Iena Madaraba

48

Iena is a spotted hyena with short brown hair, light brown eyes and typically dressed in male clothing. Her face, according to herself and her father, is the spitting image of her mother's. As a young child, Iena was often picked on by other hyena children for wearing boy's clothing and her claim to be a male. A very dominant person who becomes angry when she is called a female. Due to her lack of knowledge about Hyena Biology, she grew up thinking she was a male, which is why she grew up to be a tomboy. There is a part of her that wants to be feminine, but due to her aggressive nature, she will never be a "girly girl". Iena is shown to be very strong, even for a normal spotted hyena. More than once, she was able to take out several opponents on her own. Like other spotted hyenas, Iena is shown to have incredibly strong bite force, capable of biting through bones and even stone with relative ease. Her strength and mannerisms are similar to alpha female spotted hyenas, including (but not to be limited to) high aggression towards perceived enemies, and the ability to take on enemies larger than herself.
