[mlkfaa] - Character -> Keyah by Iri

[Iri]

Name meaning: "In good health"
Father: Unknown
Mother: Unknown
Brother: Tindo
Sister: Dhakiya
Mate: Busajja

Appearance:
Keyah has a dark brown pelt, but it isn't as dark as her sister's. She has five spots under her eye and a stripe running up her muzzle and stopping before her forehead. She has three stripes running up that blaze. Her belly is only a few shades lighter in tone. Her claws are nearly always unsheathed and she always wears a permanent scowl. She has black ear rims and her inner ear is the same colour as her eye "ring".

Personality:
Merciless and vicious, Keyah doesn't really like being "soft" towards her victims. She's extremely territorial and will never hesitate to show an intruding lion that they're on the wrong side of the border. She's very harsh and hates Pride-lions.

Keyah has an extremely swift and sharp tongue and doesn't ever hesitate to throw an insult at anyone. She is very smooth with words and sometimes emotionally bashes her fellow rogues. She is very clever and intelligent, too.

Besides being clever and intelligent, she has no wisdom whatsoever. She doesn't appreciate the hard work her rogues have to do and she sometimes abuses her position as lieutenant.

History:
Born to rogues and having no father figure and only a mother, Keyah and Tindo were favoured over Dhakiya, her sister, due to Dhakiya's love for peace.

Her mother later drowned when she was an adolescent, leaving her harsher and crueler than ever. She blamed Dhakiya for their mother's death, saying that Dhakiya should have saved the older lioness. Keyah went into a period of despising her sister and ignoring her.

Later Keyah began to forgive her sister, but very slowly. Their sisterly relationship never actually completely mended, and the two from there on out kept their distance from each other, which was perfectly fine with both of them.

Keyah was appointed second-in-command after she saved her brother from a pack of wild African dogs. Busajja and Keyah became mates. Though they never had cubs, Busajja was the only one apart from her brother who she cared about.
