Personality:
Hazina is for the most part a very chilled out lion, who always wants the best for those who cares about. He always puts others before him, even when he probably needs to focus on his own self. He is very dedicated to what he does and once saved his own pride from going hungry, by giving them fish (him being one of the only pride members willing to swim to hunt for them). With loved ones he loves staying by their side whenever possible, and can be very protective if he feels he needs to be.
History:
Hazina was born during Malka’s reign, a very positive reign. Malka was a good leader, who Hazina looked up to a lot. During his cub years he’d often follow Malka. Malka not yet having any cubs of his own actually accepted it, finding it nice to have company on morning patrols.
One day Malka and Simba met up, Simba bringing along his daughter Nyonda. From that day forward the two cubs became really close friends, always meeting up and playing together. Things felt great!
As they began to grow into adults however, Hazina realised he felt something more towards her, but was too scared to admit. She was basically royalty after all, and he was just a regular lion:
When Malka’s pride was struggling for food, when the herds moved, Hazina volunteered to go out and look for a solution. After a few days he found nothing, but that’s when an idea hit him. He started practicing hunting for fish. It was a huge change for the lions, but he knew it would do them for the short while, before the herds would eventually return.
Hazina was offered an advisor role within the pride, which he happily accepted. It felt great having importance.
He continued his meet-ups with Nyonda, often worrying about her, due to the war between the prides of Zira and Simba, and offered to protect her.
