My pride

Little things
The Pride Law requires certain actions and behaviors based on gender. Although Hunter Chief Moonstrike is transgender, it's unclear how transgender lions fit into the Pride Law.

Stray lions are lions that are not part of a pride and do not adhere to the Pride Law. Stray lions often give themselves this name; pride lions treat them with disdain and often chase them out of the pride's territory. Because of this, most stray lions remain within the Plain of Strays.

Events
Continuity
Maneless lions seize power in a pride by challenging the current alpha male to combat, and pride law requires the alpha male to accept the challenge, as any rival male poses a potential threat to the pride. If the alpha male is successfully displaced or slain in a fair fight, the challenger becomes the new alpha male, but only after the pride's hunters have determined whether he defeated the previous alpha male in a fair fight, and based on this decision, they can accept or reject him. All lionesses in the pride express their approval of the new alpha male with a roar. If he does not receive approval, he is either expelled or killed, risking leaving the pride defenseless. According to pride law, lionesses are the property of their alpha male, so during the succession process, the future alpha male often kills or expels the cubs of the previous alpha male to prevent his blood from mixing with that of the new alpha male. It is unknown what happens if a maned lion dies a natural death rather than being killed by another lion.

Huntress's Assessment
When the Lioness reaches adulthood, the Chief of the Hunters evaluates her skills and, based on them, bestows upon her the name of Huntress. She is assessed by the Chief of the Hunters and the goddesses. If she demonstrates exceptional abilities, she is said to have been blessed by at least one of the goddesses.

Death of the Huntress
When a Huntress dies, all her Clanmates let out a unified roar so that Asra will hear them and carry the departed spirit to the stars, so that she will be remembered. Huntresses fear becoming Dowryless and being left alone, for they fear no one will roar for them when they are gone.

Roles and titles
The pride is led by the Maun, a lion whose name is suffixed with the word "mane." He must exercise absolute authority over his pride. Although he is not involved in day-to-day decisions, he is responsible for protecting the pride and his cubs. The Maun can choose any lioness in his pride to mate with, and he can father cubs with multiple lionesses.

The hunt leader is the second most important lioness in the pride. She is often the strongest and most experienced lioness in the pride and is responsible for coordinating hunts and overseeing the huntress evaluations, during which she awards the title of huntress to lionesses. Although the hunt leader is sometimes the official mate of the alpha lion, who ranks higher than her, she is the one who decides whether a lion can become the new leader of the pride. The lioness remains the hunt leader for as long as she is able to fulfill her duties and may retire due to age or health reasons.

Hunters are all adult lionesses in a pride. At the age of one to two years, a lioness undergoes an evaluation by the Hunters and is named for the skills she possesses. Traditionally, all lionesses belong to their pride by default, and relationships between lionesses are punishable by death, but this rule is not always observed.

Between the Huntresses and their cubs are all the young members of the pride, aged between 1 and 2 years. These are either Lionesses who have not yet received their Huntress name, or Lions who are about to be cast out and become Maneless.

A lion cub is any male lion under one year old. Male lion cubs are named at birth, while female cubs are unnamed until they are assessed by the Huntress. Until then, they are referred to solely by their sex.

Maneless are male lions aged one to two years who do not belong to any pride but still adhere to the pride's laws because they become Maneless. Maneless often form bachelor groups in search of a pride. It is said that the harsh living conditions in the Wildlands make them desperate and cruel.

Proudmain is an influential lion linked to the takeover of the pride and changes in the lives of the main characters. Powerstrike, Sharptang, and Farleap are hunters and powerful lionesses of the pride, forming the "fighting core" and influencing the internal politics of the pack. Nothing is the main character, a lioness with a paw injury. Because of her lameness, she is treated as an outcast within the pride, but she is brave and capable of standing up for herself.
