A gift from a neighboring territory to the territory of the King Kierr , Ja'mii was not even old enough to open her eyes when she was dropped at the Kings paws. She was given to Malibu, to raise alongside her son, the Prince, Malicierr. Ja'mii, growing up in the Top Tier of the pride, and coming from nothing, became very full of herself, often claiming that she was more important, prettier, smarter......well, you get the idea, than her pridemates. Particularly nasty to Astami (who was a close friend of her adopted brother, Malicierr) she soon drove a wedge between her and her brother. Frustrated and not taking the blame on herself, she isolated herself until Makea and Kanea joined the pride. She took them under her wing (figuratively, as the lionesses were still older than her) and made her own little group within the pride; however, the damage had been done, and when Astami joined the Top Tier after her mother left, Ja'miis position was compromised. She dropped from Top Tier to Second Tier, among her new friends. Furious, Ja'mii hated Astami for "stealing" her brother, and when she learned that Third Tier Khaj was one of her brothers closest friends, her blacklist only grew larger.
Ja'miis first heat wasn't easy; she despised the idea and hated every approach the King tried. Still, she eventually got pregnant, and slunk away spitting and hissing to have her cubs. The litter had two sons and a daughter, but the little brothers died soon after birth, too weak to suckle. Ja'miis heart was torn from her chest as she left their bodies behind to return to the pride with her surviving daughter, Mija. If she could ever love anything in this world again, it would be her tiny daughter. Sadly though, Mija grew up under the protection of another lioness, and she was kept from her mother in the fear of her influence on the young cub. Her fury was constant, and she lost the few friends she had made in Top Tier. They blamed her for being dropped to Second Tier, so she was shunned by majority of the pride. Mija took her place in Second Tier when she became of age, and she was demoted for the last time to Third Tier. Her second heat was as difficult as the first, for she had come to despise King Kierr. After a spitting fight, however, she would go on to bear one last cub for him, a little daughter named Jemma. Ja'mii guarded over her night and day from being taken from her, though she feared that this would give Jemma a disadvantage in the pride, for her own name was tainted beyond repair. She loved her cub very dearly, so she gave her up to her old enemy, Astami, so that she could grow up with a good standing in the pride. Ja'mii was nothing without her Jemma, so sadly the King Kierr traded Ja'mii off to a new pride, the pride of the Good King Krassuss. King Krassuss fell in love with the vile lion almost immediately. He was determined to show her a better life, a happier life, so he opened negotiations with King Kierr to trade for young Jemma. The King Kierr quickly saw how cared for Jemma was, and chose to give her to her mother's new pride as a gift, to Krassuss' and Ja'mii's immense gratitude. Krassuss subsequently made Ja'mii his new queen, and Jemma his princess, for his former queen has chosen to become the pride's healer. Since then, Ja'mii has been learning more and more about the life and traditions present in her new pride. Though plain, Ja'mii fell in love with Krassuss after a few months of being his queen, and her first heat in this pride lead to the birth of their current prince, Harnen.
Retired with the Good King Krassus (now named Renegar in retirement) when he decided it was time for King Mical to take over.
