Which male: Vitiligo
Name: Sdar’shan (aka Shan)
Meaning: From ‘Sudarshan’ Hindi name meaning "seeing one's self correctly; right vision." In mythology, this is part of the name of a sharp-edged, spinning disc-like weapon--Sudarshan Chakra--belonging to Vishnu who used it to decapitate various wicked personalities.
Who's playing him: Tanakako
Desired rank: Warden
Personality: Astute and deeply grave, he takes his responsibilities and duties seriously. He is a warden in the pride and is thoroughly dedicated to his job. He is somewhat reclusive, in that he doesn’t often mingle with the pride in large gatherings but prefers to speak to a single lion at a time. He has few friends but those he has are very dear to him and are more like family than anything else. He speaks little, takes life far too seriously and perceives personal failure as the worst slight. He holds himself to such a high standard that he spends all his time either on the job or training on the sparring sands.
Unfortunately his appearance doesn’t entirely match his personality as he has the most fabulous hair. The thick, luxurious curls attract many a lioness and he has something of a fan club. While he dislikes the female attention immensely he is more embarrassed by his untameable curls than almost anything else.
Little bit of history: Ever since he was a cub his mane, then a curly tuft, has been the bane of his existence. Teased as a youngster for his cute, angelic look, Sdar’shan retaliated by being overtly masculine. He fought with everyone and everything he could, he trained constantly and became a deeply serious young adol. Anything that was considered frivolous only served to annoy him and push him into a more and more austere, reserved attitude. He arrived on the firekin’s boarder after hearing about their legendary prowess as warriors. Hoping to finally settle in a land where his fabulous hair wouldn’t be seen as more important that his fighting ability, he decided to join. Sdar’shan was recruited as a Warden after he had proven himself in the army as a soldier. While his fighting skills were as good as any firekin he possessed a far more subtle and solitary mindset than many. With no family to divide his loyalties he was chosen as an ideal candidate for the role. He accepted and has been performing his duties ever since. His naturally reserved attitude and temperament makes him perfectly suited for the job.
Which female: The Red Luchador
Name: Tamira
Meaning: It's the name of a Spice!
Who's playing her: Epine de Rose
Desired Rank: Waterseeker
Personality:
Tamira is a bit of a ditz, and seemingly devoid of all higher thought. Or at least that's how most will perceive her when they encounter her given her apparent inclination to remain oblivious to everything. Truthfully, she isn't stupid, but she certainly lacks a considerable amount of awareness to the hazards in her surroundings. She's well known for being extremely lucky, gods know that's the only way she hasn't died from an accident and she's managed to walk away unscathed from so many near misses!
She's an optimistic sort, rarely looks on the darker side of life, and shes got quite a bit of gumption. Her intentions are good, even if she doesn't always seem to achieve what she sets out to.
Little bit of history:
ASSUMING THIS IS FOR ROGUE HISTORY/REASON WHY THEY EACH JOINED SO I'MA THINK ON THIS FOR A BIT.
How did they meet?:
Tamira's apparent super power for attracting accidents gave rise to suspicion within the pride. Assuming she was a spy sent to sabotage their resources, the pride had her watched by one of their wardens.
Falling rocks? Puttered away just in time.
Angry wild life? For reasons unknown, found herself diverted.
...And how had she not even heard the loud 'bangs' as any rocks, trees, or otherwise, just happened to fall behind her?
There were many mysteries in life, and these were perhaps some of them.
As time moved on and the warden continued to observe her in her daily duties, he came to the conclusion that there was no way anyone so utterly ridiculous could possibly be capable of harm. This was further supported when she did eventually hurt herself (ever so slightly), and he realised that she absolutely, positively, hadn't the slightest clue what he was referring to when he remarked on the many times she should have died.
