Name:Shere Khan (Pronounced Skere Khan)
Story: Numerous stories in The Jungle Book, and The Second Jungle Book, Including 'How Fear Came'.
Location: The Farm
Occupation: Fearsome 'Lord'
Resources: Animal?
Popularity: Folklore
Known Powers or Skills: Hunting, Stealth, Fierce combat, Terrifying speeches
Equipment: Death in crushing jaws and swiping claws
History: Lungri, The Lame One, as his mother often called him, was born with a crippled leg, and a severe issue with the world around him. His given name was truely Shere Khan, and as he grew into a large, powerful monster (Lame leg or no), he dedicated himself to be the self-provlaimed 'Lord of the Jungle'. The only one who listened to his rantings, however, was a Jackal named Tabaqui.
When Shere Khan began hunting humans for meat, and to scare them away from 'his' land, a man cub was left alive, and then raised by Khan's enemies, the damnable Father Wolf and Raksha take the boy in and he grows to become Mowgli.
Shere Khan spends over a decade attempting to destroy the boy, and nearly manages to end his life on several accounts. In the end, however , the Adversary emerged and Shere Khan fled, tearing apart anyone who stood in his way.
He's been living at the Farm since, but is growing very tired of the pitiful, furless humans telling him how he should live. Someday, something will have to be done.
