Character Name: Princess Allura Series: Voltron: Legendary Defender Timeline: Post Season 8 Canon Resource Links:Wiki I // Wiki II // Episode summaries
Personality: When you’re a princess, it is well-understood that everyone has certain expectations of you. You must be gracious, poised, elegant and serene. Be confident without being cocky, be decisive without being demanding. Be patient, be strong.
Allura isn’t sure if she lives up to those expectations, and now that Altea is gone, she isn’t sure if it’s necessary to meet them at all or if her being the last scion of dead world means that it’s more necessary than ever to uphold those traditions. The pressure is immense for one so young; she knows that it’s up to her to carry on the legacy of a planet that has been lost to the sands of time, and the late King Alfor left some very large shoes for her to fill.
Allura is equal parts passion and compassion, never doing anything in half-measures. Following in her father’s footsteps, she rises to the challenges of leadership with natural aplomb, though not always without a struggle: Allura tends to hide her feelings when she thinks they might negatively impact the team, and the spotlight of diplomacy can leave her feeling uneasy and overwhelmed. When facing difficult decisions, however, he never wavers for very long; her drive to protect others and defeat the Galra makes prioritizing her choices fairly simple. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.
She is brave to the point of recklessness, throwing herself into the fray against the counsel of her friends and advisors with a stubbornness that has put her in danger on more than one occasion. For the sake of the mission, to alleviate suffering, to save her friends, she would go to any length with no regard to personal safety. Her determination to succeed is driven by the terrible losses she’s suffered, and her rage against the Galran Empire for taking her home and family from her. It sometimes causes her to lash out or act irrationally, though she’s usually able to self-correct after some honest reflection. She does try to be reasonable, since most of the Paladins are so very young and don’t always behave logically.
Anger isn’t Allura’s only driving motivation, of course. She’s grown to love her friends more than anything, and she wants to see them safe and happy--to end the war for all their sakes. Through the course of their adventures, Allura has always been there to encourage the Paladins to work together as a team. She’s been a shoulder for them to lean on, as well as someone for them to rally behind, providing both support and guidance, as well as receiving it in return. When Shiro disappeared, she even stepped up to the plate to become a Paladin of Voltron herself, just as her father had been many centuries before.
Even though her journey has reached its end in her world, there is still so much for her to learn, and so much room to grow. She made the ultimate sacrifice so her friends could reap the benefits of victory; it was the hardest choice she’d ever made, but also the easiest one. Still, there’s no denying the fact that she wanted to live long enough to see her labors come to fruition, to help rebuild the universe in the wake of a seemingly endless war, to be embraced by the family that she had pieced together after she thought she’d lost everything. She loved her friends, and she loved her life, so she gave it up so they could live.
Perhaps, somewhere in the multiverse, there’s a new place where her adventure can begin again.
