Neema

[attr="class","dropfrumbodytxt"]PERSONALITY Despite her rather gruesome appearance, Neema is an amiable character who only does thing's out of the kindness of her heart. She loves helping those around her and taking care of anyone who will allow her to. Before she got her scar's she was a friendly face to behold, always the first one to greet newcomers and make them feel welcomed. To this day she continues to show and carry that sweetness that she had before, however, it's a lot timider and more toned down than it was before when she was younger. Being blind in her right eye and left with disfiguring scars along her face has left Neema as an anxious ball of fur. She is much more hesitant of what other's might think of her and if her actions may cause any repercussions that harm her. She is always worrying extensively and is self-conscious of her appearance. Another prominent characteristic that presents itself is Neema's dreamy side. She's a big daydreamer and loves to think of the 'what if's' and all the alternate possibilities that could have happened. This dreamer side of her can make her seem aloof at times or out of sorts. Though she's definitely not thoughtless and is actually a very brilliant and logical feline who has a sense of war despite her wanting to avoid it. Neema not only has a mind for war but also has an obtuse sense of observation. She has an eye to catch what most wouldn't, she may be blind out of one eye, but she still has her left working and she still has ears that can hear despite many remembering that. Given her Omega status, Neema is submissive to those who hold a higher standing above her, which is everyone. She is overly cautious of her actions and alway's looking over her shoulder in case someone mean spirited enough decided they wanted to release their anger out onto her. At times this can make her appear skittish or on guard when she's snuck up on. Despite being scarred and having no hope for a future with her position Neema adopted the maternalistic trait. She is motherly to the young and old that she help's cares for and is protective of the youth in her clan. The role of being a Nannie never truly left the lioness. She still feel's the need to look out for and protect the youth and pupils of Skotadi, but know's it's no longer her place. She long's for cub's of her own, but know's the chances of ever finding a mate who would truly love and care for her is slim and she doesn't wish to rear cubs with bad blood and a mother known as an Omega who is blind and horribly disfigured.

APPEARANCE Neema bears a pale cream pelt that darkens along her face and legs. The same features that all of her kin portray. Instead of burning amber eyes that most of her kin bear, Neema has a dark brown, her right eye blinded from a horrible fight that she gained from her youth. Neema is average when it comes to comparing her to the other lionesses in her clan. Weighing around 250 lbs and standing at 10 feet in length. She holds a more slender and light frame with little muscle compared to her kin and clanmates due to lack of nutrition and neglect. Scars can be found all over her body from past beatings and fight's she was involved in. Her face where she's blinded in her right eye is horribly disfigured, making her appear more hostile and fearsome than she actually is.

HISTORY Neema wasn't actually born an Omega, she was born to a Huntress named Akanke and a warrior named Asim. Both were loving parent's who adored their only cub. Despite Skotadi's traditions and faith, Neema's parent's still taught her to respect the Gods and taught her the history of how the dynasties came to be. She was well rehearsed in Skotadi's history and made an effort to culture herself in the other dynasty's faith and traditions. This of course was looked down upon and she was bullied for wanting to know what the other clans were like. By the age of one, she decided to train as a Nanny despite her parent's objections and her ability to hunt just as well as her parents. She wanted to teach the youth of Skotadi that it was alright to help one another and that it was ok to interact with someone of a lower rank than you.

She knew it would be difficult to change such backward thought, but she knew it was possible if she could just persevere through it and show others. One day, she was tasked to watch an older litter of rowdy cubs as a test to see if she was ready to earn the title of Nanny. Overall she did well until she left for a moment to fetch some food and water for the cubs after their nap. Only when she returned they were gone! This was a dangerous situation to be in. She ended up asking her parent's for help, knowing their noses for hunting and tracking would be invaluable for hunting down the runaway cubs.

It was about 15 minutes before Neema found the cubs, having split up from her parent's to cover more ground. Luckily none of the cubs were hurt or worse - dead. She hustled them back towards came before she encountered a rogue that managed to get past the borders. He ended up attacking Neema and the cubs that she stood over. However, Neema's dad, Asim came in time to intervene in the fight. Neema's mother wasn't far behind him and helped Neema herd the cubs back to safety, leaving Asim to fight of the lone tiger. When they reached the camp Neema went towards the Nursery while her mother went off to warn the warrior's about the rogue and her mate who was fighting it. Neema watched them race off to defend her father and the Skotadi Dynasty. It was a long while before they carried back a limp Asmin and a weeping Akanke following next to the tiger who carried her dead mate. Neema was too horrified and shock stricken to go out and comfort her mother that night. Instead, she stayed with the cubs and kept them company, keeping them busy from the commotion outside. A day later Neema and her mother buried Asim and two days after that Neema was announced a fully fledged Nanny.

During the time of being a Nanny Neema lived a fairly peaceful life taking care of the youth and pupils that Skotadi gifted her with. Whenever she had a chance she would try to teach the young to respect everyone no matter their rank and taught them about Skotadi's history about the Gods. No one seemed to speak up about this, even the King and Queen let it go even with the mild complaint's that they received. So long as Neema wasn't doing any damage it was fine with them. It was when Neema started to question the current King and Queen's rule that Neema was finally punished. It was a day she'll never forget. It was when she lost her sight in her right eye and when she was demoted to Omega.

Neema's mother, Akanke, had been lost without her mate and suffered from depression. She would often times come to Neema and start ranting about the Skotadi dynasty, accusing them of her mate's death and then cursing the royal name. It just so happened that this night someone over heard Neema's mother's rant and went to report it. When Neema and her mother were confronted about it the next day in front of the King and Queen and the whole Skotadi dynasty Neema took full responsibility, despite her mother's protesting. Neema was brutally scarred as she was beaten into submission and humiliated in front of the whole Dynasty. She was revoked of her current standing as Nanny and was made an Omega. Since then she has lived the brutal life as an Omega all because of her mother's mistake.
