The Navi Pride needs our help! Our Informants have passed on that the Navi Pride ( A pride of lions ) had a huge flood that destroyed their home and left many injured and missing! This is the perfect opportunity for the mysterious pride that the 'nera had been trying to find information on- is left open to be infiltrated!
ALL the ranks can participate!
A bunch of 'Nera will be dispatched to help build homes and help healers take care of the wounded. For Entertainers, they will sing and dance to help lift the spirits of these wounded lions to keep them distracted/ease the stress from the devastating events. Others can help look for lost lions! Ambassadors and Scholars, this would be the perfect time to learn more about these lions! What are their weaknesses and strengths!? Remember- the 'Nera is there to HELP THEM. No threats are allowed or aggressive behavior unless your character is just a grumpy helping butthole. <3
The Navi Pride will later have plots with the 'Nera! So this is a great time to participate!
The missions subforum has been redone! We are still working on putting in some more missions, so check back with us every so often! There should be mission prompts for every rank by the end of the week! Some already have prompts! Check out the Missions Thread if you are looking for some action and to raise in rank! ( Should definitely start collecting mission points, we will be working on a point only event soon! )
Our first Champions of the pride are: Raging Fire and Shadow's Retreat ( Names will be replaced with their real names once we get them in the joining thread ) CaliWolfe & Syrius Lionwing!
New owners to our first batch of racers- Mysses Greenie, Tanakako, and Excited Apathy!!
Thank you for all those that participated, and welcome to the pride new members! We are excited to have you in the pride!
A new meta and some events are just around the bend so keep yourself posted and HAPPY ROLEPLAYING!
September 29, 2016 - Overhauling!
The whole pride is getting an overhaul in information and every forum in it. So keep an eye out and check back through the stickys and announcements often for new information on the pride! Any suggestions can be posted in the [ Open Discussions Thread/Plot Recruitment Thread ].

OOC: Janja'Nyoka + Nanashi, CUSTOM CUBS open! To be apart of the FIRST royal cubs that will have big plots later on. I wish everyone would try and compete to snag a custom cub from the litter! You know- they are from the Bosses after all!
Monday, January 10, 2011 - We are retiring the old Mafia Recruitment Concept thread because we're going to remake it in to a FULL ON BIG PLOT thread in its place!
Say goodbye! To:
Pride: This pride is where the finest females are bred to perfection and have males at their fingertips in the forms of companionships. Much like the concepts of geisha's from the Japanese culture. They also bred killers and fierce strength here, runners, and protection ablers here. For a price. In Kuroi'Nera. Mating isn't required and it is NOT inforced- but everything comes with a price... If you have the right connections you can have a bodyguard or a girl at your fingertips... Consorts, moving your pride from one land to the next.. or get an air that is perfect.
Rp Collection for pride banding: [ xXx ] [ xXx ] [ xXx ]
Open: We are open for pride member concepts ! If you'd like ~ Just post a form here and we'll add it in as a member and as soon as you get that soa~ We'll make it an offical member.
NOTE: ALL LAWS AND RULES CAN BE BENT [ Just dont go crazy XD; keep it in some level of common sense; abuse of the bending of the rules will cause some enforcement ] IN THIS PRIDE EXCEPT THE PRIDE'S SECRETCY. Nobody can bring a rogue in and say 'hi this is my pride'. They have to be knocked out and dragged so they do not know the location of the pride. Anyone who is currency or trade have to constantly go with their section's Council member to venture outside the pride lands to sell their skills. That is all I really ask <3. Have fun!
We are pleased to know that we have another mafia gang coming up as well. Although we would love you to stay, if your character doesn't fit or you don't like our particular look on the pride- we have our neighbors - [ Familia-a-Upadre ] For your eyes only :3.
Jan 14, 2011 ( 9:21pm est ) -

More OCC:[ PRIDE PLOTS ], This thread is now recycled to be SPECIFICALLY for OUR Pride plots! If you want your SOA added in to any of the categories, use the forms below them! Or PM this mule!
January 26, 2011 - With the closing of the combination event and our winners. We hope you all had fun and we will be doing one again really soon! Also. I have a few updates!
+ We would also like to welcome a few new members to the 'Nera staff since its getting bigger and more cooler stuff is being added. So PLEASE welcome -----+ kn staff , Is our newest mule! This mule is specific for missions pms only. So any of your missions questions- ASK THE KN STAFF mule. So we can keep it origanized. The people whom work with the missions are Chi Sohma and our new member~~~~ -----+ Lorne_Sionn, Our New Missions Expert! He will be the one you go to for everything missions! Other than Chi. -----+ Day Dreamer427, Is our new member updater and helper around the pride. She'd also help with any updating and she will be the person that will make the Bloodline images. But please give her time to wet her feet first.
+ NEW RANK : MERCHANT, The head Merchant is already chosen, and will be updated when he gets his five rps. But the rank of merchant will be the ones that go off in to the roguelands and other prides to set up a trading system. They can sell many things such as items or slaves, this is overseen aka managed by the head Merchant. This is only the selling part of the missions. NOT any other missions will be held by the merchants.
+ New Ranking system coming soon! The only thing you need to know RIGHT now. Is if you are going to move up to a rank that is restricted, hard to get or not usually given out to a certain species. You MUST HAVE an rp with one of the leaders GIVING your soa THAT specific rank. It must be rped out and given to as a link in the special notes section when you get your recert for that rank. For example.
The new rank Right Hand. Mana needed 5 rps, and + a rank change permission from Nyoka. That rank change will only be done when he had his 5 rps completed. It may also be the 5th one depending on how many rps your character needs. But that rank change permission rp will now be added to his 'special notes' giving him permission to have it on his cert.
If you would like to apply for a higher rank, please use the plot thread or joining/updates section to ask for one and see if you qualify first.
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011 - OUR MISSIONS THREAD IS OPEN FOR BUSINESS!
April 12th, 2011- We will be announcing teasers about the new upcoming Meta-Plot! So stay tuned for details!
+ Regarding the mass family moving ( Aiko's litter ) should not cause for alarm. If you are not apart of the litter, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. These decisions were OOCly made by their own owners for their own reasons. This does not affect any other hybrids.
+ We also have clarifying/new rules set in place so please be aware of them [ HERE ]. Mainly clarifying Hybrids and Sexual prefs in characters.
+ All ranks can now participate in missions. Aka had to make clarifications ^^; Sorry about that. The pride was constricting the can't leave - and the missions. But now it should be all straighten out. June 9, 2011 - For all of you looking to UPGRADE your characters ranks. This announcement is for you. As we started to see an increase in people who rp. We decided to make it a little bit easier as we felt it was slightly too much to go up in rank inside a class. So we are making it a little easier!
We added a new class called Upper Class, They are not royalty but they are higher than High class. Their in between and are HIGHLY regarded. These hold the ranks, Council, Okaa-san, and Right hand. These are prime ranks and are higher and harder to get to. Now. What does this mean for you? All those aspiring for something great, we made it easier.
If your moving from class TO class. It will still be 5 rps. ( ex: Middle to High Class ) To move WITHIN a class it would be 2 rps. ( ex: Currency to Geisha )
For that, it also is the reason to not just go from 2 rps from geisha to council as it is significantly higher in the totem pole than just a geisha. But from currency to geisha it will only take 2 rps.
In terms of Class - ( Middle class ) - Entertainer , ( High Class ) - Currency , ( High Class ) - Geisha, ( Upper Class ) - Okaa-san
July 31, 2011 Meta plot outline and threads will start soon~ Be cautious and aware that we will be posting them once we have some revision because we want to make this AWSOME!
28th of January, 2012:
Hey pridal folks! <3
This a quick OOC message to let you know that I'm stepping down as co-owner of this pride.
Why? I'm starting my first year at University come March and I don't have the time to keep up with the OOC management of this pride and it's plots. I'll still be around the subforum of course, roleplaying as my studying allows, I just won't be OOCly in charge of the pride anymore.
If you have any pridal queries, you should direct your questions to Chi Somha or the Pridal mule.
What does this mean, ICly? Absolutely nothing, at the moment! Nanashi and Nyoka are still IC rulers, and Seiji is still leading the pride while his parents are absent.
The meta will continue as planned. IC ownership will change at a later date as plots progress, but as of this point, nothing changes ICly with my stepping down. <3 -Velvie 2nd of March, 2012: + Attention please. It has come to my knowledge that the Member's list is very much outdated. I have kept up with it but for some reason. I'm missing litters ( cubs/juvs ) members, all new members etc have been added. So if you had a litter, PLEASE post it in the [ Joining/member update thread! ] It is very important! To double check if your cub/juvs have been added, check the, [ Member's List ] out! I really need your help guys! Please remember to post litters!
+ Also, if you haven't already seen, the meta plot's phase 1 has started! The summary of phase one is shown in the first post. Please make sure to read it and even check out the outline of the meta! Join in on the fun, there will be plenty of chances to win FREE SoA, Most are even pre-itemed! To check it out, click the link below!
7th of August, 2012:
[ Meta Developments ], please head over to this thread to keep in the loop of what's going on within the pride's meta!
All out war.
:: // OC Intro // :: The next phase is coming up in the Meta, I know its been long but irl was sucking the time right up. But we're back in the roll! Noticed all the breedings for the 'Nera and congrats moms and dads- but some things you have to look for in the IC situations from the meta. Please be aware of them when rping! We're not discouraging you at all! War brings death and lives too! Bare with all the changes, after the meta there will be new ranks coming in and a bunch more prizes to be given out!
7th of October, 2012
October: We're Taking Over! // Meta END // Out with the old... IN WITH THE NEW!
The Meta is finally meeting it's end.
The inner civil war of the pride had taken way to many lives and Seiji, at the foot of all of it's problems and back stabbing by his own brother made life unbearable for anyone! The living conditions went from gold- to rot and fights broke out uncontrollably~ Many tried to take the thrown away from the Boss, but still staying strong and fighting off the inner corruption of his council, something happened. Where everything seemed lost and hopeless... The winds.... shook the ground..and had blown everyone in the pride down to their stomaches and throwing them around like ragdolls as a tornado [ Permission from Goddess of Tornados plot ] formed...
When there was a day full of riots.. Emi, The Princess Rumored to be DEAD, is fully alive and taking over! Her rebellion came in by storm, and one would think that in a pride full of fighters- there would be more of a fight.. But after having fought within each other made them vulnerable. Fighting those that the tornado could not take down.. While those in the rebellion remained untouched. There, Emi took advantage.. and got up within the ranks. Relieving her brother from the torment of being the Boss... She brought in new life- and squashed and pin pointed out thoughs that had been corrupt.
The 'head' of purists, Her brother Hosoku that fell in love with the Leopard named Rhea. Stood together behind Emi, Rhea, having played a hand in the easy take over by her visions.
Having them displayed either by death or by being enslaved.. She came up to the heightest rock on the ground level of the crater. The once innocent, oblivious and naive child had grown in to the leader her mother Nyoka always wanted. Secretly, Nyoka's back up planned worked.
"My People. I Stand Before You, as not only blood of my parents but I stand before you as salvation.. You have torn each other apart, we were once a great pride.. Now look at you. Laid in shambles and killing off each other like rogues! This is not what we are like! This is not what we stood for!" Her face full of power, and inflamed determination.. Having befriended Gods that stood at her side to back her up. That WOULD listen.. They HAD to.
"So now that I tore you apart.... we shall rebuild.. and begin anew! An era of strength AND intelligence."
New Alliances! + Usafi'tukufu Lands - For Our Leopard Alias! + Makono-epesi Lands - For our Lion/Cheetah Alias! + Kulinda'Maua Lands. - Mostly cheetah Alias, Our Sister Pride ( Janja'Nyoka's UNCLE is King ) + Arranged Marriages are also available. + We are still open to more alliances!
OOC: A few things have changed! + Anyone in middle class can now give joining rps! ( lower than middle class can NOT ) + New ranks will be added soon! + New Contest! ( In the works ) + Cheetahs will be held higher but! Other Felines and Canines have to go through a trial to be deemed a 'cheetah' equal. ( More on that soon )
ICC: Much has changed! + Seiji has stepped down from Boss Man. + Emi has stepped UP to be the new Boss Lady. + With the New Rebellion taken over, rebuilding is in order. + Missions are open, and the pride is no longer on lock down. + Gods will be welcomed in to the pride to visit or stay. + New respect for hybrids are given, especially those born from a God. + The arranged marriage section has a new form added, for cub owners to offer up your cub to inner or outer pride marriages! + New Ranks, mean new respect levels, and as well as working together. "No body gets left behind rule." You may still not break your cover, but you better be damned sure when the close is clear you come back for your comrade! + Communication to different prides are in order, and those who wish to move are welcomed to move to allied prides only without hassle. + Cubs can begin to leave the tunnels and play around the crater but they are restricted to stay off the walls/top part of the crater! + Curfews have been implemented once again but extended, if you leave for a full day- The Nera will come after you and you are punished if not found to be doing something productive or by orders of the royals. + Cheetahs will be held higher but! Other Felines and Canines have to go through a trial to be deemed a 'cheetah' equal. ( More to be explained soon! )
30th of January, 2014
January: Wellness of pride, contest, member updates and new ranks!
----------------------------------------------- Current/New/Old Member Status ----------------------------------------------- Please be reminded one and all that the memberslist is very important to current rpers wanting to find plots. ___ If your character is no longer with us, has a new litter, or you are simply just a new member joining through missions/friend. ___ PLEASE UPDATE US ON YOUR CHARACTERS! NEW LITTERS, LEAVING MEMBERS, ETC. PLEASE HELP! ___ We would like to keep our memberslist up to date, and the next mass update is coming up soon.
Also included as a member update, Tabia ( Owner: Lorne Sionn ), due to in-activity is now put on 'leave' until further notice, Abhishri ( Owner: Saint Sergio ) is now her stand in as the Entertainer Councilor. Cordinating all the dancers, performances, celebrations, and pretty much the ins and outs, and care of all entertainers. Takes care of all their needs and keeps track of debts within. They give rank, and take away rank and can submit any entertainer to slavery. This councilor oversees entertainers, Geisha, and Okaa-sans. Ajani ( Owner: Club Snails ), has been appointed as the connections councilor. All Ambassadors, Informants and Racers are to report to him. Before anyone goes on a mission, you may speak to Ajani for any Ambassadors, Informants and prides that you may take refuge in while your on your mission.
___ A celebration is being conjured up soon, we are gathering prizes and such for the big day ( The Heirs' Departure ) and we will welcome one and all for your participation, including prizes and rp events. Don't miss it! ( An exact date will be done up soon. )
----------------------------------------------- After the meta -----------------------------------------------
___ The 'Nera started to rebuild. Alliances began to bring in new blood, and missions have started to slowly open. The morality in the pride is iffy between old and new members, but the now Gods that visit the ‘Nera have opened the eyes to some. The pride is ‘Mafia’ themed/based and with Queen/Lady Emi bringing in this new ‘spiritual’ aspect in their pride, has left others with a bad taste of the new royalty. Other than that, things are going well going smoothly with other species and hybrids having to ‘prove’ themselves to be of use to the pride to gain respect. It is earned not given. But after respect is earned, they will not be treated as badly as they would as an incoming rogue would.
___ Now the pride is starting to work like clock work.
___ After the dust settled, Boss Lady Emi announced that she will be marring Buluu ( Owner: Izzy ). Their marriage was a huge one considering that she was now with children. The celebration lasted two days. And when she finally gave birth, she showed them off to the pride. The rejoicing of the pride has giving a good feeling to the lingering dis-heartedness.
___ ( After the major thread hiatus ) Months/Years have passed since the day of the take over. The Boss's children have been studying diligently, trained etc to be respectable members of the pride. Now they are of age....
Boss litter news: ___ Any of Lady Emi and Boss Buluu's litter can participate in the 'crowning' event. Those that choose to be ‘in the running’ for crowned heir, will be sent off to the roguelands to fend for themselves for a ‘year’ and they are to return to their homelands. They will have one body guard monitor them throughout their time in the roguelands. The bodyguards are not to help nor give hints of survival.
___ Each of the royal litter has one bodyguard ( since birth ) that is to swear by them, and them alone. Alas if not for the Boss man/lady. You can iccly collaborate that with any 'fighter' or those in the Mana/Katapatan bloodline.
The Pride's Protection: ___ The pride now has the Goddess of Tornadoes protecting the pride with a huge tornado that surrounds and covers the pride. Those that are meant to 'harm' the pride, the tornado makes it impossible for them to pass. If you do not have knowledge of the pride, it will also make it so you can not pass and if you do- its with a slither of your life.
----------------------------------------------- NEW Council Ranks: We need these positions filled! -----------------------------------------------
Health Councilor: ( Unoccupied ) ___+ Responsibilities: That keeps track of all the healing done within the pride.

This councilor oversees Ambassadors and Informants that help keep a healthy Connection.

This councilor oversees citizens, incoming rogues, and slaves. Missioner Councilor: ( Unoccupied ) ___+ Responsibilities: In charge of all the missions that take place within/out of the pride in its entirety. The missioner is the one who lets everyone know of whats going on, what they brought back and what needs to be done. This councilor is not restricted to any one of the lower ranks. All ranks can come to the missioner to apply for missions.
----------------------------------------------- NEW Ranks: A few new ranks were implemented. -----------------------------------------------
+ Informants – Those that live outside the pride and harbor missionaires, and are a source of infomation outside of the pride. + Priest/ess – Those in charge of shrines, and giving thanks to the Patron Gods and other gods.
