This is my new character Kadu, he's the alpha of the Heartlands pride. myself and have been in the process of making a group for them for some time now, and I thought I'd finally get this guys ref done, I've changed the design and colours so many times, but I quite like these.

Physical Description: Kadu is a strong male, his is quite large and stocky, with a thick mane. His fur has many different coloured patches, although they all blend nicely giving him an over all khaki sort of glow. Kadu's mane is a dark brown colour, this contrasts nicely with his pelt. His mane tufts over his face, giving him a slightly shaggy look, although he thinks it makes him look cool.

History: born to the Alpha Adu of the Ohirof Pride, one born to rule; Kadu, the other born to go out into the world and find his own place; Sonar. Kadu and Sonar were twins, Sonar older than Kadu by one minute. Even though Sonar was the eldest, through his cub years he never showed interest in ruling a pride, never bothered with training and he was just happy to be. Kadu on the other hand always loved training, and showed his father great excitement and enthusiasm whenever alpha duties called. He had the build, the brains and the want to be a great leader, and so it was decided that Kadu would be chosen to rule.

Through their cubhood the brothers had the best lives they could, but when they grew to adolecents it was time for Sonar to travel and find his place.Kadu missed his brother, but continued with his Alpha training, although before Kadu was ready his mother and father passed away suddenly, and he was left to rule.

Kadu wasn't doing well. He was now ruler of the Ohirof Pride, after his mother and father passed away, he was constantly fighting off hyenas and other predators not too mention the rogues that plagued him day and night, he couldn't help but feel that this wasn't his place, not to mention how he hated being alone. To all the other lions in the pride he was simply the Alpha, he had no friends and no family he was floundering, and one unfortunate day Kadu's floundering was put to an end. A neighbor pride who had never really liked the Ohirof's decided to attack and take the lands for their own. Kadu was so side swept by this, he was not ready, and was over-thrown, he only just made it out alive.

Kadu ran from the lands that were once his fathers trying to find safety somewhere. He ran straight into the tracks of his brother. The two were happy to meet again, but both had heavy hearts. They took off as rogues together trekking to find a better place, a place somewhere far away, some where where they could find happiness and forget their pasts. The two grew into mature adults together, leaving their younger adolescent selves behind. One early morning as they were sleeping in a cave Kadu awoke with a strange feeling, he glanced to the back of the cave, there was light. Waking Sonar he decided to inspect it more, the two pushed through the back of the cave, moving the debris and rocks they were hit with a blinding light, and before them stood a wondrous land, this wondrous land was the Heartlands.

The brothers explored the lands that surrounded the mysterious large rock and savannah area. There was no one else here, well, there was two other felines; BLANK and Chord, they appeared a couple of days after Kadu and Sonar had found the Heartlands, BLANK had the idea to start a whole pride and a new existence here in these lands. They all got to work, and as they worked upon their new found community the felines discovered upon their arrival they had changed somewhat, and possessed new abilities. As other felines started appearing in mysterious ways, some amazing creatures with wings and powers, others normal forms of their species, all different felines from everywhere, all possessing new traits they didn't have before. Everyone arrived in different ways, everyone unique, some didn't even want to be in the Heartlands, but upon arriving felt at peace and at home. During this time Kadu and BLANK fell in love, ruling the over the lands together, Kadu didn't feel so alone anymore, he had his brother and his new beautiful mate, he was home. Although Chord had different ideas, as his dark powers grew he believed females were not to rule, when he approached Kadu about this he was furious and knocked Chord back, telling him to watch how he acts, and should keep those kind of thoughts to himself, but Chord couldn't. One evening he snuck into Kadu and BLANK's den, attempting to murder BLANK, Kadu awoke and fought him off banishing Chord to the outlands, upon where Chord set about collecting all male felines who wished to fight and claim to the Heartlands...

thankies, I worked hard on smexiness

Yeah, we've been tinkering around with it for about 2 years now, trying too find original ideas to put into it, and I think we've just broken through .

The general plot is the Heartlands are a land that felines just turn up in, they generally don't know how they got there, Kadu and his brother found their way by following through a cave, some think they died etc. but the thing is you generally can't get back. Also every feline that comes there ends up having a chakra, which is related to powers they possess, ie. Kadu's chakra is the earth, and his powers give him super-strength and the ability too feel where danger is in his lands.

There's other bits and bobs too, but yeah, that's the general gist for now. We wanted too make somewhere that's different too other groups floating around, but still with felines as I kind of can't stop making characters, and I fail at keeping a tab on all of them in one group

I'll link you too it when we've got all the final touches done
