Tazama

Hiyo kali!
―Tazama's catchphrase

Tazama is a lioness. She is Shabaha's sister.

Appearance[]

Tazama has milky-brown fur broken up by a cream muzzle, chest, underbelly, and paws. The fur on top of her head and ears is tufted; her ears are rimmed with darker brown on the top and cream on the bottom. Her muzzle and cheeks are freckled with a darker brown, and her eyes are butterfly-rimmed with darker brown. Her tail-tip is dark brown, as is her nosebridge. Her inner ears are a dark, dull pink while her nose is a brighter pink, and having heterochromia, one of her eyes is bright teal while the other is brown.

Personality[]

Like Ono, Tazama is smart and knowledgeable. She tends to use her head, think first before acting, and analyze a situation so it can be used to her advantage. Unlike some, who tend to overestimate their skills and abilities, she is aware of her limits and relies on her cunning to succeed. During battle, Tazama tends to stick to the sidelines, while her allies engage the enemy. This is done for support, as she acts as their eyes and ears. Despite her more passive role, she is willing to join her friends in battle if the situation calls for it. She is also very loyal to her allies, showing them camaraderie and respect. In turn, Tazama's allies consider her valuable and are very appreciative of her aid and skills. Tazama seems to be more hostile and relaxed, as she shows less enthusiasm for battle than her teammates and is less vocal in opposition.

History[]

Backstory[]

Tazama was born alongside her sister, Shabaha, in the Pride Lands, later being exiled for being one of Scar's supporters, along with the other Outsiders, by Simba. She and her fellow lions spent time preparing to take down Simba, though when the final battle dawned, Kovu and Kiara convinced both sides that they were one. Tazama, her sister, and the other lionesses joined Simba's Pride, though the two would end up moving to Leopon Plains and joining the Tumaini Pride later on.
