Meet Kahara. She's my fursona and she has been since the early summer of 2008. Having undergone almost no revamps or changes as I never felt the need to change her. I see others constantly changing their personas saying that their old one didn't express their 'new' self. I always saw that as an insult to their persona. Kahara is me, I am her. As I change, she changes, but rarely in appearance. Perhaps some day she may have an extra scar or two, and the old ones healed up some more, but she won't ever change colors dramatically or suddenly be a male or something.
Speaking of Kah being male. While she will always appear, most commonly as a lioness, you may also see her as a kitten, dog, lizard or anything else. But the colors, personality and markings are all the same no matter what her form is. However as I said before, most commonly and by 'default', she is a lioness. The one thing you will never see Kah as is a human. If you did, you'd be looking at me, because I am her human form.
Officially, Kah has no hair/mane. Only has six scars on her left side (sometimes accidentally drawn on the right or mistaken as markings and not scars) and has bright green eyes (sometimes seen as dark). She is a lioness inspired by my favorite childhood movie, The Lion King, and has been seen in both Lion King style and realistic style. There is no official 'way' to draw her, as long as she's drawn as a lioness with the correct colors and markings. In the picture above, she is extra fluffy. There is no defined amount of fluff you'll find on Kah.
Not long ago, friends of mine saw Kah get probably the biggest addition she'll ever get. It's not seen on her as much as I wish it would be, but it still exists. In the picture above you see her with Blitz, the snowy white owl who could be considered as semi-sona of mine. A friend to Kahara after she saved him. He is actually inspired off of a real snowy white owl plush I own, bought from a zoo at NJ. He'll be seen riding on Kah's back using a lime-green saddle sometimes; if Kah is in a tolerating mood. However Blitz is just as content to not using it.
Inspired by my dislike of mirrors and having pictures taken of me, I gave Kah a helmet. It makes her appear constantly angry with narrowed, tinted eye areas. On her right front paw she wears a glove that is attached with a string-belt mechanism. That goes up to the helmet so it doesn't fall off. On the glove are built in metallic claws that will never come off or retract.
This set isn't seen on the lioness as much as I'd like to have it seen, so it isn't as official. More like an.. optional add on. Which brings me to the next paragraph you'll find on Kahara: Zombie Kah.
Zombie Kahara
To the left you see Kahara in zombie form. (Sanctum of Eventide - http://sanctumofeventide.us/ Zombie Kah preset made by Nala_91)
While it isn't official, it's slowly becoming one of my most commonly used forms of Kahara. A zombie with a revealed rib cage, bandaged and bleeding limbs and a torn up tail. The 'music loving' zombie lioness who sleeps as much as she rants. She'll often wear a skull as a mask, carry a bow and holds arrows on her back. (Inspired by my new found love for Skyrim) A headset or headphones has also been seen on her. Unlike non-zombie Kah, zombie Kahara will never be roleplayed and is entirely out of character. Her actions and emotions reflect my own.
Relations
Kahara has friends both through roleplay or because they're my friend. I guess it can get confusing, so don't think on it too much. Through roleplay and OOC fun she has come to mother many cubs. With both males and females. (Woot for the impossible!)
She has a (unfinished) family tree, thanks to Buri. Click here!
In case that gets deleted for whatever reason, however, I'll list them here as well! o_x These include OOC, RP, fan and spur of the moment cubs. I've gotten tired of people going inactive with cubs though.. rage. >:l Oh, if you play a cub and want Kah's last name, it's Dakasa. Which I'll explain later.
