This is Ookami_kinrei_chan's quest for a Shadows of Africa (SoA) custom lion, 'Kiva'.
QUEST COMPLETE.
  "Right... so, you're questing for what?"
A SoA, 'Shadows of Africa', Pride-lander lion cub. SoA is an awesome "Breedable/Changing Pet" store in Gaia. Kinrei really wants a lion, especially one that has been shaped to look like her already created original character, 'Kiva'. Awesome roleplay is everywhere in the SoA store, and I'd love to join in! <3
"Sounds cool! How much do you need?"
400k. ;D But I'm taking care of that, my own way! <3 What I need most are ideas for Kiva. n___n- <3 So, if you could shoot a suggestion about the best way to get a SoA, or any plot ideas that could go with Kiva, please do so here in this thread! =D It's Kinrei's newly created Gaian dream to get a Kiva SoA. xD
"How can I help? =3 "
x3 Donating is -always- apprechiated. However, I don't expect people to throw money at me. =3 What I'd like is some cool plot/design ideas to go with Kiva. This page is also so I can keep track of my Kiva concept and so I will feel more motivated to save up. xD *can't save up quietly* >.< *shot*

Name: Kiva'tani (Kiva, shortened)
Name Translation:
'Kiva' by itself means 'Agreement', 'harmony', 'unity', 'Approval' in Swahili.
Appearance: Kiva is a white lion. However, she has many orange stripes running down her ears, legs and face. ( whee ) She has one black eye and one yellow eye. Her eye-lids are also tinged with light orange.
On each cheek, two vibrant orange 'tiger-stripe' marks stretch towards her mouth.
Around Kiva's neck is also an orange 'ring-like' marking, which twists all the way around her neck, as if it was a necklace of some sort.
Her right forepaw has four orange stripes running across it. The last stripe is the largest, covering some of Kiva's paw as if it were a glove.
Her left is marked with four small 'tiger-stripes', then another glove-like stripe across her lower-leg and paw.
The rest of Kiva's body is pure white, excluding her orange tail. This tail is tipped with white. <3 x3 Kinrei's description is pretty bad, eh? But this is just rough stuff, not an English Essay, so let's move on. xD
Kiva's Personality:
Bold, loud and boisterous! =D She's a bit of a rat-bag, always doing incredibly stupid stuff without thinking things through. She's a little ignorant and headstrong, but she's very loyal to those she befriends and won't back down from a cause she believes in without a fight.
How Kiva was created:
One day, Kinrei was doodling in her school diary (where she usually draws her scrappy stuff xD). She drew a headshot of a strange cat and liked the design, so she re-draw the cat again.
I like to name the random characters I draw, and the name 'Kiva' suddenly came to mind. I had no idea if it was Swahili, or meant anything in Swahili, but I thought it just suited the character. Later on, my UBER AWESOME roleplay buddy, Spottedleef (a SoA maniac who introduced me to the store), suggested that I quest for my first (non-familiar type) SoA. And so, I decided to do just that... with Kiva! =D
Later, I looked up 'Kiva' in the Swahili dictionary, and it translated into some nice words. x3 AWESOME! However,, later on I found that the name 'Kiva' was already taken, so Kiva'tani will suit her fine, with 'Kiva' for a nickname instead. ^^-
Kiva Loves: Spiders. x3 She likes playing with them, pawing them and harrassing them. But she won't hurt them. xD

(MAYBE. This plot may not go through... It is not determined yet, since I missed the slot openings last customs. xD;; )
Kiva is to be 'found' by 'Kiwi' and 'Moyo'.
Kiva will be raised by these parents, yet she will not know her true origin... where did she really come from? Are Kiwi and Moyo really her biological parents?
How does Kiva react towards her siblings, whom of which are not 'adopted' as such?
However, despite these questions, Kiva will remain strong. She will never question the ways of her 'family', and will stick up for what she believes in. Of course, with her loud, boisterous attitude, she will shove all of her family 'moral' in others face.
Nicely, of course. (xD)
