Bio/Personality: Eberardo is Laavanya's mate (Vitani's daughter) and the little cousin to Chumvi. He was born in the Out Lands, a time where majority of the Outsiders have joined Simba's Pride after Zira's death (the insane, evil Queen who had ruled before). Now, a new Queen runs the Out Lands by the name 'Zahara' Kovu's ex-mate. Eberardo's parents were one of the 6-7 lions who stayed in the Out Lands and became members of Zahara's pride remaining 100% loyal. They did not wish to join the Pride Lands and felt that if they did, betraying Zira would result in bad news. Rumors have said that if the others joined Simba's pride, Zira's soul would haunt them in the end. But occasionally him and his parents would spend time there in short by visiting Chumvi and his little family.

In the beginning, Eberardo lived a decent fair life. The Out Lands now is not a bad place to live in. More food has became available, the rains left fresh water, and the grasses have almost sprouted back. Zahara made sure to take care of the land which is something Zira failed at clearly. Zira spent most of her time plotting things against Simba, rather than taking care of her home. Anyway, Eberardo has made plenty of friends growing up there, including being good friends with the Queen's cubs (although they are older than he is perhaps a year or 2). It was first discovered by Princess Amana that Eberardo has an excellent sense of smell.

The Princess had no idea that she was being stalked by hyenas one day while on one of her hunts and little Eberardo was able to sniff them out easily before the attack. She thanked the young cub for looking out and of course she went home later telling her mother the exiciting news. Since that day, Queen Zahara has given Eberardo the title "Tracker". His job is track any signs or 'scents' of danger lurking in and about. Sometimes he is also used for when the lionesses go on hunt and need help in search of prey. Eberardo loved using his gift of smell to help others around, but sometimes it did get tiring or boring.

When he became a young adult, something very interesting had happened to him. He was out tracking on 'patrol' if you will, and had come across Vitani's daughter "Laavanya". She was preparing to make a move on Eberardo, but with his very high sense of smell, he was able to dodge her attack quickly. The lioness was confused and questioned how he knew she was there. She was pretty well hidden and quiet. But it was her smell that had made him alert. At first, he was going to report her to the Queen. But Laavanya begged him not to and promise to not come back, so with warning he let her free. But something about her just did not sit will with him. She is up to some sort of plan and he knows it.

A few days later, the same lioness returned but this time not to attack again. She wanted to see Eberardo again and learn of whom he is. It was still a part of her plan, but she was hoping if she can get more 'close' to him, then she can get closer to the pride and the Queen. As a fool, Eberardo fell for it...but wait! Laavanya's "so called" plan went differently. She actually created true feelings for him, seeing him everyday bu sneaking out of her pride at night. Thus, in the end she became pregnant. Eberardo had no idea because she stopped visiting him. Things became very suspicous, so he went out unprotected alone to find her.
