Kion

Kion is the son of Simba and Nala and the younger brother of Kiara. He is the second-born cub of the royal family, the Prince of the Pride Lands, the former leader of the Lion Guard, the King of the Tree of Life, and the mate of Rani. He is also Kovu's brother-in-law, as well as Baliyo's. Kion is also the grandson of Mufasa, Sarabi and Nala's Father, the grandnephew of Scar, and the distant relative of Askari. He is the main protagonist of both The Lion Guard: Return of the Roar and follow-up series The Lion Guard. When he had the Mark of the Guard, it was imprinted in orange-red on his left shoulder. Kion’s paw pads are a dull pinkish-brown, and his claws are a silvery-white. However, in Friends to the End, as Kion is now a teenager, his claws are shown to be bigger, sharper, and with a black 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 granduncle Scar, and brother-in-law, Kovu. 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. After acknowledging Vitani and her group as the new Lion Guard, his mark gets replaced with the Mark of the Night Pride, which is on his right shoulder and is the same color as his former Mark of the Guard.
