[Pre Group History]
Born to a now disbanded nomadic group of lions, Tishala had a comfortable life, though not without a few challenges. Her parents, whilst adoring their daughter, had a rather friction-based relationship with each other. The older she got, the further apart they grew. By the time Tishala was in the midst of adolescence, her parents acted civilly, but as if they were just another member of the group. During the same time period, the group of wanderers she was a part of...found another group...of settled lions. It was perhaps a few days into staying there when she met her beau, Fikiria. The young lion with his mane really starting to kick in, he was charming and immediately smitten by the golden lioness. It wasn’t long before it showed that both of them had strong feelings for each other. Those feelings only grew, and once they both reached adulthood, they became one, a small ceremony confirming it. As smitten as the couple were with each other, neither were blind to the situation with their merged groups; they weren’t safe. If there was any organised attack, they would be vulnerable, and it wouldn’t even have to be a big group. With that, the two announced their departure, looking for a new place to call home. Why not a pride? Word along the wind was of a pride in the jungle. With her recent discovery she was carrying their unborn cub, Tishala was particularly insistent on the pride. Shortly before they arrived, Tishala and Fikiria welcomed their daughter, Razuni, into the world. Once in the oasis, Tishala and Fikiria were met by the vanguard, where the small family took their vagabond status, both adults speaking for their very young Razuni.

[Personality]
Positive
+Mental Strength - This lioness is the living example of mental toughness. If she is in a tough spot, she will not be the one to buckle under the pressure. Such is her mental fortitude that she has achieved feats that not many who knew her, thought she could achieve.
+Intelligent - Physically speaking, Tishala is nothing exceptional. She’s nothing to laugh at either. However, the lioness’s mind is sharp as anything. She has come up with a fair few interesting ideas, ranging across many matters. This intelligence had also lended itself to the lioness coming up with astute solutions to various problems, solving them. She does like a mental challenge, such is her confidence in her capabilities
Neutral
= Sarcastic - This is great for her to show a sense of humour, usually in a light hearted manner at her expense, rather than at anyone else’s. Of course, she has joked with others, but always made it clear there was no malice in her intentions, just a harmless bit of fun. However, sometimes, she finds it difficult to flick the ‘off’ switch and can say something in that tone, and someone misinterprets her words as serious. This can sometimes land her in difficult situations.
Negative
-Self doubt - Tishala can be prone to bouts of self doubt, where all her usual skills diminish to an extent they’re barely noticeable. These bouts could hit heaviest if she felt responsible for something major going wrong, or even something minor. She can maybe dwell on that too much.
-Stubborn - A sort of flip side to her mental strength can be her refusal to back down on something, just assuming it will be a battle of willpower. This can be controlled, but usually someone has to snap her out of it before she can take a moment to reassess, think and answer.
[Trivia]
Tishala is my first ever OC, initially thought of in early 2019
Her original colours were paler and less ‘golden’ they are now
Despite not being a fan of early mornings, she will always be up before the rest of her family...a self-named “curse” she inherited from her mother.

NPC Purpose: She is Razuni’s mother and will be there to guide and look after her daughter as she grows up, as well as be there for any friends she may gain herself. She would be happy to lend herself to any role.
Playable? This NPC can be turned into a playable character by all means, though I am not interested in playing them myself. If you are interested, then DM me, so I can give you a bit more info about her. At the end of the day though, I am intrigued to see how someone else might portray her.
