Drule Character Bios

I’ve discussed the Drules as a people  on this blog before but haven’t talk about the individual characters very much besides Hazar and Dorma. Therefore I’ve written some brief biographies about some of the Drules in the Vehicle Voltron season of Voltron: Defender of the Universe. Keep in mind this is not a complete list of all the Drule characters. There are A LOT of them, so I’ve narrowed it down to the ones who either played a major role in the series or who I personally found memorable. I might add more characters to this list later but for now I think I’ve covered most of the notable Drules.

Name: Emperor Zeppo

Dairugger Name: Emperor Corsair

About:  A greedy, power hungry schemer. He manages to avoid capture by promising Hazar he’ll give up his war making ways if the rebels let him go. However, upon escape he makes for planet Dema where he’s secretly building up a new army to resume his conquests.

Episode to shine: Zeppo’s role isn’t nearly as large as you’d think. He doesn’t get much screen time until late in the series.

Name: Grand Viceroy Throk

Dairugger Name: Supreme Commander Al Caponero

About: Throk is one of the most power hungry, prideful, and outspoken members of the Supreme Council. He’s vocally opposed any sort of cooperation with the Galaxy Alliance, seeing them as invaders out to steal planets that rightly belong to the Drule Empire. Not only that, but sees making peace with the Alliance as an insult to the Drule’s honor, something he ties strongly to their military might and conquests, and pride. He absolutely hates Hazar for his attempts at peacemaking and, it’s implied, is jealous of Hazar’s power. At one point Throk imprisons Hazar in his palace.

At the end of Vehicle Voltron he and a few other members of the council flee planet Drule and presumably joins Emperor Zeppo on planet Dema.

Episode to shine: Plays a major role in many episodes, but if I had to pick one I’d go with “It’s Anybody’s World.”

Name: Commander Hazar

Dairugger Name: Commander Socrat Teles

About: Is one of the highest ranking officers in the Drule chain of command at the start of the series. While he original hates the Alliance and wants the Drule Empire to dominate the galaxy, he gradually realizes the war is only further endangering his people by wasting time and resources. When he starts reaching to the Alliance in hopes making peace, the Drule command turns against him, leading to his exile and eventual imprisonment. At the end of Vehicle Voltron he leads the rebels in overthrowing Emperor Zeppo.

Episodes to shine: Plays a major role in most episodes.

Name: Captain Twila

Dairugger name: Captain Emma

About: Captain Twila is one of the Drule’s top scientist and the only female Drule officer in the series. She is stubborn, prideful, loyal, and determined to prove her worth as a military officer by any means necessary. At one point she’s injured and taken aboard the S.S. Explorer for treatment. Commander Hawkins attempts convince her to join him and help bring peace between the Alliance and Drules, but Twila doesn’t buy it. She escapes and, more determined than ever to prove her worth, almost gets herself killed trying to destroy Voltron and the Explorer.

Episode to shine: “This World’s For the Birds”

After repeatedly trying to convince Hazar to led a rebellion against the Empire to no avail, she ends up joining the Underground Rebel Forces (URF) herself.

Episode to shine: “Color Me Invisible”

Name: Chancellor Mozak

Dairugger Name: Home Secretary Socrat Tes

About: Mozak is Hazar and Dorma’s loving father. Wise, humble, and trustworthy, he’s also one of the very few Supreme Council members not blinded by paranoia or a lust for power. Because of this he’s ignored and undermined by his follow council members. Late in the series Dorma convinces him to assist the URF by pleading their case to the council.

Episode to shine: “Hazar is Demoted”

Name: Marshall Keezor

He’s also Hazar’s best friend and remains loyal to him even after most of the Drule leadership turns against him.

Episode to shine: “Hazar on the Carpet”

55 for the wrapped snippet!

-✨🎃Runaway Anon🎃✨

This. Is. Antor's. Song. This is Antor's song. I found it late in the year so I'm surprised it's on the list but it's a testament to how obsessed I've been with it.

Please listen to it omg. It's my favourite fucking song for him. Honestly these are just his Emotions. He could sing this in the book word for word throughout the series. Plus this is his voice claim (one of them).

His kids he could be singing about could be Astrea, Will, and even Elayna. Cuz despite their origins, he loves them all the same. And he's watched them all grow up. Protected them. And all of that.

It makes me cry when I listen to it on repeat.

[bloodlessheirbyjacques]

can i get uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh antor breaking the fourth wall. for the lulz

-jade @keyboardandquill

lol you know I love writing challenges.

I'll help him out with breaking the fourth wall this time. This is something I bet he's been wanting to tell me for a while anyways. (Also, sorry, this got more serious than you probably wanted looool)

Pre-Book 1 | Antor, Young Will, & [redacted] | WC: 975 | Breaking the Fourth Wall |

.

"What are you doing?" Will's voice cracked as he watched Antor toss letters into a bonfire.

But, even he could see the red ink seeping through the paper. The edges of the parchments seared as they were rapidly engulfed by flames. The scent of burning paper, and white ashes ascended into the skies, slowly vanishing into the midday sun.

Antor shot his young son a glance as his fingers dripped a red puddle at his feet. He grunted, tossing another paper into the pit. "Praying."

"They do this where you're from?" Will innocently entwined his fingers behind his back, and playfully leaned toward him on his tippy toes. "To which God? What are you asking for?"

Antor laughed, not wanting to spare another glance at him. "I'm not asking for anything."

"Then what do you want?" Will took a step closer; the bonfire now separating him and his son.

Antor looked up at him; seeing the yellow shining in his eyes. A shadow looming behind his son; far larger than the bonfire ought to have made. But, it wasn't the shadow of a monster or a God. It was the shadow of a young girl.

"What's your name?" Antor asked, looking at her skirt twirl in the shadow behind his son.

"That's not important." Her voice now spoke through Will's lips. "What do you want?"

"Busy, are you?"

"Quite. Finishing your story is a lot harder than it ought to be." She took a hand, but not Will's hand. The hand of his shadow, and extended it towards the flame, guiding it, moving it, and twirling it as if it was attached to a string only she could touch, and guide.

"Why?" Antor sighed, "Why did you kill them?"

She dismissed the string, allowing the flame to sizzle naturally into place. "Her parents?"

"Yes."

"It had to be done. There would be no story if they lived, would there?"

"You needed to kill all of them? All of my friends? All of their children? You needed to make all of this devastation? War? Famine? Violence? What is the point of all this death? To torture me?"

"You're not that important. But I am sorry." Will turned around, and faced the sun. As if erupting from the confines of being a shadow, the dark echo of a young girl erupted from the grass. The shadow lifted another hand above the boy as if grasping the sun.

Quickly, the grasslands erupted in darkness. He looked up, noticing one of the moon covered the sun in a rapid wave of shadows. A bitter chill erupted through the air, even rising the hair on his skin as goosebumps erupted through him.

The shadow turned to Antor and smiled.

Under the guise of an eclipse, she was no longer a shadow, but a young woman. She stood in clothes he had never seen before, from a world he would never know. Still, she was walking as if conjoined with the body of his son. If she moved an arm, he would move an arm. If she smiled, he would smile.

So, they smiled up at him, and she spoke through his lips, "There can not be death without life, Rondar. And, there can not be joy without suffering. I know you know this. You're among the few in the world who knows first hand that you can not know the warmth of the sun without first suffering through a bone-chilling winter."

And with the wave of a hand, the moon slid from the sun; a light and warmth spread across the land once more.

Antor looked back at his son; the girl now returned to the appearance of a shadow.

"So. Did you call me to complain?"

Antor slowly rounded the fire and approached the unmoving child staring up at him. He unsheathed his sword and raised the tip to the shadow echoed beside Will.

A flame erupted from the tip of his sword and sprung toward them. Still, the two of them remained unmoving as the flames danced around their necks in a collar of thorns.

But, they smiled, glancing down at his arm.

A bright constellation of stars erupted from his metal arm. She grinned in approval as the stars sprung into sharp lances, all pointed toward the two of them. "Even more beautiful in person." she whispered.

"If you kill her, I will ravage this world you painstakingly created, and make my way to yours to do the same. I will slaughter everything you love if you even think about taking away anybody else."

She smiled, and so did Will. "You're the one with a sword to your son's throat."

Will smiled, pushing his neck closer to the tip of Antor's sword.

Antor faltered, slowly tried retracting his sword. But Will only took soft steps toward him, keeping the tip ever so softly on his throat.

"How cruel." The girl grinned, "Having a sword to the throat of your mute child."

Antor grunted and tossed his sword to the side. He raised a hand to his son, but quickly dropped his hand to his side.

"From now on," the girl spoke through Will, looking up at Antor, "You will be at fault for any death that comes your way. From now on, you have a choice in protecting him," she slowly raised a shadowed finger to the castle, "and her."

The shadow erupted into dust from behind Will, and the boy fell into his arms. Antor dropped to his knees, and pulled Will into a tight hug, making sure to check his neck for a pulse.

Upon feeling a steady heart beat, he looked over his shoulders. The shadows formed constellations over the fire - a fire already smouldering.

A voice echoed, laughing as it rose to the skies,

Train her better if you wish for her to survive.

8, 9, 15, and 24 for Antor!

(-@tragicbackstoryenjoyer)

Hey there! Thank you for this!

Antor my beloved ❤️✨

8. Is there something your character deeply regrets from their past?

Leaving Ezekiel and Illyera to be killed by Hadrien. This was so he could take their children to safety [baby Astrea included].

Not a day goes by that he does not wonder if he could have saved them if he stayed.

9. If asked, would your character say they were happy as a child?

Probably not. He had a lovely dog and lovely parents. But they died when Antor was a teenager. He watched a border skirmish kill them. It was why he joined the military in the first place, to avenge them and take revenge on the bordering nation that killed them.

Before they died, maybe he was happy. But it feels like too many life times ago for him to admit anything close to happiness.

15. Who does your character look up to and who do they despise?

Looks up to Ezekiel, Illyera, Edrei, and Astrea.

Venomously despises Hadrien.

24. What do they like about their appearance?

He doesn't really notice much about his appearance. He's not one to care about his scars, or his metal arm, or his other physical ailments.

But he does like one thing. His magical tattoos on his back. They're swords that come to life if he summons them. Ezekiel tattood them on him. Antor looks at them in a mirror sometimes to fondly remember Ezekiel. He prays he's able to make Ezekiel proud by raising his daughter [Astrea] to defend herself.

Thank you for these!!
