Theraphosa Blondi, the Prince of the Savannah

"You know you are as small as the things you let annoy you
And you know you are gigantic as the things that you adore."

Cresting over a hill, a lush shrubland rolls out below you. Just beyond it stretches a dense jungle, bird and bug song trilling out from it and barely reaching your ears as a whisper. You start down the incline, ears on a swivel, listening out for lions this territory may belong to.You are walking for several minutes before you notice a dark shape in the vegetation stalking toward you; a young male lion, crouched, observant. You halt in your trekking, head lowered and tail raised.

The male raises his head, standing at his full height once you've noticed him. He's large, muscles rippling under a dark brown pelt. He regards you once over before speaking in a light and soft tone, a voice that does not seem to match his build. "Welcome to Incarnation. I am Theraphosa Blondi- please, refer to me as Blondi. Theraphosa is the family name." He turns his back on you; obviously, he trusts you not to make a rash decision. He flicks his tail. "Come, we'll feed you tonight after your travels, and you can choose to part in the morning if you would like. Of course," He glances back over his shoulder, a friendly gleam in his eye. "You are always welcome to stay."

Personality; Fatherly, firm, soft spoken. After the death of his father, Blondi took the mantle of [King] over the pride. He wasn't necessarily prepared for it, a young and still uncertain male, but he believes in Apophysis's theory about the spider god to his core. However, the new [King] differs from his father greatly in leading style. Apophysis was cold, distant, demanding. He commanded attention wherever he was, running a tight ship, and expecting thorough and diligent obedience from his lionesses and cubs. Blondi experienced that far worse than anyone, and wishes to avoid the faults and wrongdoings his father made. He consults his older lionesses as consultants, and is more than happy to spend time with the cubs. He is not a pushover however- while he speaks soft and tries to emulate a nurturing aura, he is firm about a few things when he must be. He is not afraid to put his foot down, but he will rarely do so with anger.
