personal information

PERSONALITY: Zawadi is a shy adventurer that loves to explore, but sort of clams up around other animals. She hates being teased, misses her family, and hates all adult lions that act like jerks. A constant flaw of hers is the fact that she is clumsy, not aware of her own strength,or not watching where she's going, and sometimes has 'blonde moments'. Her strengths is that she is fiercely loyal once you befriend her, and is willing to pull her own weight, along with a few other's if nessicisary. She fears that one day the lion who gave her the scars underneath her eyes will find her.

RELATIVES: her mother and father, but thier now dead

HISTORY: Zawadi was born to a tiger and lion in secret. Her father, Shengo, was part of a pride with a leader who was prejudiced against other species; while her mother, Gyro, was an escaped circus preformer. While patroling the border of ther prideland, Shengo can across Gyro in an injured position, and while nursing her back to health (in secret) came to love her. Gyro felt the same, and they soon had Zawadi (which means gift).Meanwhile, Natru, the pride's leader, felt like Shengo was hiding something from him, and while following his second-in-command,found out about Gyro and Zawadi. While Shengo was attending to the pride, he came back, and in her point of critical vulnerability, he killed Gyro. Taking the newborn cub with him back to the pride, he made her an "example" of what "atrocities" happen when lions fall in love with others; therefore Zawadi grew up with teasing and name calling all around her. Her only friend was her father, and he doted on her, comforting her when she cried, reassuring her in her strength, and occasionally licking her wounds when the older lions decided to have a bit of fun. When she grew a little, Shengo decided to leave the pride with her Zawadi in tow, but only made in a little bit past the border where he was then ambushed and killed. Zawadi, sobbing in despair, was roughly dragged back to her "example" position, until the day, when she got so angry, she killed Natru's son with an acidentally overpowered blow the head. Natru, furious decided to finish her off once and for all, but only manage to make the two scars underneath her eyes (while attempting to crush her), befor she bit his paw, taking his last left toe, and ran away, hearing his roars of revenge. She hasn't stopped running and hiding, barely surviving out on her own.
*IC History:*
Zawadi has since come to the Tawi forest, claiming a little piece by the river to call home. Soon after, she met Kuruka, and joined his troop as lead huntress, using the skills that her father taught her early in life to provide for the cubs of her new family. While she is still shy, Zawadi is bit by bit, becoming a bit braver and out going. Her spirit is strong, and while she's still a bit clumsy, she is determined to know her new home like the back of her paw.
