Personality:[/b] Hamali is the one that looks most like his father, causing the supersititous Busare pride regard him with scorn. The laws of thier pride would not allow them to kill a cub, they were required to raise him, thus his name means "burden." Years of this treatment have made Hamali a rather angry lion. He has a short temper and it isn't difficult to goad him into a fight. Whereas Kivuli seemed to be able to withdraw into himself to deal with the hatred of others, Hamali is unable to. Despite this, he yearns for the approval of the pride and trains with the utmost intensity. Due to nearly dying in the nearby waters of his coastal pride, Hamali has a terrible fear of water.

History:[/b] Hamali is the last born of three surviving cubs born of the pride Princesss Jua and the Ghost Lion Kivuli. His goal is to make himself a hero in the eyes of the pride by helping to kill the one they hate most: his own father. But his vendetta against Kivuli is also personal, as the Busare Pride taught each cub to hate Kivuli from day one for murdering their mother, the beloved Princess of the pride. He has to train in secret however, because the pride thinks he's worthless they would not even expend the effort to train him. He learns under the guidance of his sister. [/center]

Nyota



Species:

[/b] Lion
Gender:[/b] Male
Age:[/b] Young Adult
Pride or Clan:[/b] Busare
Rank:[/b] Heir
Parents/Player(s):[/b] Kivuli and Jua (deceased) / Kai
Siblings/Player(s):[/b] Hamali and Mahiri / Kai and Narifia
Mate/Player:[/b] None / N/A
Offspring/Player(s):[/b] None / N/A
Personality:[/b] Nyota can be an arrogant young lion. The pride treated him like royalty from the day he was born. He was named "star," because of the marking on his forehead and because he was the star or the pride. They adore him and everything is handed to him, which has caused him to become extremely snobbish and self-centred. This attitude and Hamali's short temper means that the two don't get along very well. Nyota does have one particular source of embarassment: he has almost no mane. He feels that the pride will never accept him as a true king because of this, and decides to help in the effort to kill his father to gain their admiration.

History:[/b] Nyota was firstborn of the three surviving cubs. With the Princess dead and the current heir missing, he was named the next heir to the throne. He became the favorite of his grandfather King Hadhi, partly because he looked so much like the Princess they lost. Unwilling to risk losing thier heir, Hadhi refused to allow Nyota to be trained to avenge his mother, and thus he trains in secret with his sister.

Tunza



Species:

[/b] Lion
Gender:[/b] Male
Age:[/b] Young Adult
Pride or Clan:[/b] Busare
Rank:[/b] Member
Parents/Player(s):[/b] Zengea and Unknown / Kai
Siblings/Player(s):[/b] Byron / Narifia
Mate/Player:[/b] None / N/A
Offspring/Player(s):[/b] None / N/A
Personality:[/b] Tunza seemed to be destined to be an assassin. His build allows for an excellent balance between strength and speed, he took easily to training, and he was extremely quick-witted in battle. To the dissapointment of everyone around him, Tunza doesn't want anything to do with fighting. and think it's silly for him to try and avenge siblings he never knew. Since he was raised and trained with Mahiri he also considers her his sister, but doesn't have much of a relationship with Nyota and outright despises Hamali. For the most part he has a gentle, nurturing personality, and loves nothing more than tending to the young ones of the pride. He often sneaks away from training to play with them, much to his family's chagrin. He struggles between his want for approval from his family and his want to follow his own heart and be himself.

History:[/b] After Jua's death, Tunza's elder brother and sister Ukali and Nuru, were put on trial for helping her murderer escape. Zengea's high status in the pride saved them from instant execution. They were banished instead, nobody knows if they're dead or alive. But King Hadhi had another stipulation in mind: Zengea's two sons would be raised to avenge the death of the Princess. Zengea agreed, for she also wanted revenge. She believed that the Ghost Lion had corrupted her children, and blamed him for thier banishment. So she trained her sons to kill Kivuli, along with Jua's female cub, whom Bashiri said showed the signs that she was meant to be an assassin.
