Preferred Rank: Shatkona! Nah, a youth.
Personality: Cirdan has the energy of twelve lion cubs and the speed of a cheetah. He can be rather silly at times, and he never knows when to stop playing. While he's a cheerful, mischievous bloke, he has courage and bravery by the yard. He rarely thinks of his own safety and often gets himself into trouble. He has a good nature, despite his playful pranks, and has refused to let being cub-napped change his personality.
Recently, though, he's become more wary nowadays. The Ligi members seem nice, if grumpy, yet everyone seems to be terrified of them. He isn't sure what or who to believe anymore.
Background: Cirdan has lived an idyllic life as a cub, traveling on his own without parents or siblings to guide him. His adventures have taken him all across the rogue lands, giving him many friends and acquaintances along the way. On one such adventure, he came across what appeared to be a mighty warrior, and Cirdan bothered the warrior with his cub antics, following the warrior around and generally being a nuisance. Eventually that warrior offered him a safe place to rest that night in a nearby canyon, and he happily took up the offer. The place seemed fun at first. The gorgeous scenery kept him occupied for most of the night, yelling at the canyon walls to hear his echo and chasing pebbles floating through the stream. Cirdan began to realize that something was wrong in the valley, though. Everyone seemed rather quiet, and they seemed more sad to see him than happy. The next morning he decided to continue his wanderings, but the big warrior told him he had to stay. When he tried to leave anyway, more warriors blocked his path and refused to let him leave the canyon. His cheerful personality won't accept that people would be so mean to him, so he lives in his own little world where the big warriors are just being silly and aren't dangerous at all. He refuses to believe that he's been cub-snatched.
For now, he's been content hanging out with the locals and playing with the other cubs. Several pride members have tried to protect him from the Ligi members' wrath, which has been proving to be a hard job. Cirdan has yet to grasp the real gravity of his situation, or even that the others in the valley are fighting for their lives each day under a murderous tyrant. He thinks that the Ligi members are amusing, and he often chases their tails while they're trying to patrol the area. He thinks this nonsense about a Chosen One is silly, because despite all the rumors of deaths and violence he's heard from the locals, the Ligi members aren't that mean. Right?
Are you interested in the Rise of the Chosen One metaplot?: Yes, most definitely. As a cub, Cirdan might not be able to help much, but he would sure try. Once he realizes what's going on, he would try his best to help the other pride members. He's a brave soul, and unless the Ligi convinced him that the locals were lying, he'd help overthrow Sahen's cruel regime.
Would you like to be the Chosen One?: Cirdan wishes he could be the Chosen One, but the likelihood that the gods would choose a hyperactive, pink-and-blue cheeton cub as their vessel of deliverance is rather slim.
Applying to be a Ligi member?: No, although he might support them at first out of naivete.
Let me know anything I might need to change! I was just making it up as I went along. xD
