[quote="AustralianChaos"][quote="oXButterflyKissesXo"]I think you should totally do it!
This would be good experience for you, and you could practice for more RPs to come
I would like to see how Imani's reaction to him would be and how they would interact.
And RPing is really just telling a story with a point of view of your character and getting ready for twists and turns of the RP partners.[/quote]
In that case, sign me up!
It's about time I did something without worrying about it, anyway!
Here's an altered profile for Tanga:
----------
Name: Tanga (Swahili for "wanderer")
Gender: Male
Species: Lion
Pride: Pridelander (former Rogue)
Family: Deceased
Mate: None
Young: None
Looks: Golden yellow pelt, with silver nose and belly, and midnight black mane. Deep, electric blue eyes. Has a slim build, slightly under the average size for a lion. Possesses no visible markings of significance, although his unique appearance does make him very easy to recognise.
History: Born and as raised under rogue parents, Tanga lived a rather hard life from the moment he was born. He was an only child, and as such, his parents cared from him deeply. Early into his adolescence, his parents were killed in a hunt gone wrong, with Tanga managing to escape, maturing into an adult completely alone.
During his wanderings, he stumbled across the Pridelands, where he has since been taken in. He is still learning to fit in, and has yet to aquire any true friends, but beneath his lonliness, he continues to hope...
Personality: As a cub, he used to be extremely energetic and adventurous, with a bubbling, optimistic approach to life, despite his lack of friends or siblings. The death of his parents shook him to the core, leaving him extremely quiet and reserved, his energetic personality lost to the farthest depths of his soul, where it has remained to this day. He partially blames himself for his parents' deaths, that guilt only increasing his shy, reserved nature.
Having spent his entire life as a rogue, with his parents as his only companions, Tanga's social skills are limited at best. He is generally polite, but also shy and quiet, finding it difficult to strike up a conversation, and struggles to maintain a conversation.
Being new to the Pridelands does little to help him, and he is still getting used to being part of a pride. He does not see himself as a Pridelander just yet, more as a lonely rogue seeking sanctuary and company in the Pridelands.
His troubled past, coupled with his years of solitude have left him with a large sentimental streak. He can spend hours and hours just sitting, watching the endless grasslands and contemplating various things.
To many other lions, he seems introverted, preferring to keep to himself and his own thoughts, but his shyness and sad, painful past just make him appear that way. If someone were to get him to open, there may be a hope of reviving the old cub within him.
Skills: His slim, small build does not make him particularly strong, but he is very agile, and can be quick is the situation calls for it. He generally relies on his agility...along with his brain, to overcome opponents in a fight, but he is no master tactician. He's a lion who prefers to have competency in all fields, rather than complete mastery of one at the expense of others.
He also has a bit a storytelling streak, a trait he inherited from his mother, and the stories she always told him as a cub.

Whoa, that went on for a lot longer than I predicted!
I should have started RPing sooner, I'm already jumping around at the prospect of doing this!

Sweet! I'll put your name down! Now, all we need is one more male to be in the running and we're good to go.
