History: Rashidi was born in the pride lands during Uru and Ahadi's reign. He was loved deeply by his mother, but his father was unhappy with his birth and often beat him and abused him verbally. Rashidi would often be very clingy to his mother as his father scared him. Rahidi's mother alerted king Ahadi of her mate beating her son and Ahadi exiled him from the pride, though Rahidi would never be the same again.

One day when Rashidi and his mother were out by the watering hole to relax, Rashidi's mother was attacked and killed by outlander lions and Rashidi was taken by them, raised in the outlands, which he absolutely hated. But when he saw Ahadi out with Uru, he quickly ran to them and begged them to protect him. He explained how his father had gone and his mother was dead, so when the outlanders came looking for Rashidi, Uru and Ahadi quickly took care of them, leaving them running off.

Rashidi was taken in by Ahadi and Uru and raised to his teen years by them, becoming best friends with Mufasa and Taka. He learned how to hunt and which areas of the savannah to avoid if he didn't want to be hurt. But one day he decided he needed to leave, to find his own place to belong. He said thanks for everything they'd done for him before setting off into the wilderness to find a mate and a pride of his own.

He walked for days until one day he ended up in the jungle. Trying to find food he'd eat was difficult for him there, but he managed to survive on little every day. He was hunting one day, when there was a lioness going for the same prey. She leapt up onto him and they both tumbled around, fighting for a while. When they were both tired out, they stopped fighting and finally began talking. Neither of them were badly injured and so were both able to calm down a little after their fight. Rashidi found out that her name was Sanura and she was looking for a pride to join.

Rashidi explained that he was trying to form his own pride, and was quick to ask if she wanted to join them, to which she agreed. During their time traveling together, Rashidi found himself falling for Sanura more and more. He couldn't take it any more and confessed to her, ending up delighted when he found that she felt the same. He asked her to be his mate and she gladly agreed.

The two of them set off traveling again, both looking for lions to join their pride. On the way, Sanura found out she was pregnant, and the two of them were going to be parents. Sanura gave birth to twin boys, Tojo and Hasani. Rashidi made it his job to protect his new family at any cost, but that ended up costing him his life in the end, and he was killed by hyenas who attacked them. Sanura managed to fend off the hyenas and fled with her two sons to the pride lands, where she knew they'd be safe.
