Made this randomly, because well. I'm a fur- a big fan of lions. Ngl lion king brought back that big cat phase of mine. Anyways onto the au.
I've changed some things from the original story, and I'm gonna run through them quickly!
-Angels/magic doesn't exist in this universe. There are no gods, only lions.
-Human characters stay human.
-Armies have been changed to prides. Quick name list:
Heavenly pride. (Palutena's army, wow who would've guessed)
Nature pride. (WONDER WHAT ARMY THIS ONE COULD POSSIBLY BE.)
Underworld pride (HMMMMMMMMMM)
-Pit and Dark Pit are siblings. (Just sperated from each other for a reason I'll think of eventually)
Anyways onto lion character designs because I'm special.
(Forgive me for the shit quality, I haven't been able to draw any of them digitally yet.)
I decided not to add his wings, but I didn't want to remove his disability. So he now has a back paw he can't use. (I don't know the name so don't stab me-) also, funny teenager mane haha.
He has feathers in his tail because haha original had wings. Which hopefully is fine! I'm worried about accidentally using something sacred to natives in a silly lion drawing! (I know feathers in ears and hair is a no-go, but I'm unsure about tails! If anyone has some knowledge on this let me know!)
(Another shit quality image! Wow! And Pittoo in the fucking background HHHHHGHAHAHAH)
Originally I was gonna make her a bit fluffy, but I decided against it. Kinda sad this is my only drawing of Palutena..
(Medusaaaaa, hate the pose so much but I like her design.)
Snakes, and hyena mane thing. Also pointy. Is it a bad time to mention I didn't use references for half of these? USE REFERENCES PLEASE THEY'LL MAKE YOUR LIFE SO MUCH EASIER.
(I hate this character with a burning passion)
I had fun messing with Pandora's facial expression, Her little tail fur looks like fire because of her little flame form.
I wanted to make Dark Pit slightly different from Pit, so I changed his scarf to a bandana and made him spiky. Also, he has longer fangs than Pit, though both of their fangs stick out.
Also, due to there being no magic in this au. Dark Pit isn't a clone, so his name doesn't make sense. I kinda wanna change his name for this au. But I don't have any good ideas. Please give me ideas!
And these are the only few I've drawn, for now, I'll draw the rest digitally later. Haha- Maybe even go through each change in another chapter of this book. (Maybe even the story 👀)
