Story : Badru was born to the same pride as Nuri , one of the half brothers that was lost . When he was lead away into the desert with his brothers and sisters ..Badru didn't think much of it . Just an adventure . After the first day though they all started to get hungry , then tired....It was later that they were found by a few stray heynas . The cubs turned and ran , but quite a few were caught....Badru was too young to really understand...After a long time...as the cubs lay ready to die..too tired and hungry to think...They were rescued by some humans who ran a preserve near the place . that didn't last long . When the cubs were well again they were sent to different places . Badru went to a zoo in china with two of his half sisters . They were raised for awhile but Badru was isolated pretty soon for being so needy and unable to learn while his half sisters tried their best . After awhile he was sold to a travelling circus as the zoo just didn't want to deal with him .One thing everyone had always noticed was that he never did well on his own . He liked being around others . At the circus Badru was the youngest lion there and the older males wouldn't pay any attention to him . He was alone and depressed when he saw Phil . Phil was one of the pair of zebras new foal and very playful . He was also alone...like Badru . Despite their differences the two became friends and though Phil's parents were upset at first they soon grew tolerant of the young lion cub . As Badru became older the owner of the circus decided to exploit his odd friendship and Badru became known as the gentle lion . He wouldn't harm Phil...or his parents or any of the other animals for that matter..no matter what even if he was poked...prodded , starved or almost forced . A trick people loved to see was Badru keeping his mouth open over a Zebra's head on command without doing a single thing . Others liked to see how affectionate he was towards them . Later Badru learned that what he ate came from animals...just like Phil . He stopped eating . Badru became a sort of pain to the circus ...in that he wouldn't eat any meat but had to have a mush like mixture of foods given to him . It was the circus however that dyed his fur and mane with such unusual colors . The owner thought it would look good . Not long after though the place went under...and a charitable orginization bought Badru and many other animals to re-introduce them to the wild . To say the place was out of it's league was an understatement . These people didn't take very good care of the animals and when the time came they were re-introduced without any experiance . Most of the time Badru lived off plant life and insects but never any actual animals . He wasn't accepted by any prides ...because he couldn't hunt ..he couldn't do anything and to top it off he didn't even eat meat . Lonely and confused he wandered until he met Nuri one of his half sisters though he didn't know it . She seemed more than happy to take care of the confused young lion...and they have been together ever since .


Note : Badru is still pretty young so his mane hasn't grown in that much yet ...and also on his name ...I picked it before I'd even realized someone already sort of had it ^^' sorry 'bout that .

history : Born into a laboratory that experimented on animals ….Danso was the third of a set of brothers …His two older brother’s , Odion and Kato….where twins..and nothing like Danso . Evil and twisted they thought only of escaping …though indeed the idea was not wicked . The place was a house of madness…Filled with insane animals…..experimenting with them the scientists pushed their limits…not wary of the effects this would bring . Odion and Kato were intelligent…..fast….strong…And hungry for freedom . When Danso was born he surpassed them in power…The power of knowing . Whenever Danso wants or needs information…It comes to him…He cannot remember later …but still…His brothers decided to exploit this…One day …Odion surprised the humans by opening his cage..and then proceeding to open his brother’s ….Once all three were out…The two large lions pushed the little cub towards a panel.Frightened by what they might do if he didn’t help…Danso entered the code.Setting all the animals free. In the chaos his brother’s attacked and took him along to open every door they came across . Once outside they ditched their little brother , leaving him for dead . Danso wandered for ages….Alone and unable to take care of himself…Surviving only by scavenging . He didn’t think of naming himself….Later though he ran into his brothers …who stayed with him enough to teach him how to hunt. It was later though that they left him again …In the claws of a strange pride when the two were caught wandering and stealing , leaving Danso to take the punishment . He got the scars on his eye from this…And limps on his right hind leg . Later on , paranoid and alone he wandered into a human village and was taken in by the residents . They named him Danso….Because you could always rely on him to figure things out . They thought he was clever …for figuring out where their food was , their drinking water , how to play games….So they gave him the symbol DameDame….Growing into adulthood Danso was large , but lacked a full mane . After awhile though he was once again led astray by his brother’s who needed his….”help” After the success they abandoned him for the third time , scaring Danso even more ….He wandered for awhile , jittery and fearful , searching for the village and knowing he would never find it again . It was while still wandering that he met Moyo , another one of his brothers . Unkown to all three , Danso had been a twin as well .

He , along with the others were left to die in the wild since they had no experience …Luckily for Moyo he was taken in by a pride and tolerated thanks to his power of healing ….they taught him to hunt and fend for himself …But soon enough he was tired of being treated like dirt for looking different . Leaving the pride…with his rear end intact thankfully …Moyo wound up like Danso ….In a human village . They too gave him a symbol and a name because he was clever , smart and kind ….In Time though Moyo set off …in search of his brothers , not knowing what to expect from gossip amongst cage mates …Though in many ways Moyo was like Danso…he wound up different . Rather than becoming paranoid , untrusting and jumpy , Moyo always tried looking on the bright side . After Awhile he met his twin , and after hearing the lion’s story Moyo told his own and the two realized they where related . Unlike Danso though he has never met their older brothers and doesn’t know how cruel the two can really be ….He tries to take care of Danso who needs someone to rely on , but that's a big job….
