Description First of all like always. The lineart I used for this belongs to *Malaika4 and you can find it here [link] , [link] and [link] .

After I saw those two awesome lionesses here [link] I decided to finally do what I'm thinking about for so long.
Making Magnus and active OC on this account too and not only in the Terra Nova account I have together with *SweetLittleVampire .

So here he is together with his lionesses and the cubs that are all except for one not his own.

________

The pride

- Leader: Magnus
-coat color: dark brown
-mane color: fiery red
-belly and paws: creamy brown
-eye color: blue
-markings: black dorsal stripe, black mask over back on the nose and forehead, black tail
-relatives: Marius (his son)

-character: proud and gentle, can be a bit grumpy if he's in a bad mood but never unfriendly against the lionesses and cubs in his pride, can be really confused if he came into a situation he was never before.

-history:
Born in captivity as a palace lion he has no experience with the wilderness and don't see humans as a true danger. He decided to leave the humans to see how the wild and uncivilized lions live. His son Marius followed him secretly and at the end he needed to take the cub with him. The first lion they meet was a little orphan cub that got separated from his parents during a human attack. Magnus took him in and treated him as his own. Shortly after that he realized that nobody will feed them like they are used to be and that he had to hunt to keep the cubs and himself alive but a he never hunted before he failed every time. As he meet a wild lion that was mistreating his mate and their cub Magnus killed him in fight and the lioness joined her mysterious savior.
As a small pride of rouges they traveled around and in the middle of the desert they meet two other lionesses and a little cub that are nearly starving. Magnus asked them if they would join him and help him in hunting and promised them he would protect them in return. Both lionesses where glad to take his offer and became huntresses in that strange kind of pride the lion with the fiery mane has.

Aruna is a careful but brave lioness that knows how to lead her pride sisters and how to defend the pride if needed. She loves her only cub Subaia and tries to protect her from every danger. The fact that girl likes Marius very much makes her happy and worried at the same time since she's scared that the little one could end like her.

-history:
Aruna lived together with her mate as a little happy couple until their little cub was born. Seeing that she don't bare him a son Aruna's mate started to act extremely violent against the lioness and the cub. One day a stranger came and killed Aruna's mate to protect the lioness and the helpless cub. First she was unsure what to do. Running away or stay but as she saw that the lion was no danger to her and her cub she thank him for helping her.

With her pride sisters she's gentle and friendly and treats them like relatives even if they aren't related to each other.

-history:
Alahya was a rough female for a very long time after her pride was nearly entirely killed by another pride that wanted to make his own territory bigger. She managed it to escape together with her sister and her cub. Together they wandered through the desert in hope to find a place where they can life until they nearly died from hunger. On the gape to death they meet Magnus, a male lion with a fiery mane that lived with humans for a long time, and his small pride of one lioness and three cubs.

-history:
Yalaz lived in the desert together with her sister Alahya and her niece Lisala. As they meet Magnus she was immediately ready to follow the lion with the fiery mane no matter what her sister said. She became friends with the only lioness in the pride very soon and accepted her as their chief huntress. She also adopted the little orphan cub Sandasar and treated him like an own son.
It seems that she has a crush for Magnus but didn't tell him.

- The cubs -

- Name: Marius
-coat color: pale golden
-mane color: fiery red
-belly and paws: cream golden
-eye color: light blue
-markings: brown dorsal stripe and tail
-relatives: Magnus (father)

-character:
He's a mischievous little cub who loves to explore all things around him. Since he's born in captivity his sense for danger is not really developed and like his dad he shows no fear from humans. He likes Subaia very much and promised her to marry her one day. To the other cubs he's playful and nice.

-history:
Marius followed his father as he left the palace secretly and Magnus noticed it as it was already too late to bring him back. He saw it as a big adventure until he realized that there’s nobody to feed them. When they meet the little cub Sandasar he was happy to have a playmate and treated him like a brother from the beginning.
For Marius it was a huge shock to see how wild lions treat their mates when they meet Aruna and her cub who got both mistreated by her mate. He was happy that they joined his father after he killed the brutal lion and free them.
In the desert they meet Alahya and her sister and Marius learned that wild lions tend to attack other wild lions to make their territory bigger.

-----

-Name: Sandasar
-coat color: pale sand
-mane color: brown
-belly and paws: white
-eye color: turquoise blue
-markings: white ears
-relatives: unknown

-character:
Sandasar is easy to frighten and if he’s scared he tend to hide himself behind Yalaz or another adult. He’s really scared of humans and unable to understand why Magnus and Marius don’t fear them. He’s an intelligent cub that thinks before he does something and acts always careful.

-history:
Sandasar got separated from his parents during a human attack and he doesn’t know if they are still alive or got killed. He was very happy when Magnus found him and adopted him so that he didn’t need to live all on his own.
After Aruna joined them he spended a lot of time with the lioness seeing her like a mother figure but Aruna hasn’t that much time for him. He makes also friends with Subaia and got a sibling like relationship with her.
As Alahya and Yalaz joined them too he finally found the mother he was searching for in Yalaz who treated him like he was her own.

-----

-Name: Lisala
-coat color: dark greyish brown
-tail tuft color: pale black-brown
-belly and paws: light greyish brown
-eye color: purple
-markings: light greyish brown ears
-relatives: Alahya (mother) and Yalaz (aunt)

-character:
Playful cub that haven't lost her happiness even if she suffered already so much during the time in the desert. She loves Magnus and sees him as her father. To her mother and aunt she's always loyal and would never refuse an order she get or break a rule they made. With the only three other cubs she friendly as long as they don't say something bad about her relatives. She can become a really savage fighter if she's getting angry but it also needs a lot to make her angry.

-history:
Lisala had to flee with her mother and her aunt from her former home after their pride got attacked. She lived in the desert and nearly faced death as she met Magnus. After joining his pride she became fastly friends with the three other cubs there and started to live a more or less normal life since you never know what happens next in Magnus pride because of its tamed leader that has no idea how the world out of the palace walls works.

-----

-Name: Subaia (little lioness)
-coat color: light copper brown
-tail tuft color: ivory
-belly and paws: ivory and light cream
-eye color: sky-blue
-markings: light brown eartips, triangular head marking, dorsal stripe and tail in same color
-relatives: Aruna (mother)

-character:
She’s a very brave cub and if she should be scared she never shows it. Sometimes she gets lost in her thoughts or simply doesn’t react immediately if she gets called what could be a result of the violence her father did against her. She really loves Magnus like father but if he has his grumpy moments she’s scared of him.
To the other cubs she has a very good relationship. Best friends with Sandarsa, like a sister to Lisala and totally in love with Marius who promised to marry her one day.

-history:
Subaia got badly mistreated by her own father because she was born a girl and he wanted a son. He usually picked her up and tossed the cub around without taking care where she’s flying so that she often ended thrown against a tree or a rock.
First she was unsure about what would happen to her as the stranger with the fiery mane killed her father since she heard story about lions who kill cubs when the won a lioness but as she realized that Magnus was no danger to her she was happy that she could join him together with her mom.
She fastly fell for Marius and as he promised her that she will be his bride one day she felt like the happiest lioness in the world.

The names Lisala,Alahya and Sandasar are totally free created right out of my mind. I don't know if they exist in real or not and if they have a true meaning.

For Yalaz, Aruna and Subaia I found them in a book about horse names. Yalaz is turquish, Subaia is arabian and Aruna is sanskrit.

And Magnus and Marius is both latin.

If I seek for lion names that shall have a meaning I look through arabian,persian,turquish, sanskrit or african names.
