Sumu (The Lion King: Revisited)

"You know what do, Sumu." "And do it, I will."

- Scar and Sumu on the plot against Simba Sumu is a male scorpion. He is a member of the Army of Scar.

Appearance
Sumu is a large black scorpion with four gleaming red eyes and a soft gray triangular marking on his forehead. He has other gray markings all over his body, including three gray spots on a pair of very large pincers.

Personality
Sumu is fierce and confident, willing to use his venom for even the most extreme purposes. He also shows great loyalty to Scar.

History
Sumu is recruited by Scar to sting Simba as part of the latter's plan to overtake the Pride Lands. The scorpion does as he is instructed, stinging Simba and nearly causing the king's death. When the Lion Guard attempt to escape the volcano with Makini's gourd filled with volcanic ash to cure Simba, Sumu attempts to take down the Lion Guard along with the rest of the Army of Scar. He is defeated when Kion uses the Roar of the Elders to clear a path out of Janja's den. He apparently defected from the Army of Scar, not wanting to be roared at again.
