Header by MiddyGlowAs a red moon rises over the African plains, strange shadows cover the land; deep, dark and dangerous.
You’ve gathered here from across the known lands, a strange motley of lions, all chasing the same rumour - that the ghost of lion lingers here, where the trees grow twisted and the earth cracks beneath your paws.
It’s far from anywhere any of them call home, a desolate place where the wind whistles and wails. An unfriendly land to travel.
But they’re here regardless, seeking... what? Adventure, mystery? A chance to put a ghost to rest? Or perhaps they just want to test their mettle, to prove they’re braver than the rest?
And so here you are: go on, introduce yourself.---- * GAME INFORMATION *This is a Choose Your Own Adventure roleplay event! Signs ups begin on the 11th and 12th and then a new scenario will begin every 24 hours. There are 7 scenarios. Your lion has joined a group investigating the rumour of a ghostly apparition, to enter, please post an intro RP including a picture of your character! Everyone will begin the CYOA with 15 confidence points, please keep track of your CP points with every post. Each choice you make, will either be a neutral or negative, potentially losing you points. If you reach 0, you succumb to fear and your lion runs home! Keep in mind, sometimes there are no right answers in this CYOA. Some are just worse than others. You will get a ticket for entering the event and one for every scenario you survive, with the final person (or the person with the most confidence points left over if there are multiple, and then a tiebreaker roll if that’s tied!) getting first pick of the prizes. The rest will be raffled off to all entrants! If you miss a day, you can keep playing and lose 5 CP but you don’t get tickets for days missed and cannot be the last one standing. Any lion can enter regardless of their pride! Feel free to roleplay amongst yourself in between rounds. If you have any further questions, please reach out to Ruriska on discord or the main thread! This game once completed counts as 2 RP points!

 Makali had heard of some sort of apparition stalking about the lands. One that apparently wasn't her. She snorted at the thought, tail lashing as she padded towards where the group was supposed to meet up. She glanced around, seeing she was the first one here and let out a huff of air. "Don't tell me everyone's chickened out already." she half laughed to herself, turning her head so that her good eye made sure to catch every angle before she grunted, making herself comfortable beneath a gnarled tree whose leaves had all fallen, leaving the branches to reach towards the sky like twisted monkey fingers.

Why did she decide to do this? She wasn't a very brave lioness but she was very curious. She had heard whispers and rumours about the ghost lion that prowled the area and that there was a group assembling to investigate. Part of her hoped to find it, but part of her hoped it was all just an old lion's tale. She approached the meeting area, staying to the shadows as best she could. Her bright pink coat wasn't very easy to hide but she could at least try not to be too noticeable while staying to the dark areas. She caught sight of a blue lioness with a collar and scar over her right eye. She looked pretty tough. Maybe she should go say hello. She heard the lioness speaking but must have been to herself as she didn't see anyone else nearby. She decided to make herself known. "Nope, not chicken, just late I suppose," she said shyly as she approached and stepped out of the shadow. "I do hope there will be more to join us. I'm Chayse. Nice to meet you." Fea Line Tagging since she spoke to Makali directly.

 A dark male lion could be seen as a speck that slowly grew until that normal size in everyone's view. He was neither early nor late and he did not speak to the two females that had already gathered. He would not speak to them unless addressed directly, chatter was a waste of breath. He was long and lean, almost underfed and his footfalls were soft as kid suede. He glanced around once more to see if any others were coming, before sitting upon a clear spot of ground. Waiting. But he would not wait for long; if no others arrived soon he would head off on his own. He had his own reasons to be here and they weren't all about some silly superstitious lion's visions of... something. Honestly. (( My lion's name is Ananse ))

 Nyama was a butcher of the Night Plains pride, which usually meant that he went out on a hunt with a Siren. However, sometimes, he went out of his way to prove his abilities to the pride in a different way. Gathering intel as a scout and finding out about the goings ons of rogues in the area and, potentially, other prides, was something that could be of great use to the Night Master and Mistress. Thus, he'd left to join this gathering. He offered a nod to the three that had gathered before him. With him joining, they were an evenly matched group: two lions and two lionesses. Would more join in the fun, or was this their entire group? Only time would tell. " Greetings." He spoke to the others. " My name is Nyama. What names may I call each of you?" He asked them, his dark gaze moving from one cat to the next.

Chayse sat with her paws drawn close to her body, watching as the two lions arrived. She hadn't expected this to be a friendly gathering, so when the darkest lean male arrived and hadn't spoken, she wasn't offended. When the larger male arrived and greeted them, she felt it only polite to return the gesture. "My name is Chayse," she answered him with a light smile. "Hello."

 Hiro would arrive to the dark and dreary scene. Back home, he had a reputation of being brave, someone with leadership qualities that inspired others. Here...he would hope to be able to find his way through whatever trials and tribulations he would encounter. He was sure he was in for an experience with personal growth involved. He could see a group of lions up ahead and trailed up to them, offering a small smile greeting the other lions. "Oh...others are here already? Greetings. I am known as Hiro."

 Kanuni looked around and saw an already gathered group of lions as she approached. As a sentry for the Outlands, she felt compelled to come see what the rumors were about, most especially to see if there was anything she could bring back to her pride. She saw Makali from a distance and nodded to her. Not quite sure if she would acknowledge her back. The others she glanced around at, but could see that they were being guarded. She agreed that not letting the others know too much information could work in her favor. Anything she was able to bring back would be a bonus as the weather in her homeland had been especially dry the past few seasons. She greeted the others with a curt 'hello'. Though she left it at that and quietly sat down to wait.

"Ananse," the slender male rumbled as a fifth and sixth lion approached. "My name is Ananse."
(Just wanted to get that in before the first scenario)

SCENARIO 1 - INTO THE MISTThe journey begins at a quick trot, mostly eager paws heading out into the unknown. The red moon and the strange trees cast unsettling shadows across the earth that seem to stretch out, grasping at the travellers. But it’s just shadows, surely nothing to spook at. There’s an eerie silence to this land, as if nothing lives there, not even the usual sound of insects in the night. Soon a thick mist rolls in from nowhere, blurring everything in a pale haze. You can no longer see the sky and the forms of your fellow lions are harder to see. Other strange shapes move just out of focus, making strange formations that you can’t quite make out. What do you do? Quote: A) Move quickly through the mist, hoping to reach the other side. B) Stay still and wait for it to clear. C) Call out to the strange forms in the mist. Please make your choice clear in bold at the top of your post! You have 24 hours. Feel free to continue RPing after your selection.

Ananse chooses CAnanse began his journey at a fast walk and then a slow lope. He never broke into a run; it's difficult to take in all the scenery at a run. He glanced at the other lions every now again as his eyes swept into the quickly rolling fog. His companions became obscured by the mist, and new shapes formed out at the edges of his vision. What or who were these shapes? It was too difficult to tell. He snarled softly then belted out a big roar. "Who's there? Show yourselves!"

B) Stay still and wait for it to clear.Makali had noticed the bright pink lioness as she drew closer, her fur as vibrant as Makali's own and not easy to hide. She turned her head so her good eye caught most of the other's movements before nodding at the greeting, a slight smirk on her muzzle. "Makali." she simply said, indicating with her tail tip to herself. Before she could agree on more joining, however, more did indeed join. She eyed the dark lion who looked like he had crashed through a whole spider's lair followed by a rather blood red lion. After followed a happy bright looking lion. Pridelander no doubt. She took them all in with her good eye. She huffed slightly at having to repeat her own name. "Makali." she offered to the males and female that had sneaked in. She didn't have time to linger on any more greetings as it seemed the group was already now moving into action. She pushed ahead, not in an attempted to be a leader, but more so out of slight impatience. She wanted to see what all this fuss was about and so far all she saw was fog playing tricks on the eyes. She smirked. "I am not falling for these tricks." she lashed her tail, seeing who all had followed from the group of lions. She paused in her stride, head held high as one of the males called out to the 'shadows'. She, however, chose to stand still, keeping her good eye locked and focused, waiting for the wind to roll the fog away.

Hiro chooses option 3. Confidence points: 15/15
As the mist rolls in, Hiro finds himself surrounded and troubled. He doesn't think it is wise to run off in a random direction in an area he's never been in and cannot see, and he isn't the type to stand still either. He finds himself striking a confident pose and shouting out, "Who's there? I've never been afraid of a good time." He grins out, baring his canines. He stares into the mist, trying to make a solid form out of the strange distortions.
