==Biography==
===Early life===
Kwato lived in the Pride Lands. He was a member of Thurston's herd.
===Janja's attack===
Kwato faked a hyena attack with his friends, as they were in the middle of a game about the Lion Guard. Their game, however, frightened a group of Pride Landers, and the real Lion Guard showed up, demanding to know what was going on. Meekly, Kwato and his friends padded forward, explaining their game to the Lion Guard. Mtoto then invited the Lion Guard to play with them. Despite the young animals' excitement, Kion explained that they had business elsewhere.
Later, after Mtoto trained with the Lion Guard, Kwato and his friends expressed amazement at Mtoto's experience. However, they despaired that he would not want to play with them anymore. To their delight, he started up another game with them, during which they pretended that the hyraxes were hyenas. While they were playing, Janja and his cronies, Cheezi and Chungu, began to follow them.
Eventually, the young animals chased the hyraxes to safety and wondered what to do next. Just then, Janja and his cronies appeared, and the young animals ran away in fear. Kwato managed to escape, but Mtoto was pursued by the three hyenas. With his other remaining friends, Kwato alerted Beshte to the danger, and he left to save Mtoto.
After Mtoto's safe return, Kwato listened eagerly to his tale of escape. Shortly afterward, Kion volunteered to gift each child with a muddy mark of the Lion Guard, and the young animals immediately crowded around him, eager to receive their mark.
===Makuu's attack===
Kwato was with his herd at the Flood Plains when Makuu and his float invaded.
==Physical appearance==
Small and slender, Kwato has the typical black and white stripes of a zebra. His eyes are lavender.
==Personality and traits==
Kwato is notorious for causing trouble around the Pride Lands, as he thinks little about the repercussions of his games. He does, however, take instruction well and looks up to the Lion Guard, respecting their authority and experience.
