Story: He was the first son of Maridadi and Kanali, becoming the heir of pride. He was trained by his father and his mother to be king, but he did not much like the lessons and preferred to play like any other cub. If lessons were a problem for him, being committed to someone was even more so.
He was a rather troublesome and disobedient boy, but as a teenager he changed a little and became more responsible about his responsibilities. Besides that, in his adolescence, his mother died from unknown causes, probably an illness and that forced Apendaye to be more mature in terms of his obligations and to make his father proud.
He spent little time with Mwenye, and that affected him a bit, because they were best friends as cubs, but he made up for that by spending all his time with Wakati, and he fell in love with her.
At the end; He ended up choosing Wakati as his wife and future queen. Not because he liked her, but because he knew Mwenye did not feel anything for him.
Years after he became king, he had three cubs with Wakati. It was a very happy thing for both parents, but for a problem: lack of food. The herds were gone to the pridelands for no reason and they wanted their prey back, but the pridelands were more than happy with the new preys and did not want to return them. After a war it was decided that his son and daughter Kovu and Kiara would get married, but no one in the pride was happy about it.

Relation to The Lion King:

• Kitindamlo pride has an aliance with the PrideLands.
• Knows Kovu and Kiara.
