Hodari (The Lion King: Revisited)

Hodari is a male gecko. He is an honorary member of Makuu's float.

Appearance
Hodari is tiny and lithe, with turquoise skin and an orange underbelly. He has blue markings on his back and head, and large, black eyes with pale green scleroses.

Personality
Despite his obviously small stature, Hodari dreams to become a crocodile, or at least an honorary crocodile. He is very knowledgeable about their ways and capable of learning from others even when not directly involved in the training process. However, Hodari is also very gullible and easily misled. He is blinded by his own desperation to be accepted, which is shown when Hodari broke his friendship with Beshte to be loyal to Kiburi's float, despite being told of their past misdeeds. But Hodari is capable of overcoming this when his suspicions are raised and can show humility. He also shows signs of bravery, as seen when he was willing to betray and confront Kiburi to save Makuu, even though his own life would have been in danger.

History
Hodari participates Simba's Kumbuka celebration at Pride Rock.

During the wet season, Hodari participates in the battle of Kenya against Scar's Justice Order of Outlanders.

A year later, Hodari attends Kion's coronation, who becomes Rani's mate and the King of the Tree of Life.
