Small details about Allura:

Her voice claim: La Muerte - The Book of Life

Species: Togruta

Age: 25

S/O: Viper (we love generals x their commanders..)

Lore - Allura:

Allura is a Togruta jedi who is the general of the 409th battalion. She started training to be a Jedi when she was 14 and was later knighted just before she turned 18. A little while later she was given her own battalion to lead as the general.

By the time she turned 21 she had her first padawan, Rylan - a young 15 year old, very overconfident boy.. while training Rylan, it was revealed by Obi-wan that one of the newer younglings was refusing to partake in any training with the others, so essentially the council decided to try putting the youngling under Allura's care as the Jedi was known for being calm and careful with younglings and children.

Turns out they had made the right decision as the youngling, Zena, was now much more comfortable and compliant when training. She then quickly became Allura's 2nd padawan after the council came to the decision to allow it.

Now Allura was left with 2 little shits... Great... (jkjk she loves them with all her heart)

She adores the clones and will absolutely defend them with her life. She also shares many of the same views as her good friend Riyo Chuchi about the clones, wanting them to have their freedom, etc. She is also seen having a close friendship with Padme, Shaak ti, Obi-wan, Plo Koon and later during the Clone Wars, Ahsoka.

Speaking of the clones, Allura cherishes her boys deeply. Every single one of them. She gets on well even with the grumpiest of the commanders (looking at you Wolffe…) and she cares about them all. She actually tries to encourage them all to relax every so often since she knows how tense and stressed some of them can get (Rex.. Cody... VIPER....)

(The Clone Wars began when Allura was 22, Rylan was 16 and Zena was 13. It ended when Allura was 25, Rylan was 19 and Zena was 16)

Personality & Feelings:

Main traits: Sweet, calm and protective

Within the Jedi temple, Allura is known for being one of the calm and wise jedi. She is always level-headed and tries not to rush into situations. She is seen as being incredibly sweet - especially to the younglings and clones - and friendly and knowledgeable to her fellow jedi.

A lot of the younglings look up to her and trust her wisdom and kind words. She enjoys surprising them with visits when she can and enjoys helping them train their abilities in the jedi temple. Many admire her for this and believe she is a good role model for the young ones.

When she is having a hard time and meditation doesn't help, she will eventually give up and will either go to Viper, Cipher or Pulse to talk or even just sit together for a bit. She enjoys both silence and chatting - silence gives her solitude and allows her to completely focus on her inner thoughts while a bit of chatter allows her to feel reassured - especially when she is just sitting listening to her boys of the 409th talking amongst each other and her padawans joining in. It allows her to feel at home...

Rylan and Zena:

Rylan was 15 when he became Allura's padawan. He was overconfident and cocky when her first met her, but overtime she managed to change him into a respectful, sweet and clever boy.

Zena was 13 when she officially became Allura's 2nd padawan. She was quiet and typically kept to herself until she interacted with Rylan more. He ended practically becoming her big brother and she cares for him deeply, glad she managed to finally make a friend.

Rylan's voice claim: Marshall Lee - Adventure Time

His species: Human

Zena's voice claim: Powder - Arcane (was originally young Marceline - Adventure time but wasn't sure it fitted her well enough)

Her Species: Pantoran

The 2 of them work hard to impress Allura and their bond grows everyday. After a while of finally beginning to talk more and grow more comfortable around people, Zena eventually started talking to the boys of the 409th - to their absolute delight as they adored the young girl and wanted her to feel safe around them. Overtime she seemed to grow especially attached to Pulse, Cipher and Static.

Now, lore about the 409th:

So, I'll start Viper and Cipher. Both Viper and Cipher were in the same squad from the beginning and the two were introduced to commander training after showing their capabilities and strength on the field. While Viper was successful with training, Cipher seemed to struggle a little which put him a bit behind - however, he still showed amazing talent and leadership skills. So, rather than aiming for the Commander role, Cipher aimed to become a sergeant instead - which he succeeded in and became the sergeant for the 409th.

Next came Pulse, Flashpoint, Static and Glint. Static and Glint were actually in the same squad and had been practically attached at the hip since they were born. Many seen the two as being 'twins' and they have never left each other's side since day 1. They did surprisingly well in training and their squad quickly made it onto the field after showing their capabilities. Jesse was actually also in their squad and the 3 of them kept in touch even after training and being put in different battalions.

Pulse and Flashpoint were actually in Wolffe's squad for training and kind of got a little bit of his personality after they passed in training - hence why Pulse almost always seems to share the same attitude as the grumpy, gruff commander. Fun fact: Flashpoint had a HUGE fascination with heavy artillery and weapons growing up, clearly the leading reason to why he became the 409th's heavy gunner.

Ace, Dawn and Aeros were in the same squad for training until Aeros was switched to flight training instead. Though, the 3 of them remained close even during training apart. Aeros ended up finishing training first and became 1/3 pilots for the 409th while Ace and Dawn's squad struggled with training for a while. Then, the group finally succeeded and were sent to the 409th.

Fuse was apart of Cody's squad and was initially recruited into the 212th until a swap was made and he was transferred to the 409th. Drift and Tailspin were in the squad for pilot training that Aeros was moved to and the 3 grew close quickly - effectively becoming the mischief flight trio.

Their Personalities / traits:

Viper: Protective, Firm, Soft when he wants to be

Cipher: Playful, enthusiastic, voice of reason

Pulse: Fair, steady, firm, patient

Flashpoint: Joker, an absolute sweetheart, definitely besties with Hardcase

Static: Honest, Funniest lil guy ever, blunt and intrusive

Glint: basically the same as static and cipher accept a bit more cautious

Ace: Passionate, imaginative, alert, I feel like he would get along well with Tup

Dawn: dedicated, selfless, independent, caring in his own way

Aeros: the glue holding everyone together istg, sweet lil baby, impulsive

Fuse: this old man needs a break... loyal, clever, precise

Drift: open-minded, charming, 100% brainrotted I fear...

Tailspin: laid-back, fun, likes to impress, gets all giddy when people appreciate his stunts.
