HEIGHT: Pretty tall for a mandrill.

OVERALL APPEARANCE:
Rafiki looks like a crazy mandrill. Oh, wait, that's because he is one. But does he look like he could beat the sh*t out of you in a fight with his mad Kung Fu skills? Not at the first glance.
He looks like he's aging, but at the same time, there is a certain liveliness in his eyes that will never die. His tail is long, bent, kinked and frayed. Above his eyes, his big gray unibrow protrudes seriously like, three inches in front of his face. It's ridiculous, but Rafiki still finds himself attractive. ;D

WANTS: To chill eternally in his Baobab Tree and to help the Pridelanders.
FEARS: The sky falling and being eaten by a lion.
OVERALL PERSONALITY:
Rafiki is a wise old creature; he seems to have a piece of advice for everyone who needs it. He has a sense of humor and fun, and an aura of friendliness, astuteness and enlightenment.
Rafiki reads omens, studies plants, does nice little stylistic paintings on his Baobab tree, gives great advice, knows every proverb there is to know, tells hilarious jokes and talks to spirits. Although he comes off as crazy, he has a lot to teach and always even more to learn.
FAMILY:
Nefu, his nephew.
HISTORY:
Rafiki was a nomadic mandrill when he was younger. He had a girlfriend, but nobody but Rafiki knows what happened to her. When he first came to this area, he was saved by Mufasa's father, Ahadi, from Ed, Shenzi and Banzai. He befriended Mufasa and advised him, earning him his place in the Baobab tree. He taught Timon about Hakuna Matata, he taught Simba to look within himself and see his father living on. He knew about Kovu and Kiara far before they did. He's made predictions and given advice since he showed up in the Pridelands.
