[CLOSED] Kopa's Captivity

[AustralianChaos]

Alrighty, guys...I feel like it's time for me to try my hand at creating my own RP from scratch, so let's see how I go!

Plot:
There are many theories surrounding Kopa's mysterious omission from "Simba's Pride". Did Zira kill him, or just drive him away...or perhaps something else? What if it was a mix of both Zira and outside factors?

After Zira drives Kopa away from the Pridelands, a group of humans find him near-death, and take him into captivity to save his life. In captivity, he meets up with a small group of lions who take him in and help him adjust to life in a small enclosure.

Once characters are established, the RP will begin start at the point where Kopa wakes up in the enclosure.

(Please note that this is an open-ended, versatile RP...there is no set ending, and could go anywhere)

Characters:
Kopa: KiarasMate
Tanga: AustralianChaos (leader of the Enclosure Pride) (Character Profile found here...go to Part 5 for this particular variation of Tanga)
Heshima (Tanga's Mate): YFWE (Character Profile found here)
Marini (Tanga's Daughter): The Whistlerify (Character Profile found here)
Shani: Mike (Character profile here)
Grunge: SnowyCheetah (Character Profile found here)
Arria: BlitzRogue (Character Profile found here)
**Unnamed**: Nakisisa (Character Profile Pending)

Considering that, aside from Kopa, this is mostly an OC RP, I'd prefer it if you limited yourself to one character to begin with. If, during the RP, you think another character could be of use, just PM me and I'll look into it.

Rules:
As standard, read the RP guide stickied in the Sandbox.

Setting:
The enclosure laid out for this small pride is a small, enclosed imitation of the African wilderness, although it is hidden somewhere amongst the vast plains of Africa itself...with several landmarks of importance:
-The Borders: The walls of the enclosure are concrete, with several clear "windows" several feet above the ground for observers and visitors to look at the pride inside. There is no roof, the enclosure is open to the elements.
-The Dens: Several family dens dot the enclosure, each one a small cave able to house roughly half-a-dozen lions each.
-Rocks of Peace: A small collection of rocks and trees near the centre of the enclosure. The trees provide muted sunlight to the rocks during the day, making it an excellent spot to sunbathe and relax.
-The River: A small, shallow stream splits the enclosure roghly in half as it meanders through, providing and endless, constant supply of fresh, clear water for the pride to drink from. At one end of the river, where it slips into the wall, it pools into a small, moderately deep lake, perfect for bathing in.
-The Hatch: The hatch is an opening in the wall where food is sent through for the lions. Can't have them starving now, can we?
-The Hill: A small rise against one side of the enclosure, which gives someone sitting on it a complete, unobstructed view of the entire enclosure. One of Tanga's favourite spots.

And after all this, there is the human facilities surrounding the enclosure, which consist mostly of observation rooms and monitoring facilities.

Of course, aside from all this, more details will be added in as the RP progresses.

So...*rubs hands together in anticipation*...any takers? And while that's happening, I have to go off and make yet another alteration to my Tanga profile for this RP.

Hmm, can I play Kopa? ^^ I'm quite intrigued by this RP, as it reminds me slightly of the very first RP I ever took part in and your set up just sparked my interest AC.

[AustralianChaos]

okay, wow...moderator interest in my first ever self-designed RP!

Sure, you can be Kopa! And thanks for the feedback...the idea just popped into my head out of nowhere, and the plans so far is just what happened after 15 minutes of letting my imagination play with the idea.

[KiarasMate]

lol. This RP just seemed to jump out at me. I like how open ended it is and the interaction with humans isn't something you find in every LK RP. I'm typically against that sort of thing, as far as Fan Fics go anyways, but like I said, this just made me feel so nostalgic due to my very first RP. Hope we can get some more really awesome RPers to make this one even grater though. ^^

[YFWE]

I think playing Tanga's mate could definitely be a challenge! I'd be interested in portraying her if that sounds good to you.

[AustralianChaos]

Sure, YFWE!

You'll have to create a character, or else use an OC you already have running around somewhere, but I'll put you down!

[YFWE]

Will do! I'll have something created soon.

[Mike]

I'd like to join in with my character Shani. Hope this works out ^.^

[AustralianChaos]

Well, that'll certainly spice things up!

You're in!

EDIT: Just removed the human character from the available list. No point playing a character who can't really interact with the others!

Can I be Tanga's cub?
