Kasi-a young lioness cub who stowed away from her pride to escape her life of royalty. She has tan fur, a cream underbelly, and indigo eyes. Despite her young age and small size, Kasi is brave, fearless, and a dare devil. She is also capable of taking out an enemy twice her size. Kasi shows little respect towards those who are not in her pride or team. She does look up to the Storm Hawks and Talon Resistance and later the Skyhawks.  As a teen, she seems to gain a slight more stocky build while still remaining slender followed by a small black spiky hair tuft. 


Chembe-a young porcupine who is a member of Kasi's pride. He has dark reddish brown fur, black quills with white tips (indicating he's an African crested porcupine), and brown eyes. Chembe is shy and timid but is friendly and isn't afraid to stand up to bullies when his courage catches up to him. As a teenager, he appears to be stockier with sharper quills and his fur turns black.


Nyoka-a young reticulated python who is a member of Kasi's pride. She has light brown skin with black markings and teal eyes. Nyoka is subtle and often mute but does occasionally speak in a whispery voice. As a teenager, she appears to be longer.


Sikio-a young bat-eared fox who is a member of Kasi's pride. He has yellow cream fur, mahogany eyes, and black ears, paws, and legs. His tail is also black tipped. Sikio provides much of the brains for Kasi's pride. He is crafty, cunning, and highly intelligent. He is charming and charismatic and has a strong singing voice. As a teenager, he appears to look the same only larger in size and lightly larger ears.


Kuruka-a young caracal who is a member of Kasi's pride. She has brown fur, black ears and paws, light blue eyes, and a white underbelly. Kuruka is highly active and a fast talker. She can sometimes come out as annoying but she hates being mean. As a teenager, she gains a more stocky build and longer ears.


Katibu-a young secretary bird who is a member of Kasi's pride. He is white with a yellow face and black tipped wings. His eyes are gray-blue and his legs are black. He has tiny black quill-like feathers on his head that are white tipped. Katibu is kind and polite but also merciless in battle. As a teenager, his feathers turn more silver than white, and his face grows a reddish orange tinge. He also appears taller and his head quills are longer.


Harufu-a young warthog who is a member of Kasi's pride. He is gray with white tusks and black hooves, tuft tail, and ears. His eyes are amber. Harufu is often clumsy and laidback. He is friendly but stubborn as well. He hates being told what to do but often listens to Kasi's orders. As a teenager, he appears stockier. 


Ulimi-an aardvark who is a member of Kasi's pride. He has a brown fur and green eyes. His massive claws are white. Ulimi is the most made fun of, of Kasi's pride. However, he takes no offense to the name calling. He usually passes it off as a playful joke rather than a hurtful statement. Ulimi is uplifting and cheerful. Despite being an aardvark, Ulimi likes to roll up into a ball and push enemies away. As a teenager, he appears more stocky with longer claws, ears, and snout.


Missile-a cheetah cub, Bullet's twin sister and a member of Kasi's pride. She has yellow cream fur, black spots and white tipped tail, and yellow scleras with orange irises. Her ears are outlined black and has a black nose. Her back is black and white. Missile is a fast talking young cheetah that can move faster than her pride mates. She is sassy, smart, and best in action. As a teenager, she becomes taller and loses her black and white markings.


Bullet-a cheetah cub, Missile's twin brother and a member of Kasi's pride. He has lighter yellow cream fur than his sister, black spots and white tipped tail, and yellow scleras with orange irises. His ears are outlined black and has a black nose. Bullet has been shown to be a very energetic and enthusiastic cheetah, carefree to the point of naïve. It takes a lot for him to become upset, but he is open to forgiving others. As a teenager, he becomes taller and loses his black and white markings. He looks like a king cheetah while his sister looks like a normal cheetah.


Jackie-a black backed jackal and a member of Kasi's pride. She has golden brown fur, yellow scleras and brown irises, black back and tail, white underbelly and inner ears. Unlike others of her species, Jackie is an enthusiastic and friendly jackal. Despite the Storm Hawks, Talon Resistance, and the majority of the Skyhawks distrusting her, Jackie remains in high spirits and confidant the teams will trust her. As a teenager, she becomes taller and gains a more serious yet mischievous side to her personality.


Trivia:

All of the member's names are Swahili except for Bullet, Missile, and Jackie.

Kasi's pride is the third group member of the Skyhawks and the third new team in Atmos who had a musical number in their introduction. The first being the Skyhawks themselves, the second being Shadow Stalk's group.

Kasi states she came from a royal family which is meant to be a gag from lion king (as the show has many)

They are the youngest members of the Skyhawks and the youngest to join before Ferox's pack. 

It's implied that they aged like normal animals. In their debut in season 3, Kasi's pride appear as young children. In season 4 (about a year after joining the team), the pride appear to be older and teenagers. Apello mentions she casted a spell on the animals giving them human aging.

As children, Kasi's pride looks remarkably identical to the baby animals of their species from Wild Kratts. They could be descendants of them.

Rocket and Missile named after their speed.

Jackie's name is close to her species, Jackal.

Jackie is the second character to have her own signature song "Go Jackals Go!" and the only character who's song isn't a parody or reprise of a song from something else.
