They're just lions. . . that are 20%-25% bigger in all ways. . . and have a lot for variation in colour. Yeah. About 10% of them are born with antlers or horns. Oh, and they usually live in large, monarchy-based tribes in big tunnel systems that usually hold some kind of secret. And are very territorial.
And believe in an unidentified set of Creators that are above everything, alongside whatever deities the individual tribe comes up with (although this is uncommon).
Monarchy
Royalty
King/Queen - The previous heir. King and Queen can also be King and King or Queen and Queen.
King/Queen - Married into royalty.
Shaman - Priest type of lion. (Can only be female)
Priestess - Heir to the Shaman. (Can only be female)
Prince/Princess - Cubs of royalty. Next in line for the crown.
Council - Advisors to the royal couple.
Lords n' Ladies - Retired royalty. (10 years+)
Hunting Party
Guards - Specialized forces for protecting camp.
Hunters - Specialized forces for hunting bats n' other tunnel creatures.
Scouts - Specialized forces for guiding hunting parties through the tunnels.
Medics - . . . . they heal lions.
Commoners
Elders - 10 years+
Cubs - Less than one year old.
Yearlings - Those in training.
Peasants/Forces - Unskilled workers; do menial tasks around camp. (Skin large kills, etc.)
Aboveworlder - A lion or other creature that is not native to the tunnels or has been exiled, and is not welcome down.
Where does Guardian fit in? They're just a weird immortal thing that many Guardian Lions think is one of their Creators.
