KOVU KIBURI

He tries not to think about the life he led in the Outlands, but the past still haunts him to this day. He thinks it’s karma when in actuality, he may have a form of post-traumatic stress disorder.

The scar on his eye used to be a constant reminder of Zira– the lioness who sought to control him. He learned that resembling the evil Scar on the outside didn’t change who he was. Now, he sees the mark in a new light: it is a symbol of strength, for not everyone could endure what he went through.

When someone gains his trust he is fiercely loyal. He’ll be friends with them for life, if they so wish it.

Kovu wants to shield Kiara from the hatred that once consumed him. He vows never to show her the ruthless lion he used to be.

BIOGRAPHY

Kovu never knew his mother, so her loss never held any great importance to him. He still had Vitani, his only surviving sibling. Zira adopted them and Scar was like a father while they were still at Pride Rock. Then Scar died and they were sent to the barren outlands. Kovu was told that he had to be the one to kill Simba in order to avenge Scar’s death. While he never wanted it, the plan was set beyond his wishes. His childhood became training as Zera turned him into little more than a killing machine, cold and filled with hate towards the Pridelanders.

When the time came for their plan to be put into action, Kovu was ready.  He may have appeared to befriend Simba’s daughter, Kiara, but in reality he felt nothing for her. She was just a tool to get him to Simba -- or so he thought.  He “rescued” her from a fire that had been set around her rather easily and earned a position in Simba’s pride for his “bravery.”  The problem was, he didn’t feel nothing for her after all was said and done. Kiara showed him there could be more to life than anger and revenge. In addition, Simba told him the real story of what happened with Scar, forcing Kovu into a new perspective. 

He had a difficult choice between returning to the life he’d known or accepting the new one. Before he could expose the plans of the outsiders, they convinced Simba that Kovu was in on it. Kovu was no longer welcome with either group, and found himself feeling more alone than ever. When Kiara found him, he saw it as a chance to get away and start fresh, where nobody would see him as Scar’s heir, but he also knew she was right when she said they had to stop their families from fighting. Simba came around, but Zira did not. It was almost a relief for Kovu when she died, resolving his inner tensions.  

That resolution didn’t make it any easier to be pushed into an entirely new place.  Simba’s response was to become overprotective.  Kiara’s reponse to rebel.  While Kovu couldn’t leave her at the mercy of her father before he’d gotten back to normal, he was sorely tempted when Vitani set out on her own.  Ultimately, he decided his place was with Simba’s pride, whether they were in Africa or Fableton.

CONNECTIONS

Vitani Kiburi: Love was not an emotion encouraged in the outlands, it was too weak. But Vitani is his sister, and he loves them, even if he doesn’t always understand them.

Kiara Kiburi: Everything is stranger in this world, including his relationship with Kiara. She was still the one who brought him back to life, as he sees it, and he thinks he loves her for that.

Djaq Gelinler:  She’s been into the Chop Shop a few times and he doesn’t mind helping her one bit because he sees something in her, something that appears different from the people she’s sometimes hanging around with.  He thinks if she can be happy and at ease in that sort of a situation, he could too.
