Family situation: Aoife, the mother, was kidnapped out of the roguelands by Ragnvard several seasons ago. She was trapped under his paw as his thrall and suffered badly, taking the brunt of the Captain's temper, being his punching bag and slave. Underfed and sick she wouldn't have survived much longer.
That was when Tendaji met and fell in love with her, and she for him. Their relationship was kept completely secret, and as their attachment grew Aoife started to believe she could escape from Ragnvard in time. But then she discovered she was pregnant and knew it was not Ragnvard's litter. She fled in terror, straight into Tendaji's den and begged him to save their babies. Of course ragnvard was enraged that his thrall was missing but Aoife managed to remain hidden until the litter was born.
Now with cubs to feed the family are about to be discovered and Ragnvard has every intention of taking back his property and the cubs.
The next stage of the plot: Ragnvard will confront Tendaji with every intention of killing the other male, just how me and Zosie work out the encounter is yet to be decided, but Ragnvard will be thwarted and the cubs will stay with Tendaji and Aoife. Tendaji also takes Aoife as his wife before the cubs are born, elevating her and their cubs to freeborn status, which will be formerly recognised after the battle.

Aoife: A sweet, shy and submissive female, she has a heart of gold and dearly loves her husband and her family. Once Princess and heir in her home pride, her younger sister schemed to have her murdered, wishing both the crown and Aoife's betrothed. The attempt failed, but Aoife fled after narrowly avoiding being drowned. Ragnvard discovered her while she was recovering in the roguelands, taking her as his thrall. [Tanakako]  Tendaji: A driven lion who makes things happen with great force and determination. He is strong and proud. He's not a big a brute as some of the Stormborn, and though he seeks glory in battle and being a Reaver, he has some boundaries. Determined/ Proud [Zosie] Kaisa - Albino triplet to Odile and contest boy. She takes very much after her mother, sweet and rather shy, she is easily intimidated. [Tanakako] Odile: Triplet to Kaisa. [Zosie] [Zosie]  Eir - She is very family-loyal because of things, and going so far as trying to protect her family as an adult when able. [NovaCracker]

Cub 1 entries: DavyJnah Entering for the white brother Name: Porfredr Meaning/origin: Derived from the Old Norse elements Þórr (see THOR) and friðr "peace" Personality: A bit more gentle than the rest of his family he is more like a mother. A bit soft spoken but don't take his demeanor as he won't fight to protect what is his. Even quiet ones have their breaking points. Future plots: Family RP. Ragnvard plots. Anything else: He probably won't want to raise up in the ranks. Andranis Entering for the white brother Name: Anvindr Meaning/origin: "Against the wind" - An old Norse name composed of the elements an(Against) and vindr(Wind) Personality: Anvindr feels sometimes like he lives up to his name. Gentle and sensitive, he's deeply empathetic to others' emotions. If somebody near him is sad, he feels sad. If they're happy, he feels their happiness. For this reason, his greatest aim in life is to make others smile, any way he can. He has no iron in his blood, but he doesn't care. He has a slight infatuation with one of Ragnvard's sisters, but he's too shy to say which one it is. Future plots: Anvindr won't be a Reaver, that's for sure! He's not sure if there's a proper job name for him, since there's not really therapists in the Stormborn. He'll certainly try, though! Eventually he'll find the courage to confess his affections for the girl he admires, if somebody doesn't get her first. Anything else: I'm totally not saying who the girl he's admiring from afar is ~ Also, I don't think I've ever seen anybody with the idea of a therapist character in SoA before. (And, one last thing - I have tried to resist, but dangit I can't resist any more!) Puhterodactyl Entering for the white brother Name: Vit'vængur Meaning/origin: White wing, Swedish/Icelandic Personality: Like his father, he believes in the glory of the Reaver. He has a very strong code of honor that he adheres to. Like not being unkind to thralls just because they're thralls, for example (especially because his mother was one formerly). He realizes the world is not black and white but instead shades of gray, but there's always a more right and a more wrong in his mind. Future plots: I'd like him to become a reaver, and even a captain someday. I'd like if he got the chance to face off with Ragnvard, fight for his mom's honor or something like that, and probably get his a** kicked bc the gap in experience. Anything else: Will stay in the pride till at least adolescence! Tisiphone Entering for the white brother Name: Hvítr Meaning/origin: White and Shining Personality: Being hidden away and feeling frightened will make him cling to rules. (depending on how involved the cubs are/how much they see of the fight with Ragnvard will make him have to cling to rules to feel everything is safe.) Very morale and wanting things to be either right or wrong. Not able to see gray areas very well. He will be a tattle tale as a cub but probably get his butt kicked because of it and grow more introverted about his moral compass. Feels that hurting another lion as his mother was used as a punching bag is one of the worst things that could happen. Respects weaker beings. Future plots: Would love for him to try and be a lawspeaker. Also get his butt kicked in his youth cub-adol for being a bit of a tattle tale and telling it how it is. Anything else: wont leave the SB AstoriaFallen Entering for the white brotherName: Höðr pronounced Hodor (hold the door -cackles-) Meaning/origin: "god of winter" Personality: He's going to be brash and harsh towards those that aren't close to him. Well, he'll be like that to his siblings too because you need tough love to grow up big and strong. Despite is rough exterior he's going to have a soft heart for his sisters but that's about it. He won't show he cares often but when he does it's for a good reason and it shouldn't be taken lightly. Future plots: He is going to be into a lot of fights. He will want to rise up to the rank of captain as quickly as he can and strike out on his first viking as soon as he is able. He will avenge what happened to their mother. Anything else: <3 <3 <3 Thank you!

Cub 2 entries: SilverLutz Entering for Triplet Name: Ýrar Meaning/origin: Icelandic, from Yrr - wild - and Her - warriorPersonality: Ýrar takes after his father more than his mother, although her love of their family runs within him as well. He is focused and never gives up on whatever he wants, no matter how hard a task may seem. That focus and determination makes him horribly stubborn, so much so that he would rather fight with the risk of injury or death on the line rather than admit he was wrong. Future plots: I'd like for him to confront Ragnvard when he's old enough once he learns about how he treated his mother. Ideally I'd like for a fight between the two with Ýrar coming out alive, but badly injured in some way. He'd be dead set on thwarting any venture Ragnvard takes from there on out, whether it's a simple Viking or trying to help any Thralls escape. He'd probably seek out Ronan to join his group, too. Anything else: All the Ragnvard plots! AstoriaFallen Entering for TripletName: Svanr Meaning/origin: "male swan" Nordic Personality: Svanr takes after his father in being proud, but has his mothers build unfortunately so he's a little on the smaller side and can often be the butt end of some jokes. He usually finds himself in a few scrapes because of this. Just because he's small in size doesn't mean he's small in heart. He has high aspirations and plans to eventually challenge Ragnvard for what he did to their mother. He is extremely protective of his sisters and keeps a watchful eye out for each of them, even if they dislike his acting like a hawk around them. He'll be damned if anything like what happened to their mother happens to one of his sisters. He rue's the day any one of them decides to fancy a male. >.> Future plots: Lots of family rp. XD I would like for him to get into scrapes with other cubs that pick on him due to his size. Wouldn't mind him running into Ragnvard as a cub or even an adolescent and having even more of a reason to want to challenge him when he gets older. Anything else: Thank you for the opportunity. DavyJnah Entering for Triplet Name: Steinarr Meaning/origin: From the Old Norse name Steinarr, derived from the elements steinn "stone" and arr "warrior". Personality: A bit of a wild cub. He's somewhat stubborn and headstrong. He'll voice his opinion and sometimes it gets him in trouble, although he does know when he should say something and when not to. He just doesn't always have a filter. He's fierce. Definitely takes after his father more than his mother. He wants to make both of then proud. Future plots: Wants to become a Reaver or a Captain if he can. Wants to prove himself to the rest of the pride that he is a strong and capable leader. Anything else: Definitely Ragnvard plots or any plots that he can spend with his father to learn from him. Also thanks for opening up this contest! nessiaing Entering for Triplet Name: Tywyll Meaning/origin: Dark/ Welsh Personality: Dark and determined Tywyll wants to protect everyone and anyone in his life. He hates that his momma use to live under Ragnvard. He is determined to protect his mom and siblings (even though their dad is more than capable in his eyes). Tywyll has a special spot for his sister that are triplets with him. Although he loves all his siblings those two come first for him. Future plots: I would love for some of Tywyll's siblings to get annoyed with him over his desire to keep them protected from everything that goes bump in the night. He will train hard to become a Reaver and one day a Captain. Anything else: Puhterodactyl Entering for Triplet Name: Stór'fugl Meaning/origin: Big bird, Icelandic Personality: Being the only boy of triplets, he tends to ignore his sisters and seeks out his only other brother, or his father. He feels he has to be über masculine to stand out among his triplet sisters, though, so all the fighting and reaving he can do, the better. Honestly he'd probably be friends with the lil jerks who almost scared Kaisa off that cliff. :T Future plots: I could see him going 'to the dark side' and being manipulated by Ragnvard/that half of that family. Anything else: Will stay in the pride till at least adolescence!

Cub 3 entries: DavyJnah Entering for the sister Name: Karlek Meaning/origin: Love in Swedish Personality: She takes traits from both parents. A bit shy at first, but when she opens uo to another she can tell you all the things she would like to have plans for. She tries to stray away from conflict unless it gets right in her face and she has no choice but to confront it. Future plots: Family RPs. Definitely RP with other cubs of other families if she can. Anything else: Unless confronted by Ragnvard will try not to have anything to do with the male. AstoriaFallen Entering for the sisterName: Valda Meaning/origin: "Spirited Warrior" Norwegian Personality: Val has her eyes set on being a Priestess one day, but until then she's fine with being a reaver when she gets older. She's very calm and collected and has a caring outer-shell but deep down she's a fighter but she doesn't let anyone in on that. She figures if she can go as long as she can with seeming "meek and innocent" then she'll be off the radar for a while and no one will ever view her as a threat. She truly does care about her family, but beyond that you have to earn her trust and prove your loyalty before she even thinks about wasting her time on you. Future plots: I want her to be put in situations that she has to keep the role of "sweet and docile" in play or things could go south very quickly. It would be good character development for her and perhaps cause her to have an ever greater motivation to keep the facade going and train in secret to be a fighter. I would like for her to meet one of the Priestess's and that's when her curiosity for what they do and the aspiration to become one comes from. She'll likely want to shadow whomever it is to know what they know and see what they see. This could also be a plot in which they turn her away and that just makes her want to become one in the future even more. XD Family plots! I want her to get into an argument perhaps with one of her siblings, most likely Kaisa. She'll probably tell her have more of a backbone and to stand up for herself. Anything else: Thank you smile nessiaing Entering for the sister Name: Maito Meaning/origin: Milk/ Finnish Personality: Quiet and simple Maito desires the quiet life. She loves her family and the romantic idea she has in her head of how her poppa rescued her momma from the evil Ragnvard. Maito is a little fearful of the day that she may run into the evil lion. Even when full grown Maito will never be a super loud lioness, happy to be a freeborn female she has no need to try and be a reaver or a captain. Future plots: I would be somewhat interested in her potentially having a run in with Ragnvard whether directly or indirectly, hopefully it will help her get over her fears. She will grow into a 50s housewife type of idea. Finding a mate that she loves with all of her heart and keep his home life for him. Boring but its what makes her happy. Anything else: Valkymie Entering for the sister Name: Skogul Meaning/origin: Valkyrie name meaning Shaker or High-Towering. Norse Personality: Intimidating and righteous, Skogul will fight for what she believes in, no matter the cost. And she will fight with a gentle smile across her face. She values beauty as well as strength, and is willing to mete out justice to anyone, especially for the sake of those who cannot do so for themselves. She lives life with no regrets, believes her intentions are pure, and stands with her head always held high and proud. Future plots: Through Me First - Skogul refuses to let anyone wrong her family again. Should anyone try, they would have to do battle with her. Protector of the weak - Skogul may find a meek sibling or even a lost cub, and dedicate herself to guarding them. Humiliation - I think it would be interesting for her to meet her match in battle, and be defeated. OR to do something she actually regrets. OR have something done to her that would break her proud composure. And to see how she recovers from these falls. Anything else: Never did anything for SOA before, so thank you for the opportunity!
