This is very much a work in progress as you can see. Just scrolling through, it's rather... blank. xD;
Just to put it out there right away, this pride is based on the community structure of Hogwarts, we opted not to include the magical aspect, but we stuck to the houses, which were renamed in latin. If you read through, it'll become much clearer.
Suggestions are always welcome.
Both myself and Seaki are working on this pride together feel free to talk to either of us. We're availible through PM or AIM. (Or screen names will be located at the bottom of this post.)
Thank you, Cajanic, for letting us steal the Suka'Fumo concept Layout.
Not everything is here yet but feel free to look and post. The history will be similar to what is actually in the HP books, minus magic. Over the next while more stuff will be added.

Outer Rim: C1C1C1
'Horizon' Color 1: C8A9EA
'Horizon' Color 2: DADADA
Rank Stroke: 9A9A9A
Cert Background:
Willow tree by a lake. Image Coming Soon
Symbol:
Coraggio: Lion
Fideliaitis: Genet
Consillio: Avian
Dolosus: Snake
Location:
Synopsis: Legio is loosly based off of the hogwarts structure and was made to fit that of a lion pride. Rivalry is obviously not really an issue within the pride as everything needs to be connected to work properly. You really don't need to know much about the Harry Potter series, or even like it, to join. We do ask that you respect anyones love for the series, be it book or movie.
The house structure changed a little, though there are still four houses. Each represents a sort of... field of study, so to speak and the sorting is based on what the creature would be best at.
Anyhow. All 'regular' SoA are accepted as full on memebers, familars are used as well... familiarts and will help the 'regular' SoA. Gender and Species doesn't matter to hold a rank.
Characters do not have to be based off of anyone in the Harry Potter series, so don't feel obligated to get one based off of Harry Potter or one of the other characters.

Cubs: Cubs are to be educated about all houses of the pride. They will live in their parents house with them until they reach the age of juveniles. Cubs are educated by the Philologus who are responsible for taking the cubs to each house so they can see what the other houses are like and what all the jobs of the pride are. The Sortitus also informs them of the different houses. All cubs are viewed as wonderful, even if they resulted from a fling or and outer-pride breeding.
Juves: When cubs reach this stage they will be the time in which they are placed in the house that will be their permanent house. This transitions is decided by the owner of the cub. Usually the sorting is done through an RP with the Sortitus as a group, but it is decided by the owner.
New Members: New Members are always welcome. They will be brought into the pride by the Coadunatio. For the first while of their stay they will be allowed to drift between houses, after three months they will be have to be sorted into a house which they will permanently reside in. They may ask for the sorting ceremony to occur before the three months are up though if they wish. The Sortitus and Philologus will basically run through the pride information the same as they give the cubs.
Leaving the Pride: While members of the pride, particularly those who reside in the Fidelitatis House are allowed and at times even encouraged to leave the pride for short periods of time, once someone permanently leaves they would have to come back and speak to the leader of their house to explain why the believe they should be allowed back into the pride once they have already turned their back on it. Some houses take disloyalty harshly, so think carefully.
Visitors: Visitors are allowed but will be closely guarded and watched by the Coadunatio during their entire visit and may be asked to stay to the outer limits of the pride lands.
Familiars: Familiars are an option that a juvenile receives when they get sorted. If they chose they may get a familiar to call their own. This will be their companion for life. Most juves will obtain familiars upon sorting or soon after. Mated familiars will often allow their young to bond to Juveniles in the pride.
Non-Lions/Hybrids: This is an equal opportunity pride. All major species (Lions, Leopards, Cheetahs, Wild Dogs, Hyenes, and Hybrids) are seen as equal. All ranks are open to every species.
Death: Normally, death would be a sad occasion, but the passing of life is not viewed as a bad thing. The 'Celebration of Life' is held whenever a death occurs within the pride. SEE Celebration of Life

 ALL RANKS MAY BE HELD BY ANY SPECIES OR SEX
 The following ranks are general and don't belong to any set house.
Regalis (Head Master/Mistress): The up most leader of the pride... they are not involved in the day to day running of each house, they are there to insure the smooth operation of the entire pride and only get involved in a house hold if it is an extreme cases. They are generally unbiased and have a sense of leadership. When everything is running smoothly they can be seen walking throughout the houses. The Regalis deals with outer-pride relationships and treaties. The next Regalis is normally chosen by the Regalis or the Sortitus, since the Consuasor may not always become the next Regalis.
Consuasor (Deputy Headmaster/mistress): The right hand man (or women) to the Regalis. They are there to keep the Regalis informed of issues within the pride. If there are issues that a pride member feels needs the Regalis' attention must first apply through the Consuasor. Small issues go through the consuasor first before getting to the Regalis, f it can be solved by them. They are kindly, and unlike the Regalis or Sortitus, they come from any of the four houses, normally chosen for leadership and problem solving abilities. They are appointed by the Regalis.
Sortitus (Sorting Hat): *Must be a Seer* The Sortitus is the one who leads the Sorting Ceremony. The Sortitus is thought of as to have special abilities to be able to see where a members belong best. They are valued greatly within the pride and will usually walk trhough the houses to chat with the children. The Sortitus's second job is to help the cubs make an unbiased choice if s/he cannot make a clear descision.
'Novus' (Youth): Despite having a 'general' rank, the cub stays with his/her parents until they become juves. Cubs are very important as they are the future. They take time to stay in every house to see the individual runnings of each. They're usually taken by their parents or the Sortitus to take them through the entire pride. They are given the basic teaching and outlines of each job. However, the most important is playing - cubs are urged to play because once they are sorted, time play goes down by a lot. After all, the cubs will be the future of the pride.
Regius (Head of House): The Regius is the leader of the house he or she resides in. They are responsible for over seeing their houses activities and keep everything in order.

The Cuius will help gather information on problems and will keep the Regius up to par with the happenings of the house. They will, more often then the Regius, go to the Regalis or Consuasor if they run low on supplies of if there is a problem within the house that cannot be solved. Despite being the mate of the Regius, they should have a sharp mind, for they also have to inform the Sortitus of a birth soon after it happens.
Procer (Prefect): The heir to the Regius. The heir is not necessarily the biological child of the Regius as the biological children may be sorted into other houses. The Regius reserves the right to choose who is their heir. An heir is named when he or she is after they have been sorted.

Hunters bring back the food for the entire pride to feast, be it fish, land-prey or avian.

At the moment Joining is completely open. We are looking for almost every rank. If you are interested please post the provided forms.
We might be a little picky about the leadership positions just because they are going to be very important in the operation of the pride and we want to know this person is going to be in for the long run.
If you would like to do a 'Joining RP,' the Regalis is currently unavailible, you may always speak to the Sortitus about joining.
Check the members list for limited roles, but really, we need members, and we're working on fleshing this out to make it more appealing.
On Concepts: We do accept concepts currently, but the funds will fall mostly on you. Essi and Seaki will evenually make a concept fund but we both currently don't have the gold to do so.
