Sumu

""And do it I will!""

- Sumu, The Scorpion's Sting

Sumu is a male scorpion from the Outlands and is the one responsible for paralyzing Simba with a deadly venom.

Appearance
Sumu is a large black scorpion with red eyes and gray markings all over his body. He also has a pair of very large pincers.

Personality
Described to be a highly dangerous and a deadly killer, Sumu would go to any lengths of killing his victim(s) with a venomous sting. He is also very loyal to Scar and will follow his commands, though he becomes somewhat anxious when he learns that Scar plans to bring the Lion Guard into the Outlands Volcano.

The Scorpion's Sting
Scar has recruited Sumu to sting Simba on the anniversary of Scar’s defeat. At first, it seemed like he was as large as a lion, but as the camera humorously zoomed out, he is revealed to be an average-sized scorpion. Despite being much larger, Janja was terrified of him, jumping onto Reirei and Kiburi. After informing the leaders of Sumu's role, Scar sends the latter out to inject Simba with his venom.

Sumu is later seen climbing Pride Rock while Rafiki and the Pridelanders sing, Good King Simba. During the song, Sumu seizes the opportunity to sting Simba on the tail, poisoning him. The diminuitive arachnid then made a dash for the Outlands, where he was later spotted by Ono suspecting him to be the cause of Simba's pedicament. Kion, then leads The Lion Guard after him. The young lion then pounces on the scorpion. But when it seems like he's gotten him, Kion notices the scorpion had escaped down a hole. Ono then investigates above. He then sees Sumu escaping out the other side of the tunnel, which lead into the Outlands. When the egret reports to the guard, Bunga yells at the scorpion not to come back, angered that he had stung his adopted brother.

Later, Scar praises Sumu for his work. The evil ghost then commands Ushari to be ready, as the Lion Guard will be arriving for the volcanic ash to heal Simba, to which the evil snake agrees to do. Sumu then shows confusion, questioning Scar on why he'd want the Lion Guard to come to him. Scar then tells Sumu that he has helped him set the perfect trap.
