 Show me what it's like...
Welcome to Last Resort, Kaoru's little spot in the universe for her beloved lions, hyenas, and familiars alike. Each creature has its on story to tell and a future to live for.
...to dream in black and white.
With different characteristics, personalities, views, and appearances, you'll often find them bonding with friends and family or even clashing with one another like a lightning bolt to the cold ground. Alas, these creatures have experienced life and death, love and lost...
So I can leave this world...
And some remember every star in the sky.
...behind

 From the building's ledge...Like in every thread, shop, journal, or topic there are always going to be rules. I decided to just post some ground rules, most of them you know seeing you have to abide by them every day on Gaia, others I made up on my own in order to keep things organized.
These will be rules for the journal, I will have separate rules for commissions in the commission post heart Thank you!
Do NOT steal ANY ideas posted in this journal! If you come in here and see journal spaces taken up by custom forms, ideas, drawings, or anything of mine that includes the making of a lion, do not take it and make it your own! If I see anyone with a custom that was one of my ideas, I will do anything in my power to have it taken away, etc. I am not trying to sound all mean about this, but it probably the rudest, most defying thing you could do (which I'm sure would make a lot of you happy -_-).
Remember to follow the Gaia TOS
This is not my coloring or breeding journal, please do not request customs and the like in here. I have seperate journals for that.
You may post whenever you like unless the title says "Closed" or "Under Construction"
Try to keep things on topic, its okay to chat, but just keep in mind that this journal is about my lions.
No fighting, there wouldn't be a reason to anyway
No stealing of the Pride Land's art or art of my own seeing I will be posting art. This means no editing or putting a picture into your profile, journal, or signature unless you have the owner's or my permission.
If you're looking for plots with any of my lions, please post a message or send me a PM/IM stating the lion and your idea
Please do not pester me into doing things like a breeding, a plot, etc. If I say no, the answer will most likely not change.
Don't tell me how to role play my lions. They all have the personalities they have for a reason. If I have a cosplay or something I don't quite live up to its character, get over it. I'll be trying my best.
Please do not take any pictures or content out of my journal unless you ask me and I approve of it. If you wish to use my format, please credit me somewhere on the first page of your journal
More will be added as needed

 ...never looking back at what
I had my own art shop, hand drawing and hand coloring people's avatars, I loved doing it and they loved the work. I loved running a shop, but it still wasn't what I wanted to do on Gaia, I wanted something a bit more to do with animals.
When I stumbled across the Breedables section, the first shop I entered was ::The Pride Lands:: A beautiful shop with many different colorful lions with unique backgrounds and features. From that moment I wanted to create my own breedable shop with the theme of wolves, getting into Photoshop right away and asking some of the colorists how to use it.
The next day the shop was having a flatsale and I saw a long list of lions for 6k. I didn't know too much about how breedables worked, but I did know that you couldn't get one for 6k at any convenient time. So I stuck around for a bit and finally found out how a flatsale worked. I had my eye on Tudora's number one (Scribble), but it didn't say "Newbie only" underneath it, so I stuck with the brown cub I liked. When Ushi posted go I quickly filled out the form and posted, but wasn't fast enough. The girl that got the lion I wanted PMed me and told me she had posted before me, then told me to post another one real quick. So I went for the little jigsaw puzzle lion and won him in the end.
I was so excited I didn't know what to think. I noticed a girl named ~Girl of black and white~ had received the lion I had my eye on in the first place (Scribble). I told her congratulations that she got the little cutie and was wishing a good life for them. However, she noticed the cub that I had won, was the one she actually wanted. All excited we asked Ushi if it was okay to trade the lions and she said it was fine. After everything was settled, Scribble was certed and ready to take home!
My first Pride Land's Lion and always my favorite, he started my obsession with this shop and the Breedables section of Gaia. So that is how I know and grow to love The Pride Lands, a wonderful shop indeed (excluding a few).

 ...we've doneI been a member since 3-18-2004 and I'm still going strong. I heard about Gaia from a good friend of mine, who let me use his account when Gaia was first created in 2003. After finding it to be such a fun site, I created my own account in 2004 and haven't changed since.
Nicknames: Kels, Wolfie, Wolf, Kao
Location: Massachusetts
Birthday: March 5th, 1989
Age: 20 ;n;
Personality: Be nice to me, I'll be nice to you. It's pretty simple, but some people can't seem to grasp this concept very much. I've grown up around guys ever since I was a baby and I don't think I've ever had a girl that I considered a "friend" since elementary school. I was made fun of in 5th grade for being a tomboy by these two bitchy girls and their little group of friends, so I'm a little hostile when it comes to girls. Call me sexist, I don't care, maybe I am. I'm sorry, but my opinion on girls won't ever change (and it's obviously continued to stand true since being in Pride Lands). Getting back on topic - I'm generally easy to get a long with. I'm sweet, loving, sometimes funny, and I like to have a good time. I have little self-confidence in my appearance, but I guess that's normal for most every female. I get very nervous when I have to present in from of children (yes I said children) my age because I don't like the whole "all eyes on me" concept. Aside from that, I'm brave and bold around my close friends and apparently looked up to as a leader by others. I find myself often being pushed into some sort of leadership position, so I never really mean it.
Likes: One of my life-long hobbies and most favorite thing to do would be video gaming. Ever since I was 1 1/2 years old, barely old enough to hold the controller, my Dad and I played the good old NES in a game called Double Dragons. I soon migrated to Mario, Duck Hunt, and a few of the other older games. At about the age of 6 I finally got my very own Nintendo 64, where I enjoyed games like Super Mario 64, Mario Kart, Banjo Kazooie, Legend of Zelda, and much more. During the time of the GameCube, PS2, and Xbox, I received a GameCube for Christmas, which I have no regrets for asking for. Not long after, however, I saved up and bought the PS2, which I returned a week later to get the Xbox and a game called Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo is where FPS started for me, as well as my future in gaming online. With the arrival of Halo 2 and Xbox Live, I dominated the boys and made a million friends over Live. Halo 2 kept me entertained for all the years it was out, until it's final game arrived in September of 2007. Out came Halo 3, the best game I have ever played in my life. Aside from college, my word currently wraps around that game like it was God to me XD. I run my own group of 100+ members in the Halo forums, and I have attended many tournaments in this game. I have even been challenged by the best Halo player in my town, whom I can't wait to face. This game has given me quite the local (even some global) reputation as a -good- girl gamer, not one of those females who pretend to like it. The Halo games have and continue to change my life.
Other things you ask? I have quite the obsession with the sky, both night and day (if you couldn't already tell with all my lions). With sky blue being my favorite color, I have a fascination with the clouds, stars, moon, etc. I've always wanted to fly ever since I was a little girl, so it must have something to do with that. Aside from that I have always had a passion for wolves. Something about them has always struck my interest and love ever since I was 4 or 5. In fact, I created a website to promote awareness n the misunderstood creatures and it's gone pretty far. I love to draw and color in Photoshop. I've been drawing almost as long as I have been playing video games. As for activities, I enjoy playing football, hockey, manhunt, and other crazy games with my buddies. My two best friends are Chris and Matt, I'm sure they will come up in almost all my posts XD. I love swimming, I'm part fish/otter XP. There are a lot more things that I enjoy, but I'm sure you're getting bored now so I'll shut up lol.
Dislikes: I'm usually a very cheerful person and it takes a lot for me to angry. However, I do have my dislikes and my pet peeves. The number one offender and number one on the top of my hate list would be, you guessed it, girls. Not all girls, but the girls that are really girly/snobby/bossy/etc. My BIGGEST pet peeve are girls that play Halo 3 on Xbox Live, only to get the guys to like them. I can't ******** stand it. Girls pretending to play Halo is a big no-no in my book. So please, if you don't know anything about Halo, or hardly ever play it, don't try telling me you like it XD. It's just like anything else when it comes to being a fan. Favorite band? You should know all the songs and lyrics. Like Halo? You should know the weapons, characters, maps, etc. It's simple really. Aside from those few things, I don't like illiterate people. I really don't see why it's so hard to type out the word "you" rather than posting just the letter "u." Not much I can do about it though.
Currently: As of now, I am attending college, majoring in Veterinary Technology. This major is a pain in the a** because it's so hard, however, I still love it. I've been working in an animal hospital for 2 years now, which I absolutely love.

 ...we'll say
Family: Felidae
Order: Carnivora
Class: Mammalia

Lifespan: 25 years, aprox.
Diet: Medium-sized ungulates
Height: 5ft (Females). 5.5ft. (Males)
Weight: 400-600 pounds (Males). 350-470 pounds (Females) H a b i t a t
Common Lion: Grassy plain/Desert/Riverside/Savannah/Valley
Angelic Lions: Mountain
Demonic Lions: Dense woodland
Lunar Lions: Ocean
Solar Lions: Meadows
WaterLions: Lakes and rivers
Fire Lions: DesertA b o u t
The Pride Lands is a home to many unique lions, big, small, green, or blue, they are all loved the same. This was the first Breedable shop I stumbled across and I am glad I stuck to it. I love the theme and purpose to the breedables and I hope it never changes.
These lions (and hyena) mean a lot to me and I wouldn't trade them for all the riches on Gaia. Everyone single one is different and they have different species as well, not just normal lions. There are angelic, demonic, solar, and lunar, and more to come its amazing. The different parts on their body are there for a purpose and all play a role in how the lion acts and lives. For example the flakes sprouting from behind their ears, they are used to detect weather changes, movement, etc. And females have longer ones because they are more likely to join in during hunts. Each lion has its own personality, likes, and dislikes. Its almost as if they were real.
I see people stop by during a flatsale or right before it is going to start, win a lion for the look of their signature, and never come back to post again. That is what makes me aggravated and a little sad as well. The lions are meant to be role played and I wish everyone did. Its like a real pet, if you don't have time to feed for it and take care of it, then don't get one. Same with these guys, they need to make friends, socialize with one another and find a place in the Pride Lands where they belong. Every lion has a purpose and when people don't role play them, it takes that purpose away.
Every one of my lions and hyenas will have a spot to call their own in this journal. I will give past stages like their infant stage, cub, teen, etc. If they have any cubs, the cubs will be posted underneath everything else along with that lion's mate. If a lion has a pride, that too will have a section in the lion's post explaining what the pride is about and a link to the pride's thread. Reserved posts will be used for lion's or hyenas I may own later on in my Gaia life and time with The Pride Lands.
As you continue to read on about my lions, the hyenas and everyone else's journal you will realize how important they are in our Gaia life. They are more than just a pet, they are a best friend, a companion and nothing can change that.

 'Cause I would die for you...Here I will be posting upcoming customs or breeding ideas. Please do not take any of the custom thoughts from this journal! I will rip you apart if you steal the ideas I've worked so hard in creating.
The Halo Hoard . This is a never-ending quest for lions based off of my favorite video game; Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3. Some may be cosplays, but most are ideas that I have formed based around a certain object or map. This is one of my most prized concepts and I have a role playing plot all ready for them.
Guilty Spark . though this is a cosplay that I cannot control, he may or may not be in the Halo event that Yak is supposivley doing. I have yet to come up with designs or colors for him.
Ghost . hopefully will get him soon. He has already been thought out in my head, I just need to get a form down for him.
Sword . Ushi is supposed to be working on a lioness based off of the energy sword. It's already in progress, so don't even think about it.
Needler . Work in progress
Maps . Oh the never-ending maps! I wish to have all of them customed someday, but that's crazy XD!
Weapons . Some down, some to go!
Sky Lions . Any regular in Pride Lands can tell you about how much I love lions based off of the sky. I probably have every combination imaginable XD! But yes, I wants moooree! >DC u s t o m .. F o r m sName: Gyha 'Owsotee
