NAME; Viento (pronounced Vee-n-toe) NICKNAMES; Vi, Ento GENDER; Masculine SPECIES; Cheetah CURRENT AGE; His exact age is unknown, but he is around 2 years old EYE COLOUR; An entrancing shade of mahogany SAMPLE POST; The sleek figure battled with the vicious waves which tore at his side, but he seemed to be unfairly disadvantaged. Another surge of water buffeted him, sending him deep under the surface. Paws flailed widly, a failing attempt to regain his breath. Finally, he broke through to the surface, intaking the crisp night air, only to be pushed back under by a tangle of foam-crested waves. His continuous war seemed hopeless, the water was beating him. For the last time, the feline's head was submerged in water and he was swept away with the rapids.
Further downstream in calmer waters, something stirred. Lying in a small pool of water was the leopard; he had survived after all! Or so it would seem ... His chest rose and fell heavily and he spluttered several times, getting rid of the water which he had swallowed whilst underwater. Laboriously, he dragged himself onto the bank, then flopped back down to rest. This time, the water had not claimed him, but next time he might not be so lucky.
His rich, sandy coat faded in almost perfectly with the backdrop of gritty sand and beaches. He trotted energetically, considering that he had almost drowned just a few minutes ago. The steep trail of which he was climbing led high up the clifface tapered dangerously, yet he never once lost his footing. The feline cut across a wide gap in the earth, stretching out to full length in order to leap over the crack. He landed safely on the other side, and began to lope forward stealthily, his paw steps unheard on the soft sand.

HISTORY; As a cub, he was almost the biggest and most adventurous in the litter. His parents favoured him for this, but the other cubs simply got jealous. Whenever his mum and dad weren't around, they would gang up on him and scratch him. He still has some of the scars today - one on his right cheek and one on his left hind leg.
The emotional scars were worse than anything. Though he always recieved his parents love, all he really wanted was his siblings respect; but no matter how hard he tried, he never earned it.
And so came the present day. PART OF PACK; Savanium
