History:
 Moriko was a few weeks oldwhen she was found by Rafiki, her parents had been traveling through the dieing Pridelands during Scars rein, and were killed by a band of Heyna's, if not for her parents and Rafiki she would have died that night. Her parents had put her in a hiding spot where they hoped no one would find her.
Rafiki on one of his walks a few nights later heard a mewing and went to investigate, upon doing so he found the cub and took her in raising her as his own. Moriko grew up to be a strong and wise lioness though she had a tendency to goof off and cause trouble. When the pridelands were won back over Rafiki brought the 6 month old lioness to Pride Rock to live with Simba and his pride, though Moriko was more than a bit skeptical, soon she found her home there though. Even though at night shes usually seen at the bottom of Pride Rock sleeping in a tree close by.
