Physical Attributes
Shenzi's appearance is very square and ragged, her forehead has bangs protruding from her, and she has a black and gray coat. As with the custom of hyenas, she has a curved back that slants upwards with a tuft of fur at the tip. Her eyelids and lips are lined with black; and her ears are straight and flexible. She has a tan underbelly, and a darker spot that protrudes half of her leg.
Information
Shenzi has a sassy personality and tends to take control over the three other hyenas, Banzai and Ed. She can be very vicious if tempted, though is also at times distracted by other happenings.
The Lion King
Shenzi is one of the many hyenas that are ruled by the malicious Scar, self-appointed king of the Pride Lands. Before Mufasa's death, the hyenas had been treated with hatred and often hunted in the Pride Lands for food, ending with dreadful injuries. When Scar told the hyenas his plan to conquer Pride Rock, they readily agreed, for food was scarce and Scar had promised all the food their stomachs could handle. The time Simba and Nala had strayed into the Outlands, the hyenas (Shenzi being one of them) began chasing them until the poor cubs were trapped, when suddenly Mufasa leaped into the air and fought with the hyenas until they finally gave up and didn't bother them anymore.
When Simba was still a cub, they were ordered to chase after the herd of wildebeests, part of Scar's plan for domination, unfortunately leading to Mufasa's death. After Mufasa was killed, Scar wanted them to chase Simba down and kill him; the hyenas only go so far when Simba stumbled into a patch of thorns and managed to get out unharmed while Banzai accidentally fell into them. Shenzi was the one responsible for not killing Simba, the whole plot may have changed if this had not happened.
Scar finally assumes the throne and the hyenas are treated with loads of food, as promised, until the bountiful meat runs scarce and water dwindles. Shenzi tried to convince Scar to help them, but he sent them out when Banzai foolishly mentioned Mufasa's name.
After Simba fights Scar, Shenzi and the hyenas overhear Scar blaming them for Mufasa's death. When the hyenas corner Scar for his betrayal, he tries to weasel his way out before the hyenas supposedly eat him alive[1].
The Lion King 1½
Shenzi makes a few brief appearances in The Lion King 1½. Once in the beginning, where she along with the other Hyena's attempt to attack Timon. She shows up again towards the end, but only briefly, doing her part from The Lion King.
