The Outlanders, also known in some parts of the movie as the Outsiders, are a pride of lions that were banished by Simba to the Outlands because of them being Scar's heir. The Outlanders only appear in The Lion King II: Simba's Pride. The leader of the Outlanders is Zira, who is the mother of Kovu, Nuka, and Vitani, and the only one of the exiled who is confirmed to feel loyalty to Scar. At the end of the movie, all of the remaining Outlanders are allowed to rejoin the Pridelanders after Simba realizes his mistake, thus dissolving the Outlanders pride.
Physical Differences to the Pridelanders
While the lionesses in Simba's pride have a golden colored fur, the Outlander lionesses have slightly more muted and dull fur tones, and in comparison, the Outlander lionesses are much thinner than the ones in Simba's pride, possibly due to the fact the Outlands have "little food... less water..." (as stated by Zira).
Throughout the movie, some of the Outlander lionesses have been shown to have unique facial markings or small scars. Two such lionesses appear twice, known by some fans as Spotty and Dotty, although they never speak, they have a distinct pattern of spots under their eyes, making them readily discernible from their fellow Outlanders. Other lionesses with unique facial features have also been seen, such as one with tufts of fur around her neck and head, and one with a small spot on her lower right chin, known as Beauty-spot, and one with a hair tuft very similar to Vitani's.
