Character name: Jelani APV
Screenshot: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v677/she_wolf/FeralHeart/Jelani.pngSpecies: Leopard (normal)
Gender: Male
Age: 4 years
Description: A golden coloured coat with a more lightly shaded underbelly and tailtip. His eyes are a blue-green color with a pinkish nose. He's about the average size and build of a male leopard.
Personality: Jelani is a loner who is wary of strangers and will be a bit stand-offish around them. Yet he will normally be friendly once he has warmed up to someone as long as they do not pose a threat. Additionally, lingering curiosity will drive him to explore new sights or smells but with a caution instilled in him from an incident three years previously. He has a sarcastic sense of humour, but doesn't often use it.
History: Jelani's childhood was rather unremarkable by most standards. He was born to a proud female who took great care to teach him everything she knew about survival and went to great lengths to protect him from those who would see him as easy prey. Granted, being a curious cub, this hadn't stopped him from accidentally landing himself in trouble with a lioness. The lioness had managed to inflict a minor wound before his mother came to his rescue but he was able to recover, a scar on his flank the only souvenir for his troubles. Yet, even this hadn't stopped him from being curious about the world around him and thus was a great source of frustration for his mother. But as he grew, he learned quickly and was a proficient hunter by the time he came of age when he was forced to set off on his own.
Mate/Offspring: None
Loner/Looking to join pride/pack?: Loner (I don't think leopards live in groups. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong)
Your character is best at?(Optional): Hunting
RP sample: Jelani was draped across the branch of a tree with his eyes closed tightly, seeking refuge in the shade from the searing mid-day African sun as the tip of his dangling tail flicked idly. A familiar sound nearby disturbed the young leopard's nap, his rounded ears twitching before he opened his eyes and raised his head to look for the source of the disturbance. There they were. Grazing on the high grasses nearby was a herd of impala, scrounging lazily at the foliage. Jelani yawned widely before stretching out the lingering stiffness from his slumber, claws digging into the bark of the tree before he pushed himself to his paws and quietly made his way to the ground. Crouching low, he slowly made his way towards the herd. With any luck, he'd have a mid-day meal.
' Sonya loves the rain'(I may apply with one of my lionesses as well to help balance things out later if I'm sure I can handle a second/final character)
