The Falling of Shadows: Multi-animal RP[OCs Open]

"Sounds like you and Darkseige'd get along just fine," joked Lex. Felix but an elbow to her side again.
"Some dragons are solitary," Darkseige said. "I only wish that I was. Some like life in groups." He gave Lex a meaningful look.

(AUGH!! Cat! Fat! Trying! To sophicate! Me!!)

Sharu smiled. "Well, my kind lives in prides, but we males often leave. The only males that stay are the leaders and the pride is primarily females and their cubs," he said.

[Nyota]

"Hmm," Darkseige tilted his head. "Leaders, huh?" he was born and raised by his parents, out in the wilds beyond the mountains. When he had grown, he struck out on his own to find himself with a flock-herd-thing of dragons with an easy life-style.
"With us," Lex inserted, "We usually stick around. The males that wanna leave will, but quite a few stay."
"Is it difficult to live alone?" Felix asked curiously.

[KingKovu44]

Sharu nodded. "Yes, but thankfully, males will usually find a pride to take over. They then kill the cubs of the previous male in order to have their own," he said.

[Nyota]

Lex and Felix looked shocked. "But-- why? I mean, so theey can have their own cubs, but... wouldn't it make sense to have older, stronger cubs in the pride? So you had a larger pride?" Lex nodded.
"But," Darkseige explained. "They may know that their blood parent has been driven out and feel no loyalty to their new leader. They could rebel." He looked at Sharu. "Is that right?"

[KingKovu44]

Sharu nodded. "Yes. I am looking for my own pride, but I don't enjoy the thought of killing cubs. It's just something that has to be done," he said.

[Nyota]

Darkseige nodded thoughtfully. "Hm." He jerked when the earth began to shift violently under them. Lex and Felix crouched down, sinking their claws into the ground.

[KingKovu44]

Sharu also gripped the ground with his claws. "That's been happening lately. I wonder why," he said.

[Nyota]

The shaking subsided. Darkseige shook his head. "We've never felt it."

[KingKovu44]

Sharu looked around. "I've felt it lately on my journeys. It's causing the herds to start moving," he explained.
