Who Is Concord?
Hey stranger, been a long while since I've loved you or anything.
The real Concord is the man in my profile picture, an OC I created years ago when I was only 13 who's become such a massive comfort to me. He helped keep me alive during my roughest times, along with the other characters in his universe. He and his friends have become something of my own little fandom, and I project and AU them into everything I love, ahaha.
The lion Concord, however, is the result of an RMA project that's been going on for a year or so. It started with a lucky piebald ukame an old friend of mine failed from a raffle lioness clone breeding, and it expanded from there into finishing him and then RMAing his daughter, named after his canon daughter, Rory. King Concord is a clone of this Rory, and I do intend to continue RMAing him and another of Rory's clones. While it's given me a gambling addiction, lol, I'm positively love-struck by the fruits of my long labor.
I'm excited and hoping to spread his bloodline and traits around for everyone. :)
Okay, What's He Like?
I'm leaving you with this here, okay? Over and out there.
Like with all versions of Concord, this man... er, lion, is an absolute sweetheart. He is the therapist friend, the one who's your ride or die, the one who shows up at 3 am with chocolate and cookies after the worst day of your life. He would drop anything and everything for the people he adores. Even for strangers, he goes out of his way to show every ounce of kindness he has in his massive heart. He isn't a pushover, though! He's had a rough life, and he knows how and when to put his foot down. Despite this tough start, he's known to be optimistic and ambitious; although, he would risk it all for his most beloved. Namely, he cherishes his big brother Tove, who is more of a father to him, and his partner Min-kyu, for whom, in one AU, he puts his life on the line to bring them back from zombification. He also loves his daughter Rory, of course, but due to circumstances, he isn't able to know her very well in many situations.
In the Lioden world, he awakes as a tiny lion cub... with one catchβhe remembers his entire previous life as a human! He struggles to fit in with this bombardment of knowledge, and he can only think of his friends... Tove, his big brother, Min-kyu, his beloved, Harriet, his sister-in-law and one of his best friends, and Ariel, the funny little boy who Min-kyu all but adopted. He wonders if they're also out there... and as soon as he comes of age, he makes it his mission to seek them out, no matter the cost.
Additional Info
Honey, it's in the stars.
Human Concord is Welsh and Indian. He still retains those subtle accents. His voice makeup is very interesting with all the influences!
Concord is panromantic and asexual. He only has the heart eyes for his lovely Min-kyu, though.
Concord is about 19 in human years. He's pretty tall, but he's not at all fearsome.
His main song and partial voice claim is Here to Mars by Coheed and Cambria, and it's the source of the lyrics under the headers! It has been His Song since his inception, and that won't change any time soon.
It's in the stars,
And you're my everything from here to Mars.
And every word I say I truly mean,
Dear darling,
I hope I'm being clear 'cause there's no one like you on Earth
That can be my universe.
Other songs on his playlist are Let Me Try by NateWantsToBattle, Pluto by Sleeping at Last, and Dynamite by Taio Cruz, lol. He absolutely LOVES 2000s and early 2010s pop music, like the aforementioned Dynamite, Call Me Maybe, and Love You Like a Love Song. He has no shame and will belt these.
Just like human Concord, this man loves chicken. Lions don't exactly have access to McNuggets, though, so he has to settle for the poor scraps he rarely finds.
Despite his unfortunate love for McDonald's, he LOVES to cook and bake, and tries his goofy best to act out the same motions, even as a lion. His actions absolutely befuddle the lone lionesses who sometimes keep him company along his journey.
Concord is a little dumb. Like, if you shook him, he'd sound like a maraca, and sometimes you can look into his eyes and just hear the elevator music.
Event Lore
Concord encountered Wenet first during his wanders, and though he was compelled to help her, he was extremely put off by her blatant interest in him. And since his brother loves rabbits, he loathed having to dispatch them. He spared the ones he could.
During the Championships, Concord needed a break and decided to try his hand at the competition, but after an anxiety attack from being swiped at, he realized it wasn't for him and retired to the crowds to cheer on his favorites.
Concord was only vaguely aware of the earthquakes being caused by the giant demon snake, and even if he was there for the main event, he certainly wasn't the man to save the world. Exhausted from his wanders, he settled down in a grove for a prolonged rest, only moving on once a terrible drought destroyed his temporary home. He paired with a lioness named Shamash to spread kindness during the crisis.
After the rains poured down and Shamash took her leave, Concord thought himself done with drama. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, it seemed. He hastened to outrun the locusts, and when the Harbinger rose from the depths in front of him, he squealed in horror and ran even faster. He took shelter where he could, not participating meaningfully in any way.
Concord ran far, far away, and was hoping for some peace and quiet, and to maybe find his family soon. His compass's needle was still pointing straight east, but he had no indication of how much farther east. Unfortunately, he wasn't going to find out soon. Rabid animals and horrible beasts populated the land he stumbled into, and in the cave in which he sought shelter after being tailed by a white lion with furious rabies, there was a monster calling himself a manticore! Concord stayed with Nirah, but the blatant flirting made him terribly uncomfortable. Can lions just stop flirting with him? He's married!
More to Come, I'm Sure!
Please, I'm sorry.
Just like he has the heart eyes for Minny, I have the heart eyes for him, and I'm sure more will be added and tacked on as we go! I'm still working on fully developing his lion history.
