Cub: Mbaya joins the pride, shy and alone. King Fahari sees great potential in her and personally takes Mbaya under his wing; training her to grow into a strong lioness.
Adol: Mbaya had grown into a strong and quiet young lioness. King Fahari has decided he can no longer increase her abilities and has placed her under the mentorship of Kihisa. Mbaya is officially a huntress in training.
Adult: Mbaya is a fully grown lioness and upon completing her training, she became a full member of the pride. She joins Kihisa’s hunting party along with Nzuri. Mbaya is a bit socially inept but she loves her sisters and would defend them with her life, especially Nzuri, whom despite being a few months older, is like a littermate to Mbaya.
2y 3m: Mbaya has given birth to her first litter. Two beautiful daughters, Umbali and Kimya, have been born into the pride this day.
2y 7m: Mbaya’s best friend Nzuri gave birth last month. With their cubs only 3 months apart they spend even more time together. Mbaya is excited to watch their daughters grow up into strong lionesses together.
A rogue male came today and threatened the safety of not only Mbaya’s cubs, but Mgleveu’s and Nzuri’s too. Mbaya saw Kihisa motioning for her. Upon reaching her Kihisa explained that her cubs were old enough to be weaned a little early in the event Fahari loses this fight. She continued on by explaining that Kihisa’s adolescent son and daughter, would be taking them through the river and then hiding. Should Fahari lose, neither of the adolescents can return and will leave the territory with the cubs. Assured, that when worse comes to worst, this was Mbaya’s cubs best chance of survival, she handed her cubs off to Kukwepa. When she returned to help defend the lionesses with younger cubs, Mbaya realized that Nyororo, Kihisa’s son, didn’t go with Kukwepa and her cubs. She watched the fight in horror and was extremely relieved when Fahari and Nyororo won. She did give Nyororo a nice bonk on the head for not following the plan but was very proud of the young males actions.
3y 6m: Mbaya’s first litter has grown into adolescents, and both have been given the out date. Mbaya is filled with anxiety for her young. They may be older know but to her, they’ll always be her little cubs.
4y 2m: Mbaya’s daughter Kimya, was unable to find a new pride by her out date. While Mbaya is saddened by this, she knows that King Fahari will take her to the Giving Tree in a last ditch attempt to find a new home.
4y 3m: Mbaya has given birth to two new cubs! Her son and daughter, Mgeni and Neema, will not be staying with the pride but they are extremely beautiful and will definetly have no trouble finding a new pride when their time comes.
