Akhira *Shaman*

The dark navy lioness is a striking sight to see, even if she isn't a bright, dazzling color. The contrast her white eyes have to her dark coat is stunning, and as she never had a need to (she's never disclosed why) vocally speak before she joined Karalius, she has trouble pronouncing some sounds. Her voice is a deep and low, though pleasant voice, and she rolls her R's and rarely pronounces W's as V's, instantly marking her as exotic. Akhira has had no trouble making friends in Karalius' pride, and is a generally nice girl- until you mess with a cub. Her claws are unnaturally elongated (they barely pose out even when sheathed), and when they are unsheathed and her teeth bared the usually smiling and tolerant lioness is suddenly terrifying. With Akhira snarling in your face, it wouldn't take long for you to back up- she's even managed to give Karalius a good slap in the face to send him away. She is protective of all of the cubs of the pride, and often cubsits while the mothers are away.
Akhira is the pride's first Shaman, and takes her duty very seriously. She is stern and serious when she is in her Shaman-mode, but still retains her friendly attitude when she isn't working.
