Alongside her brother Isokan they will rule the pride together as they grow. Kibir has an ever optimistic nature and is a fantastic huntress from an early age. This brings her to the attention of the brutal lead hunter Igazi, who is thinking of finding a mate soon to produce a suitable heir to her position.

Kaidi adores his cubs and revels in bringing them up. In return Kibir loves being with her father, eagerly awaiting his return every night and bouncing around the royal den when he is home, much to the amusement of her mother.

As she grows she proves to be a capable diplomat and naturally takes charge of her and her brother's business. Her parents are proud of the future joint rulers and can retire leaving the pride in two good sets of paws!

She grows into a large, strong adolescent, partly down to Hananne bringing her and Isokan extra tidbits of food..! She is a dedicated scholar and huntress, and her parents wonder how they got so lucky. Kaidi adores her and spends his old age with both his daughters and they all often exchange tales and anecdotes. Launuka watches with happiness - she is often accompanied by her teenage son Isokan, and the family is finally happy and content.

On the eve of her and Isokans crowning, she can barely contain her excitement, helped along by the impending arrival of her first litter. Her brother doesn't share her enthusiasm, and she looks at him carefully, flexing her massive claws. She knows he is worried about their parents age, and although she will too miss them when they are gone, she knows that they will always be by their sides in spirit.

She often visits the grove with her father where the ancestors rest, and is forever in awe of the spirituality of the place. When the pride moves again, she reassures her father they will move closer to this place.

With the dawn of their reign, a lot has changed in the pride. She talks to her brother about who he will take as his queen. He looks surprised, and tells her, "You are the queen, my sister. I won't be taking another."

She blinks. Then realises her brother is more of a horndog than she realises and laughs loudly. She tells him so, and he says nothing, but smiles wickedly.

Kibir knew her mother wasn't a young lioness when she and Isokan were born, but the news that she had passed one bright morning, before the twins had reached three and a half, was a shock to the family and pride. Kibir screams in shock and runs to her mother's side, joining her grief stricken father, and running past her brother, who is paralysed with shock and upset.

She isn't buried in the traditional royal place, but close by in her favourite rocky cave which she decorated since she was a cub. The family sit and watch as Shisheeya performs a small ceremony, wishing her safe passage and to find peace with her mother. None of the family wish to leave, and the shaman passes on a message for each lion separately before ushering them out to let Launuka rest in peace.

Kibir ponders on the message left by her mother through the Shaman. She knows that her mother was closer to her brother than to herself, but nevertheless they still very much got on. She smiles at her mother's last message to her that the strongest needs to be the wisest, and runs to be with her family.

"You playfully bat Kibir over in greeting as you approached, and Kibir squeals in glee. You keep tussling with your paws for a while."

"First one to the den got to stay up later than the others! Oh, hey, Kibir won! +6% training experience!"

"Kibir greets you cheerfully and abundantly as you pass her on your rounds."

"Kibir, Queen yawned and itched her ear, however she clawed her own cheek pretty good. They gave you an embarrassed look and scurried away."

"Kibir, Queen spent some time stretching and clawing at a favorite scratching tree. The tree only barely survived the process."

"A strange lion refused to back down from your threats. Kibir, Queen appeared and flexed their paws menacingly... Well that was quite effective."
