Backstory...
Under the quiet sway of a coconut tree, little Carly, small and sweet, was raised by the community of Coco Pride. Both of her parents were lost in the Great War, leaving her orphaned at a tender age. Her small stature made her vulnerable, and the fear of losing anyone else haunted her every step. While the other cubs played freely, Carly was the one who watched, the one who worried, the one who hesitated. If something could go wrong, she had already imagined it.
Growing up...
As Carly navigated her teenage years, her deep-seated fear of loss warred with her desire to keep those closest to her safe. She earned the nickname "Cautious Carly," a title that both frustrated and defined her. She dreamed of joining the Police Academy, of becoming an official protector of Coco Pride, but was swiftly rejected due to her small size. The rejection stung, but Carly refused to let it be the end of her story. If no one else would give her the role, she would take it for herself. Armed with a first-aid kit, handmade warning signs, and an ironclad commitment to preparedness, she appointed herself as Coco Prideās Safety Officer. If danger was coming, Carly would be ready for it!
Currently...
Now, Cautious Carly patrols the island with unwavering diligence, ensuring that every path is marked, every potential hazard accounted for, and every lioness equipped with basic safety knowledge (whether they ask for it or not). Slippery rock near the waterfalls? Sign posted. Storm rolling in? Shelters reinforced. Someone climbing a tree? Not without a harness on her watch. Though her constant warnings and checklists earn her more eye rolls than thanks, her heart is in the right place. She may not be the biggest or the strongest, but her dedication to keeping her pride safe is unshakable. Even in the face of her own fears, Carly stands firm, proving that true strength isnāt measured in sizeāitās measured in the willingness to protect those you love, no matter what.
