[@Chiro] I really like that idea and I'd definitely be down for you playing Kovu's aunt lol. There's another person here incorporating a mashed together backstory from various platforms like you are so by all means go for it! OUAT did it quite often, so have fun with it lol. 

As for your idea specifically, what if Zira/Huruma was also the Dark One? It would make sense seeing as she has control over names and such. You don't have to do this though, merely a suggestion. I think naming her Zira would connect her more directly to Disney but there's no reason you can't add the Huruma stuff in somehow as well. Maybe she traveled worlds and that's her name in another world...idk. 

No thoughts yet from anyone on the Savior role?
