Red Hyena

Prince Baako of Dakana was raised as the favored son of Dakana. He was handsome, athletic, and passionate about protecting his people. Unfortunately, he was also arrogant and presumed he would take over for his father when the time came. When he lost to his sister in the trials to determine the next White Lion, he was furious and ashamed. Rather than supporting his sister in her new role, he left in a rage only to later surface as the Red Hyena, mystically-empowered leader of an outlawed blood-cult dedicated to taking over Dakana, Africa, and ultimately the world.
