Bullet-point trivia/facts about Lala:
Lala was born into a clan of (tiger) warriors who strongly valued and adhered to the idea of "The weak are meat; the strong eat.”, with her being basically their “princess” due to her parents being, essentially, the “rulers” of the clan.
She was actually really sickly when she was a child; so sick that even she couldn’t even walk on her own without quickly falling to the ground in just 3 seconds.
Or even coughing up blood every so often. Even opening her eyes proved too much too hard due to the pain of her entire body and being too weak to move.
Thus she always had to rely on her older brother, [Shir-Kani], who was always by her side and would protect her from anything.
He vowed to always stay by her side no matter what even if the others had already long given up on her due to her condition. It even got to the point that even their mother, as was typical of all the women in their clan, who was extremely loving and protective, sadly resigned to her daughter’s fate of an early demise (whilst blaming herself for birthing Lala a weak body).
Her condition has actually existed since long ago within their clan’s history, though it was extremely rare and as a result, no one really knew what the cure for her illness was or how to combat it.
Also, due to her condition, she’s the only one who has albinism in her entire clan after the last one who existed a few couple centuries ago, while the rest have the normal (bengal) tiger fur/hair color. (EDIT: Ok, so, mod suffered a brain fart and slightly forgot she drew what if!Lala still with albinism skdljakdjasd)
EDIT: Albinism in her clan is a trait not exactly tied together with the condition Lala is currently suffering from, so it doesn’t always mean that that Tigris is inflicted with the illness and it could just be from the recessive genetics.
When Lala turned 5, and Shir turned 9, however, Lala was able to stand up on her own and beat the ever-loving shit out of a group of kids (they were all around 11 to 12 yrs old) who had been picking on her older brother for quite some time now due to Lala’s condition.
Having had enough, Lala lashed out and ended up sending the kids near death with the sheer brutality of her attack, with even their resident doctor stating that the kids will bear literal scars all over their bodies for the rest of their lives and that it was a miracle even that they managed to survive.
Conveniently, it was also due to this event and a recent discovery regarding Lala’s condition that, while her physical growth WILL be drastically slowed down, in exchange her body and muscles amplifies itself greatly to the point that she could just as easily have killed the kids with only a couple of (good) blows to their faces or chest area (specifically, where their lungs are at). [note: currently, she’s strong enough to easily carry Malleus, with little to no effort, and is practically a one-woman army).
Double conveniently, her weak physique stopped after she turned eight and she proceeded to get stronger from then on. (Though not long after, she left the clan all on her own without telling anyone...)
(Aaaaaand I’m going to stop there before this goes out of hand and becomes WAAAY too long lol. If any of you want the full backstory, then I might just finish it sooner or later; that is, IF any of you actually want it....)
(What she looks like VS What she COULD have looked like)
