Name: Ryu
Name Meaning: Dragon
Gender: lion
Age: 20 months
Species: Panthero Leo (lion)
Position: Pridelander
Appearence: Ryu is quite a handsome lion. He's very large, hence the meaning of his name, dragon. He's a normal lion colour - a light golden-tan. His mane is dark brown, very long and bushy, with streaks of black. His eyes are deep brown with flecks of black. His body is pretty much pure muscle, causing him to look rather menacing. Ryu has a torn ear and a thin scar branching across his nose.
Personality: Ryu is not the nicest lion. He has a pretty big temper that he doesn't keep in check a lot of the times something annoys him or makes him angry. He's never been close to other lions because he believes he's not good enough for them, that he'll hurt them. It's like his pain and emotion has been sitting inside him for so long that he's gone sour. However, he is not cruel, simply waiting for someone to reach out to him and reveal his true personality. He does not like fighting, and when he does, he is very careful.
History: Ryu's mother abandoned him shortly after his birth, for she did not want a cub. Ryu grew up hating her, even though he had never met her before. His father died of a deadly disease. Then, shortly after his death, Ryu found his mother. However, he did not know this, and attacked her. He triumphed over her, and she ran away. When she appeared a few weeks later, dying of an infected wound, he did not have the heart to chase her off. However, she told him she was his mother, asked him to forgive he for abandoning him, then died. Ryu has never forgiven himself for causing his mother's death, and believes he is not good enough for the other lions. So, he is never friendly towards them to ensure he does to forge a friendship with them.
