Basic Description: Mufua-jiwe is a very powerful and rare species of Fire Lion. His head tuft and tail are made up of blue flames which he can control. He has two scratches on his right ear and his entire body is blue. His eyes are hauntingly red and his claws can release fire. The bottom of his eyes are darker, as if he was wearing make-up.
Back Story: Largely feared by his own species, Mufua-jiwe is a dangerous, clever, and very powerful creature. He's an extremely rare species of Fire Lion and unlike the red Fire Lions, Mufua (his most commonly used nickname) can control when his head tuft and tail become flammable to the objects around him (trees, grass, ect.). His fire is so hot that it turns blue like the rest of his body. His claws also have the ability to generate fire. Often in battle, Mufua will use his "flame-claws" to badly burn his enemies, causing them to flee. It's rumored that his paw-prints leave scorch marks though this has never been proven. Mufua's tail and head tuft start to burn out if he is dead, near dead, or severely injured. Naturally, his blue color and flaming head tuft/tail give him away to his prey. In order to survive, Mufua created a technique to catching his prey: He would simply create a small flaming ring around his prey, trapping it. He'd simply wait for the fire to burn out and then go and eat. His cub-hood is a mystery as he would never talk about it.
