She doesn't really like having a relationship with lions,but some are exeptional.She's not easy to break and is very strong,both mentally and physically.She's protective,of her ideas and of her family and friends. She can be a bit thoughtless at times,and quite childish but only when you get to know her.It's not easy to gain her trust,and she will most likely attack first and think later.She hates girlish things and won't hesitate to get down and dirty.In fact,she loves to roll around in mud and fight with the males.She's a bit of a loner,and won't really show her soft side.But,if she trusts you enough,you may be lucky enough to see her warm,fuzzy softy side.

History:She was born and raised in the outlands and stayed there for much of her life.As a young pup,she was always one to fight and she was never really gentle.Most of the time she'd challenge the male pups to a fight,and she'd win.This act of dominance made her feared throughout the others.They never went neared her and they feared that if they angered her,she'd kill them without a doubt.Her parents died when she was still very young,so she had no choice but to be strong.All she wanted was for someone to care.But,as said earlier,she was feared.Eventually,she was kicked out.

Finding food in the outlands was never easy for even a skilled lioness,so you can imagine how difficult a hyena pup found it. She was left hungry for far too long and she thought she'd die.But,she took this on as a challenge for strength,and if she died,she'd be weak and shamed. So,it was simply her will to be strong that kept her alive throughout the harshest of times.

She was saved,when vultures thought she'd be easy prey and decided to attack.She managed to take one of them down despite her weak state.The rest of the vultures fled in fear. Tisha ate the vulture,knowing the smell of fresh meat would attract others.She felt stronger and was able to go on.

She fled to the jungle where she rested for days,not caring what would happen.She decided; she'd live her life here in the jungle. There was water and food to live on.She'd be fine.And she stayed there.

One day,a strange lion cub wandered into the jungle. Tisha grown up at this point,yet she hadn't really come into contact with lions.She approached him and he seemd to be very afraid of her.She assured him that she wouldn't hurt him as long as he was alone. When he said he was indeed on his own,she promised not to hurt him at all.

She warmed up to the little cub,who she learned was called Simba.He was very secretive,but she didn't mind that.He told her that hyenas drove him away from his home,and Tisha told him the same thing which surprised the cub.She had a strong,motherly bond towards Simba,and always called him her pup.

Even though her bond with the golden cub was strong,she was never found of Timon and Pumbaa.She hated them,but since Simba found them as friends,she let them live.Naturally,they were terrified of her but Simba was their protection.

Tisha was sad at the fact that Simba grew up far too quick.But,she believed he'd never just go without saying goodbye.

She was wrong.

Nala appeared and then everything went bad.Simba suddenly left and Tisha instantly.blamed Nala. She ran after her 'pup',following her nose which lead her to the Pridelands.She never felt so close to her old home... But she didn't belong.

The place was in bits.Nala had beat her there,but that was expected.She was a lot slower than a lioness,so she didn't really care.

When Simba saw her,he ordered her out. Shocked,Tisha said who she was.Simba didn't care.He ordered his lionesses to get rid of her. Tisha was heartbroken and fled,going back to her homein the jungle again.Simba did feel extremely guilty but he had no choice. If his mother found out about his relationship with a hyena,she wouldn't have it.

Tisha never trusted lions again.She stayed in the jungle,alone and heartbroken,until her death.
