Bio
Upendi: Upendi was born to parents in the outlands. While she was very young, her father was killed by hyenas, and her mother ended up bringing her to the pridelands. However, just before entering, her mother left her by a rock to go hunting. A while passed, and her mother still wasnt back yet. She decided to go look for her mother. She smelled fresh blood and followed it to a horrible sight. Her mother was dead, obviously killed by hyenas because they surrounded her body. Heartbroken and scared, she fled to the pridelands. They took her in after hearing her story, and soon she was adopted by her parents. She was three years old at this time. She was their first adopted child.

Mamba: Mamba's parents were travellers, they always moved from place to place. They came to the pridelands with their son, and they were fascinated by the pridelands. They decided to stay for a while. unfortunately... While they were out hunting with the pride, they were both killed in a stampede. Vitani had become good friends with his mother, and was very saddened by the news. She and Fuli both decided to take him in, and he was very happy. He was their third adopted child.

Kaka: Kaka has no memory of his life before being with Vitani and Fuli. He only barely has whisps of an image of a lioness washing him. According to Fuli, he was wandering in the rain mewling loudly. Hearing his cries, Fuli rushed to find the source. When she found him, he was very very tiny... not nearly old enough to live without his mother. Fuli brought him back to Vitani, and she agreed to take care of him while Fuli looked for his mom. But a week passed and she still couldnt find any sign of his parents. After another week, Fuli gave up searching. She and Vitani both had fallen in love with him, and they took him in as their own. He was their fifth child they adopted.

Duma: Duma and her parents lived in the pridelands. Duma actually had a sister and a brother at that time. She was a pretty curious cub, and would often wander away from the 'den'. One day she went farther away than she ever had before. She became lost, but eventually found her way back. She was very surprised to find her home flooded with water, and no sign of her parents. She happened upon the Lion Guard while they were checking the damages. Kion asked Fuli if she knew the cub, since she was a cheetah herself. Fuli did not, but she offered to stay with the cub while they looked for her parents. Kion came back with sad news. They had found a cheetah family, but they had drowned in the flood. Seeing there was nothing else found, they assumed that it was her parents. Fuli brought her home to Vitani, and they took care of her while the others decided what to do with her. Fortunately, it didnt take long for them to fall in love with the cub.. and happily took her in. She was the fourth child they adopted.

Dada: Dada was born to a litter of four in her family. Almost immideately after birth, they little cubs were left to fend for themselves. Unwanted by their family. Fuli watched it happen, and was full if rage. She demanded the mother take care of the cubs, but was shocked with a snarky remark about how they werent the cheetah's problem anymore. Fuli took the little cubs back to Pride rock, where she explained what happened to the lions. They called some cheetahs in the pridelands, seeing if anyone would take them. Only two were willing, one taking two while the other only taking one. No one else was willing to take the final little cub. Vitani and Fuli hadnt been thinking of getting another cub, deciding five was enough. But they couldnt reject the little cub, especially when she looked up at them with her baby doll eyes. She was their sixth child they adopted, and the final one.

Haraka: Haraka and his family were living happily together in the pride lands. It was just him and his mom. She was very generous and loving. Very sweet and never yelling at her son, who was barely a cub at the time. But she had her enemies, being one known to chase down hyenas if needed. While she was away, she was attacked by hyenas, and ended up being killed. She was well respected in the pridelands, known to be very wise. Everyone was saddened by her death. And what was more saddening was the fact that her son was left alone. Upendi took it upon herself to comfort him, as he was only a couple months younger. Vitani and Fuli then fully took him in as their own. He was their second child that was adopted
