Joining the Pride:
Onyx was found as a lone adult male lion and taken in by Jormangandr, where he confessed he was inbred, and cast out of his previous pride for it. Jormangandr explained that it was no issue here, that there were plenty of inbred lionesses in his pride, and that they don't judge, though he warned Onyx to not speak of it to the younger ones quite yet if he's truly upset about it, because children can be bullies. Onyx laughed and said he wasn't afraid of childish teasing, as they walked back to Jormangandr's pride.
Becoming the Heir: TW: Written Gore
After several months of being in Jormangandr's pride, he had earned his place in the pride. Jormangandr told him to come with him on one of his explorations. It was all going very smoothly, until a male elephant had arrived, it was angry, irrational, and aggressive right from the start, going straight for Jormangandr with his long tusks and angry, kicking feet. The elephant threw it's head around, waiving its tusks at Jormangandr, getting him in the ribs and tossing him several feet away. He got up quickly and roared at him, warning him to calm down. Onyx, being frozen in shock, also gets hit by the waving tusks. It grazes his left eye, leaving a deep scratch and no doubt a large scar later. This hit had knocked him out of his frozen fear, and he leaps at the lion's side, wounding it deeply with his claws. The elephant's rage and adrenalin had made it blind to its own injuries, as it kept attacking relentlessly, knowing that Jormangandr was the pride's male, he aimed for him. Jormangandr leaps towards his face, getting him in the trunk and mouth with his back legs and his eyes with his claws. The elephant shrieks and throws him off effectively by throwing his head to the side. Onyx leaps in once again and deals the final blow, striking him in the side once again, effectively opening the previous wound enough to force several organs outside of the body. The elephant went down to its knees slowly, life fading from it's eyes. Jormangandr gets up, watching with Onyx sadly as the elephant dies. "Rage infects all living things. Never succumb to it, or this will happen to you as well." Jormangandr ran through the last couple minutes again in his head. Onyx had definitely proven himself to him, and was incredibly strong, but he did freeze up when it had started. He nodded to himself, deciding Onyx would do wonderful things in the future.
