[OOC] Joining, Member Updates & Naming Thread

[KizingoZaa II]

NOTE: Please post CERTS, not uncerts! For new members, if you could post your cert here once you get it that'd be nice!

If you're interested in having your character join the Kizingo'zaa, make sure you've read through (and understand) all the information pages! The Kizi have very specific thoughts on certain things and actions, and they are developing into a rather tight-knit pride that emphasizes keeping themselves safe through secrecy. Your SoA must be able and willing to comply to both the cultural requirements and the rules of the pride to join!

If you have questions, you can direct them to Thalion or ShinosBee. Once you're certain that you understand and are OK with having a lion played in compliance to this culture, please fill out the form and post it in this thread. We'll post approval or denial once we've reached a decision.

We're going to attempt (it's okay, you can laugh) to keep the memberlist updated - you know, once we actually get it in order to begin with. So, if your member grows, changes ranks, dies, leaves, has a litter of cubs or ANYTHING ELSE that you know will affect this list - please post it. We even have a couple of handy dandy little forms!

**Note for family updates: We have now included a post for future gypsy names. These are the names your cubs should take once they are grown that they will use with visiting rogues and outsiders. Very few people remember to have their cubs renamed and we are trying to change that. If you're submitting a 'Hi, we had cubs form', then MAKE SURE that the owners of those cubs go ahead and pick BOTH of the names for the cub - baby name and permanent name.

[Yin-Bug]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Name: Miw-Sher (I will keep her name as it is <3 )
Owner: Yin-bug
Gender: Female
Muse: The Moon
Mate: Rowtag (Mate in progress; He also is joining)
Personality: Miw is a little childish and always has been her entire life. She likes to play, from physical games (like tag and playing in the mud) to playing pretend. She can be tricky at times, mostly when she wants something. She tends to make up stories some times, she occasionally uses this as a tactic to get what she wants and at times to have some fun with anyone who doesn't want to play. Generally though she is a sweet lioness who puts others first. She is friendly and bright and likes to bring a smile to anyone's face if she can. She likes the night and how calm it usually is. If you're going to find her it's during the night. She has always been seen as a little strange but doesn't mind it.
Image: Miw Cert
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Miw has heard about the pride because one of her sister's is part of it. She was on her way to join because of that when she ran into Rowtag. She otherwise loves the idea of their peaceful ways and not judging another.
What rank would you want for them? Minder  

[Kimaria]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Name: Rowtag (no change)
Owner: Kimaria
Gender: Male
Muse: Sand
Mate: Miw-Sher (this is an in-progress romance)
Personality: Rowtag is a little unhinged due to past events in his life. Easily confused and disorientated, he does possess a Firekin's temper, though recent injuries means that he's not much of a fighter any more. Quick to lash out but just as quick to settle, he's not the easiest lion to get on with. Thankfully, his time with Miw-Sher has mellowed him somewhat and he's growing used to being around others again.
Image: Cert
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Rowtag is an exiled Firekin for his part in aiding rogues into the lands to cause trouble (lots of misunderstandings etc...). He's still deeply grieving his mistakes and has been left rather mind-addled from the trauma. Being around others that are confused and 'insane' would help him feel not so 'odd' or 'out of place'.
What rank would you want for them? Watcher  

[ShinosBee]

UPDATED TO HERE!  

[Mimsey]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Name: Mbweha
Owner: Mimsey
Gender: Female
Gypsy name: White Fox
Mate: None
Personality: Intelligent, stoic, flirtatious
Image: [Full]
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Mbweha is naturally attracted to political unrest, particularly if she thinks she can find a foothold somewhere. She's a former "princess" [in name only] who has spent most of her life on the road, tricking men with her beauty in attempts to raise up in status. It's never occurred to her that maybe her true nature is the 'gypsy', the life she has been living, and not the princess she's tried desperately to become.

What rank would you want for them? Gypsy

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Name: Petra
Owner: Mimsey
Gender: Female
Gypsy name: Phoenix [or just Red if that's too specific]
Mate: None
Personality: Wild, ambitious, impulsive, youthful
Image: [Full]
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: A former sacrifice and slave to the Mizimu, Petra spent her life pining for the freedom to choose her own path in life. Her spirit was broken when she was forced to surrender during the uprising. But when a chance at freedom appeared, Petra decided to completely abandon her old life once more and strike out on her own...this time never looking back.

Although Petra might have had a rough start, she's still very much a young, naive lioness. She's bold and loud, and the free life of the K'Z will suit her impulsive nature. She's never really experienced life in a 'normal' sense, even if the life of a gypsy is far from your average existence. She's particularly keen about the secrecy part, as her own identity will be something she'd want to keep a secret.

Keeping together as a group, and offering her the freedom she's always wanted will make a very loyal member out of Petra.

What rank would you want for them? Thief or patron  

[ShinosBee]

All accepted up to here! <3 Those two look like a perfect fit, Mims. You're welcome to do a JRP for them, or wait and we'll do a mass-joining RP for anyone coming in during the meta. Your call!  

[Mimsey]

Awesooome! Will do whichever comes first.

As a question for certing- is the gypsy name going to be a subportion on the cert?  

[ShinosBee]

We aren't sure if the gypsy name will be in swahili and replace the 'true name', as the name change went in the old days, or if it will be a subportion and in english yet. We intend to poll the people on that in the first meta RP, and see what y'all want!
