Mala was a character within the continuity of Tofauti Sawa. She was Alika and Munirah's mother, mate of Chenzira and former mate of Kuanga. She died later in life due to illness.

Summary


Headstrong and stubborn. Exiled from her pride after mating with a nomad male and attempting to kill the current male of the pride, being subjected to raise her daughters alone- which was easier said than done. Despite this hardship, she loved her daughters a great deal and sacrificed a pride life to make sure no dominant lion or lioness killed them.  She was very superstitious. Viewed leucistic and albino animals as inferior- a mindset she had even while being mates with Kuanga but only increased as time passed. She made sure to teach her daughters all of her worldviews before eventually dying of illness.

Appearance


Mala was a skinny dark brown lioness with a lighter colored underbelly and paws. She has two dark brown spots on her forehead and black tipped ears and tail. Has scars on her chest, left forearm, and flank due to many conflicts. Eyes are brown. Has bags and crow's feet around her eyes due to stress.
