@Pobou- G1
I don't think Lioden keeps a record of it (unless you happened to have saved a message or something from that time), but if you even at least vaguely remember the year, that's fine! :)

Oblaan Wah Jud Do Sunvaar II, she's from a long line of kings, inherited only one marking from the first matriarch.

Jud Do Shul, from the ongoing project.

Vulon Thur, the youngest result of the ongoing project.

Åsine, the most recent addition to the pride, and a step forward in the project.
All are connected to past and present king/s. (P.S. Big fan of TES games, as the names suggest. )

Omg I found my first post in the clan thread. Apparently I've been doing this since 2017. Whut. So, uh… six years. Six. Years.

Azarasti XXII - My current king. That's 22. This is the 22nd one.

Mto - She got Noctis Heavy Rosette. I was thrilled. :D

Kabizi - Not my favorite appearance-wise, but her heritage can be traced all the way back to my original Queen, Usiku!

Anywho's… the whole thing with my pride is keeping my original Queen's genealogy going. My goals for my king's appearance have always been somewhat loose, but have focused on Black Solid Special genetics (except for the time he was Doubloon when I first started and that one time he was Sunspot lol). I did do some combo bases at one point (and may do again). I was really excited to get White Inverted Shaded Rosette, so if I ever managed to breed a lion with a Shaded Rosette mark, I'll probably try to breed one with the Shaded and Inverted Shaded marks to king. :D

Since both my accounts are in HM and I consider them the same when it comes to breeding, etc. I will just enter lions from both.
My join date on my side account (which is the first one I joined with) is 2018-03-13 - or at least that's the date of my first post in the HM forum.

As for the lions I want to enter:

B.J. - since this is a heritage replaced king you can check his predecessor who he was heritage replaced from for the HM rules part here
Mainly entering this one bacause he is the result of the last big breeding project I did.

Angelina - I've always had a soft spot for Albinos and this one came with a full 10 markings, and not just that, but 10 markings that actually work together to make a cohesive look. Very happy with this cub.

Little Tiger - Looks like a Tiger. What more can I say?

I think I have been playing HM on and off for about 2 years now. I try not to use very many Applicators on any of my lions. Because I play on and off many of my lions are at very low heritage.

My three top favorites:
This is Bloodspatter She is the cub of a savage male from the August event. I have never made any changes to her base/ markings ect.

This is The Queen She is a Groupie from the may event. I have changed her base. She has a dorsal cub resulting from punk breeding challenge.

She's a Maneater This is a cub of a savage male from the August event. Again she's had no changes made to her base/ markings ect.

Hello! I've been playing HM since I started this account (November 2022). I don't really have lore, per se, but I do have a rather detailed naming organization! I've had three kings (Green Tea Latte, Yaupon, and now Enfleurage) that I use for names, with the most recent ancestor determining the name of the cubs. I started out with green as my breeding priority but I'm incorporating more floral themes with my most recent King/Queen 🪷

Bog Matcha Latte: No particularly valuable markings, but I like her cohesive base, marking, and mutation combo from my Latte group.

Silky Phacelia: Nice powerhouse of green and silky markings. My pick for the Greenhouse group (named after the plants they resemble).

Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf: I worked very hard on this base and marking (Bushveld QF) combo and I think it turned out nicely. She's related to all three of my kings and is from the Perfumery (named after famous perfumes and their ingredients).

I do heritage rep, so if that’s an issue I understand! Sharing is fun regardless :)

Rust is an achro cub that was born today so she’s my first mutie :>

A tough choice to choose just 3! ^_^
Joined the clan 2016-11!

Nyota, G2 - the most recent favorite, she was a lucky strike - not only she had interstellar base pass from her father, BUT she also had a rosette pass too! I love her looks as her eyes and skin also match to the stellar theme.

Cheneo, a bit longer heritage, not sure if she qualifies - her father was my G2 Ferus I bred using a Mukombero on a rolled king/NCL breeding, and her mother's line was my own temporal line that I bred from two G1 lions some octobers ago! Not only she successfully cloned from her mother, but she also got Ferus from the father!

Lulu, G2 - an old favorite, she's one of the oldest HM lions I keep, I love how her markings make her look pearlescent

In no particular order, my top 5:

For appearances - B.J
Because I am a sucker for Goridhe, and also because the colors are lovely. The bloodborne+goridhe combo is criminal!

For sheer difficulty - Cheneo
Base, mutation, ROSETTE?? Leave some for us, geez

For style - She’s a Maneater
Simple but pretty markings and decor

For history and lore - Azarasti XXII
22 is crazy, but I also particularly like the den lore around him

For most likely to steal - Lulu
All-around very nice, I see why she’s a favorite!
