Name: Mahari ('Forgiver' in swahili)
Age: Depends on use
Gender: Male
Parents: Unknown
Siblings: Sarabi, Naanda, Dwala and Diku (sisters)
Crush: Taka (former), Sarafina (currently)
Crushes on him: Sarafina
Mate: Sarafina
Cubs: Nala and Mheetu
Personality/bio: Mahari was the last born cub. Sarabi was born first, Naanda was born five minutes after Sarabi and Diku and Dwala were born fifteen minutes after Naanda. Mahari was born one hour after the twins.
He was born very weak, but he managed to survive. However, his parents and sisters never gave him attention.
Mahari never had many friends - he only had two friends. Taka and Sarafina.

Sarafina always loved Mahari since the first second. He saw her as a sister he never had the chance to have. She saw him as the love of her life.
Mahari, Taka and Sarafina were the best of friends. They were always together, no matter what. Taka and Mahari had a very unique and special bond. When he was a teen, almost a young adult, his feelings for his best friend started to get confused, and he realized he was falling for him.
But Taka was already in love with someone else.

His friend was in love with his sister, Sarabi, and Mahari did everything to turn them into a couple. It worked, but at cost of his happiness. He was heartbroken, but there was only one lion - actually, a lioness - who managed to gather all the pieces of his broken heart. The lioness he least expected to make it was Sarafina.
Mahari was grateful to her for all the times she had heard him when he was feeling angry or upset, for all the moments, everything. And when she told him everything she felt, he knew he always felt the same. That's what turned them into a couple.
On the other hand, Taka - now Scar - had turned into a selfish and depressed lion. The 'golden trio' was no longer the golden trio and Mahari and Taka's friendship was almost at the end, after he discovered that he was dating her.
Mahari knew there was nothing more to be done, and all the good memories began to fade from his mind when Sarafina and his new mate went to the jungle to start a whole new life.

Relation to TLK: Sarabi is his sister, is Sarafina's mate and was Taka's best friend
