Before you start laughing, Scan actually means see/sight in Swahili.
Boring Character information: Scan may look big and tough, but she's got a softspot. Especially for Kifo, her best friend. Her scars are from a young adult experience, in which she'd earned trying to protect the pride's cubs from an onslaught of baboons who'd ascended upon them. She'd lost not only her right eye, toe, and part of her ear, but also the cubs in that brutal fight. It was then that she realized that their plight amongst a male dominated world was unjust and unfair as she was treated like a cub killer when it wasn't even her fault.
She's always seen with Kifo, never leaving the unstable lioness' side. She seems to be the only one to keep Kifo from attacking other lionesses when Kifo feels threatened in any way. A voice of reason if you will. She is apart of Kifo's Hunter squad, her brute strength coming in hand when it comes to wearing down their selected targets before the strikers, Rasha's squad, come in for the kill. They say it takes a pride to raise a cub, but also to kill a full grown lion.
