Age: 6 and a half years old
Birthday: November 14th
Horoscope: Scorpio
Gender: Male
Family: His father is a very old elder lion in the pride known as Mulalo while his mother a lioness known as Asha. He was the only one of his
Personality: Malik is an ambitious lion who feels as though its his destiny to lead. He's a bit aggressive and fierce, but his loyalty lies with his pride...even if he takes it a bit too far. Overprotective, he's willing to attack first and ask questions later. He's also very stubborn and short tempered. It's not uncommon for him to not follow orders because he thinks his way is better. Malik's a bit too serious and uptight at times, but is a hard worker whose determined to let everyone see how much of a good warrior he is. However, Malik's love for fighting runs deep, to where he could almost be described as bloodthirsty and unnecessarily savage at times. He doesn't seem to realize his own strength which causes him to be a bit too rough. But Malik is not a bad lion. He may be a bit sarcastic and rude, not to mention arrogant and vain, but he's always there for anyone in the pride that needs him and can be kind and even affectionate to his fiends, as he believes bonds and 'brotherhood' is important.
History: Malik was born into his own pride before it was killed by hunters, with he and his father being the only survivors. Malik was destined to rule that pride before they were wiped out. He and his father joined Shiva's pride during its early days.
Appearance: Similar to his father, Malik is a massive lion, standing tall and proud with ripping muscles and a broad chest and shoulders. Much to heavy to even think of hunting, the male prides himself in his superb fighting skills, to where he's even challenge Adalaide for her position a few times. Of course, he's backed down each time, but slowly, he's beginning to get more and more bold. Malik's fur is a deep, palish gold in color, with a paler, almost whitish color tingling his muzzle/flank/paws. His prized mane is full and big, being a deep brown in color with black parts to it. His eyes are then a deep amber. Scars mark his pelt, with one slash over the bridge of his nose and a torn ear.
Habits: Bossing others around/Automatically trying to assume a leader-like position, clawing things in order to keep his claws sharp, pacing back and forth when bored, being a bit too rough when playing with others
Distinctive Traits: On his front right paw, all of the claws are black. He has a darker gold 'fang' shaped marking under his left eye.
Other: None.

Screenname: ѕιlvy
Full name of Character: Mulalo
Name Meaning/Nickname (Optional.): Peace
Rank: Elder
Species: Southeast African Lion
Length (Head to tail tip): 12 ft
Weight: 670 lbs
Age: 17 Years old
Birthday: September 25th
Horoscope: Libra
Gender: Male
Family: His son is Malik and his mate was Asha.
Personality: Despite his utterly huge size, Mulalo, like his name suggests, is a gentle giant. He's kindhearted and accepting, and despite his old age, listens to orders just fine. Very wise, the male is always willing to give out advice. However, Mulalo considers himself 'retired' and likes to enjoy his days sunning himself or even helping in watching after cubs. Unlike younger lions, Mulalo is very tolerant of cubs, and is often seen halfway asleep, sunning himself with cubs climbing over his massive body, chewing on his ears or playing with his mane. He's very calm tempered and patient...although, be warned. Despite his old age and gentle nature, when one invokes this beast's wrath, no mercy is given. He is extremely loyal to his pride and will gladly give his life for it.
History: Mulalo was the ruler of his own pride before all of it was wiped out by hunters except for him and his son. He joined Shiva's pride during its early days, having helped the young tiger in ruling the pride with his own experience {which perhaps has caused him to almost see Shiva as a 'son' of somesort}.
Appearance: Mulalo is a massive lion who, despite his own age, still looks intimidating with a muscular build. His mane is large and full, being black with a few grey strands and the front part, like most lions, being brown. His face has tinges of grey on it as well and his eyes are a dark brown. Mulalo has various scars littering his body, the most noticeable being down his face starting from his ear and heading to his muzzle.
Habits: He dozes off rather easily and can be rather forgetful.
Distinctive Traits: On his front right paw, all of the claws are black. He has a darker gold 'fang' shaped marking under his right eye.
Other: Mulalo was the lead warrior when the pride first started, however, he retired as he got older.

((Hey Hawk! And your characters are added. I will get to the replies in one moment.))

((Also, the pride still lacks a Healer/Medicine Cat. If anyone or anyone's friend would like to join and obtain the position, that would be wonderful.))

I can make a healer :3)

((Hawkeyes258 I don't see why not!))

Shiva crouched, almost ready to go, then touched her shoulder with his tail. "We may have to postpone this." He rumbled, turning back towards the cave. He lifted his head, scenting the air. "There is a stranger in our cave. I must attend to these matters." He told Indah, then began his quick descent down the short stretch of mountain. He let out a roar and trotted into the cave, sniffing as his sights landed on Xia.

"Ah...not exactly." Xia's ears flattened slightly. "I...don't exactly like being around this many others. It's..." She trailed off, shaking her head. "One of your 'fearsome felines' here looked as though they really wanted to line their nest with my fur though. Granted, they did catch me hunting a bit further into the territory than I thought." She spoke in a casual manner, bowing her head to gently lick at her chest fur a little. She even snuck a glance over at Kenai, but seemed more amused than anything. "Aaanndd then I was brought here to meet you - I can't say I wasn't curious though...I didn't expect you to be so..." She looked at him up and down. "Gigantic. Like really - really big." She jumped slightly when someone else had approached her, blinking in surprise but nodding at Shard's words. "I am."


"I hope not," Malik grumbled slightly with a small growl. Despite them all having been outsiders at one point or another, he was still quite touchy about those outside the pride - they couldn't be trusted. "And we have enough 'pretty kitties' in here anyway." Malik replied, giving Yasha a little smile look as he tried to force himself to relax. However, the outsider's casual and almost friendly tone made him growl once more. "How can she be so casual about admitting that she trespassed of all things?!" He snarled softly.

Xia blinked. "W-wait, really? You're not...pulling my leg, are you?" Her eyes narrowed, as if not really believing it. The thought of having allies was...pleasant. It was foreign to her, as in the past, trust and protection was not something she was ever offered. The tigress couldn't help but let out a soft purr like noise. "I-If you're serious, then we have a deal." She dipped her head. "Thank you."

Malik gazed down at Yasha, shuffling his paws. "But..." He trailed off, gritting his teeth. "And now she can hunt within our territory? She should be chased out," he growled softly to Yasha, unable to help his natural lion-like tendencies as well as his own nature getting the best of him.

Malik let out a little grunt towards Shard and Yasha. "Trespassing is still trespassing. It's bad enough we have to deal with hyenas, right? The spirits know how much those things eat." He grunted slightly. He shook his head slightly. "Aside from that...her coat - it might attract hunters closer thinking they can snag a pretty pelt without anyone noticing." He growled softly, the overprotective and fierce lion letting out another grunt. "It's happened before. A white furred lioness in my pride, she-" The lion stopped. "...N..Nevermind." It seemed his pride was still a sort subject for him.

Xia let out a soft chuckle. "Ah...maybe? I think I might be a bit too much for your pride to handle." She joked as well, then dipping her head. "Thank you again." Her her ears perked slightly as she looked around, and when another feline approached them, she smiled. "Hello! I'm ready to go when you are."
