A King for someone quite special.
Nnvernios or "Vernios" (Looking to make a story with this Lion? Just let me know! I have 13+ years of role-playing!)
โค๏ธ True Love โค๏ธ
The Dearest King of ๐๐ช๐ฒ๐ต๐ช๐ฑ.
๐ผ๐ก๐ค๐ฃ๐.
With the fire crackling along the night. Nnvernios, a young Lion saw the world differently than your typical King that swore to protect his people. Honorable leaders with the courage and skill to continue the Pride. He rather saw the world as a place where entities watched over them- how their actions were judged upon of what they have done and much more ideals that were stuck into his head. To protect his people using their ideals and judgement.
Though this was not always the case.
In his younger times, "Vernios" was a energetic and grateful little Cub. Running around and minding his own business; playing most of his times alone due to his different looks and the way he acted as a young lad. Thus most of his time as a younger cub was adventuring on his lonesome- finding out the different places of where the Pride stayed at. Not minding this at all, the young "Vernios" had a lot to grow off of, hoping one day he could make a friend.
That fire continued to burn.
๐ผ ๐๐๐จ๐ ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฃ๐, ๐๐๐ข๐๐ ๐๐ค๐ก๐๐ง๐.
As the "Cub Years" of "Vernios" continued and almost to a close, his own wandering and shenanigans continued. Coming home everyday to his old small den and then going out majority of the day, taking each day all to himself. Though his wishes came to be- those hopes that he kept had came to him.
He made a friend.
An older Lion, Grandpaw Solari. Once rightfully the King of the Pride he was apart of, Solari had became the true friend of "Vernios". Taking care of him like he was his own Son. Whether it'd be bathing him, carrying him on his back and taking long walks with old stories to tell; it was this that made "Vernios" happy. Finally seeing as he had a great friend- a legendary figure that was in the Pride that he could brag to all the little Cubs about. Well . . . that is what his younger self would have done. But he realized there was no need to when he could just show it through the interactions that he and Grandpaw Solari have. This was the beginning of something new and nice . . . something that he himself could finally appreciate and love.
Though things were about to change.
๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ค๐ค๐ฃ.
With "Vernios" in his adolescent years, he continued to strengthen his bond with Solari. Now hunting and performing patrols with the other Lions, he proved to be a formidable and excellent hunter with exceptional combative skills. Whether it was against other and bigger lions or even some other animals that they would kill for food and other various things for the Pride. And with "Vernios" getting older, those stories that Solari told got more mature, and soon told the reality of the obstacles and problems that he would face overtime time. With those wise words, the young "Vernios" continued his way through his Adolescent years, entering into Young Adulthood; aware of what was to come and the problems he was going to face.
Though even the smallest of things can change ones view.
One night, "Vernios" was leading a patrol and finding food for the Pride, in the deeper parts of the savanna. Everything seemed normal, though weird things started to occur- whether it'd be the lack of animals around, or even the lack of sound. Complete utter . . . Silence. A large mist surrounded the patrol group, and thus- all that was seen was a Half-Moon reflecting through the grey sheet of mist. But that's where it all hit- a shadowy figure attacked the patrol killing a handful of them, including "Vernios". His carcass laying there on the ground- lifeless . . . those purple eyes now clouding, the patrol was lost to an unknown entity.
๐๐๐๐ค๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐๐.
The Catastrophe left the Pride in panic- as the Lions did not return. Though . . . on a stormy and gloomy day as the Lions in the pride gathered around for their lost members, friends and even seeing them as family, a figure was seen on top of a larger hill walking down slowly. As the lions of the pride went over to see what it was- it was no other than "Vernios" returning with nothing but himself. Scarred and cut up to all hell, with two, silver horns that protruded from the top of his head and out of his glorious mane. But how? How did he survive- no one came back . . . his wounds were fatal but he was still standing!?
The clouded eyes of "Vernios" looked to the pride.
"๐ ๐ฌ๐๐ฐ ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฆ."
"๐ง๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ผ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฐ๐ต ๐ฎ๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ฒ ๐๐."
"๐ง๐ต๐ฒ๐ ๐ต๐ฒ๐น๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐๐ผ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐น๐ฑ."
"๐ง๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฎ๐น๐น."
"๐ ๐ฎ๐บ ๐ก๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ผ๐."
And with him saying his own name, it echoed around, with a Murder of Crows flying around him and landing by his feet. With horns forming onto his head and a loud eruption of purple flames formed onto his claws. And finally, a flicker of purple glimmered in his eyes.

'After ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ was pushed into the mud by an elder sibling, Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ was the first to pick them up and give them a bath. Even as ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ sniffles, Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ gives them some good advice on what to do next time.'
'๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ wanted to play "Lion, Lion, Hyena!" with their siblings today, but they were pushed out of the group and teased for being a little crycub. You were about to go over and see if they were okay when Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ arrived, telling the little cub not to mind the others too much, and that he would be happy to play instead. Brightening up immediately, ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ clambers up onto the great lion's back and the two go off to play elsewhere, while Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ tells an interesting story about meeting a lion called Apedemak... or was that Apollyon?'
'Nothing would calm down the wailing ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ until they were passed to Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ's paws. The old lion smothers ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐ with his mane until they start giggling.'
'When ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐พ๐๐s darts to Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ with a small rodent in their jaws, Grandpaw -+/\๐๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๏ฟฝ tells them how wonderfully they'd done, and says they'll make an excellent hunter in the future.'
