To Emerge from NPC Status Councilor #: 4 (green boy) Prompt: Quietly Devout Name: Jabir (meaning one who comforts)
How did they join? Jabir is a newer member to the pridelands, though he's established himself quite swiftly. He has been a part of the pride long enough that he is friendly with most, knows many important names, and has shown his face and personality around enough that others are comfortable with him.
The Petition: Easy to get on with, charming, the kind of lion who can offer good emotion support to those in need. Jabir has made friends every day he has been a part of the Pridelands, and has established himself as a lion worthy of membership. He found himself drawn to this ideology, this circle of life mentality and he found it quite suited him. What he couldn't understand was many pridelanders' reluctance to speak to him on a more spiritual level, on why Gods were real and how they effected the circle of life. He learned quite quickly to quiet his thoughts on the Gods, though every day he woke early to thank them. Some days it would be the Gods of rain and hunt, other days it would be the Gods of laughter... it didn't matter, the spiritual beings found their way in all things.
He has thought long and hard how he can make those around him understand that Gods are real, and deserve to be revered and prayed to, and has decided that the more active he can be in the pride, the stronger his voice will be. He has no ill objectives, he just truly believes his way of thinking is more correct than the prides as a whole. And while he agrees that all creatures should be welcome and are born to the earth for their own reason, and will once again return to the skies and come back again... he can not understand hybrids even a little. He finds them to be... something of an abomination. His usual calm and friendly demeanor struggles in the face of any hybrid, his words becoming short or clipped, his voice and expression strained. And so he avoids them as much as he can, realizing again that this is not the popular opinion in the Pridelands.
Jabir likes to think that those around him feel connected to him, though he isn't quite sure if he feels the same connection. He very much enjoys the idea of being well liked, though are any of his relationships with others real? He wants them to be... but how is it supposed to feel? He enjoys hearing stories of those who have generation after generation born into the pride, though knows he can offer no story of his own where bloodlines are concerned. He respects the royal line but often wonders why more pressure isn't applied as far as continuing bloodlines and moving forward, electing for change and progress. He thinks that if they were just pushed a little bit in the right direction so many wonderful things could come to fruition, and with each passing day he finds this to be more and more his goal... this was why his paws carried him to the Pridelands, this was his mission.

My Pridelander is Council Material! SoA Name: Jamii'binti (JB) SoA Image: ![User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.](https://graphics.gaiaonline.com/images/s.gif) Any Notable Family: Related to the royal family, Wingu fam. Lots of fam. Any Noteworthy Skills: She is a very skilled huntress, and knows herd patterns exceptionally well. JB is most interested in the overall health and vitality of the Pridelands. The Petition: JB was raised with classic Pridelands ideals. Gods and spirits are just stories, and she is too old to be told about those kinds of stories. She has a more logical way of thinking, and tends to think in terms of gain versus loss. However, JB absolutely has no political etiquette. She can come off as brash and judgemental, and typically doesn't want to dance around kind and flattering words. She wants to get to the point, and she wants to get there now. Anything less than that is just wasting her time.
She is a new mother, but with a supportive partner who ends up on taking the more parental route than she. Having cubs has inspired her more protective instincts, not just towards them but towards the Pridelands altogether. She wants to see the lands thrive, and will do anything to see that they remain prosperous.
While she is a more distant relative of the royal family, she still bears quite a bit of loyalty towards them. The royal family has ruled the Pridelands for generations and have seen the lands through tough times. They are the only family with the right to rule over it, and if the Pridelands were to fall to new bloodlines, JB doesn't believe the lands could even be called 'Pridelands'.
The royal bloodline is the core to the pride, but JB believes that rogue acceptance is vital to the health of the pride. While she trusts new rogues less, she is considerably welcoming to new members, so long as they don't test her patience. She believes that Pridelands were meant to be ruled by lions, but that does not mean that others have their place within the Circle of Life.
She is also of the firm belief that Tau better produce a heir soon. /: (get on it Tau)

My Pridelander is Council Material! SoA Name: Maji'chanua SoA Image:
![User Image](https://i.imgur.com/seR9mSd.png) Any Notable Family: A LOT of extended family through her mother Aziza (owned by Meepfur). Any Noteworthy Skills: A relatively strong seer with an empathetic nature. The Petition: Maji is aware gods exist, as her father was a participant in her upbringing. She is quiet about this, as she is a firm believer that it is better not to rock the boat and upset the beliefs of the Pridelands as a whole. Some change is good, but it is better done with care to ensure it is not more than the pride can bear at once. That said, within her own den she is a bit of a mystic.
She left in her youth to pursue the mystical (and half-mythical) Mistweavers, but upon finding little but shadows of the pride, she returned to her homeland after the last fragments dispersed.
She is welcoming to outsiders, having ventured beyond the pride's borders in the past. She chose an outside male to sire a litter, and she is proud of her children.
It hasn't occurred to her that anyone but the royal family could truly lead the pride. They are the only ruling family she has known in the lands, and a change in this would be quite an upheaval to her. She is unsettled that Tau has yet to produce an heir.
