Pride traditions:
Scout aging ceremony - occurs every half moon
When light and darkness are evenly displayed in the night sky. A small fight between a scout and the scouts chosen lion is to happen. After the fight is over which is called upon the king's roar. The two butt heads and the scouts sit just behind the king in a straight line. Once all battles are over the king approaches each scout and gives them a rank before butting heads with them. Once done the king and newly ranked lions look out to the pride and let out a proud roar, which is usually joined in by the rest of the pride. Signaling the end of the ceremony.

Pride history:
The pride has held this new land for for awhile now, this new pride was founded by King Kaz with the last survivors of the cursed midnight pride. They made the plains their home and formed an alliance with the riversnake and stonefang prides located to the east and west.

The other prides:
StoneFang Pride
StoneFang Pride makes it's home in the desert. They are a very hardy and rowdy bunch. They find comfort in the extreme heat and have a keen sense of smell that helps them locate water and food in their territory. The pride is full of colorful and explosive personality. StoneFang is often associated as being hotheaded and stubborn. Many members have scars from fights, hunting incidents, and just overzealous rough housing. Yup just some rowdy lions having some fun in the sun.

RiverSnake Pride
RiverSnake Pride is a very large pride. With two kings, three queens, and a pride consisting of thirty other lions not including them.

They are a very tight-knit group who just adore one another.
