Name: Nisei (Calls himself Legion since early adolescence)
DOB: The same year as Nuka and Jakarta
Pride: Izusa Escarpment
Tribe: Outsiders
Family Background:
Legion is the son of Scar and Zira, the littermate brother of Nuka. He is therefore the half-brother of Kovu and Vitani.
Color Scheme
Base Color: Dark orange
Light zones (toe tips): Cream
Dark zones (over eyes, inner ears): Black
Mane, Tail tuft: Black
Eye Irises: Either 'Vitani-blue' or 'Simba-orange', one of the two
Other:
Legion has the build of Scar and Nuka and a few other similarities. His left front leg is deformed, permanently stuck as if
were cradling it. He has to limp around on his three good legs.
Zomielove:
This is a good example of a slightly younger Legion, perhaps just as he's beginning to lose bits of his
sanity as he becomes consumed with revenge-lust. I particularly like his hair. Zomielove tries out the
oragne-ish iris color here.
Jhale:
Jhale gives a look at Legion as a cub, which will be used in the first part of the "Love's Not Strong
Enough" song. She also tries out a "Vitani" blue for his eyes, which might make a very striking contrast
against Jothra's deeper baby blues.
*P.O.L.A.*:
Mirri:
Here POLA sets Legion at his natural habitat: the Izusa Escarpment that serves as his base of operations
against his enemies. The orange irises and tan inner mane go with the character very well, and I especially
like the structure of the nose bridge that POLA uses here.
This is probably the most official depiction of Legion, along with Timali's below. The scruffy hair, mane
and whiskers don't get in the way of his obvious intelligence, and the haughty expression is the
character's calling card. Leave it to an artist like Mirri to bring the complete package to life.
Tipu:
Somebody's maaaaaaaaad! Legion lip-lashes his lackadaisical leopard lackeys courtesy of the
oh-so-talented Timali. Legion's form is perfect here, and the full picture in Timali's gallery gives a great
look at all the lovely leopards. Our lead loser may be livid, but enough of these 'L' words already.
