Shenzi (Sapphirejas’s Semi Canon)

Shenzi was a female spotted hyena who resided at the Outlands and the Pridelands. She was the leader of her Hyena Clan before Janja. She was loyal to Scar until Scar said that the hyenas were the ‘enemies.’ She is currently an Evil Spirit of the Past. She was the mate of Banzai, and the mother of Janja, Cheezi, and Chungu. 
== Description ==
Shenzi had grey fur, yellow eyes and black nose. Her underbelly was a lighter colour. She had black paws. She also had black hair coming down from her head to her back. Her muzzle is small and she had a rounded build.
== Personality ==
Shenzi is sassy, but has a longer fuse than most hyenas. Due to her superior intelligence and the fact that she often takes command in more serious situations, she is the leader of the group of hyenas. Shenzi is vicious but also has a sense of humor, albeit a somewhat malicious one, stating that she wants a "cub sandwich" and teasing Banzai by calling him "Cactus Butt" when he falls into a thicket of thorns. This malicious sense of humor is shared wholeheartedly by Banzai and Ed. Shenzi's sense of humor sometimes distracts her however and she doesn't notice Simba, Nala and Zazu fleeing until Ed and Banzai point out that their dinner is escaping.
Throughout most of the film, Shenzi is very loyal to Scar and never disobeys his commands. She reprimands Banzai for wanting to attack wildebeest before Scar's signal. However as time goes on, Shenzi begins to doubt Scar, complaining about the lack of food and water. Finally her faith in Scar is broken completely when he tries to blame her and the other hyenas for Mufasa's death. She also shows a vengeful streak in the climax of the film as she and her fellow hyenas attack Scar and tear him apart for betraying them.
