One light as day and the other dark as night,
They will set the lamp of war alight,
But one will rise to reverse their plight"

Personality: Despite his fierce exterior, Nuka's more of a quiet and shy guy. He's not much for talking, but when he does, it's something to listen to. He prefers talking to fighting, and is more of a lover than a fighter. His patience doesn't ever seem to run out, but when it does, then it's enough to have elephants shaking in their skins. Still, he likes forming bonds and believes that the bonds of family last for a lifetime.

Likes: his mother, his aunt and uncle, his cousins, relaxing, sunbathing, talking

Dislikes: war, bloodshed, Giza's temper

History:

With Simba stepping down and Kovu taking his place, Kovu decided to make a few changes to the original rules and regulations. Every season or so now, the females of the pride could leave to mate with rogues and have cubs if they wanted to. Vitani, Kovu's sister, soon found herself wishing to have a cub of her own, especially once she saw Kiara's new son, Hasani grow into a playful young cub.

Ever since Zira's death, Vitani was known to leave the Pridelands at times, to clear her head. So, when she was found missing once, it wasn't a big surprise. But when she returned to Pride Rock this time, she wasn't alone. She had a cub with her, whom she named Nuka, after her late brother. After his birth, she stopped leaving the Pridelands.

Nuka grew up alongside his cousin Hasani, and the two were inseparable. Then, another miracle happened: Rafiki's prophecy and the birth of Yuna and Giza. Nuka felt that Giza was too violent and Yuna was too soft, extremes that weren't good at all. But he forced himself to focus on other things, like comforting Hasani when he got his heart broken for the first time.

Then, Nuka revealed that he wanted to leave and start his own pride. He was almost an adult, and could take care of himself very well. So, saying goodbye to his mother and wishing Hasani good luck with everything, he set out to start his own pride.

But, he didn't say the real reason he decided to leave. He had a feeling deep down that something was going to happen, something involving Giza and Yuna, and he would be caught in the middle of it, whether he wanted to or not.

Relation to TLK: Vitani's son
