Nyuuga

[Nitro]

Name: Nyuuga
Species: Lion
Gender: Mlke
Pride: Lavi Band
Personality: He is the silent type, choosing to keep to himself rather than chatter incessantly like his 'brothers.' He is somewhat mysterious as no one can predict his next action nor know what he is thinking. He is watchful over his band as they consider him the leader, but will let them make mistakes to learn from it. He will not hesitate to laugh at them for that though. His band depends on him but he is secretly planning to leave and find a mate and start a pride of his own.
Description: Nyuuga is an unusual ebony with an even darker mane. He is large for his age, being only a young adult and has oversized paws he inherited from his father. He has grey eyes and a mane that covers only his neck and his upper chest and has a snow white underbelly and muzzle.
History: Nyuuga's family were loners living on the edge of another pride's territory. He was the youngest of 7 cubs and his large family was constantly terrorized by the pride. Their mother was the secondborn of the King and Queen who was driven out when she fell in love with a rogue. When Nyuuga was an adolescent, his eldest brother was killed by the pride since they saw him as a threat. His father, in anger at the murder of his firstborn, went to the pride in search of revenge but never returned that night. The siblings old enough to fend for themselves either joined the pride or left in search for a mate to start their own, depending on gender, leaving him and his mother the only ones left. His mother neglected him, grieving at the loss of her family when he decided he would leave. He sneaked away and headed east, but soon realized he couldn't catch his own food when he was that young. He came across another teen named Jihha who pitied him and took him in and years later formed the Lavi Band.
