Hey guys, I love collecting flavour texts, and thought it would be cool to collect Grandpaw ones in a thread. Please feel free to contribute any you have/get.

Personality: Candid (Kind)

As you prepare to patrol your territory, you notice Cub spending some quality time with Grandpaw Kaiten. How nice. "Uh... where do cubs come from? Well... you see, little one, when two lions love each other very much, or like each other enough, or hate each other--" Wait, what?! You quickly snatch Cub by the scruff of their neck and run away. They are too young to have "The Talk"! (cub page)

Young Cub didn't want to play chase with their siblings today - instead, they decided today was a good day to take a nap with Grandpaw Kaiten, who doesn't seem to mind Cub clambering over him. (cub page)

Grandpaw Kaiten decided to lend a paw with bathtime today, and was given the particularly cheeky and troublesome Cub. Grandpaw Kaiten threatens to ground them if they don't start behaving. (cub page)

Cub was a little too frightened by the talk of their adolescent siblings to train today. Some gentle coaxing from Grandpaw Kaiten eventually brought them out of their hideaway, ready to train if Grandpaw Kaiten was going to be there. (training)

When the night falls, a gaggle of young cubs who've just learned to walk clambers over Grandpaw Kaiten and asks for a story. The old lion chuffs before he gets into a cautionary tale of that one time you got stuck in a tree after you played a leopard in a game of pretend. (grandpaw's page)

"When I was a youngster," old Grandpaw Kaiten says to the cuddle pile of cubs in front of him, "My father and I had to save the pride from floods. The rain didn't stop for days, and our food got washed away..." (grandpaw's page)

"I should tell you about the time I met Menhit," Grandpaw Kaiten rumbles as the lionesses nudge their cubs towards him for story time. "She was a beautiful lioness; spirited and stubborn... and that's just the start of it." (grandpaw's page)

Personality: Heartless (Evil)

Grandpaw Casimire corners a small group of his grandcubs as he tells them a story about how he used to kill cubs that were not strong, nor worthy of his pride's name. The cubs nearby all tremble slightly, trying their best to show their Grandpaw Casimire how strong and brave they are.

Several cubs ask Grandpaw Casimire for a bedtime story. Grandpaw Casimire agrees, and tells them in great detail about the many lions he has slain. The cubs are very quiet for the rest of the night.

Cub follows after Grandpaw Casimire as he goes out on a patrol. Cub spots an injured dik dik hiding in the bushes, and with a snarl, Grandpaw Casimire orders Cub to kill it, saying that there is no room for mercy in this life.

When Cub starts playing a bit too rough, Grandpaw Casimire harshly swipes at them, eyeing them ferociously. Cub whimpers and flees, their tail hiding between their legs. Maybe Grandpaw Casimire just doesn't like games?

Saddled with story time, Grandpaw Casimire takes some delight in telling his grandcubs about the magical stone that he sent so many lions to in order to please Apedemak. "One touch is all it takes," he purrs. "Don't you wonder how painful it is to die?"

After spotting Cub push over one of their siblings in the mud, Grandpaw Casimire pulls them aside and, with pride, tells them they should always take advantage of the weak.

Cub ends up wandering a little too close to Grandpaw Casimire as he sleeps. Grandpaw Casimire snarls at Cub and aims a swipe at them before they scarper to the safety of the other side of the den.

Cub seems upset that they've lost the race. Grandpaw Casimire spots them moping around and approaches them. He leans down, and you can see his mouth moving as he murmurs something to Cub. They sharply gasp, then ask, "But won't they get hurt?", to which Grandpaw Casimire chuckles and responds, "Of course. But it will teach them not to cross you again, won't it?"

Grandpaw Casimire spots the weak little Cub running as fast as they can from the training field in terror. Cub dashes by and lets out a yelp as Grandpaw Casimire smacks them across the rump in rage at their fear.

Cub slowly slinks back from training, trying not to catch Grandpaw Casimire's attention. A huge paw suddenly knocks Cub over, and Grandpaw Casimire is roaring in their ear about their failure to train well today.

When Cub refuses to train, Grandpaw Casimire corners them and growls that if he were still king, he would kill Cub for being weak. Needless to say, Cub is suddenly very enthusiastic about training.

Personality: Unscrupulous (Evil)

Grandpaw Daimos sits in the shadows with Cub, and you're just too far away to hear everything they're saying; you certainly heard Grandpaw Daimos pass on some of his more nasty parlour tricks to his grandcub, though.

Cub darts around the den, laughing and giggling before Grandpaw Daimos sticks a foot out and trips them up. Cub falls on their face and begins to sniffle, unable to hold back the waterworks as Grandpaw Daimos calls them weak and pathetic.

After you told off Cub for stealing a toy off a younger sibling, you spot Grandpaw Daimos pull them aside and grossly encourage that sort of behaviour.

"Bad and naughty cubs get sent to the Celestial Stone to atone for their sins," Grandpaw Daimos grins toothily. When asked what the Celestial Stone was, his grin grows darker. "It's where I sent away all the little cubs who weren't good enough. They were turned into stardust. When you get turned into stardust, you die. Slowly... painfully... and all for my benefit."

To terrify the cubs tonight, Grandpaw Daimos tells them about the demons that he made friends with - and tells the cubs that the demons use cub bones as toothpicks, and play games with cub eyeballs.

Gathering as many cubs as he can, Grandpaw Daimos tells them about the championships, and how he rose to be the champion above everyone else. It takes all the self-control you have to not run over and tell your cubs that their beloved Grandpaw cheated at every turn.

After Cub failed in training today, you spot Grandpaw Daimos whispering to them in the shade. They part ways as soon as Grandpaw Daimos realises you're watching, and Cub is suddenly all ready to try again.

When Cub is exhausted and concedes defeat, Grandpaw Daimos snorts and tells them to be selfish, and that they should always win - losers die, and Cub isn't a loser, right? With Grandpaw Daimos looming over them, Cub wants to try training once more.

Cub is pushed over by some of their stronger siblings, and Grandpaw Daimos roughly picks them up and tells them they have to start being underhanded if they want to get anywhere in this life. Cub proudly declares in front of everyone that they're going to win.
