Welcome to Gaia! ::

SoA's Name: Mihkokwan
SoA's Image: Clicku! <3
Why do they want to join? She grew up as a rogue with no family, no pride,. Had never really thought to join a pride, but once she found out about the Ela, she became interested in joining, and will head there with her friend/future mate, Kafele. x3
What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? Mihko would offer her very special first feather she found. (it's old and tattered and not so pretty anymore, but it is very, VERY special to her. =3)
Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? So far it is just plotted that she ends up there with Kafele, eventually I would love for them to have a family together there. <3

Withdrawing to wait on/continue plot/RP. Will apply to join again at a later date. Sorry! D8

SoA's Name: Ciqala
SoA's Image: Uncert
Why do they want to join? Ciqala was originally a 'Ghost' in a rather secluded and secretive sort of pride. ((OOCly: I forget the name of it, d'oh.)). Unfortunately, it didn't last, and many of its members scattered over the plains of Africa. With his family broken up and his siblings walking their own paths, the quiet, almost shy Ciqala has been doing his best in the rogue lands. Unfortunately, he hasn't been fairing well. He misses having a family to protect, a pride to look to, and was drawn to the Ela'wadiyi lands for that particular reason.

They are a place for refugees, for those who have no home, for those who seek peace and protection. His gentle spirit yearns for a new pride and a new place to call home, somewhere he can finally rest and settle his weary paws.

What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? Ciqala was offer bits of his fur -- a longer piece of his brown mane, and some white, shorter furs of his body. He will also offer a small stone, to signify the rogue lands from which he has come and his long journey from his old home to his new.

Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? Nope! Hoping to find some though, figured the place could use a few who are open to future development.

SoA's Name: Yuma'li
SoA's Image: Uncert
Why do they want to join? Yuma'li is looking for a place to call home. She has been a rogue for the majority of her life, and while she enjoys the freedom it gives her, she craves finding a place to call home. Her paws are tired of knowing no place to call home.

She has wisdom, experience, and the shadows of heartache. Though she has seen much of the world, she wishes to finally find a place to belong. A pride that might accept her, a place where she can settle without having to stop roaming. The fact that the Clans migrate over the lands means she will feel settled without giving up the movement and activity of a rogue lioness, which should keep her wandering paws happy.

By joining, she believes she can turn over a new leaf. The vanity and pride a younger lioness might feel has grown out of this older female. She isn't ancient or grey yet, simply mature and in the prime of her life. If she can't have a family ((she believes she's infertile -- its not true)), she can be part of a pride; if she cannot find joy in her appearance ((she believes her coat ugly)), she can push aside vanity and do good work with her paws for the Ela'wadiyi.

Yuma'li is ready for a new start.

What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? Tufts of fur from her coat.
Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? Nope! Am glad to keep her open, so plotting and development can happen with her Clan.

SoA's Name: Witu Majani
SoA's Image:
Why do they want to join? He has traveled as a rogue all his life. He was even raised by a rogue mother. He is still rather young in age only having left his mother behind in the last year. His mother had kept him from pride life purposefully. When he heard of the Ela pride and the Tree Ceremony allowing in new members he knew he had to try the life his mother kept him from.
What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? A lock of his mane.
Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? No.

SoA's Name: Aarazthoorus
SoA's Image: [uncerted]
Why do they want to join? Aarazthoorus will be following her mate Urzlan (Samus x) here. She will go where ever he leads the way. He's her everything, and trusts anything he tells her. She comes from no pride background, but respects and understands prides and feels her and Urzlan would be safer in one.

Other than that, she's pretty much a blank slate, and I want to start to get her more involved in things, and I think putting her in a pride would help start some plots, and get some interactions with others and possibly a better solid story and personality with her.

What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? A fine eagle feather with string and beads, and a small lock of her silver fur.
Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? No, though she already has a mate, Urzland (played by Samus x), who is also going to be posted for joining.

SoA's Name: Hakizimana
SoA's Image: [Uncert]
Why do they want to join? Hakizimana was raised by his older half-brother, since his father knew nothing of him and his mother is insane. Kizi is looking for a solid group of people, instead of the family he has that is constantly at war with one another, that will love and support him. In short, a family that he can shower with affection, and protect with ferocity.
What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? A snip of his mane, and his brother's earring; given to him as a good luck charm.
Do you have a plot for them already within the Ela'wadiyi? No

SoA's Name: Thea
SoA's Image: [x]
Why do they want to join? Thea and her brother Orion are two siblings who are nearly inseparable.

While she gave them everything the lioness grew old and eventually her sickly nature overtook her and without being able to prevent it the two siblings had to tend to their dying mother and sit back as her life faded from her eyes. Now lost with only each other to keep them company the pair of siblings traveled in order to find a brighter place where hope could be restored even after losing their beloved mother.
What will they offer to the fire during the tree ceremony? One of her mother's shells. It's a way of releasing a part of the guilt she held onto from not being able to save her mother.
