This sounds awesome! =D I'll join!

Name: Rowana
Gender: Female
Age: 4 years
Species: Malayan Tiger
In-Game Username: Saylor156

Group: The Council (If "Group" means that XD)
Rank Requested: The Hunter
Personality: Calm, Intelligent, Polite, She has a lot of stamina and speed, so she can chase larger prey for a long time until it tires
History: She was born into a small litter of two. Her brother (the other cub) was tiny and weak from birth, and he grew worse as time went on. When they became old enough to start play-fighting and hunting things like butterflies, her brother fell ill and died. This saddened her, and she was raised with a continuous pit in her heart, still grieving the loss of her beloved brother, whom she had protected and loved so dearly as a cub. The seasons turned into years, which brought her away from her mother and father, searching for where she truly belonged. This young tiger stumbled upon this group of felines, and she decided to join.
Mate: None yet
Previous Pride(s): Never had one
Family: Parents are still living, but they are far away. Brother is dead
Timezone: US Eastern
RP Sample:
(It looks confusing, so I'll put an underscore in front of each new paragraph)

_Rowana lowered herself into a crouch, eyes raised to the bulk of something ahead. Ragged breathed and wide-eyed, the lone wildebeest splayed its legs and let its head hang down, lips brushing the ground. Rowana had been following this particular specimen for about two days, tirelessly keeping it on the run without water or food. She had slowly made it make a wide circle, knowing that this would result in an easier return to the others.
_There are hungry cubs back at home, she reminded herself. Hunting had been slow recently, so this wildebeest was a prize that Rowana would not risk losing. Cool, night air brought steam from the creature's dark flanks, wreathing around it silently. Its hunter began to make a slow ring around it, still crouched and noiseless.
_The female tiger drew closer to her quarry and opened her jaws a crack, pelt rippling over her slender body.
_With a flash of movement, Rowana launched herself from the earth with powerful back legs. The wildebeest lifted its head feebly to see its tormentor's eyes before it lay shuddering on the ground. The force of her attack had thrown Rowana a little off-balance, but she righted herself and latched her teeth into its throat. Blood spurted warmly about her tongue, and she had to scrunch her eyes tightly to resist the age-old urge to tear into the freshly killed animal.
_Backing up with an open mouth and bloodied muzzle, Rowana sat quietly beside her prey. The light had gone from its eyes, but Rowana's stood out like twin beacons in the darkness.
She rested....

And... *drumroll*... There's my application! Hope she's accepted! =D

Please tell me if I did something wrong on the format!

[Adawna]

Ooooh, definitely accepted! :3 Welcome to the pride!

[Silentstep]

I was group-browsing, and this seems pretty interesting. Will apply once I get a chance, should I use my cheetah as a Small Prey Hunter or my lion as a Big Game or Medic? Which would you say you need most?

[Adawna]

I'd say it depends on which character you'd like to use most. If you want to use your cheetah, Small Prey Hunter, but if you want to use your lion I would definitely say Medic.

[Silentstep]

Hm. I'll use my Cheetah for now. By the way, what times would rping usually take place?

Name: Rapid
Gender: Female
Age: Adult
Species: African Cheetah
In-Game Username: Silentstep
Pic (Optional): Rapid
Group: Blue Fangs
Rank Requested: Small Prey Hunter
Personality: Rapid can be a rather taciturn cat, more concerned with surviving as a small carnivore than enjoying herself and lounging around, though now that she has joined the pride she has relaxed a bit. She has no use for layabouts and insults have been thrown between her and a few of the Pink Roses, especially the Harem cats. She prides herself on her speed, which is why she is a hunter, but she also knows a bit about herblore and a few stories passed down from her mother and sister. She respects authority, but will not hesitate a second to speak her mind if she disagrees.
History: Rapid's mother was killed by lions early in her cubs' life, she and her brother Ayden were raised by their older sister afterwards. This has given her an almost pathological hatred of lions, but she keeps this to herself when lion members of the pride are near.
 During a hunt, the three were ambushed by humans, who planned to capture them to ship to a zoo overseas. They were able to escape, but they were separated, and she hasn't seen her family since.
Mate: Nope.
Previous Pride(s): Nope.
Family: Flash (mother, deceased), Ilrea (sister, location unknown) Ayden (brother, location unknown)
Timezone: EST
RP Sample:
Rapid crouched in the tall grass, watching the gazelles graze in front of her. She crept forward, shoulder blades only barely sticking above the grass. One gazelle raised it's head, sniffing the air. Now. She exploded from the grass, locking onto her target. She pounded across the ground, feeling her spine contract and straighten, propelling her forward. She clawed at the gazelle's flank, causing it to trip and stumble. She latched onto it's neck, cutting off it's oxygen. Within minutes, the gazelle's struggles weakened, then ceased. She sat up, breathing hard for a full fifteen minutes before looking back at her prey. She murmured her thanks to it's spirit, wishing it a fine new body. She looked around. Before she had entered the pride's territory, she would be targeted by rouge lions and hyenas by now, looking to steal her food. She bit onto the neck again, dragging her prey home.
The sun was setting as she rejoined the pride. She walked by the Pink Roses, her lip curling in distaste. She could respect the ones who cared for cubs. But the Harem was next to useless, their soft, curved forms contrasting with her leanly muscled body. She walked directly past them, dropping the gazelle by a pair of cats nursing cubs. She tore off a leg for herself, then lay down a distance away to eat. One of the Singers was telling a story, her voice painting a picture, and Rapid allowed herself to relax.

[Adawna]

Accepted! :3 As for the time we'd be RPing, probably in the evening eastern time. So about 6ish is when people could be logging in. But we're waiting for way more players for that XD

[Silentstep]

Hm. If I have any free time tomorrow or winter break I could do some advertising on the game, if that works for you.

[Adawna]

Yeah that works.
