“Hevi kabasi (totally intense)!” - Kion’s catchphrase.


Kion is a adult male lion. He is the former leader of the lion guard, son of Nala and Simba, mate of Rani, father of Ari and Aagney, the uncle of Ani, Leah, and Chimba, and and the brother of Kiara, while also being the second cousin twice removed of Kopa. He is the current king of the The Night Pride, and currently resides in the tree of life with his children and mate. He is a secondary character in The Lion King: The Next Generation.

Appearance[]

Infant[]

As a infant, Kion was very small and had a small red mohawk. He had small speckles on his feet and had yellow fur.

Cub[]

As a cub, his appearance was similar, yet he was bigger, had less speckles, and a bigger Mohawk. His fur noticeably got a bit darker.

Teen[]

Kion’s teen appearance was the same as before, but his red Mohawk formed into a half-grown red mane, also acquiring a scar from a cobra bite. He has a blue mark that is similar to that of a boomerang.

Adult[]

Kion’s present look features a full-brown red mane with the blue mark and scar. His scar has become duller. The speckles on his paws are now missing on his back paws.

Personality[]

Kion is a protective, playful, flexible yet stubborn adult lion with a good temper. He can get a bit protective and bad-tempered at times, partly due to the cobra bite and partly due to his nature. He is very caring towards his family and is trust-worthy. However, towards enemies, he can get a bit aggressive and even get into battle. He’ll do anything for his friends and family. When there’s trouble, Kion will do anything to stop it.

Kion is described by Rani as “fun-loving, stubborn at times, protective, and wise”. His cubs, especially Ari, look up to him. He takes his duty as king seriously, and tries to be the best king he can. When something bad happens, Kion will always blame it on himself, as he is often involved in these conflicts, but usually doesn’t cause them.

Biography[]

Infant years[]

Kion was born to Queen Nala and King Simba. Kiara was only a toddler. Despite Simba slightly caring about Kiara more, Kion was kept safe at home by his mother, Nala. Nala often taught Kion stories of the pridelands. When Kion got older, he eventually went out of Pride Rock and explored. When Kion went by the watering hole, a infant Beshte playfully dragged him into the water. Kion, however, did not understand they were playing and attacked. Basi, concerned, ran over to the small animals, and told them that fighting wasn’t a answer. Therefore, Kion and Beshte became friends. Kion also met Fuli when Beshte was showing his friends. Bunga met Kion during a festival the week before this as Pumbaa and Timon brought Bunga. They formed a miniature “guard” that rescued a egg. The chick inside the egg was Ono.

Cubhood[]

Kion became good friends with Fuli, Ono, Beshte, and Bunga. When Bunga accidentally stumbled down into the Outlands to get their baobab fruit, he was cornered by hyenas. Kion roared very loudly, unaware of it being The Roar Of The Elders. It scared away the hyenas. Rafiki said “he was the next leader of the guard” and gave Kion the position of fiercest in the guard. He assigned his friends and such. This time takes place sometime after the Lion King 2 (part 1) but before The Lion King 2 (part 2).

Late in his preteen years, Zira was about to strike Pride Rock, and Scar’s spirit had just the right moment to take revenge on the past. A war was declared, Kion and the guard defending the pridelands. It lasted for nearly 2 years. Nne was injured in this battle. The war was called The Battle Of the Pridelands, taking right before the events of The Lion King 2 (part 2).

Teenager Years[]

Near the end of the war, Kion went to stop Scar. Scar’s spirit ordered a cobra to strike Kion, hitting in the eye. Scar wanted Kion to be like him, Kion refused. Bunga tried to defeat Scar’s spirit, but nearly fell into the lava. Ono luckily saved Bunga, but only to be temporarily blinded. Kion decided to leave for the Tree Of Life to help him heal Ono and his scar. There he met Rani, who he fell in love with. Meanwhile, a second war after The Battle Of The Pridelands. When Kion returned, Kiara insisted him to come to the place he loves, ending up 2 years later married to Rani.

Adulthood[]

A few months after getting married, Rani became pregnant with two cubs. Kion would often comfort her and protect her, like a bodyguard. Time flew, soon Rani had the two cubs. Kion named them Ari and Aagney. Kion is currently raising Ari and Aagney, prince and princess of the tree of life.
