Achilia- Always begging for forgiveness

Achilia- 'Forgive'

History: Achilia is born into a close knit pride of many lionesses, but only a few males. The pride starts with three brothers and a few older lionesses, but once the elder lionesses die out the brothers are only left with their daughters. No new blood has been introduced for the fear of a disease that's been ravishing lion kind. The brothers breed their daughters anyway and somewhere in all this inbreeding Achilia is born. Her mother can see a few of her defects already, a damaged eye that will never see, an under bite, too long of a tail, and her claws are always out. When she survives into cubhood Achilia is deemed the ugliest cub, by the adults. The other cubs soon pick up on this and begin to torment her over her defects, thou many share the same ones. In an attempt to be 'normal' Achilia rips at her own mouth and neck to rid herself of her bottom canines and extra neck scruff, but is overcome by the searing pain and instead chooses to live on the outskirts of the pride, scavenging of their meals whenever she can. When she becomes a young adult she abandons her pride and chooses to travel

Personality: Achilia is always willing to do whatever it takes to please others. She's bad at socializing, but can't live alone for long and so she often stalks other prides, pretending to socialize in her mind.
