| This article is about the lion as it appears in Voltron: Legendary Defender-related interpretations. For a list of other meanings, see Blue Lion (disambiguation). |
The Blue Lion is one of the components of Voltron, serving as the right leg of the giant robo. Its current Paladin is Allura, who was chosen to take the mantle after its former pilot Lance became Paladin of the Red Lion. The Blue Lion was the first of the 5 lions to be found, and reflected Lance's personality of a hyper and fun - loving person. The Blue Lion is also a large lion, not as large as the Black Lion, but larger than the Red and Green Lions, and approximately the same size as the Yellow Lion. However, it remains a long-range targeting lion.
Weapons
The Blue Lion uses a tail laser and the laser in its mouth to destroy targets. The tail laser is much more reliable and focused, while the laser in its mouth is wider and has much more power.
The Blue Lion can discharge ice from its laser mouth, which it used when protecting Balmera V - 95 - Vox from a falling Galra watchtower.
It was later discovered that the Blue Lion has a sonic cannon that can be formed on the Lion's back. Underwater, the blast of this weapon is extremely painful to aquatic lifeforms. The sonic cannon can also be used as a sonic sensor to map out areas, directing sound waves at a location and then presumably receiving them when they bounce back similarly to echolocation.
Lance's Bayard cannot be used in effect with Voltron's attacks as of yet.
Trivia
- Lance refers to the Blue Lion as "beautiful" once, an adjective most often used with females.
- The original blue paladin of voltron was named Blaytz, from the planet Nalquod.
