Taka/Scar is Simba's bitter uncle, he never had the name Scar, it's just a nickname, his real name is Taka Scar, which means Mufasa, named so because of his famous mark on his face because of the snake in the animation and in the live action and Mufasa that the mark never appears in the reverse. Scar remained bitter and with the legal love of his brother, but was allowed to live in the Pride Lands. He did not attend Simba's presentation, much to Mufasa's chagrin. As the months passed, Scar quickly became jealous of his nephew christened Simba as the next of kin began to plot to kill him in order to bring competition to the throne itself. He began recruiting hyenas, mainly Shenzi, Banzai and Ed, to build an army. He used bribes of food to get them to his side. The first attempt the hyenas made was to kill Simba after tricking the cub into entering their territory with his best friend, Nala. When Mufasa foiled the plan, Scar watched the entire scene with great unhappiness. Later, Scar admonishes the hyenas for not killing Simba, even when it became clear that Simba only survived due to Mufasa's interference. However, he eventually gets the idea to kill Mufasa in addition to Simba when, after feeding them the leg of a Zebra to kill Mufasa when Banzai mockingly asks if Scar must kill Mufasa to obtain the throne. He promises that under his rule, they will never need to starve again. With their help, he engineers a wildebeest stampede intended to kill both Simba and Mufasa, tricking Simba into waiting in a gorge under the notion that Mufasa has a "wonderful surprise" for him. Scar then sends Mufasa to save Simba. Scar hates Simba, hates Mufasa and Sarabi but likes Nala
