Kion is the protagonist of Legends of the Lion Guard: A New Journey.

Appearance

Kion has a light golden pelt and paler golden paws, underbelly, and muzzle, with scruffier fur on his upper cheeks and the base of his chest. He has a bright red head tuft, and a bushy tail tip that is the same color as his mane. His eyes are orange-brown, with dark, thick eyebrows located above them. He possesses a sepia brown nose and dark brown whiskers, with brown rims along the side of his light red-brown inner ears and black rims along the top. At the base of each of his legs, Kion has numerous spots in a darker shade than his main fur color.

As a teenager, Kion has grown taller. His mane has grown slightly larger and most of the spots on his legs have faded. He also has a scar on his left eye, like that of his great-uncle and Brother in Law. However, Scar and Kovu both have one slightly curved line running down their eye, while Kion’s scar has two small lines above his eye, and one below.

Personality

Kion is strong-willed and able to trust his instincts, which is in part due to the gentle guidance of his grandfather, Mufasa.

Undoubtedly, he is one who follows his heart, even in matters where those he loves oppose him, and is willing to follow the call of duty over pleasing family and friends.

His creativity knows no bounds, which is likely due to his straightforward nature and ability to see every side of a situation. 

After he was inflicted with a scar, and poisoned by a cobra, Kion’s personality changes drastically. He becomes more anxious, less confident in decision-making, and prone to violently lashing out, which also causes him to frequently doubt himself as a leader, requiring the assurance and comfort of his friends. 

Once he is healed, Kion regains his level-headed nature, and is shown to have matured considerably. 

Through the encouragement and support of his friends, Kion finally realizes that neither his scar nor the Roar makes him who he is and regains his confidence as a leader.
