ThunderCats Idea

In the posts I've been talking about if I were to do my own version of ThunderCats, I said I'd have it so that Thundera would be a diarchy, having a two-king system, with Lion-O and Tygra as Thundera's kings, the former representing the House of Leo, the latter representing the House of Tigris.

Looking to Marcus Aurelius and his son Commodus, I've gotten to thinking that Thundera while officially a diarchy has had more than two kings at a time, on multiple occasions. Commodus wasn't his father's successor as much as he was his father's co-ruler once he reached a certain age. When Marcus Aurelius died, Commodus just continued ruling by himself. In my version, it would be the same with Lion-O and Tygra, they didn't as much succeed their fathers as carry on after them. While I had established in a previous post that Javan would be dead, maybe even appear to Tygra as a ghost that he would initially dismiss as a stress-caused hallucination, it would not be the same with Claudus. Claudus would have been rendered blind much like his 1985 counterpart, causing him to step down, but because he would have been a combination of his 2011 and Roar incarnations, being a tyrannical racist jerk prone to favouritism who had practically been raised by Mumm-Ra disguised as Pumm-Ra, he'd be overly critical of Lion-O , comparing him to his late brother, which would have driven Lion-O to go forth from Thundera to perform heroic deeds and in turn leave the act of actually ruling Thundera to only Tygra when it should be both of them.

Lion-O would be doing good, but because he is rarely in Thundera, he wouldn't be viewed all that greatly by his own people. Him leaving Tygra to do all the work would also be why Tygra is so stressed.

Thinking of it in terms of seasons, Lion-O would spend the first half of the first season away from Thundera, away from Tygra, Panthro and the non-Pantherine characters who will eventually become the ThunderCats when a reform is passed allowing for non-Pantherine cats to become ThunderCats. He'd be off having adventures reminiscent of Prince Valiant (story reminiscent of the "How Heroes Die" arc included), Conan the Cimmerian (story reminiscent of "The Frost Giant's Daughter" included with Conan's enchantment caused lust replaced with an enchantment caused curiosity), maybe even slay a dragon as Sigurd slew Fafnir, while back in Thundera there would be much more political intrigue on Tygra's end. Eventually, there would be a siege that would give cause for Lion-O to return to Thundera and once that was dealt with Lion-O and Tygra would have had a good long talk.

While Tygra would admit that he was angry with Lion-O and Lion-O even admitting he has a right to be angry, Tygra would also admit he never really had Lion-O's back when Claudus was being overcritical of him and that in some way, he contributed to what happened, which of course resulted in the stress of ruling alone and promise Lion-O that for now he would have his back. Lion-O would then promise that he would stay closer to home and that for now on, as long as they both live, they would rule Thundera together. This would result in things like reforms, peace treaties and a general improvement in Thundera, a city-state that has existed in a quasi-perpetual state of war while also becoming corrupted by imperialism and warmongering, a place where it was once said "the greatest thing that would benefit Thundera would be for it to fall."

Just as a little side-note here, Lion-O would probably be missing his left hand, lost in one of his adventures resulting in the Claw Shield/Gauntlet of Omens becoming more than just a shield, gauntlet or sheath for the Sword of Omens. For Lion-O, it would also be his prosthetic. I imagine his face would also be scarred. The loss of the left hand would be inspired by Edison Marshall's portrayal of Ogier the Dane while the scarred visage would be lifted from Conan.
