Makuu (Sapphirejas’s Semi Canon)

Makuu is a male freshwater crocodile. He is the leader of his float and a resident of the Pridelands. He is the son of Pua, and the brother of Kiburi. 
== Description ==
Makuu has green scales and yellow eyes. His underbelly and under jaw is lighter in colour. He has darker green spikes on his back and lighter green stripes on his back too. He has black claws on his feet. And he has sharp white teeth.
== Personality ==
When initially introduced, Makuu is a young and courageous crocodile, but is also very prideful and arrogant. While he is no doubt strong, he is fairly mean-spirited and disrespectful towards others, always eager to pick a fight, believing that physical strength is the most important part of being a leader. Though physically tough and powerful, Basi notes that his fighting technique is inferior to that of Pua's. He believes that only weak and cowardly leaders are afraid to fight. Makuu does, however, know when he cannot win a fight, and will back down if so. He can be power-hungry and has no regard for the rules, especially when it comes to the Flood Plains.
As the dry season comes near, Makuu discards his old ways becomes more responsible over time, wanting to ensure the survival of his float. He appears to have gained respect for the Circle of Life and the monarchy. He is willing to negotiate peacefully for the benefit of his float and the other Pride Landers, and will also show respect towards those that behave as his species does. Despite this, Makuu initially had problems with teamwork and was highly iritable towards Pride Landers who were not crocodiles as he and his float were highly independent and expected othe animals to be the same way as shown in "Pride Landers Unite". This changes after the Lion Guards's new army help save Makuu's float and watering fall from an attack by the Outlanders. He thanks the Pride Landers for their help and promises to return the favor whenever they need help. 
He is very intolerant of anyone in his float going against his direct orders, and shows that he is able to forgive those that make a mistake. He also views the safety of his float as being more important than his own wellbeing, a sign he has grown well into his new role.
