Pine was born to her mother Sequoia before she had settled down into Tarkus' pride. For the first year of Pine's life, the two were wanders, moving from place to place, until Sequoia finally felt it was time to settle down. By the time Pine joined Tarkus' pride she was already a year old, and had a very hard time relating to the other cubs of the pride who had grown up together. She comes off as very cold and distant, as she struggles to let her walls down and grow close to other lions. At first she tried to take charge of the other cubs, being slightly older then them and unsure how to relate, but quickly discovered that the other cubs simply didn't listen to her and continued on as they did before. Her first reaction was to lash out at the other cubs but quickly backed down when Kion challenged her. Since then she has withdrawn from the other cubs, mostly keeping to herself and diving into her hunting practices with the older lionesses, however she is slowly warming up as the younger cub has yet to give up on her and is constantly reaching out and trying to include her in things.
While it too her time, she finally began to feel closer to the other cubs and like a true part of the pride. Mink was the first to really reach out and bond with here, and from there she also became close to Mink's littermate Fuchsia. Eventually she bonded with the other cubs too, and by the time a new wave a young cubs was born she felt confident in her place within the tribe.
After growing up, she has become much closer to the other lions of the pride, becoming especially close with Mink, the first lion in the pride who truly accepted her. When her younger sister Iblis was born she doted on her, and now that she is a bit more grown, she loves getting the chance to teacher her to hunt and protect herself.
