bio : chiku was born around the same time as moyo and meambe, her great grandmother tiifu was very old at this pont and nearing the final years of her life and it was by some merical that she lived to see chiku's birth.growing up chiku was very attached to tiifu and when she wasn't off playing with her friends she would be by tiifu's side listing to her tell stories of her own cubhood.
being born around the same time as moyo and meambe led to chiku devloping a crush on moyo at a young age she would fellow him around trying to get him to notice her in any way she could, though moyo would always try to avoid her as much as he could.
undeterred by this chiku would usual go to tiifu and ask for advice on how to get moyo to notice her, even though sometimes the advice tiifu gave her didn't always work chiku liked using their talks as an excuse to spend more time with her.
when the cubs were slightly older a cub around their age named hiari was left by her parents in the pride's care from what chiku was able to find out from hiari her natal pride was at war with another pride and her parents had left her in the pridelands to protect her.
as a young adult chiku was chosen to be the new hunt mistress after the former hunt mistress stepped down due to old age which surprised many of the pride sisters who believed that chiku was too immature to handle such an important position.
determined to prove that she could handle being hunt mistress, chiku took her duties very seriously choosing hiari to be co - hunt mistress along side her and leading her fellow huntresses on a hunt that led to them catching a rather large water buffalo that earned her the resepct of the whole hunting party.
it was also around this time that chiku's relationship with moyo changed they became mates and a few months later chiku gave birth to her and moyo's twin sons : mtoto and tambo.
