![]() Lion-O went into the woods, scouting the surrounding area where the ship had crashed, Lion-O came up against the Mutants, and defeated them with the aid of the other Thundercats. He later awakened the other Thundercats, who were able to fight back the Mutants.Īlthough the young Lion-O had aged in the capsule, he had missed out on the life experiences that made a person a man. Lion-O believed he was no longer a boy, and batted away the toys offered to him by Snarf. When the ship crashed on the designated planet, Lion-O's capsule was flung from the ship, and he amazed to see that he had aged dramatically. Lion-O then sadly bid farewell to Jaga as the Thundercats entered their suspension capsules. When the Mutants attacked the ship, Lion-O remained in the sword chamber, where he was eventually found by S-S-Slythe and Jackalman, Lion-O barely had the strength to lift the sword of omens, but he eventually managed to, and the eye of thundera saved the Thundercats by driving the Mutants from the ship. There he witnessed the destruction of his home, and was shown the mystic Eye of Thundera by Jaga, as well as the Sword of Omens. He was awakened by Cheetara, and despite his nursemaid, Snarfs, objections, he went to the bridge at the request of Jaga. Unaware of the chaos going on around him, The young Lion-O slept peacefully aboard the Thunderian flagship which flew away from his dying home planet of Thundera. Lion-O is fierce defender of freedom and a brave and noble leader, one that the other ThunderCats are proud to stand beside. Lion-O can be quick to anger, and is impulsive and headstrong, but also possesses great moral values, at the forefront of those being the Code of Thundera - Justice, Truth, Honour, and Loyalty. Initially a boy stuck in a man's body, the years saw Lion-O develop the wisdom and skills needed to lead the ThunderCats on Third Earth, and later lead the rebuilding of his home world of New Thundera. The hereditary Lord of the ThunderCats, Lion-O is the son of Claudus, the ruler of Thundera at the time of its destruction. ![]() Hope you all enjoy!
