I hope I don't fail too epicly at playing Tani here ^^"
Quote: "I would never have belonged there. I'm a killer - This is the true place for me."
Name: Vitani
Alias: Shetani (meaning ‘she-demon’). Occasionally will just go by ‘Tani, but only allows those who are close to her to call her that.
Gender: F
Age: 20 (lion years)
Height: 2’7
Weight:275lbs
Physical Appearance: Vitani is an adult lioness with scruffy dirty-gold coloured fur, with a paler underbelly, muzzle and paws, as well as dark ear rims, a pink ‘outlander’ nose and piercing blue eyes. She also has a tuft of hair across her forehead, and freckles.
Picture:
Personality: Vitani is rather cynical and violent. While for a while after the prides were reunited, these traits were toned down, they have since become a prominent part of her personality again. She is rather tomboyish, and has a tendency towards being mocking and snarky. Can be a bit arrogant and sure of herself as well, although she doesn’t make a habit of boasting about her abilities.
History: Vitani was born in the Outlands soon after Scar’s followers were exiled by Simba, and was trained from birth by her mother, Zira, to be a fierce fighter for Scar’s cause. Despite passing through a period of self-doubt while she was still a cub, Vitani grew to be even more malicious than even Zira had hoped – although secretly, the younger lioness often disagreed with her mother’s methods, although she never said as such.
At least, not until the final battle for the Pride Lands, when Vitani opposed her mother directly, siding with Simba’s own daughter in an effort to stop the fighting. Shocked, Zira threatened Vitani herself with death, prompting the rest of the Outlanders to desert her as well, effectively ending the war (following which, Zira attempted to attack Simba herself, was thwarted by Kiara, and committed suicide instead of allowing the other lioness to save her). The Outsiders were accepted back into the Pridelands, and peace once again ruled the land.
A peace which proved too much for Vitani. She had been raised purely to fight, and deprived of this, the lioness grew restless. Eventually, she departed the Pride Lands altogether, and it wasn’t long before she found herself applying to join an agency of assassins. True, she didn’t entirely agree with all their ideas, but she needed to fight, and so this seemed like her best bet. Soon after, she was accepted, and although Vitani has yet to be given a mission, her prior training under Zira has prepared her for this.
Rank: New recruit
Allies: Kovu, left for RP
Enemies: Left for RP
Plans: I’d like her to get landed with a partner who she will be extremely reluctant to work with at first, but who can gradually convince her to open up to them. Preferably another female, so there’s no chance of it becoming a love interest (I prefer Tani single)
Sample Post: Seemingly permanently-extended claws clicked sharply against the floor as the young lioness entered the Assassins’ headquarters. It was Vitani’s first experience of a completely man-made environment, however there was no way she would let any uncertainty she felt show through. She belonged here – more than she did back at Pride Rock, in any case. An assassin was what she had been raised as, after all; these were her own kind. That she had been admitted at the door was more than enough proof of that.
A low rumble was allowed to escape the lioness’ maw as she approached what looked to be the area for the newest recruits, such as herself, to be admitted. Nudging the door open with her muzzle, Vitani stepped through wondering exactly what was awaiting her in this life she had now chosen.
Whatever it was, she was certain she would be up to it. She was Zira’s hand-trained warrior, after all. Raised under the dead king Scar’s shadow.
Of course she was up to it.
