Personality

Sigbrand, being a Kappi, one of the Manticore Pride's fiercest and strongest warriors, is naturally quite jaded. He has no issue with blood, death, or injury. He has lost a few chips of stone to an Allosaurus or two in his time. He is much more personable and charismatic than Roland, however, able to be very diplomatic when necessary. He enjoys seeing the other lions and patrolling the perimeter of the entirety of the Manticore's land to ensure everyone's safety. He is the best strategist out there, able to come up with battle plans and traps for the enemy. He is great at finding and coming up with exploits for the enemy's weaknesses. In times of peace, or when he has free time, he is known to enjoy swimming. He knows of a secret cave that leads to an algae-illuminated pool where he loves to relax, watching the light bounce off the walls of the cave in abstract patterns.

History

When Sigbrand emerged from the Manticore, he stood face-to-face with another lion, a cup just barely older than he, who was scarred and looked relieved to see him. He knew only his name, Sigbrand, and that of the Manticore, but soon he learned the name of the other cub; Roland. The two would become brothers, both with the goal to lead the lions of the Valley to greatness. But for now, and for a while, there would only be them, the two brothers. Roland taught him everything he knew, how to survive and solidify himself into stone, and they worked out together how they would run the Valley. That is until a female lion entered the picture. Sigbrand quickly grew feelings for her, but she always showed love for Roland, and in the end he came to accept it, and knew he would one day find his mate, but for now he needed to do his duties alone.
