Old joining thread -shhhh we need a new one

[KizingoZaa II]

If you're interested in having your character join the Kizingo'zaa, make sure you've read through (and understand) all the information pages! The Kizi have very specific thoughts on certain things and actions, and they are developing into a rather tight-knit pride that emphasizes keeping themselves safe through secrecy. Your SoA must be able and willing to comply to both the cultural requirements and the rules of the pride to join!

If you have questions, you can direct them to Andranis. Once you're certain that you understand and are OK with having a lion played in compliance to this culture, please fill out the form and post it in this thread. We'll post approval or denial once we've reached a decision.

Is your lion changing rank? We have a form for that! Have your lions recently had a family? We also have a form for that!

You may be wondering, if we've swapped to the individually-maintained owner's list, why do we need UPDATES? Well, we'd like to keep track of rank changes, and it's a good way to make sure an outside name hasn't been taken already! No two Kizaa may share the same Outside name, to reduce confusion! There can only be one Puzzle, after all!

Accepted! Though that should be a given since she's on the lines xd This, at least, lets me know she's returning home heart

{{ she was cub napped during that huge ORP and bahari conflict;; she is grown since then but I never got her officially put in, so here it is! }}

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Biliah
Owner: Chi Sohma
Gender: Female
Outside name: Red Foot
Mate: (If you're bringing one or taking one when you get in.)
Personality: She grew up feeling like she was out of place since she was cub napped. Growing up, she had little to no friends so she tried every rank branch to see who she would fit in with more. Nothing settled in with her until she saw the hunting party go out one day. Since that moment, she felt her true calling. Still though, she doesn't feel like she quite belongs in the pride but is too scared to leave now. So she settled with calling this her home. Even if it seems like she doesn't quite fit.

Approved! Sorry it took me a bit there!  

[Das Tor]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Yùtù
Owner: Das Tor
Gender: Female
Outside name: Rabbit
Mate: Ruva
Personality: Yùtù is a sweet lioness, but a very nervous one. Something shook her badly, and for all her skill as a healer, she tends to stay close to her mate or their friend Oganjo.
Image: [x]
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Yùtù herself just wants a safe home, hidden from the dark creatures of the world. A pride that thrives on secrecy and staying hidden from the world? She's very much for that! [She, her mate, and their friend would be escorted by Maghaibi, one of Fireheart's daughters with Daimaishi.]
What rank would you want for them? Alchemist

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Ruva
Owner: Das Tor
Gender: Male
Outside name: Blooming Steps
Mate: Yùtù
Personality: Ruva is a bright, outgoing lion who loves to smile and dance and tell stories. He is very much one who doesn't like talking about himself, however, often turning conversations away from the past of himself and his mate and friend with ease of having done so for a very long time.
Image: [x]
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Ruva wants a place where his mate can be safe, and somewhere he can sing and tell stories to his heart's content, someplace he can sometimes wander out to get new inspiration before returning to those he holds dearest. [He, his mate, and their friend would be escorted by Maghaibi, one of Fireheart's daughters with Daimaishi.]
What rank would you want for them? Mummer

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Oganjo
Owner: Das Tor
Gender: Male
Outside name: Darkest Night
Mate: n/a
Personality: Oganjo is a quiet lion, rarely speaking and moving with soft paws. He's never seen far from Yùtù or Ruva, and is very protective of them, moreso Yùtù. He's friendly enough, however, social despite his quiet nature.
Image: [x]
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Oganjo goes where his friends go, and so long as they're safe, he's happy. He does rather like having a place where his quietness can come in handy, though. Sometimes it pays to be able to take out a threat before they can see you coming. [He and his friends would be escorted by Maghaibi, one of Fireheart's daughters with Daimaishi.]

[Andranis]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Zsazsa
Owner: Andranis
Gender: Female
Outside name: Glamour
Mate: N/A
Personality: A socialite at heart, Glamour enjoys the comforts of life. She isn't above work, of course, but she still likes to look fabulous while doing it. Her want to look fabulous shouldn't be taken to mean she's mean or greedy, though - Glamour is quite generous, sharing what she gets her paws on. She can be devious, too, though - She'll perform for outsiders as honest work, while the thieves she travels with do their thing and have an alibi the entire time.
Image: Fabulous, daling!
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: She believes she can direct attention from the thieves doing their work. "Vhy are you accusing me? I did nossing, I vas only putting on a show!"
What rank would you want for them? Mummer

[Wylde Roses]

YO, LEMME IN HERE
Inside Name: Jae'ni
Owner: Redbud-Tree
Gender: Female
Outside name: Sunshine (if that's available, of course)
Mate: N/A
Personality: Jae'ni is a hard-working sweetheart who is quick to smile and laugh and slow to get upset - which is a good thing, because she's clumsy and far from a quick-thinker. She's relentlessly optimistic and doesn't let anything drag her down into sour moods for too long, letting any negative emotions pour out and then wash away, quick as a sudden rainstorm.
Image: Uncert
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Jae'ni is not really the sort of lioness able to go it alone out in the roguelands. She needs a pride and a network of others to spend time with her and support her = she's much too sociable and group-oriented. Why the Kizi specifically? It's rather simple, really - it seems to her like it could very easily feel like home.

MOSTLY accepted... I think Sunshine might be taken, but their owner hasn't posted in the Owner's List yet if it IS? So I'm going to err on the side of caution and say "Maybe go with a new Outside Name"

Inside Name: Jinkai
Owner: Truth.Be.Told
Gender: Male
Outside name: Ashes
Mate: n/a
Personality: Jinkai is a bundle of energy, always ready to go, go, go! He's also a smartass to everyone but his Mama and his sister Esu, and has a mischievous streak a mile wide. Jinkai CAN be a gentleman, like his Mama raised him to be...he just doesn't feel like it most of the time.
Image: Here!
Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: He just wants a home, one that's close-knit like his birth pride was, and isn't riddled with non-lions. He's got nothing against them, but the way he was raised, non-lions aren't viewed too favorably by the spirits.
What rank would you want for them? Fortune Teller [He's VERY proud of his seer abilities and his half-god blood.]

Why they would join/fit in Kizingo'zaa: Like his friend Jinkai, he just wants a home, and he's too pale to feel comfortable following his parents back to the Aegnor'hini. He's not the Kinseeker, nor is he his mother or sister; he's no pale demon.
