Name: Sombra
Owner: Velveteen Angel
Rank: Lockesh -> Howahkan
Personality: Sombra is a sneaky creature. Her name means Shadow and that's what she is. Silent and hard to spot without her wanting you to see her. She's clever, but not great with the whole 'social' aspect of life.
Why are they joining? She wants to be a gosh-darn ninja

bName: Varsha
Owner: R4gn0r0k IV
Rank: Lockesh
Personality: Varsha is a hybrid who is fiercely loyal. She cares for her family and fellow pride members. For the most part she stays quiet, unless she has to speak up. She allows her actions to speak for her.
Why are they joining?: She is joining to stay with her mother.

bName: Ankou
Owner: R4gn0r0k IV
Rank: Gacheru
Personality: Ankou is straight forward and to the point. She is always impatient and the first to cause a fight. For the most part she feels like the world revolves around her.
Why are they joining?: Her and Varsha were traveling together looking for a home. Since hybrids were welcomed, both decided it would be a perfect fit for them.

Woot! For Ankou I will have Vi'Jaya join her. And I would love a rp where a pride member invited them to the pride!

Name: Temitope

Owner: CaliWolfe
Rank: Gacheru
Personality:
Temi might not be the most social of cheetahs but he has a fierce loyalty to those he considers family. He'll go out of his way to make sure everyone is doing okay regularly, and if it isn't him personally doing so for whatever reason *coughs*becausehe'sanantisocialterd*coughs*- he'll make his familiar do it.
Why are they joining?: ninjaninjaninja

If they have one:
Familiar: Male, Vulture, Bamidele (I know it isn't one of the common familiars but so is it still okay?)
