Aspasia is an older, seasoned lioness. She is a light cream, almost white color with lighter cream undersides and points. She has prominent spotting and small stripes on her entire body, much like a cub. Aspasia is a rather large lioness, standing at a height of 3.9 feet. She has an incredibly muscular build, meant more for strength than for agility.
Although not nearly as strong or large as a male, she's capable of holding her ground against other lionesses or predators. The scars that litter her body prove this. Her eyes are an amber color, and the tuft of fur on her tail is a dark black.
She is a fully filled out lioness, though she has the ability to gain more weight. Aspasia has a noticeably chipped tooth, her bottom left fang. She lost it during a fight to protect a former litter of cubs, who were unfortunate enough to not make it through the attack. She's missing a chunk out of her tail, and some of her paw pad on her right foot.
Aspasia is a very experience lioness, and not only in fighting. She is capable of many things, and doesn't hesitate to prove it. She would be a very pretty lioness, had it not been for her beat up and scarred appearance. Her pelt is not smooth and sleek, she's sort of fluffy. This does not help her at all in the heat, and can result in her overheating easily. This doesn't stop her, she can still be seen trying her best.
While not built for speed, Aspasia is an excellent hunter. She is terrific at actually taking down the prey and making the final kill. Due to her size, it makes it difficult for her to be stealthy, so she works best in a team with the other lionesses. Aspasia has large paws, and bulky legs, paired with deathly sharp claws. Her teeth are slightly dull, and are yellowed from the course of the years.
Personality
As her name suggests, Aspasia is a very kind and welcoming lioness. Her appearance may be deceiving, but she's really the complete opposite. She is incredibly motherly and has a love for cubs, whether or not they are hers. She also acts this way towards younger lionesses, and often gives them advice or cares for their health.
Aspasia is social and loves to talk for hours on end. Given the chance, she'll talk anyone's ears off. It can be viewed as annoying or very irritable but she never seems to notice. Her intentions for things are always pure, though it may not always seem that way. It's a difficult task to get her riled up and angry and once it happens, she's merciless and cold. Aggressive and violent. Aspasia does her very best to prevent this side of her from coming out, but it's not always easy.
Aspasia is incredibly observant, she always notices if someone's in a bad mood or if something is off. This doesn't mean she'll try to cheer them up, though. She is quite intuitive, and is rarely wrong when she makes an assumption or feels like something isn't right.
She is incredibly clever and has quick thinking skills, which means that the others usually turn to her when a problem arises. She is the mediator for arguments and disputes, she knows how to settle them and make sure both parties get something equal to agree on. She is a leader and will often take on leadership roles, but it wasn't always this way.
Aspasia is an incredibly romantic and caring lioness. Few have seen this side of her, but she is willing to share it to those she's close with. She loves physical touch and words of affirmation, she is always touching someone or praising them as a result. A favorite activity of hers is grooming those close to her, just sitting in comfortable silence.
Aspasia believes that everyone is worthy of love. She gives second chances no matter what, but never third chances. That's whenever whoever is asking for the chance doesn't deserve it anymore, and should be cut off and ignored. Aspasia is selfless and cautious, yet also curious. She is usually on high alert, though she may lower her guard whenever she feels relaxed.
