Mari

Mari, short for Marigold, is a very chill, very relaxed lioness who, when not hunting for the pride, can often be found lounging about in the plains, enjoying the sweet scent of flowers and reed grass. A lot of the lionesses in the pride like to joke that the color of her back and her ears comes from pollen stains, and she rolls with these jokes, laughing lightly, commenting that, paired with her vibrant blue fur, she's certain to attract a few confused bees here and there.

So far, her life in the pride has been simple. She was enticed in by the king, who had startled her with a loud, bold roar that had made her paws tremble with a thrill rather than fear---and she'd ended up following him home. She didn't find the prides king to be suitable for a mate, however---he had a rather unpleasant reputation; and so, her paws led her to the kingdom ruled by king who some heralded as being an angel; he was good with cubs, and despite his initially frightening appearance...his presence had been calming. She'd visited his pride for a few days---tails had twined---and eventually, she left for home happy, and would later learn that he'd given her a parting gift; his cubs. She loves them dearly; and she dotes heavily on her daughter, Honeysuckle, who aspires to be the prides best hunter one day.
