Info: Illegal experimentation on a pair of Cheetah cub brothers resulted in the two being fused into one body with two heads, each retaining their own personality. It was not long afterward that an internal power outage occurred at the facility, and along with another mutated Cheetah, Static (also goes by Tuli which means the same in Swahili), who freed them from their cage, they both escaped to the wild. The two cheetahs ultimately decide to stick together, even after finding a safe haven to live in, forming an odd Coalition of sorts. 

While both of them are intelligent, when they had been separate, Zakia had been more of a strategist, preferring to avoid close combat situations, whereas Jabari was more daring, willing to confront when it was necessary, even when unsafe. So while they had always gotten along, it still took a while for them to learn to work more together and think as one body. Before long they were in complete sync though and, even though they still have disagreements sometimes on how to go about something which can turn into squabbles, they always figure out ways to compromise.
