==Biography==
===Early life===
Sarafina lived in the Pride Lands as a member of Mufasa's pride. At some point in her life, she took on a mate, with whom she had a daughter named Nala. When Nala was young, Sarafina arranged for her to be betrothed to Simba, the prince heir of Pride Rock.
===Mufasa's reign===
One afternoon, Sarafina bathed Nala. Nala's friend, Simba, arrived and asked Nala to play with him, but Sarafina reminded him that Nala was in the middle of her bath. After Nala's bath, Sarafina allowed the cubs to play, though Simba's mother, Sarabi, instructed them to bring Zazu with them.
Later, Sarafina and the lionesses were informed by Scar that Mufasa and Simba had perished in a wildebeest stampede. Afterwards, Scar became the king of Pride Rock and used his executive powers to allow the hyenas into the Pride Lands, which shocked and displeased the lionesses.
