain way is like him by being very honest though her honesty is always very brutally blunt. for being the quiet type she has no issues telling it like it is when she feels the need and can be pretty fiery at times but only when riled which takes a lot. Extra: twin plots of course where one or the other gets them both into some trouble -I love twin plots- How many lined SB do you own?: 5
