ADOPTED FROM -TWILIGHTNIGHT-

Name: Chike (meaning 'God's power')

Parents: Tojo and Tama

Siblings: Emeka, Munira (half-sister)

Mate/Crush: Dekka

Personality: Chike as a cub was fun-loving and slightly goofy, liking to daydream as well as play rough with Vitani and the boys. However, when she left the Pridelands she became more focused and determined, prefering to wander off on her own for a while which causes her mother concern.  As she continued to grow older, she got even more hardened.Chike's main flaw is that she has a tendancy to imagine she is more competant than she actually is and so getting herself into situations that she can't get herself out of without serious injury.

History: Born shortly after Simba's acension to the throne, Chike and her brother Emeka were the result of a mating between Tojo and Tama when the later was in heat. Tama was left on her own with the two cubs as her friend, Kula, had died giving birth to her own cubs. She managed to make it to the Pridelands, starved and exhausted with her own cubs and Kula's yet unnamed little boy. She was met at the border by her older half-sister Zira who agreed to take Kula's cub as her own and named him Kovu.

Chike grew up in the Pridelands happily, befriending Vitani, Nuka, Rickon and Simba's own son Tanabi. The group was inseperable and Chike grew rather fond of the prince. However, one day, she, Vitani and Nuka couldn't find their two friends only to discover that they as well as Simba and Rickon's mother Sarabi had apparently been slain by Zira.

Zira was exiled not soon after and Tama then took her children out of the Pridelands because Simba suspected her of knowing that Zira plotted to murder not only Simba's own cub, but the last true born son of Scar, Rickon.

Chike was angry at being parted from the last two friends she had as well as devestated by Rickon and Tanabi's deaths. She grew to hate Zira for taking them as well as Vitani and Nuka away from her and was determined that one day she'd avenge Rickon and Tanabi as well as find her two old friends again.

She began to isolate herself from her mother and brother, secretly training herself to hunt and kill using whatever prey she could find. She refused her mother's help and also refused to tell her what exactly she was doing when she wandered off on her own for a few hours.

Relation to TLK: Daughter of Tojo and Tama
