History: Imara was a lioness born during Scar's reign. Her mother escaped the pridelands to find a better home but she left Imara behind because Imara's father was Scar. Scar didn't have much to do with the cub, he recognised it as his own but gave it to Zira to look after. Imara never got enough food because Zira would feed her own cubs before her and favoured them more than Imara. She was born around the same time as Kovu and they got along well, without any fighting.

When Scar was killed, Zira and the outlanders were banished and they had to live on the borders. Imara was handed over to another lioness in the pride because Zira didn't have enough time for her. Imara grew into a young cub who got aong with all of Zira's cubs, even Nuka. She was brought up to hate Simba and the pridelanders just the same as Kovu and was trained just like the other lionesses in the pride. Zira made plans for when Kovu was king and decided that Imara would be the lioness for Kovu to have cubs with and be his queen. Imara was taked with the idea but never really thought about it until she became a teen.

As a young teen she had a massive crush on Kovu and dreamt about being his queen one day. To please Zira, she truly hated the pridelanders and was enthusiastic about helping to destroy them. She didn't like Zira's plan for Kovu to pretend to fall in love with Kiara but she didn't have a say in the matter, she feared Kovu would run off with this princess and forget about everything. She was right.

She was very upset when Nuka died. He was the second closest thing she ever had to a brother and she mourned him for many nights. When the fight between the pridelanders and outlanders started she relished the chance to get her claws bloody and leaped in. She was truly in her element and lashed out at the pridelanders with a hatred that could even rival Zira's.

She also shared Zira's pain when Kovu appeared with Kiara and put an end the the fighting. She felt a stab through her heart when she saw Kovu looking at Kiara with a gaze that she knew she could never have. He had chosen Kiara and there was nothing she could do about it.

She fled the scene and watched from a distance with pained eyes as Zira fell from the cliff into the churning water below. Imara ran down to the bank and searched for Zira's body. Although she was never treated as such, Imara loved Zira like a mother. She found Zira alive but fading fast. Zira whispered to Imara with her last breath.

"Get...revenge....for me....and S...S...Scar"

Imara nodded and assured Zira that she would do anything to destroy the souls that had taken first her father, her friend and now her only motherly figure from her. As Zira died, Imara looked up and saw the spirits of Zira and Scar watching over her, Imara knew what to do. She stood up and fled back to the outlands, on her way there she bumped into Sango, her half-brother.

He explained who he was and she was very surprised to find she had a real brother. Sango had originally come from the Kiliaman pride where his mother had been queen. But from an attack she had unfortunatly died and he had learnt of his true father's identity. He had then gone to seek him out, he had found him and they had been reunitied only to be seperated again. Sango had watched as his father had been thrown from the cliff by Simba and then devoured by the hyenas. He had then left priderock and gone to train himself up to attack Simba and the pridelanders.

Sango and Imara joined forces and agreed to bring a blow down on priderock that nobody would ever forget...
