This article is about the royal heir and Lion Force pilot as she appears in Voltron: Defender of the Universe-related interpretations. For a list of other meanings, see Allura (disambiguation).

In the original Japanese version Beast King GoLion, her name was Fara or Princess Fala (ファーラ姫, Fāra Hime?).

Fiction

Voltron: Defender of the Universe continuity

Princess Allura spent at least part of her childhood in the Castle of Lions. Her parents were often away on royal matters. During her childhood, she met the Space Mice. [1] Sometime before the events of the series, her father King Alfor was killed. At the time Keith and company arrived on Planet Arus, she and Coran were the only people in the castle. [2]

After the castle got a new keep [3], survivors of the bombing of Arus went to the castle to volunteer to fight the forces of Planet Doom. After Sven was injured in an attack by Haggar [4], Allura started flying the Blue Lion. [5]

She spent at least a few months balancing training to fly Blue Lion and executing her duties as princess, believing that she had properly come into her role as the latter when she refused the last offer of replacement as the former [6]. One day, she met Prince Lotor [7], who developed quite a crush on her. She would be the object of some of his attacks on Arus.

Princess Allura is the niece of Queen Orla, who rules a distant kingdom on Planet Arus. [8] She also visited Planet Pollux, and started friendly relations with the royal family there. [9]

Voltron: The Third Dimension

B.J. Ward reprised her role as Princess Allura in the 1998/1999 computer-animated series. Now in her late 20s/early 30s, the princess has a lion's paw device allowing her to contact the lions and discovers more about their spiritual nature. She is also virtually the only protagonist to wear anything besides a close-fitting bodysuit; on rare occasion Allura actually wears a dress with a long skirt, which is far more difficult to computer animate yet also far more appropriate for a princess.

Devil's Due comics continuity

Modern Comics continuity

Allura is present in all three issues of the Modern comics mini-series. Her most prominent role is in the third issue, wherein she is captured and held hostage.
