-Opening-

On the barren lands beneath the sun
Guarded by vultures' prying eyes
And across the grass the gazelle run
The air filled with hyenas' cries
And in the shadows the cheetahs prowl
And lions bask beneath the light
The african leopard breaths a scowl
Herds of Warthogs, Zebras, Gazelle
On the run, ever wary
Even though it may seem scary
The circle of life keeps going on
On the barren lands of Africa

-Rules-
africa:: Follow the general roleplay rules.
africa:: Create as many animals to your heart's desire. Just keep them alive.
africa:: No point in joining if you don't stay loyal to us.
africa:: This is a realistic roleplay. Keep as realistic as possible. All animals, no matter how great, have limits. They can't hear something half way across the land.
africa:: No Bob modding or powerplay. Meaning you can't play as other people's characters, or have them to be invincible.
africa:: Remember to make drama, to keep everyone going. Also, have fun ;]

-Dangers-
These are what could happen in Africa. Whilst role playing, use these ideas to help you create some drama x]

[[ Thanks for joining, all accepted ;] And sure, I'll add the African Wild Dog on! Yes, this RP is generally on survival in Africa. Bear in mind we have droughts, wild fires and floods (maybe I'll add that on) here too. ]]

Mystic

Mystic slowly walked alone beside the grazing herd, looking for a spot to eat. She found a patch of grass beside a dead tree. She lowered her snout and took a bite of the dried grass. It wasn't much of a meal but atleast it filled her until she found more to eat.

Mystic looked up from her grazing patch and studied the area, keeping a look-out for predators. She saw the two young zebras, Kriss and Kross, hurrying toward her.
"Hi guys," she swallowed some grass then greeted the two then whinnied a hello. "What are you guys up to?"

(I'll make one more.....haha)

Tafari stalked along the land looking for the perfect spot to start his own territory. "It needs to have a reliable source of food and water and on top of that i need at least two reliable females to live with and have as potential mates." he murmured to himself. He walked until he came to a bush with the scent of a lioness on it. "It smells like she's alone. Guess i'll go investigate."he said as he set off toward the source.

Cheery chewed on some dry grass, one of her herd members had been hunted down by a lion. Cheery shoved the feelings away and became her usual self, eager to talk and interact with others. She stepped towards a few zebras who were talking and smiled at them. She bent down for a mouthful of grass, her ears listening for rustling.
