Everyone seems to be doing this challange by so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon too!

Here's the blank if you guys want to do it too.

Uru

Uru is the third born of Mohatu and his mate Ghalyela, and their firstborn daughter. She ends up as Mohatu's heir after her older brother, Joto (a.k.a. King Joe) ends up abdicating the throne as a teen and running away from home. This is something she's a still a bit bitter about, as she never wanted all the responsibilties that come with ruling a kingdom, but her other brother, Kiapo, was already starting to lead his own Lion Guard, and her sister, Kuishi, showed even less interest in ruling than her, so she knew that she was it. Didn't mean she had to like it, though.

She runs into Ahadi as young adult during a botched hunt and is instantly smitten with the mysterious, stoic lion. With Mohatu's blessing, Uru marries Ahadi, and the two rule the Pride Lands together, with Ahadi dealing with the political side of things while Uru deals with the rest. She dies not long after she returns from finding water, dying in childbirth.

Uru is the mother of Mufasa, Takatso/Scar, and Pumzika, and the adoptive mother of Awali.

Ahadi

Ahadi is the first born son of the Sunrise Pride's king, King Alamgir, and his mate Layla. His childhood is nothing short of a nightmare, as his father is extremely abusive towards himself, his brother Bakari, and his mother. It's this abuse that causes his mother to commit suicide, and later the reason Ahadi abdicates the throne and runs away, leaving his poor brother alone to deal with their monsterous father. Leaving Bakari behind is one of his greatest regrets in life, the other being the failure to be a good father to Takatso.

He runs into Uru as young adult after a botched hunt, saving her from stampeding wildebeests. For saving Uru's life, Mohatu allows him to stay in the Pride Lands, which turns out to be a good choice as soon he and Uru fall in love. He marries Uru and rules beside her as her consort, dealing with the unsavory political bits that come with ruling a kingdom that Uru is just not cut out for. Together, the Pride Lands flourish under their reign. When uru dies in childbirth after her return, Ahadi rules as regent as Mufasa is not quite yet ready to take the throne yet. Once he feels Mufasa is ready to rule on his own, he gladly steps down, focusing all his attention on raising his young daughter, Pumzika.

He is killed by the hyenas on Scar's order shortly after Scar becomes King.

Ahadi is the father of Mufasa, Takatso/Scar, and Pumzika, and the adoptive father of Awali.

Miitu (Mheetu)

Miitu is the son of Scar and Sarafina, born shortly after the death of Mufasa and Simba along with his sister Nadra. He is raised by Scar to be his perfect heir, which turns him into a rude and arrogant lion as a youth. As the Prince, not much could be done to curb his bad attitude. Most in the pride simply bent to his will, as it was easier than having to deal with both the spoilt Prince and his tyrant of a father. The only one to truly stand up to him besides his half-sister Nala is Sarabi's daughter, Shani. The two butt heads often, and though Miitu wouldn't openly admit it, he secretly respects and even admires Shani for standing up to him, and comes to look forward to their verbal (and sometimes physical) battles.

One night as a teenager Miitu is ambushed by a jealous Zira, who is intent on killing him and replacing him as heir with her son, Nukato. Miitu is badly injured by the vicious lioness, and when it seems his life is about to end he is saved at the last second by none other than Shani. Shani, though only a teenager herself, is large and bulky like her late father, and is able to match Zira blow for blow. Caught off guard, Zira decides to flee, leaving the two injured teens alone by the borders. Miitu is eternally grateful that Shani saved him, and when she explains her intent to leave the Pride Lands he decides to leave with her to start a new life elsewhere, away from his father's terrible influence.

Together, the two young lovers start their own pride some ways away from the Pride Lands, and eventually get back in contact with their family members who thought them dead once Simba returns.

Miitu is the father of Johari, Mwamba, and Zuri.

Kopano (Kopa)

Kopano (better known as Kopa) is the second born son of Simba and Nala, and the younger brother of Nywele. He is destined to be the next leader of the Lion Guard once he comes of age, but this never comes to pass.

One day Kopa manages to convince his brother and his best friend and cousin, Afua, to go with him to explore the Out Lands. It's here where they run into a very angry and very murderous Zira. Afua and Nywele are killed, while Kopa is severely injured and left for dead. He is found by his hyena friend, Asante, who takes him back with her to her clan and convinces her mother, Shenzi, to let Kopa stay (not telling her that he's Simba's son).

Kopa awakens at first with amnesia, but over time he slowly regains most of his memories. However they end up twisted, leading Kopa to believe that his parents never cared about him as much as they did Nywele. This is only reinforced when Asante tells him that Simba and Nala never searched for him, and later again when news of his younger siblings' births reach him. Filled with anger towards his parents and his pride, he declares that he will get revenge on them for forgetting about him.

The Pride Lands throne rightfully belongs to him, and he'll do whatever it takes to take it back. And Asante, as his best friend and his mate, is more than willing to help him, especially since now she too will get a chance to get revenge for the way the Pride Lands have wronged her clan over the years.

Kopano is the father of Adimu, Tajiri, and Viazi, and the adoptive father of Asante's cubs.

Afua

Afua is the son of Nadra. He is born shortly after his cousins, Prince Nywele and Prince Kopano, and quickly becomes their best friend. The three are as thick as thieves, and they do almost everything together. Thus when Kopa wants to explore the Out Lands to prove his bravery, Afua is more than willing to come along with him and Nywele.

This short adventure of theirs ends in tragity, as they quickly run into a furious Zira. Afua is quick to sacrifice himself to try and save the two princes, but unfortunately his sacrifice is only enough to save Kopa. He dies a quick and painful death at Zira's jaws.

Kovu and Kiara's Eldest (Zamani and Pamoja)

Zamani and Pamoja are Kiara and Kovu's eldest cubs, born a few years after the reunification of the Pridelanders and Outlanders. Zamani is born first, however he is born sickly and weak, and fearing that he'll end up like his sickly uncle Naba and be unable to properly rule, Kiara and Kovu decide to make Pamoja their heir instead, and tell the pride that he is the first born instead of Zamani. This is something the two don't find out until they're nearly adults, and by that time it's too late to really do anything about it.

Shortly after their birth, their grandfather, Simba, is killed by their Aunt Nyingi, and their father framed for his murder. Kovu is chased out of the Pride Lands by it's angry subjects, and Kiara, Nala, and Tiifu all go with him into exile, taking the two young princes along with to ensure their safety. They end up taking sanctuary at the Tree of Life with their Uncle Kion and Aunt Rani. Their earliest memories are of living at the Tree of Life and playing with their cousins, with Zamani getting much needed treatment for his ailments during this time.

Eventually Kovu is exonerated from the murder of Simba thanks to Vitani's thorough detective work, and the exiled royal family return home to take their rightful places. The two princes grow up in the Pride Lands happy and healthy, with Pamoja training to be King and Zamani training to be the next Lion Guard leader.

Pamoja eventually marries Vitani's daughter Fathiye and has a son with her named Mwenye, while Zamani marries a lioness named Tawa, and has two cubs with her named Furaha and Shida.

(Side Note: I'm reworking a lot of Zamani and Pamoja's back story, so there isn't much on them atm, sorry.)
