I have kinged Snowlick at last! I am working on updating all his information a little at a time. His design, alas, is not finished, and as I'm still looking into Piety marks, will not be complete until some time in November. So in the meantime, please enjoy a 50sb discount for as long as it lasts! I just missed Wet Season, I know, but breedings for Smog or his other features are always welcome!

Karî was Kinged late last night! She's a clean G5 Ruffian with an Incubus mane, up for studding at 250SB! Pay with 1GB and you get 6 refunded breedings! Some lore below cut:

Bêavii was retired early to make room for Karî, something that I haven't done with any king before. In-Universe, this is because he died amongst all the chaos of the Heaven vs Hell war. Bêavii was not originally a bad person, but he was crowned at a very young age during the droughts. His rule was stalked by one misfortune after another - first the horrific droughts, then the locust plagues, then an outbreak of rabies, then a literal apocalyptic war. He felt helpless. How could he protect his lands, his lionesses, his cubs, from all these threats that loomed so large?

Every King before him had offered kindness to non-Pride lions, but Bêavii turned away from that path. Who could blame him, he thought, for making the selfish choice? For putting his own Pride above all other lions, when the world was coming down around their ears? Maybe his Pride would be safe if he joined with the darker forces. When the world is being ravaged by monsters, isn't it safest to be a monster? So he joined with the forces of Hell. He fought and he tortured and he desperately hoped it would be enough. And that choice doomed him.

The fires and demons of hell dogged his path. As Bêavii sought to bring misfortune to others, he brought misfortune wherever he walked. The lush jungle of his territory was already so weak from the droughts and the locusts. It's no surprise that the sparks caught. His world became choked with ash and smoke. He carried as many cubs as he could. He fought for so long to give his lionesses time to swim across the river. And when he could fight no longer, when he couldn't breathe past the ash, the demons came for him one last time. And his world became ash and fire forever.

As the Pride lionesses trembled in the wake, they found themselves leaderless. Their King was dead, their home destroyed. But as they picked their way through the burnt landscape, one lioness stepped up. Karî began organizing the Pride, checking on injuries, delegating tasks - she began leading, not because she wanted to, but because someone had to. She, too, was royalty, descended from the First King Sor by way of Bedengii's daughter.

The lionesses crowned her in the moonlight, at the top of the Temple of Ancestors, as was tradition. No past King came forward to offer her their pelt's colors, but every single one of their ghostly shades was there in the swirling mist. They knew Karî would need to make her own path. It was time to let these colors die with Bêavii.

Karî knew that it was Bêavii's cruelty that had doomed him and the Pride. The war was still raging, rabies was still lurking, and their territory was turned to ash, but Karî declared that there would be no more cruelty. It was time for a return to kindness and love. What little they had, they would share, and what mercy they could offer, they would. The only way to rebuild what they had lost was to rebuild it together.

My Ember manz is gonna retire! He's stepping down on the 19th as planned! He's sired 4 Embers, only 3 are still living, and a number of gorgeous golden children! Bring your girls this week, he's got 14 slots left! Feel free to toss him a saltlick for Snake eyes! 300sb or 1gb!

Any remaining requests on the morning of the 19th will be tried 10 times before being rejected. The next king will be a clean Black base, so feel free to come back for Arabica! Link in reblog!

HERE COMES A SPECIAL BOY! I'm super excited to king Moss Ball! As far as I know, he's the second double Moss Agate Felis king on site! 10 marks that should look fantastic on Cream cubs, Corpuscular eyes, and a Razor mane! My clean passable mut fee has gone down to 400 from 500, and as always, there's the GB option for convenience.

Kucheza has been crowned! Kucheza is a G1 Velvet, with Onyx Soft Rosette, Struthio Eyes, and a Royal Mane. Kucheza has almost 1900 stats, and will probably become a Pie/Patches come Black Friday. The stud fee is 250 SB or 1 GB, with 1 GB giving you 5 refunded breedings! ID number is #148865.

Kucheza is the result of a breeding project to get Steele Margay onto my king, and was born waayyyy earlier than I expected, so they’ve just been kicking it in my pride for like 4 months while I waited for Ukombozi, who I had kinged only a few weeks before, to get old enough to retire. Her name means “dance” or “play”, and she just wants to have some fun! A good peace-time King to bolster the Pride’s spirits after the long months of famine and war. I think he’s pretty chill, maybe a little immature, but he’s strong enough and his lands are peaceful enough that he can get away with it. I can’t decide what their gender is, so I kind of just cycle through pronouns and use whatever feels right in the moment.

Good 'ol Zodiac Adrift. I never got another Leonid out of him, but I got a good bit of cubs from him I enjoyed. He's set to retire in 5 days' time, so since I roll my side only on weekends, that puts the earliest retirement date at March 24th, at which point he will be succeeded by my G2 Colorbomb Haruspex.

I'm thinking maybe I will open up breeding when I roll over, I'm just worried I'll forget to turn it off. We'll see how that goes.

Haven't had the spoons to advertise my new Deshret king. I did, in fact, name him Subdural Hematoma. He hasn't got a single studding request yet. I admit he does look somewhat unsettling, but I rather like a lot of the cubs he's produced so far. I finally got him over 900 stats, he was difficult to train. He is a combo factor, like most of my main kings. Breed to Nefer, Wepwawet, or Ra for a chance at the Ra base.
