𝐏𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧:

Shujaa is a lavender-gray lioness who bears the marks of her rugged past with numerous scars decorating her body. Her right foreleg is scarred up, and her left ear is torn. Claw marks adorn her muzzle, and some of her teeth are jutted due to past battles. Despite her battle-worn appearance, her faintly violet eyes hold a certain wisdom and warmth. She is missing her left eye.

𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲:

Despite her battle-hardened exterior, she is remarkably levelheaded and easygoing, her guarded past marked by numerous scars, hasn't made her cold or distant. Instead, Shujaa enjoys dropping cryptic hints about her experiences, finding amusement in the imaginative tales others weave about the origin of her scars. Protectiveness is a defining trait, particularly when it comes to the safety of the pride, especially the cubs. Shujaa's fear of losing loved ones, rooted in her rogue days, drives her to become fiercely defensive, and she can become angered when faced with reckless endangerment. She has a genuine interest in learning and embracing the ways of Mlima Pride. She values the sense of community and stability that the pride offers, contrasting with the solitude of her rogue past. Due to her throat scars she has a raspy voice that, combined with her nature, sometimes leads others to believe she's older than she actually is. She can take jokes, but there are moments when she misses the humor in her own interactions.

𝐇𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲:

Shujaa's early years as a rogue cub were not entirely solitary; she was taken care of by an older lioness who found her alone in the wilderness. This older lioness, whom Shujaa affectionately refers to as "Amani". Amani became a surrogate mother to Shujaa, providing warmth, protection, and the essential life skills needed for survival. Their bond was built on a foundation of mutual respect and dependency, as Shujaa learned the art of hunting, navigating the terrain, and understanding the intricacies of the harsh wilderness under Amani's watchful eye. As Shujaa grew older, Amani gradually allowed her more independence, sensing that it was time for the young lioness to find her own path. Though they eventually parted ways, the bond between them remained imprinted on Shujaa's heart.

A rogue by circumstance now, she learned to fend for herself as she roamed through various territories. These early experiences forged her independence, but also left her physically scarred and emotionally guarded. The first significant scar appeared on Shujaa's left eye during a confrontation with a territorial older lioness. The battle for a meager watering hole left Shujaa permanently marked, losing her left eye in the process. The vicious neck and throat scar came from a perilous encounter with a crocodile during a desperate attempt to quench her thirst near a river. These scars were acquired in her adolescence, shaping her into a survivor but also leaving lasting reminders of the harsh reality beyond the safety of a pride.

As Shujaa reached maturity, her rogue lifestyle continued. She never had a stable pride, and her encounters with others were often fleeting, more often than not marked by clashes and struggles for territory, water, or even a bone. Despite her prowess, the harsh life took its toll on her body, leading her to question the sustainability of her solitary existence. It was in her prime years that Shujaa stumbled upon the lush valley protected by the mountains—the haven of Mlima Pride. Shujaa had been roaming the outskirts of Mlima's territory when she noticed a peculiar change in the weather. Under the meteor shower, she lay on a high vantage point overlooking the Mlima Pride's territory. The meteors streaked across the sky, leaving trails of light that momentarily captured her attention. It was during this celestial display that Shujaa felt a ghostly presence beside her. Out of the corner of her remaining eye, she caught a glimpse of a familiar silhouette.

Amani, the lioness who had taken her in during her rogue cub days, seemed to materialize from the twinkling stars. Shujaa's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions—gratitude, nostalgia, and a tinge of sadness for the lost times. Amani's ghostly form sat beside Shujaa, and for a moment, the rogue lioness felt the warmth of another body press against her. As the meteor shower continued, Shujaa shared her tales with the spirit of Amani. She recounted the scars she had earned, the battles she had fought, but how lonely she had grown during Amani's absence. Although Amani never spoke, she gestured in the direction of the well-known Mlima Pride once she was finished. She didn't understand at first, but as the meteor shower eventually subsided, and Amani's spectral form slowly faded back into the cosmic tapestry. Shujaa was left alone on the hill.

Drawn by the promise of peace and stability, she cautiously approached the pride and, after a formal introduction to King Uwezo, was welcomed into the community.

[Future: The collaborative nature of pride hunting, unfamiliar to her, has left her feeling out of place and struggling to adapt. She makes mistakes in her attempts to contribute, lack of familiarity with teamwork leads to miscommunications during hunts and challenges in coordinating with other pride members. She'll eventually find a new sense of purpose as a Cubsitter.]

𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐚:

Shujaa finds solace in stargazing during the quiet nights. It's her way of connecting with the vastness of the world and reflecting on the contrast between her former life as a rogue and the sense of belonging she now feels in Mlima Pride.

Shujaa's time as a rogue has ingrained a deep fear of losing those close to her. This fear drives her protective nature, making her vigilant and occasionally overbearing when it comes to the safety of the pride, particularly the cubs.

Before settling down for the night, Shujaa has a calming pre-sleep ritual of humming a soft melody. It's a practice she adopted during her rogue nights as a way to ease the tension and signal a moment of tranquility.

Shujaa is most active and alert during the night. She often takes night patrols and enjoys the tranquility of the Pride Lands when the moon is high.
