Mandisa, meaning "Sweet" or "Sweetness"
Allegiance:
Pridelander
Nicknames:
Mandisa, just Mandisa
Age:
Six months
Gender:
Female
Species:
Lion
Appearance;
Eye Colour:Dark brown
Fur Colour:Mandisa is a small golden brown lioness with a darker back then underbelly. At this point in her life, she is clumsy on her feet, and her paws are a little to large for her so that she trips if she's in a hurry. As she grows she will become more graceful, though she will always remain small. Her coat will change to a more solid golden coloring, though not until she's close to being full grown. She will be swift and light on her feet, a much better sprinter then a fighter. In a fight she could easily be overpowered, but her speed does even things out a bit.
Markings/other:Her underbelly and chin is a whitish color.
History:
Mandisa doesn't remember much about her history or path, but from what she's told her mother had a litter of three cubs, her, another female, and a brother. Her two siblings were young and died early on, and her mother was to weak from giving birth to the three of them to survive. Another lionesses who lost her litter took Mandisa in and named her. The kind lionesses nursed until she was four months old, when fatigue and not having enough food finally cost the lioness her life. She is told that her father is a lion named Jamilia, though his whereabouts and status (living, dead, etc.) is unknown to her.
Personality:
Mandisa, as her name implies, is a sweet cub. In her youth she is a kind hearted cub that honestly wishes for the best for everyone. She is often teased for being so kind by other members of her pride, though she doesn't care much about that. She approaches everything with an open mind and is one to assume the best about others, and is also one to give second chances, even if she had been hurt by the lion or lioness before. She has a sense of innocence and wonder that only a cub can have, and is curious about everything. Every new thing is a wonder to her and she wants to know exactly how things work. Unanswered questions are a frustration to her, and she would rather hear a lie for an answer than to here, "I don't know."
This is of coarse the young Mandisa, and more likely than not, she will be changed. She will most likely be a very morally just lioness with a determined nature about her and a hatred of all things unfair.
No matter her upbringing, Mandisa will be an intelligent lioness. She will like to know exactly what's going on, and doesn't like to be kept out of things. She will most likely lose her childlike wonder, but her curiosity will remain, and her need to know how everything works. She won't always be the best under stress, and would much rather be told a happy lie then have to listen to a horrible story, even if she feels the need to know exactly what's going on.
Mandisa will be probably be a motherly lioness, and will enjoy cubs and have a soft spot for them. She will probably nurse a desire for cubs, and will most likely enjoy motherhood, even if she doesn't have the best patience in the world. She will be an understanding lioness, even if her original kindness doesn't remain.
Other information:
Mandisa has an uncle named Bello that I may or may not make. If anyone wants to play Jamilia they can.
