Masa: *takes note. . or will when she returns from a nap* x3 Pfft, much love to you (and everyone else lurking about) who are interested in making this idea spring forth in to something awesome.

For the Secret Keepers, I sort of figured it would contain mostly vultures, hyenas, wild dogs, maned wolves, and jackals.

<<; Honestly, just about any species could be kosher so long as it's not a fellow lion. They just have to be cool with disposing of the bodies reverently (no gloating over their cushy life) and vow to take an oath of secrecy and silence on the matter.

blaugh Coolies, I shall quest for a Secret Keeper too then. Lioness would come first though, so you don't have to mark me down for a Secret Keeper just yet.

Uta; Well you are welcome to own it yourself, but if for some reason you have to be gone for an extended period of time the pride could be disbanded. So having at least one other co-owner, one that's pretty reliable is a good thought.

I technically only have one pride that I 'own' which shouldn't be too hard to maintain so I can help you if you want. I'll just have to quest for a lion for the pride first XD

I'd love for alchemilla to be one of the three master healers if that would be okay ^_^!

also, do you have aim/ can I pm you uta? I'd like to ask you something.

xd It turns out I already own someone suitable for being a Secret Keeper. His name is Nili'asikari, which means "indigo warrior". XD; Despite owning him for years, I've never actually RPed him. He's a Gen 3, so he could happily work as a long-time member.

Personality wise, I always imagined him to be someone that keeps very much to themselves. This would be ideal for the Secret Keeper rank, as he's not one to socialise very much anyway. heart

Nuxaz: Well by all means, I'm looking for one or two more co-owners, just in case RL eats my soul somewhere. Lemme toss you a PM, because any help would be fabulous~! <3

Syurius: I sort of thought of Alchemilla myself originally, but figured I'd let you make a decision before I tossed her with rank. ; P

AIM is Apathetic Terror, but I need to add you first if you have AIM since it's friends blocked due to some unsavory exes whom like to give me hell. x_x PM's are always welcome though, no need to ask!

Masa: Ooooh, very lovely! I'll definitely add him as a long standing Secret Keeper!

Edit: Oh, and for folks offering members could you just let me know if you're hoping for them to be original members or new ones. . .? Just so I'll know. If it's a ranking position chances are they'll more than likely have been around for awhile.

D: This concept is so full of win.

And since I don't have anyone who fits, I'll definately be customing in.
PostPosted: Tue Aug 25, 2009 8:50 pm


Thanks Moose~! I look forward to seeing what future characters show up to fill this place out. :3

Also! Am gonna start poking at names for this pride. . . .
Suggestions are indeed welcome and maybe we'll put 'em to a vote after a couple days! Feel free to post ideas/meanings here and I'll gather up a list.

Added a couple mini-ranks in the non-royal section. . .

Basically Spies (these few started as scouts and as far as the pride is concerned are still CALLED scouts) but between the ruling royalty and the spies themself they are exceptional rogues. They handle delicate matters and help inform the King of any disturbances within or outside the pride. They're also talented at procuring information from outsiders one way or another. . . . They really are spies though, so they are invaluable to the king. It's true the ruling family has eyes and ears everywhere. . .mwahaha!

Master Hunters . . . pretty self-explanatory. These hunters tend to lead the hunting parties assigned by the king and teach/assist new hunters joining the ranks.

Aaaand. . . . .uh. . . . .Warriors! There was no reason having two names (Guards/Warriors) so new recruits or mediocre fighters are generally called guards. They defend and fight and are called on when needed . . but they all train under a few well known Warriors. They are exceptionally skilled in the art of war, as both killers and defenders.

Just little ranks that cubs and new members can strive for should they wish it.

Uta!! Could you hop on AIM for a second please? o:

*editedit* To add some stuff. 8D;

I wanna offer up a possible Secret Keeper? o: Considering her age I imagine she'll be a newer member, but since she has little background (she has no finished RPs, but I've settled on a personality XD) I think it'd be safe to assume that she slipped away from her parents at a younger age and happened upon the pride as she wandered? Anywho! Here's Kat~

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.
She was born with a disfigured leg so she's a bit of a meanie. She's pretty smart, kind of arrogant and tends to look down on others because of her own insecurities. She comes from a broken sort of family and so she doesn't let anyone close to her and she mostly just keeps to herself. Mind you, she's arrogant, but she's not above taking freebies where she can find them. >o>; Exploiting her slight handicap, if you will. lol


Ahh, I also wanted to quest for an original member, if that's alright with you. :3 I'm not sure about their rank though, so I've still got to think about that.

Pao! Feel free to IM me anytime m'dear. . . or drop a PM too, whichever is easier. <3

I certainly have no objections of newer Secret Keepers. The pride would happily accept her and honestly, so long as she kept to the oath of secrecy on exactly uh. . . . what she does. . . . (I'll explain this more later on what the whole pride knows of the secret keepers and, obviously, what they don't and aren't allowed to know) she'll be just fine!

*goes to add her to the list*

And when you decide on a rank for an original member, by all means just let me know so I can add you to the list. ; P Or at least keep a note of people who have on-going quests for various members.


Syrius: Yeah, I think she'll be great at her position too. Very fitting. :3
PostPosted: Wed Aug 26, 2009 6:50 am


She'd most certainly love to hang around. For a plague of this magnitude [and to have lasted past her rebirth cycle], it might actually have natural starts she simply nurtured. It would be interesting though, it this was some sort of experiment for her. Sort of testing things smallscale for a future widescale epidemic~ She looves things like that.

As far as her and her daughter goes- you might like to think of Amaret as some sort of really edgy, dark artist. She's all off scene. One day, she gets drunk, has an apifany, and paints this amazingly beautiful religious picture. She's wowed, but puts it in a closet, because well, it doesn't fit in with anything else she's ever done. Eventually, someone finds it, and it finds it's way on the internet- and all of a sudden, that's the only picture of Amaret's anyone ever wants to see. So she feels sort of like that artist might. On one hand, she absolutely loathes it. And on the other- she's her greatest work. She'll never do anything as awesome as that again. She's has conflicting feelings of pride and disgust towards Amedia.

99% of the time she'll make things difficult for Amedia and oppose her. But she views their conflicts as games more then as wars or anything serious. Amedia pities her mother- although the angriest you'll ever see her is when she's opposite her.

Amaret herself is sort of...wavering. She's kind of like a punch-clock villain. She isn't always evil. She's primarily motivated by what amuses her.

@Masa: And, as far as her priestess goes- I think it'd be awesome if you made one. :3 Amaret could sort of show up as her 'own' priestess and maybe throw out some controversial theories and perhaps just be a thorn in the high-priestess's side. I don't think she'd actually want to be spot center. She'd worry about what other gods [Like Jaddis XDDD] might think of her if she was being that deluded.

This is the custom I'd be wanting to be the High Priestess. I've been trying for this girl for a while. She's based on a very rare type of shark called a frilled shark. The pictures and video in the refs were taken of a frilled shark that had come to the surface to die (XP; I find this so ironic now that I want to put an SoA based on the frilled shark into a diseased pride).

Name: Ishara (meaning strange thing)
Owner: ~Masamune~
Species: Lioness (Old Lines)
Pride/Pack: Rogue
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Parents: N/A
Offspring: N/A
Description: XD; I know the ref pics aren't great, so I'll do my best to describe how I'd like her to look. For starters, I would want her to have a dull grey coat. Then on her neck, I would like 5 gill markings in the form of the pretty pink frills. Her eyes should be a milky light blue (with no dark outline inside the eye so they stand out more), and her nose and inside of her ears should be dark grey. XP; Now here's where it gets tricky.
You can see from the ref pics and the vid that this shark is different colours in different places. Towards the back and on her tail, she should have a dull tan colour. Then on her paws/legs/belly extra, some dark grey. Then towards the front/top, some off-white. ALL of these extra colours should look faded, so they blend with the main coat colour at the edges instead of just looking painted on (like my crazy ref done in Paint). Just do what you think will look good. XD She's not meant to be super pretty, so even if you think she'll turn out badly, don't worry about it.
Reference Images: Ref Vid, Ref 1, Ref 2, Ref 3, Ref 4, Ref 5


^w^ heart I'd love to work with Mims if my custom idea gets OKed to be the High Priestess. xp I've gotta head off now, but I'll post stuff about her personality and how she would be ICly later.
