Species: Panthera Leo
Sex: Female
Age: Young adult (at beginning of reign)
Pride: Tambara Pride
Personality: Friendly, optimistic and always out for a laugh. Amira prides herself on her friendships and considers them very important; leaving her pride was hard because of this. She tries to be as down-to-earth and truthful as possible, but is capable of a white lie here and there. Sometimes she doesn't think before she speaks, which she always regrets. She is easily driven to become emotional, both negatively and positively, and used to be sensitive as a cub. Her sensitivity has gotten better over time, but it's still there.
Description: (see picture)
History: Amira was raised to be Queen over the Tambara lands; she had a happy and healthy cubhood and she was very close to her family and friends. However, the restrictions of being future Queen during her adolescence made her restless. The birth of her brother, Jasiri, made her seriously consider leaving to become a rouge. She wanted to explore the world outside of the Tambara valley, and she knew that the only way to do that would be to go solo. Besides, Jasiri would be left behind as heir.
After months of persuading her parents and improving her hunting skills, they agreed she could leave, on condition she return every four full moons to see them. She has been surviving and travelling since, going back once since she had left and finding herself again in conflict over whether to stay, missing her brother. It was young Jasiri who convinced her to continue her travels, as he understood what it meant to be heir. While Amira never outright hated the idea of being Queen, she could simply not see it.
Shortly after she left, she met Mjuvi, a fellow rouge. The two were immediately attracted to each other. She learnt of his past and her learnt of hers, and blossoming love commenced. However, back home, the pride was attacked by a swarm of hyenas, passing through from the Pridelands but not intent on staying in the Tambara lands. Most of the pride was wiped out, but adolescent Jasiri and a couple of adolescent females survived. Jasiri left them to try and look after the lands to search for his sister. Once he found her, he described the situation frantically and she agreed to return to take on the role of Princess, not Queen, as he did not finish his training. Mjuvi, naturally, became the Prince, and the pride was rebuilt.
