Species: This pride is Lion Only! There are very rare exceptions. The non-lion must be brought before the monarchy and petition them for membership. These members must be sponsored by a lion member. OOCly, it must be approved by Seaki, and ICly, it must be RPed.
tl;dr: Lions-Only, Non-lions rare with a JRP.
Appearance: There are no pridal restrictions on colors, and no cultural biases against any appearances. This does not stop personal biases, however!
Familiars: All familiars are welcome into the pride, but they must be sponsored by a non-familiar species (i.e they must be bonded).
Religion: The pride is not specific to a religion, however they are theistic. Any gods that seem fitting for themselves they adopt as a whole pride but individual members may prefer a specific god. Particularly religious members become part of the Clergy and tell stories of the gods. Members of Clergy may act as advisers to individuals of the public.
Current Gods:
Family Life This pride is made up of dozens of harems. They each have a head of harem, which only serves as a political face for the family. Harems are treated equally for the most part, and having more mates is not seen as a status symbol in terms of power, but in terms of how well a harem leader can take care of their family. Families in Likno are eclectic and varied, and may include cubs adopted into a harem family.
Read about how to start a harem here: Harem Creation
See a list of families here: Harems
Hunting: There are no specific hunters within a pride. Families are expected to take care of their own. Single members may be adopted or hosted by a family until they can create on of their own.
Sponsorship & Adoption: Adoption is completely normal in this pride. Members may adopt orphans or other harems or from out in the roguelands, or take on cubs from a fling that the harem leader did not participate in.
In the case of adult joining members, they must either be part of a harem as they join or find a family to host them until they create their own family. The sponsor harem aids them in the same way that they would aid any of their children.If a lion already has a blood relative in the pride with an established harem, they will be sponsored in that harem unless there is conflicting interests.
Festivals/Ceremonies go here.

After her birth pride disbanded, founding Monarch Na'ila (a female used to being pampered and cared for) suddenly had to face the harshness of the rogue lands. Struggling to find her own inner strength, she realised that the rogue lands was not safe for her. Gathering people of a similar mind, she created the Likno Tis Zois. Born of a female's desire for equality between genders and sexualities, with every member of the pride pulling their own weight. It was not about servitude, but protection and safety. She incorporated her birth pride's tradition of keeping harems, with new twists that placed people on more equal grounds and created an inclusive pride for those with more than one love.
Some time has passed, and Na'ila has decided to step down and retire now that the pride is beginning to see growth. She was not cut out to lead a high life as she had. Instead, a new Monarch - one of her young granddaughters - has taken her place.
 Currently...
Metis is young, but determined to be an even better leader than her grandparents. She is working towards changes that were left over from the birth of the pride to make them better. How the pride will feel about this is anyone's guess.

The law system was put into place by the first monarch Na'ila, to prevent any disorder from occurring within the pride without some sort of system to punish wrong-doers. She wanted to prevent a collapse like her previous home, and devised some laws with the aid of the lawspeakers with the intention of adjusting rules and laws as needed.
Criminal Trials: Should a law be broken by a citizen of the lands, they are brought before the Monarch, The Council, and Lawspeakers. They are allowed to defend their actions and are provided with aid in doing so. Those found guilty are given a punishment fit for their crime, or judged to have not committed one.
Civil Trials: Occasionally, a problem between harems cannot be solved without fighting or bloodshed, so an unbiased thirdparty in the form of a lawspeaker is brought in to mediate and decide on a solution.
Prisoners: Though rare, occasionally the pride takes prisoners. A citizen can never be a prisoner, though they can be a servant. Prisoners are those who are non-members that commit a crime against a member. Once their sentence is up, they may be offered membership depending the the severity of their crime. Prisoners will always be hosted by a Lawspeaker's harem.
Servitude: If a member of the pride commits a crime against another member, they are usually made to serve the other pride's family. After a set amount of time, determined by a trial, they are allowed to return to their own harem.
Freedom: Once a punishment has been completed, they are completely set free and may return to their family. In the case of a prisoner, they are offered full membership of the pride if they were well behaved. Prisoners are given a transitional period and live with a sponsor family until they find their own harem. They are most often placed with a family that contains a member of the clergy.
Alternative Punishments Severe crimes may cause the pride to split a harem and/or remove the offending member from the pride's lands.
Laws
Assault: Infighting is strongly discouraged within the pride. Most often, these are civil trials and can be handled easily with a lawspeaker. Serious injury brings it up to a criminal offense.
Abuse: any form of abuse is not tolerated within the pride and it is immediately a criminal offense. Abuse is described as physically, emotionally, and mentally harming ones own harem and family, including any citizens a family is hosting as a sponsor or is sponsoring them.
more soon
Proposing Laws: To propose a new law, any member of the pride may speak to a lawspeaker and petition a new law to come into effect. The final decision is made by the monarch.
To OOCly Suggest a Law, PM Seaki.
Previous Trials:
No crimes have been committed!

Mountains: The mountains sit at the northern most part of the pride. While this area isn't considered completely part of the lands, it is still a very important landmark in the prides. Since it sits to the north, time can be told by where the sun is along the ridge of the mountains.
Lake: The lake sits before the mountains. A river from the tops of the mountains filter down into the lake, which is inhabited by a variety of fish. Skilled hunters may also catch fish for their families. It's a great place to cool down in the hotter months.
Lakeshore: The lakeshore is often inhabited by prey creatures looking for a drink. While it is an easy place to hunt should someone be desperate, it is mostly a place to relax along the water's edge.
Grasslands: The grasslands take up a majority of the pride's lands. Most prey creatures and the pride spend their time out here as well. During the wet season, the grass is lush and green, but during the hotter months it starts to dull and only leave behind hardier grasses. This area is dotted with trees that help provide shade and plenty of hiding places for other creatures, including the pride.
Other: There is a forest to the east that may provide shade, but is not considered part of the pride.
