Lion King AU

Lion King AU is an AU introduced through fanart, depicting the Big Four (or at least one of the characters) as lions.

About this AU
This AU was formed through fanart of the Big Four as lions.

As the name may imply, most writers and artists portray them as lions that exist within the world of Disney's The Lion King as a template, but this is not required.

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III
Being the heir of his tribe and becoming chief after he saved Berk from a cruel leader that killed his father makes him a Simba like character; and can easily be portrayed as him. While being the leader of a group that keeps their home safe, makes him, Astrid and their friends members of the Lion Guard.

Astrid Hofferson
When Hiccup is seen as a Simba like character, Astrid is portrayed Nala. As well as being a member of the Lion Guard, as both the guard and the first Dragon Riders of Berk work together with their friends to keep their home and its inhabitants safe.

Zephyr Haddock
Since Hiccup is commonly cast and seen as a Simba-like character, while Astrid is sometimes cast as Nala for the Hiccstrid pairing, and Zephyr is Hiccup and Astrid's daughter and first born child, which might make her as his heir, fans can easily cast Zephyr as Kiara. Like Kiara, Zephyr has a younger brother.

Nuffink Haddock
Since Hiccup is commonly cast and seen as a Simba-like character, while Astrid is sometimes cast as Nala for the Hiccstrid pairing, and Nuffink is Hiccup and Astrid's son, fans can easily cast Nuffink as Kion. Like Kion, Nuffink has a older sister.
