Ushari is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Janja) of Disney's The Lion Guard series.
He is an Egyptian cobra that serves Scar as his second in command.
He was voiced by Christian Slater, who also played Jason Dean in Heathers.
His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- Helped Janja and his crew summon Scar back as a spirit so he can cause trouble to the Pride Lands.
- Despite initially helping out with resurrecting Scar under the threat of being eaten by Janja, he continued to willingly aid in Scar's plans and proved to be extremely sadistic. He's even shown to enjoy being evil.
- While he may have been friends with Timon and Pumbaa as shown when he smiled at them in Kupatana, he subverts this when he goes with Scar's plan to turn Pride Rock into a wasteland, which would have killed them.
- Tried to trap the Lion Guard in the Volcano to let Simba die.
- When he learned about Scar's plans to have Kion make the volcano erupt with the Roar of the Elders, which would turn the Pride Lands into a wasteland, Ushari went along with it and even enjoyed the idea.
- He repeatedly assists Scar in coming up with ways to gruesomely kill the Guard or their friends and families. One such example is when Beshte is stranded in the Outlands and Scar and Ushari are adamant that Beshte be crushed to death.
- During his time as Scar's second in command, he often berates and insults the hyenas as fools and seems to greatly dislike having to rely on them as minions.
- Bit Kion in the eye, injecting him with a venom that would slowly bring out Kion's darkest instincts and make him lose control of the roar.
- As one last act of spite, he attempts to avenge Scar by killing Kion but is stopped by Bunga and Ono and dies in a similar fashion to Zira.
- Kion's scar would cause him to have a personality change and become ruder and more violent, meaning Scar and Ushari were indirectly responsible for the bad change in Kion's character. Not only that, but Ono temporarily lost his sight for a long time due to Ushari's attempt to murder Kion. It took Kion several months of healing at the Tree of Life to finally overcome Ushari's venom.
- He and Scar were indirectly responsible for the formation of Makucha's Army and most of the events of the third season as well as the Lion Guard not being around to help stop Zira.
- He stands out for being responsible for the creation of Scar's army by summoning his spirit.
- While he tried to protect Scar, becoming upset when he was finally defeated, and tried to avenge him before being pushed to his death by Bunga, it was only because he found Scar useful as he says around twice "And then us reptiles can rule the Pridelands" hoping to rule the Pridelands at the end.
What Prevents Him from Being Pure Evil?[]
- He seems to be caring or at least honorable to reptiles, not necessarily always being out for himself, as he explicitly stated in some instances that he hoped the reptiles can rule the Pridelands, not just him.
- He fails the Heinous Standards to Scar due to most of his worst deeds being done under his orders though he needs Scar's spirit to help him.
- He is arguably somewhat tragic, as he was treated as the Butt-Monkey of Season 1, barely doing anything antagonistic and generally being attacked by others, especially Bunga, and even being prevented by Bunga from eating galagos when he wasn't even overhunting, leading him to his turn to villainy. However, due to him being one of the most heinous characters in the series, he is still not tragic enough to be VB.
