Double Threat Duo



These two are connected to each other, but "how" is a mystery! For this contest, you'll be working with another person to tell me the relationship between these two. Fill out the form below and post it here to enter.

Rules:

• How they're connected is up to you! They can be siblings, rivals, lovers, complete strangers that happen to join the pride at the same time -- whatever you can come up with!
  
• You are required to enter with another person. Can't find someone? Feel free to use our I/T thread to try and seek someone out!
  
• These two can be any of the Middle ranks, but High ranks are off limits for them.
  
• Their factions will be rolled after the contest is over.
  
• They must stay in the pride.

Noble Boy



This boy is special -- he is a Mzuri, a noble! This is the Crème de la Crème of the pride, and a limited title for people to gain while the pride is still an I/T. It'll become even more rare after the pride is official, so this is a prime opportunity to get someone with it!

This will be a personality contest. The entry doesn't have to be long, but I do want something that shows this guy as the noble he is.

Rules:

• Be creative with this! Why is he a noble? I'm looking for something that makes this boy special.
  
• I will allow him to be related to the royal family, if you so choose, or he could have earned the title through other means.
  
• He can only be a Mzuri, but of course, he's free to pursue other hobbies.
  
• His faction will be rolled after the contest ends.
  
• He must stay in the pride.

Noble Boy

Username: Anderleit
SoA's Name: Kaliphar
Personality: This sweetly-smiling, soft-eyed male was a stranger when he entered into the lands of the Kiongozi for the first time. It was only by chance that he wandered by, though he would eventually come to admit that he happened to be in the right place at the right time. Kaliphar was skilled in healing, having learned the arts since he was a cub; and the leader's kipenzi had fallen ill some time before. Their typical manner of tending to the pets were so far failing them, and the pride that the dusty pink lion stumbled across was one tinged with sadness.

It wasn't Kaliph's way to pass any injured creature by, regardless of the strange relationships on display here. Humbly, he placed himself before the Kiongozi and submitted his service. For many nights, he remained at the side of the sick pet and weathered the concerns of his master, reassuring both with soothing words and gentle paws. After many moons of such dedication, Kaliphar was able to restore the leader's kipenzi to health, and was welcomed fully into the pride as a result. What's more, because of the boon that he had freely offered - as a complete stranger, no less - the Kiongozi offered the healer a position of status as a token of his gratitude. Having grown to love the members of the pride, and at home in the lush jungle, Kaliph graciously accepted.

He remains still, happy to walk among the pride with his own tamaa at his side. He is partial to the tamaa, and prides himself on knowing many of them by name. He is always eager to welcome new kipenzi into their ranks, particularly those who are small and in need of protection, though he is not quite as aggressive as the kamata with their nets. Instead, he carries a number of woven silk ropes wrapped about his barrel: leashes with which he leads the willing to their new home.

Are there any Kipenzi you'll be giving him?: I'd be looking to get several tamaa customed for him, but for the moment he'll be joining with Jahd and Peytoia as pigana.

This is now closed!

Since there weren't any entries for the first two, I'm just going to hold on to them for the time being and contest them off at a later time.

As for the Noble Boy, I liked both of your entries. In the end, I decided to go with Anderleit's entry for him. Congrats! Feel free to post him officially in the I/T thread so I can get him added to the member list.

That said, I'd like to offer up one of these to you, Tori! Just let me know which of them you'd like. He/she need to stay in the Mto'Mkuu as well. Once you've picked, feel free to post him/her officially in the I/T thread.

The wild dog can only be a low rank, but the lion can be any of the middle ranks, or a Shauri, or a Mzuri. (seemed silly to not allow you both to have a noble, so I'm letting you have the option)

The wild dog is a rehome from me too, so if you choose her, make sure to quote me when she eventually gets certed so I can confirm it.

Thanks so much, Mango! I look forward to playing Kaliph in the pride. May I ask his colorist?

I believe it was Meepfur for both of them. I'm going to double check, and I'll let you know if it's not.
