Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Kohrisu

Meaning: The Romaji version of "Chorus".

Line Art: Rogue Male (New. He was born a rogue, and shall remain a rogue!)

Markings: White paws fade into blue, and he has a white mulle marking like TLK. He also has specticle markings-- similiar to TLK around his eyes, but white, outlined in black fur, and with a black line across his nose, to complete the specticle marking. >w< His mane and tail tuft are the same white-blue, and he is otherwise a noin-pastel, non-neon light blue.

Personality: Meek. Kohrisu hates fighting, except to protect his cubs. If asked, he will, but he prefers to avoid conflict. Instead, he is very intellegent, friendly, and warm. He loves his cubs, and will often be seen teaching them about the stars.

Back Story: (Note: Parts of Kohrisu's story involve Andrani's two God Concepts, Uchusichusi, the God of Darkness, and Shahaab, the God of Stars. Both are used with permission by Andrani. Moyo is just that, named Moyo. Not to be confused with the existing SOA. XD; And she's my idea.)

Shahaab, the God of Stars, had once loved a mortal female. When he and the female came together, they bore a litter, and one such cub was named Kohrisu. Eventually it came to be Kohrisu's mother was killed, and Shahaab took him into his care.

Years later, Kohrisu went to take a walk, when he came across the wounded form of a massive lioness, a deep ruddy brown and the size of a liger. And Kohrisu took her in, and cared for her. He soon learned the lioness' name, Moyo, and that her father had told her her mate had been slain, and she had failed to avenge him. Further, her father had to take her son away to safety, lest the rogues slay him, too. Kohrisu could say nothing, but he offered his reassurance and friendship. Moyo agreed. Time passed, and Kohrisu came to meet her father; the God of Darkness. It was astounding. The two Demigods were fast friends, and the Gods were pleased.

One day, Moyo came to Kohrisu, and in her sorrow of losing her mate, begged Kohrisu to help her sire a son, to name in his honour. Reluctantly, Kohrisu agreed, as her friend. Pregnancy came as usual, and the litter appeared due on schedule, but hope was not to last, as the lioness, in her hunt, encountered one of the rogues. They attacked her promptly, and the lioness fought back. She fought long, and hard, and while the rogues were driven away, Moyo collapsed.

Kohrisu found the lioness in early labour, and quickly set about tending to the terrified lioness and the unborns. The cubs were born, as all cubs are, although they were unnaturally small. Moyo and Kohrisu worked daily to keep their cubs alive, Kohrisu taking the role of Hunter as Moyo tried to keep her children warm and fed. And as Kohrisu hunted, and watched the stars he knew, he prayed for their life. And every day, they lived just a little longer, and while one did indeed die, the others lived, and their eyes opened, and they were weaned. And these few cubs survived. Kohrisu soon set to teaching them of Stars as they came to understand, and Moyo taught them of Darkness, and the two friends were delighted, for while they agreed they could never be mates, their children WERE important... Even if Moyo never got the male worthy of naming for her mate, her heart was set on loving her cubs.

One day, tragedy one again came. The rogues returned, screaming of Firekin, which Moyo was not of, and they attacked. In the battle, Moyo and Kohrisu tried saving their cubs, and the cubs scattered. It was not until Moyo was slain that the Gods themselves intervened on the behalf of their children. But it was too late. When the fighting cleared, Moyo was dead, and Kohrisu was severely wounded. One lone cub, who hid and watched the slaughter, Kabichi, tried to wake her father, who, too injured to respond, appeared dead, and, unsure of where her siblings were, Kabichi fled.....

Kohrisu roused after a long time, to an empty belly, and many cuts, but he was alive. Horrified at the death and his missing cubs, the lion mourned, believing them dead, untill he found a scent. Faded, left hours before, Kohrisu began to follow the scent, and find his daughter....

Body: Lanky. Kohrisu lacks brute strength, but he makes up for it in speed and agility, as well as grace and intellegence.
