I'm a Merc!

Name: Tuli'Kifo
Desired Rank: Assassin
Brief Personality: Tuli is a quiet girl who prefers to keep to herself and isn't a fan of drama. She likes having a goal in mind and hyper focuses on the details about said goal, until she is able accomplish it. She can be a little awkward at times, but when on the job she is as serious as they come. She hasn't really had the time to discover herself or her hopes and dreams for the future, as her life before had been a tailspin of turmoil and political drama.
Brief History: An outcast from her birth pride for having killed another member. She had been part of a political coo that had sought to shift the pride's power structure by killing off corrupted officials, but the movement failed, and she was sent into exile as a scapegoat for everyone involved. She hopes the Mercs can utilize her skills and is thankful that they welcome someone with her history.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Ellika
Desired Rank: Mercenary
Brief Personality: Fierce, feisty, and unapologetic, Ellika is a spicy Stormborn. She's got a sharp tongue to match her claws and teeth and she won't hold back with any of the above. She loves a good challenge and never backs down from a fight, occasionally to her own determent. While having the drive to see something through to the end is an admirable quality, it can also be Ellika's biggest downfall. She doesn't take defeat well and has proclaimed on many occasions that she'd rather die than lose.
Brief History: Ellika and Calder are previous Stormborn who set out to make their own way. They are both battle-savvy and eager to continue their physical ways, so a pride that values strength and fighting prowess would be ideal for them.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Calder
Desired Rank: Mercenary
Brief Personality: A warrior through and through, Calder loves to fight. He gets a thrill from battle that nothing else can compare to and he's always seeking out a scuffle which can sometimes lead to him biting off more than he can chew. He takes every loss as a learning experience, though, and rarely gets down about a defeat. Calder isn't terribly concerned with rank and has a healthy respect for females no matter the path in life they choose and his only ambition is to become the greatest warrior the Stormborn has ever seen. Calder is eager to serve and is more than willing to lead the charge, but he doesn't quite have the mindset of a leader. He may never make Captain, but you can bet every Captain out there is going to want him in their band of Reavers. His visions manifest after a fight, but they are visions of the past - specifically of the battle itself. It allows him to see where he went wrong or what went right and he learns from the visions as much as the experience of the battle. He's usually fairly tired after a fight and the visions drain him that much more, but a nap and a good meal make him right as rain again.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Don'zaraasir
Desired Rank: Mercenary
Brief Personality: Brutal and cold-hearted, Don understands and respects strength above all else. He lives to fight and to test his mettle against others in battle. He is a brute of a lion, but the true danger lies behind his sharp mind and calculating demeanor. It was those traits that had allowed him to lead many successful vikings as a captain during his time with the stormborn. He's grown somewhat jaded over the years, and no longer holds back saying what he thinks for the sake of 'civility'. Likewise, he disagreed heavily with the idea of females no longer being held to the same standards as males and feels his former pride had crippled itself by setting limitations on previously capable fighters. Though he hates to admit it, he's lost his home and his purpose in life by leaving the stormborn, and it's slowly been driving him into a deep depression that he can't seem to shake.
Brief History: A former stormborn captain, he left his previous pride after feeling their ideals no longer aligned with his own. A small gathering of fellow stormborn had followed him into the rogue lands, each for reasons of their own, and though some of them had wandered off, a small group remained at his side. Now he's brought them to the border of the Tani'Ajiri, where he feels they could make a suitable home and fresh start in a new pride.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Thokk
Desired Rank: Bard
Brief Personality: Manipulative and cruel, Thokk just wants to see the world burn. She’s a bitter female who has spent most of her life struggling to get out of her mother’s shadow. She doesn’t care for personal attachments, and sees no value in love or family relations. She may act friendly or helpful on occasion, but rest assured her motives are always her own.
Brief History: A former priestess of the stormborn, she has forsaken that life in favor of personal freedom. She shares a brief romantic history with Don, but the two together only seemed to drag out the worst in each other. She doesn’t hate him, and sometimes she misses the closeness they once shared, but she does her best to bury any personal feelings for him that still linger. For now, she’s happy to play the part of an eager recruit to the Mercs, until she can get a better feel for how their power structure works. Thokk has always been attracted to power, and she aims on seizing any and all opportunities in this new pride.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Deyri-bein
Desired Rank: Mercenary
Brief Personality: Impulsive and a fierce combatant, Dreyri-bein lives and breathes combat. Nothing, absolutely nothing, thrills her more then the feeling of fighting on the battlefield. Quick to anger, she’ll fly into a rage and throw down with anyone who dares to belittle or demean her or her fellow females.
Brief History: A former stormborn reaver, she made a swift exit from the pride after it was declared females could no longer be reavers. Completely gutted over the fact that she would no longer be able to fight like she once had under captain Don, she left her old home for good. A god-born seer, she had a vision of her former captain leaving the pride as well so she made it her mission to meet up with him again in the rogue lands. She has not left his side since.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Magnus
Desired Rank: Guard
Brief Personality: An older male who was once quite the handsome and rowdy viking reaver. Though still large and strong, his body has grown soft and he's not as foolhardy as he had been in youth. Magnus is a happy oaf of a lion who enjoys the pleasures of life and is more than capable of throwing his weight around when he needs to.
Brief History: Magnus and his mate, Gala, are former stormborn who have grown restless in their older age. They love their old home but feel as though it was time to start a new adventure together. Despite their age, Magnus and Gala feel many years younger now that they've shaken off the dust of their old comfortable life and are eager to start anew.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Gala
Desired Rank: Artisan
Brief Personality: Gala loves to sing. When she's happy, when she's sad, when she feels nothing at all. Music is in her blood, and she often uses song and melody to express herself in little ways. She can be a little dramatic at times as she tends to overthink things, but truly she is a loving female at heart strives to bring warmth and tenderness to those in her life.
Brief History: A former freeborn of the stormborn, she and her husband, Magnus, have made the decision to start a new adventure together. She loves her old pride, but feels as though she has grown lazy and uninspired in their former comfortable lifestyle. Gala looks forward to making a name for herself as an artisan while they settle into their new home.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Johari
Desired Rank: Ranger
Brief Personality: Johari is a daring lioness who has inherited her mother's thirst for personal freedom, and her father's absolute love of combat. She believes the strong have a responsibility to use their strength to help those closest to them, and she certainly does not shy away from a challenge. She's young and full of life, eagerly waiting to test her mettle against those who also live and breathe battle.
Brief History: The daughter of Don'zaraasir and Thokk, and the sole product of the brief romance those two shared. Johari, loves her parents, but can't help putting distance between herself and their toxic behaviors. She's grown up in the rogue lands and knows very little of her parent's former pride, or the turmoil that was left behind. She values freedom and loves to fight, so she's eager to join with the Mercs and to truly show her parents what she's capable of once out from under their influence.

I'm a Merc!

Name: Ardha Candra
Desired Rank: Bard
Brief Personality: Ardha Candra ( HalfMoon ) is a social butterfly, and most are surprised by her very odd accent. Her boisterous personality makes her a magnet in social gatherings. A smile so genuine, but you don't quite remember what was said. Sometimes due to that smile, you don't even realize how much information you actually said. She is good with words and expressing herself which helps her navigate how to get out of situations and how to tip things in her favor.
Brief History: She was a cheetah rescued by humans as a teen. Was once apart of the black market as exotic cargo because of this her want to connect is very high but this was also the way she got rescued, using other animals and connecting with them so she got in front of the right humans so she could get free. Once freed- She was quite confused on how distant everyone is and thus she wanted and yearned for community. She doesn't remember her mom or dad but she doesn't feel like she missed out on anything because of the other exotic animals that helped raise her, thus the accent.
