Training
No Nemeion is born a master in the art of combat or hunting. Every young lion must learn how to become powerful and strong like their predecessors. Training is an important rite of passage for all Nemeion. Not only does it increase their success in the Colosseum and other activities in the group, but it also unlocks the ability for a Nemeion to breed.
───── Rules & Guidelines ─────
── Training must be completed for a Nemeion to breed
── Complete two prompts listed below.
── Images must be a full body colored image with a moderately complex background.
── Alternatively, you can choose to write at least 900 words of literature.
── Up to three (3) cats are allowed per training entry
── Prompts are very loose and open to interpretation. As long as it makes sense, each Nemeion may complete different training prompts in the same piece as long as the prompt is specified somewhere in the description.
── Handlers are not required. You may substitute any Caesar lion in the place of an implied human for a prompt.
