I AM THE FASHION THAT YOU'RE ALL INTO </font></font>
<indent><indent><p align=justify><font face=verdana><font size=1><font color=2f4d60>How to sum up this lion? Bastion has <font color=426880>arrogance</font> about him, being so far up his own backside it is a wonder he has ever seen the sun. He believes his small, slender body shape to be <font color=426880>superior</font> to the bulkyness of most lions and thus has made it his mission to pass down his genes to as many cubs as possible. This leads him to be classed, most definitely, as a <font color=426880>womanizer</font>, possibly the most notorious to ever bless Starlight. He doesn't believe in monogamy, long-term relationships and especially marriage are an alien concept for him, as loving and leaving them is far more his style. A ladies man through and through he will flirt with pretty much anything, and a certain quirk of his personality is that he holds the abilty to change the way he acts to fit any lioness. He can make them think he is their perfect man, he plays with their minds and <font color=426880>manipulates</font> them like pawns in an intricate chess game. He can be speaking quite normally to a woman one second and be hitting on her the next, until she falls under his bad-boy charm and utter disregard for his own safety. Unlike most promiscuous lions he takes great care of the mother during her pregnancy and is keenly involved with the cubs to ensure their survival with his precious genes.
Although he values himself more than others, he takes the responsibilities laid on him by a pride seriously. A <font color=426880>warrior</font> through and through, as his name suggests he is <font color=426880>obsessed with defence</font>. He believes a pride should concentrate first and foremost on <font color=426880>defending</font> its territory against invasion, and his aim is to create an inpenetrable bastion of <font color=426880>invicibility</font>. Defending himself also comes top of his list of priorities, and whilst he may be arrogant his true colours only come out after much conversation. To newcomers, he is <font color=426880>quiet</font> (unless he's got his bedroom eyes on them) and so can appear <font color=426880>cold</font> and <font color=426880>incompassionate</font>. He always maintains an air of <font color=426880>mystery</font> around him; a puzzle wrapped in an enigma, and he shares as little of his history as possible. Once he gets talking, however, he shows a remarkable <font color=426880>sarcasm</font> and dry wit, not to mention a certain allure to sexual innuendoes, with an ability to inject humour into even the grimmest of situations. He may talk a lot sometimes, but to fit in with his air of mystery, he never <i>says</I> anything. He has a certain flair for <font color=426880>rulebreaking</font> and does not think before he acts; reckless, some would call him, others would say he's just plain stupid. But he believes rules are there to be broken and he relishes the naughtiness of breaking them; even when he does get caught doing dastardly deeds he shouldn't be doing, he is a <font color=426880>compulsive liar</font> and can talk his way out of trouble with ease. He is not a coward, certainly not, but he knows his limits and prefers wars of words first before resorting to wars of bodies.</div></font></font>

<indent><indent><p align=justify><font face=Verdana><font size=1><font color=2f4d60>Bastion does not fit your typical description of a massive hulking male bulging with muscle. He is, in fact, relatively <font color=426880>small</font> and <font color=426880>slender</font>. Standing at around 3'9 and weighing in at just under 410 pounds, Bastion will certainly not proclaim to be the largest nor the strongest lion. Do not let his undersized appearance fool you, however; he has plenty of <font color=426880>muscle</font> tone beneath his smooth coat and is far from feeble, he merely is not as intimidating in appearance as most. His body is ridden with <font color=426880>scars</font>, the most noticeable of which is a notch out of the top of his left ear.
His colour is the <font color=426880>darkest shade</font> you will see in a lion; a deep, <font color=426880>chocolate brown</font> with marginally lighter paws and muzzle. His mane is <font color=426880>black</font> with some brown mingled in, and it is not as thick and full as most lions. It stretches from his shoulders around and under his stomach, where it then narrows to a thin strip of fur which gradually fades away as it disappears beneath his hindlegs. Because it is smaller than average, it gives him the appearance of a cub that is still growing into himself, completing his <font color=426880>slender</font> and <font color=426880>agile</font> body. His face is <font color=426880>handsome</font> and <font color=426880>angular</font>, yet arguably his most remarkable trait is his eyes, which are <font color=426880>lightning blue</font>.</div></font></font>

<font face="verdana"><font size=1><font color=2f4d60>WE ARE THE DIFFERENT, SO WE'LL MAKE A START
TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND SOUND THE ALARM </font></font>
<indent><indent><p align=justify><font face=verdana><font size=1><font color=2f4d60>Bastion was born to your average pride, sired by the King and out of one of the lower-ranked females. Of all his siblings, he was the smallest and was, before he started toning up through battle, almost scrawny in appearance. Combined with the fact he was the only dark cub in his sandy litter, he was the subject of much disdain within the pride. This lead him to become somewhat of a scapegoat and the other cubs took great pleasure in kicking the snot out of him whenever they were bored. Even his own parents saw fit to land the ultimate insult upon him by removing the family name from his, effectively disowning him. All through his younger months he tolerated it, as he was always the last to feed and thus became weak so there was not a lot he could do about it, but when he reached adolescence, something within him snapped. His brothers, Arvei and Sabro, were both the proud owners of thick, full manes; they both bulged with muscle and were fawed over by lionesses, proclaimed as future Kings of the lands. His sisters Elven and Miziku were beautiful, strong huntresses, and the subject of fights as to who would sire their first litter - and then there was Bastion. His lack of food had lead to stunted growth, and his mane was pitifully thin to the point of none-existance. His half-hearted flirting lead only to disdain from the subjects, and there was practically a queue as to who would get to kick him out of the pride to fend for his weak self.
That was when he became so sick and tired of the endless teasing that he began to train. He would hunt, fight and challenge, building his scrawny body up until it could withstand the merciless bullying; he would go on long expeditions out of the pride to test his stamina and endurance. No amount of training would ever remove his less-than-impressive size or slenderness, but soon he was strong enough to stand up for himself and occasionally get revenge on his cubhood taunters. Arvei and Sabro became annoyed with their little brother's sudden development, and they seized their chance one dawn when food had been scarce and, as usual, Bastion had been the one left hungry. They threw themselves at him, and even his newfound strength had no chance against their superior power. It was then that he lost the tip of his left ear; Arvei's feral teeth tore a chunk from the top and it was hardly likely to grow back. He fought back, of course, but was soon overwhelmed. All he could do was run whilst he still had his life and, being the faster of the two, Sabro gave chase. Weak and exhausted, Bastion lashed out at his brother - and by sheer luck, his claws hooked across Sabro's eye, leaving it to ooze like an egg from his socket. Whilst the other lion writhed in near-blindness, Bastion seized his chance and clamped his jaws around his brother's throat like a wounded zebra then watched him die. He has never seized to regret this, as taking the life of another lion was not something he enjoyed, and it is nothing but his shameful little secret. He never speaks of his family or his past due to this, and to this day nobody but he knows of a cubhood spent being shunned and bullied that eventually turned into the death of a brother.
He became nomadic, wandering the lands in search of a pride who would accept him for what he was and not look down on him for his somewhat unconventional appearance. Now he had built up his body, females paid more attention to him, and he learned the wonderful art of flirting. He travelled alone for too long, until finally stumbling over the borders of Starlight Pridelands. The rest, as they say, is history.
