One Sentence Description: Long lanky tom cat with cheetah like spots.
Appearance: x. in the dark the cat is almost inpossible too see, in the dim light all you will see is his dark cold eyes. they are a light hazel brown. the are bright and alert at all times, always watching for danger. black lines directly under his eyes make others often think he had put makeup on. the lines get thicker as they glide onto his nose and they make his whole nose black. they don't stop there though. going even farther down it goes down to his upper lip cutting directly down the center. then his lips look as if he had black lipstick on. the black spots that are on the rest of his body are smaller on his face. they are on his cheeks and forehead, looking like a puzzle put together.
x. his thick tail is not as long as he would like. it is the orange color like the rest of his thin pelt. thanks to the thickness of his tail and the thiness of his pelt when he sways his tail it cools him on hot days. his tail is black tipped and has thicker hair. the spots around his neck join together and makes it look as if he has a black necklace on. on his back the orange and black stand out from eachother; most wouldn't think that his firey orange pelt could blend so well into the forest. the color he has works much better in africa though. below the orange color his stomach is a pale white color. the black spots die away smaller and smaller towards his stomach until there is total whiteness. his giant oval ears may seem very odd to the cats in the forest but in africa its what they need to survive. black lines trace all the way around the ears, enhancing the size.
x. claws and teeth are important in Africa, so they are naturally huge. Jelani is much bigger then the cats in the forest. He is around thirty two pounds, making him a very big threat in the forest to cats aposing him. His long thick fangs point a good way out of his mouth. All of his teeth are white and perfectly in line. Hes not missing one nor does he have any flaws in them. Jelani has huge feet to match with his long curved claws. Jelani was taught how to sharpen his claws on bones of the deceased, which means strong curved claws are a must have. They also are pearly white.
________________________________________________________________
Personality: x. the thick accent of the tom-cat signals that he is forgien. Jelani has a very short temper. His large size and deadly claws make him a threat. When angry jelani leaves, he knows he has too or he will lash out on those he loves. It’s a bad habbit and occurs more when kits are around. Jelani is a natural leader, he wants to be in charge and tell other cats what to do, how to do it and when it should be done. Though he knows if he tells Sadua this she will rip out all of his fur and leave him for scavengers.
x. Jelani is a sweetheart when it comes to Sadua. They had lived together in a tribe all there life and where deeply in love. Or well as in love as cats could get. Jelani hasn’t been a father yet and hasn’t yet experienced his own kits. From what he knows he is not to excited for them to come anytime soon. Jelani is also extremely spiteful. If his mate Sadua was to flirt with another tom, Jelani would be quick to rip out the throat of the tom and then go flirt with other she cats in his tribe.
x. murder is not an uncommon word to Jelani, its used a lot when he is involved. It may seem harsh but it is his way of life too kill those who are a threat to you or your loved ones. His first instinct is too kill, he comes from a place where it’s kill or be killed. If you wait to ask questions, your enemy will have his teeth around his throat in a second. Being the leader of his tribe he was the one who decided which kits where to be killed and which could live.
Likes: Jelani’s main thing is to kill prey, big little. All prey.
Dislikes: Thunderstorms, they only come during winter where he is from.

History:
x. kit: when jelani was a kit, he was one of the two kits chosen to live from the three that where born. Him and his sister where the lucky ones, they where passed by the leader as healthy and they could now receive names. His sister’s name was simba, yes a very uncommon name for a female kit but its what there mother chose. Speaking of there mother, she was not alright in the head. Once she became pregnant she became sick with the laughing disease. To cats in Africa it’s a common disease that claims to many lives. Jelani had many friends and was a very popular among the Tribe, even senior Tribe members knew about him. At a very young age jelani met sadua, a very strong beautiful kit.
x. when she kits learned that jelani had taken intrest in sadua many where ready to fight her, with all they had. Sadua and jelani became best of friend’s and all the cats thought they would be a very beautiful couple. Sadua was very popular with the tomcats as well, as kits jelani was already a fighter. Taking on all the tom kits in the Tribe and winning.
x. apprentice: x. when jelani became the age of seven star passes (moons) he was ready to learn how to hunt and fight and become a full tribe member. Two cats where assigned to teach him how to hunt and fight. In this tribe she cats hunted and males fought. Some she cats learned to fight though, like Sadua. And jelani had sadua teach him how to hunt. They where truly a pair of happy cats, until Sadua’s mother was murdered by a lioness. Jelani was extremely close to sadua’s family. It was hard for them and they had a difficult time coming through that.
x. warrior: x. when Jelani finally became a full member of the Tribe his leader had grown old and made him his pupil. this was a special honor in there tribe. it happened only once in awhile or if the leader knew he was going to die. corruption was not his thing and he tried to keep his leader alive as long as possible. This tom was like the only father Jelani ever had. his death ment jelani would be incharge. when jelani had turned twenty seven star passes his leader left to run with the ranks of the lions.
x. leader: x. jelani was young and unexperienced in the fact he was a leader. many thought they should remove him and put a senior member of the Tribe, the only one who had faith in him for along time was Sadua. the toll of losing his leader jelani became depressed for a whole star pass and became very thin. when a coyote attacked kits of his sister, he realized he had to be more of a leader. be more assertive and do his duty to the Tribe like his leader would have wanted. the first time he went to the nursery to choose the kits who would live, the whole tribe joined to observe if he was doing it correct. there where three litters. his sisters and two other female's. his sisters kits where both strong and healthy looking. they had the perfect markings and where both declared to live. the second she cat had three kits, two of which where very thin and frail. they where sent too be killed. the third she cat had only one kit, he was not to big and not to small. in the end Jelani decided to keep him. this was the ultimate thing that made the Tribe respect you. he did what he had to do to survive.
x. to the clans: around thirty two sun passes humans came with traps and guns. big guns, the ones they shoot at lions and make them sleep. Sadua had somehow knew what they where there for, they where there to take his Tribe away. Meeting in the clearing like the leaders usually did, they decided they must fight to keep there home, there way of life. all the male's set out to fight. the females that could where to stand on the outskirts. and the fastest of the cats where there to tell the rest of the Tribe if they must evacuate, should the worst happen. Jelani was leading the party to the four tall walls. ( humans shed ) There they made there attack plan. no cat knew how many humans where there, this proved that they where willing to risk here lives for the sake of there Tribe. when they attacked, many where instantly shot with real rifles. Sadua had not been chosen to fight, she was a runner, but when she saw Jelani get hit, a pointy red thing sticking out his side, his eyes droopy and his paw steps uneven she raced to the sceen. she was shot on the way. together they where shipped over seas to be sold illegally to people who wanted to own them. sadua and jelani where lucky to be pared together. soon after they reached there house they escaped and headed for the forest. it was kinda like back home, just no open plains with long grass. besides that sadua and jelani, being as survivable as they are made there home together.
IC Example: Not needed .
