Species: Lion
Gender: Male
Pride: Wanderer/outsider/depending on the needs of the RP
Alignment: When not leading a pride, he tends to work with or against those in power, whichever serves his own ends.
Personality: Shani has a regal air that makes him seem larger than he is, and a way with words that allows him to bend most lions to his will. He can be fiercely protective of the lions he associates with, and when he is, he expects them to be fiercely loyal to him in return. He also has a very dry and sarcastic side that surfaces whenever he is bored or sees an opportunity. His big mouth has gotten him into trouble a few times, but he's always managed to slither his way out of tight spots.
As a pride leader he is dignified to the point of snobbishness. He treats his members well, but never lets them forget that they are his servants.
As a pride member he is manipulative, and cautious, though still supremely unflappable. He can put on whatever face he needs to bend those around him to his way of thinking. If he settles into a more or less stable position in the pride he will often amuse himself by antagonizing others.
Description: He's a smaller than average sized lion, but very muscular and swift. His agility and skill have kept him in the running despite several times having to fight lions larger than himself. His size disadvantage is telling however, and he would be overwhelmed by the brute force of a lion in Mufasa's class, no matter how he fought. He is a caramel brown, with a darker brown mane. He has black tufts of fur on his ears, and the tip of his tail is black. He has piercing green eyes.
