Description
One of the finest bands in the world who began when best friends Mac, T.K. and Ray discovered their talents in music, while in High school. In the years that passed, these three were eventually accompanied by Z, Lola and the twins, Jenny and Benny. Soon enough they became a huge hit for audiences everywhere ranging from concerts to weddings, even to birthday parties and after seeing the success of the band in the months that followed, many managers wanted to sign them up for a contract. However they prefer to remain a freelance band since they believe that they themselves, and the music they play are all the managers they need.
Members include...
Mac C (Lead Guitar): A Guitar-playing Cheetah and lead singer and guitarist for the Preds. Before he T.K. and Ray first assembled the band, he was classified as a typical nerd, always spending most of his time in the chemistry lab in his High School. However after taking up guitar, he came up with the idea of performing in a band with his two friends, T.K. and Ray. After a successful performance at an annual High school talent show Mac gained an extra boost of self-confidence and traded in his regular glasses for a pair of shades and a refusal to ever put on a shirt again. After becoming the appointed leader of the band he tries to take as much responsibility as possible to make sure his friends get everything they deserve and has become well known for his signature sunglasses and the belt of guitar picks he wears over his shoulder.
T.K. Snapper (Bass Guitar): A laid-back Snapping Turtle and bass-guitarist for the band. Before he, Mac and Ray first assembled the band, he was a constantly bored Cello Player for his High School’s marching band. However after Mac came up with the idea of performing in a band, T.K. gladly gave up his Cello in exchange for a base guitar and made the decision to put some excitement into his life. After a successful performance at the High school talent show, he and Ray appointed Mac their official Leader and all three of them decided to go for a career in music. Since then, T.K. developed a change in attitude, and though he may appear to be still constantly bored, in reality he is just always keeping a calm head and is always relaxed. However he has been known to bite people who push his patience and temper too far.
Ray Lupin (Drums): A hot-headed Grey Wolf, Mac's best friend and Drummer for the band. Before he, Mac and T.K. first assembled the band, he was a nervous Library Assistant in his High School. Needless to say Ray was the hardest to convince to join a band due to his nerves and his constant claims that he didn’t have any rhythm. However Mac and T.K. managed to get him to play the drums after witnessing that he actually did have rhythm without even realising it. After a successful performance at the High school talent show, he quickly began to develop stronger nerves and in the years that followed with the band, began to develop a massive ego and often gets into trouble due to his short temper when it came to dealing with paparazzi. He also has a massive crush on "Z" and often tries and fails to win her affections ever since she first joined the band in later years, however despite the constant rejection T is too stubborn to take no for an answer.
Elizabeth "Z" Wolf (Keyboard / Keytar / Synthesizer): A passionate Grey Wolf and Pianist for the Preds. Before she met the band, she worked as a waitress in a Coffee Shop, where the band was playing at the time. Due to her love of music and the fact that she hated her job, after the Preds were finished performing, she asked if she could join them. After considering the fact that they might need some female vocals and the use of other instruments to be successful, Mac, T.K. and Ray decided to give Z a chance and let her audition for them. After an astounding performance with her Keytar, (also converts into a synthesiser and a keyboard) Z became the fourth member of the Preds. While she likes spending time with her friends, she tends to get really annoyed by Ray’s constant attempts to seduce her and always enjoys the rare occasion when Jenny accidently deafens him with her trumpet. Even when faced with apparent evidence, Z remains dismissive, sarcastic, and sceptical until she knows without a fact that something is true.
Lola Von Hare (Tambourine): A reserved Hare and Tambourine player and vocalist for the band. Before she met the band, she was stage manager who worked in a theatre in New York. When the Preds came in for their performance, T.K. lost his voice due to coming down with a case of Laryngitis. Luckily, after hearing Lola singing while she was working, Z offered her a chance to perform on stage and take T.K.’s place during his vocal parts. Though sceptical at first, Lola eventually decided to give the band the help they needed and performed brilliantly while she was on stage with them. Since then she was become a permanent member of the band. She is the quieter, more reserved member of the band, rarely having outbursts of emotions, however when she is on stage she becomes an explosion of vocal echoes, with her voice being so beautiful she draws the attention of both men and women. Ironically enough, she is also the only Pred who actually isn’t considered a carnivore in the Animal Kingdom.
Jenny the Bat (Trumpet): A fun-loving bat, Benny's twin sister and Trumpet player for the band. Before she and her brother met the band, the two of them had just graduated from High School. However after several attempts to get a job, she and her brother had no choice but to play their instruments on the street in a desperate attempt to get some extra cash. Luckily, one of the people passing by was Mac, who saw great talent in the two bats and decided to allow them to audition for the other Preds, after which both of them were gladly accepted into the group, and the band became officially known as the 7 Preds. Jenny’s outgoing, hyperactive and often speaks and acts in non sequiturs. She also usually tends to over react whilst playing certain songs and sometimes plays her trumpet right into Ray’s ear. However despite the constant tomfoolery nobody else in the band seems to mind it due to Jenny being one of the most likeable members.
Benny the Bat (Saxophone): A wise-cracking bat, Jenny's twin brother and Saxophone player for the Preds. Before he and his sister met the band, the two of them had just graduated from High School. However after several attempts to get a job, he and his sister had no choice but to play their instruments on the street in a desperate attempt to get some extra cash. Luckily, one of the people passing by was Mac, who saw great talent in the two bats and decided to allow them to audition for the other Preds, after which both of them were gladly accepted into the group, and the band became officially known as the 7 Preds. Being the saxophone player for the band, Benny's usually calm and is often seen either playing his sax or listening to his headphones. Being the complete opposite of his sister Jenny, he prefers the quiet and gentle music the band plays and tends to bond more with Lola due to their calm demeanour. However he has shown to have a wild side whenever he and his sister perform songs they both agree on.
