The Night Pride (SuperTapirWoman’s fanon)

The Night Pride is a group of lions and other animals at the Tree Of Life sworn to protect it. It was founded by Princess Malika. It is currently lead by Queen Rani and King Kion.
== Leaders ==
Malika (formerly), Druhi (formerly), Barkha (formerly), Janna (formerly, temporarily), Anada (formerly), Sahasi (formerly), Rani (currently), Kion (currently)
== Beliefs ==
The Night Pride follows the same three basic rules of the Circle of Life: 
# No animal, meat-eating or plant-consuming, may take more than she or he needs.
# Every meat-eating animal must honor the prey they kill, and every prey-eating animal must agree to not take this rule to control others’ choices.
# During times of drought, extinction, or famine, the animals must sacrifice some food for the most needy to eat.
They do, however, have their own spin on the three rules. Due to the majority of prey there, it is frowned upon to eat meat as much as possible under the rules. They also have a rule to not terrorize or hunt for sport or fun, similar to the Pridelands’ belief.
== Description and Personalities ==
“With strength and respect, Night Pride, protect!” -slogan of the Night Pride.
The Night Pride are orderly animals, mostly lions, who protect the Tree Of Life and take care of animals there. Despite their duties which they do often, the Night Pride is like any other lion pride. There’s cubs, ceremonies, games, and much more. Most animals of The Night Pride are shown to be respectful, protective, and serious.
== History ==
=== The Founding ===
Princess Malika was leading her group of lionesses to a safe spot from the Evil Lions (ancient). Malika was very tired, but she had to lead her existing pride members to safety. Malika stopped and spotted a area in the distance. She and the lionesses needed somewhere to stay, probably just for the night. The area was clear, mountains that could be used as habitats were there, and a large tree in the center had a very important magic. The lionesses rested. As the home would be good, Malika declared it would be the home of the Night Pride from now on. Thus, the Night Pride was formed.
=== Before The Death Toll ===
The Night Pride used the tree’s magic to heal and make several habitats in the area. They would heal other animals. Malika agreed to this, as she believed in good deeds and was a good healer herself. Malika eventually gave birth to Druhi. Centuries later, Barkha, a member, gave birth to Janna. Janna was the Night Pride’s heir.
When Janna took leadership, she became mates with a strong, bulky, unnamed lion. They, together, had Anada. Anada was weak and feeble as a cub, but grew into a confident and strong lioness. Anada had a younger brother during her cubhood named Surak. Anada became mates with Sahasi, and the two had Rani and Baliyo.
=== The Death Toll ===
Not much is known so far about the Death Toll, but it involved hyenas. More will be revealed soon, but what exactly led up to its existence requires spoilers from Shenzi’s Journey.
=== Present ===
The Lion Guard arrived at the Tree Of Life for some healing. The Night Pride, overtime, became strong allies. When Makucha’s Army threatened the Tree Of Life, the Night Pride attacked. Eventually, Makucha’s Army was banished. The former Lion Guard members merged into the Night Pride. They are currently lead by Rani and Kion.
== Appearnce ==
Most of the Night Pride members are muscular, slender, and beautiful Asiatic lions. However, a few African lions, such as Kion, have wound up in the Tree Of Life. 
== Trivia ==
* The Night Pride was named after the Eclipse Pride,
* The symbol shows a tree with a lion carved into it.
