GENERAL INFO
Personality: Inyene is a very kind lioness, who puts everyone else above herself. With this mindset, she has put herself in many of a struggles, because she would do anything for those she loves, including putting herself into the paws of Zira. As a cub, she always loved to go on adventures and that has no changed much. It is why she went out with a group of Lioness and their travels. Inyere loved her Pride, but being in one place at her age, with a cruel new leader, she just wanted to leave and explore. Now, she wants nothing more than to be home, but fear has forced her to stay where she is. She was badly brought down by Zira when her group neared the Pridelands, forced into submission with the threat of losing her sister.
Had she not been forced into submission, she stubborn side would show through and maybe one day it will return. She is thoughtful, always thinking through her ideas and plans. She isn't fond of bullies but has learned to take on a calmer approach. Her fear of what might happen to her and her family is front in her mind. The lies fed to her and her sister by Zira have not left and with the loss of Nuka, whom she did grow fond of, she feels alone in raising her cubs.

History
Inyere is the daughter of Taher and Jasna and raised in the lands of the Stone Pride, far from the Pridelands, though they had heard about it for many years. Taher was a warrior, protecting the lands from harm, while Jasna was the first daughter of the ruling lion and his mate. Jasna was not going to become Queen, so when she feel in love with Taher, her parents had little problem with her becoming his mate.
Inyere was born to a liter of three, but her two siblings passed away before dawn the next morning. This made her the sole cub of Taher and Jasna. The two raised and loved on her constantly. A few seasons later, her parents had another liter, this time with Lesedi and Chedo being the only two born and living. Inyere was excited to be an older sister and enjoyed playing with her siblings all the time. As they grew older, the trio was known to get into trouble, resulting in them getting lectures from not only their parents, but grandparents.
When the three siblings reached their youth, their pride was visited by a strange lion and his bachelors. At first, they seemed kind and friendly, but the next night, the pride attack their family and killed the leading lion. Their grandmother was forced to become the mate to the lead bachelor and her father, Tehar was run off alone with other lions. Chedo was also run off by the bachelor lions... Lesedi and Inyere were far to young to be mated off, but her mother wasn't and Inyere watch in horror as one of the bachelor lions drug her away into a den to make her his forced mate.
After several weeks of this, Inyere and Lesedi heard of a small group of lioness who traveled and after saying good-bye to their mother, stole away into the night. It was not hard to find the group of lioness. The group was welcoming to them and explained they were headed to the Pridelands. Inyere and Lesedi were happy to be able to travel and explore.
The closer they got to the Pridelands, the more they connected with the small Pride and when they saw Pride Rock in the distant, they were all thrilled. But, that thrill was cut short when they were surrounded by lionesses and approached by their leader, Zira. The older lioness commanded they join or be killed. Zira needed numbers, though Inyere did not understand why. When the relationship between Inyere and Lesedi were discovered, Zira's planned formed. She introduced the Lioness to her son, Nuka and privately spoke to Inyere.
"You will marry my son, Nuka... or, I will kill your sister before your eyes," Zira had said to her, forcing her to comply, as Lesedi was still young and growing. She had only recently helped take down a large zebra with the lioness clan. Nuka and her married quickly and were given their own den in the Outlands to start their life together. Inyere did not like him at first, but over the course of a few weeks, she grew fond of him. He was actually quite nice, once you got him away from the others. She found out she with cubs shortly before he left with the others... Unknown to her, it was to ambush Simba, the King of the Pridelands.
When Zira returned without Nuka, Inyere was worried... "The Pridelanders killed my son! You as his mate will be killed as well, so you are to stay away from those lands... They hated Nuka, because he is the son of Taka, the true King of the Pride Lands... Simba killed him and he will kill you too!" This put a lot of fear into Inyere and when Zira took the lioness to the Pridelands to attack, she was left with her sister and two guards. When word arrived that Zira had been killed, the guard lioness left and Inyere and Lesedi were left unguarded and afraid...
Inyere stayed in the same den that Nuka and her had lived in before his death. It was small, but big enough for her, Lesedi and whatever cubs she had. After the next season, she gave birth to two cubs, a boy and girl. She named them Teshub and Inara, but stayed in the Outlands to care for them. For fear those who killed her brother and Taka would kill her cubs for their bloodline.
