Thace is a soldier of the Galra Empire working under Commander Prorok. He mysteriously enables the Voltron team to escape during their attempt to rescue Princess Allura from Zarkon's Central Command, with everyone left unaware. Thace is actually a spy working for a rebel Galra faction called the Blade of Marmora. After Prorok is suspected of Thace's actions instead and taken away to become a Robeast, Zarkon promotes Thace to the rank of Commander and places him in charge of investigating for spies within the Empire.

Unfortunately, Thace is cornered by the investigations of Haggar and her Druids, and is brutally tortured for information; the rebel refuses to crack under the pain, and escapes his bonds to assist the Voltron Team in disabling power on Zarkon's Command Ship by detonating the Central Hub. His attempt is successful, but Thace willingly dies in the resulting explosion.

Appearance

Thace is an athletic, mature-aged Galra with perky hair/fur and purple skin. He is above-average height for a Galra soldier and he uses his muscular build to his advantage during fights. He has humanoid features like two arms, five fingers on each hand, a Roman nose, and yellow eyes. He has strong cheekbones, intense eyebrows some modest chin scruff. He also has white streaks in his hair, which in Human culture, indicates maturity and wisdom.

Personality

Due to his limited screen time, much of Thace's personality can only be discerned through his actions.

As one of the spies of the Blade of Marmora, Thace is dutiful soldier, dedicated to the downfall of Zarkon and commits himself solely to his duties. A sign of his immensely disciplined mind is his ability to activate his luxite blade, which can only be achieved by Galrans of immense willpower and humility. Due to his role as a spy, Thace is calm, collected, and incredibly observant, being one of the top-ranked moles within Zarkon's ranks. He seldom emotes more than his orders, and he is a level-headed individual.

Thace is also a rather intelligent individual, able to deduce Keith's Galran heritage by how he was able to wield a Marmoran luxite blade.

Thace is ultimately characterized by his unselfish and self-sacrificing nature, putting himself in constant risk for his cause, and in the end willingly gave up his life in order to see the end of Zarkon's reign despite Keith's protests for him to leave with him.

Abilities

Due to his role as a spy, Thace was an expert in subterfuge, sabotage, computer hacking and communications, deception, and more. As an agent of the Blade of Marmora, Thace was also a master swordsman, able to activate his blade even when not in direct contact with it, such as when he freed himself from captivity by awakening the sword through sheer willpower to cut through his restraints. Thace was also highly resistant to torture and interrogation, suffering from days of relentless torment and electro-torture from Haggar and her druid underlings without cracking. He was practically fearless, and rigged the central control room of Zarkon's flagship and base as a bomb, dying with a smile on his face.
