Name: Ekundayo
Pronounced: eh-koon-dah-yoe
Meaning: "sarrow becomes joy"
Nickname: Dayo
Age: 5 years (about)
Gender: Female
Race: Feline
Species: Cheetah / Lion hybrid
Personality: Usually very laid back and calm. She has a funny way of annoying people without ever even trying. She never appologizes for anything, and can be a little stuck up. Nothing is ever her fault, she can always lay the blame on someone else. If she does claim the fault is hers, don't expect her to say sorry or even feign remorse. She doesn't care for joking and silly things. Dayo is a bit of a stick in the mud when it comes to taking a joke, but oddly enough she makes others laugh. Normally she doesn't act very emotional (her most common facial expression is simply to cock an eyebrow), and she usually talks in a dull monotone, even when being sarcasitic (which she is often). Others seem to find this amusing, appearantly. For someone who's not very welcome many places, she's not very vengeful or depressed. She doesn't care what others think of her and she lets everything roll. Although, it's best not to upset her too much. She has a looong fuse, but when it's out, she doesn't really believe in second chances. Her eyes cause a lot of people to avoid her, not that she cares.
Brief History: Born, raised, and never been away from Africa. She was born in the Savannah and that's where she always plans to stay. She's never known her father, though she knows he wasn't a lion, like her mother. That's obvious in the way she's built. No one doubts it, not even her. But it doesn't make her welcome in many places, being a half-breed. She and her mother were kicked out of thier pride when she was still pretty young, when a new male took over (the old male was very tollerant and willing to let them stay). When she was old enough to go out on her own, Dayo traveled until she found a small group of cheetahs not far from her old home. Although she's more slender built than lions, she also discovered she was still broader and more muscled than the other cheetahs. They noticed, of course, and rejected her just like her old hom. Ekundayo has learned to be alone and doesn't mind it. She's always thought that was the cheetah in her, wanting to be a bit of a loner rather than feel crowded in a pride.
Also, her eyes had a lot to do with why she and her mother were kicked out. She's not blind, her iris and pupils are just white. Actually, if you look very, very closely (not that she lets you get that close) you can see that they are there. However, the old pride used to murmur that she was demon possessed, which was why she had white eyes. In reality, she has no idea why they're like that. She's asked her mother several times if it was a trait her father carried, her lioness mother has never, ever spoken of her father, not even to admit what everyone already knows.
