Altean Archer and her possible connections.
Since we haven’t seen our Archer friend showing up in Season 5, I’m assuming that she’s probably a season 6 character.
Which brings me to a point that I keep seeing hotly debated over. A number of people keep pointing to the fact that the Archer could be Allura due to the fact that she has the same curving hair style as the princess.
But there is one thing that everyone keeps forgetting about in regard to this archer. Her hair cut and hair line doesn’t match up to Allura’s or her mother’s, or even her father’s.
As you can see the V shaped widows peak doesn’t exist for Allura or her mom or her dad.
But I can hear some saying the curved locks that frame her face are the same, and to that I would say you’re right…but I’d also like to point out there’s someone else who’s hair line and shape the style matches.
Now I hear you all going, are you going to suggest that this girl is related to Coran.
Well on the one hand, that is a possibility, as we don’t know a lot about her. But if she is related to Coran, she would have to be a distant relation.
However I’m not seeing her as being related to him. Rather I do see there being a different sort of connection between him, the Queen, Allura, and this Archer.
All four characters are the only ones that have the hair locks on the sides in regard to Altean people.
Even in the past Coran and the Queen were the only two shown to have those side things.
And they’re the only two standing side by side with them at the meeting of the first paladins.
Which brings me to my point. The Archer’s hair cut…is very much like a younger version of Coran’s circa this meeting.
As you can see, Coran wore the same dongle like bang on his head. A wavy ponytail, and he has similar side aspects going on with the hair that she does.
Hell I would go as far as to say they’re matching, and I think there’s a reason for this.
If we take what Allura said in season four to be fact, that Altean’s colonized worlds, it’s not that hard to buy that one could have been Pollux. If Coran and the Queen were actually of Polluxian decent, rather then Altean, then it could explain why their hair and the hair of Allura and the Archer are so very different then other Alteans, like Alfor and Honerva.
I mean just look at the Altean’s in the picture at the party above, every last one either has the hair hanging down ala Honerva’s style, or short at the sides.
See the length there and of the other Alteans we’ve seen.
Straight and short. No one else save Allura, Coran and the Queen have that curving, except for the new girl.
Which brings me to the point that the likely hood of this girl just being Allura in a cosplay outfit seems a bit lacking. My main contention is that, if she is being a character in a game, like say the mystic one that Lance, Pidge and Matt keep playing, then she would either be the mage, which seems the most likely or be using a bo staff as she has in the past, or her whip.
Also, what’s important here is that the box of Killbot Phantasm I doesn’t have archer indicated at all on the cover.
As you can see. Twin fighters, a warrior that’s kind of monk like, a red haired swordsman, a blue hair mage, and a purple wearing prince, I think. No archer to be seen. So that rules them out of going into the game, as it would be more obvious with the character design.
We have a cleric in the female character, a swords man and a, I guess grappler or something in the last guy.
Our archer’s place is a bit different. We have two figures below, unless there’s a third we don’t see. And it’s clear that this was some sort of arena, and not just a random dungeon. Clearly there was a battle there and the creature did cut into the floor, or knock something over against the one pillar.
Then there’s the fact that the area does slightly resemble a place from Pollux in the original DotU.
That’s the Polluxian castle. As you can see it’s very different a less Techy than the Altean counter part.
As you can see with the older series the Tech levels are different in regard to design. And we’ve already seen nods in design to the old DotU in recent seasons.
I don’t have the picture at the moment but the location for the battle of the Kral Zara seems to have been based around the Robeast Battle Arena that Lotor was using in DoTU.
If these are all giving hints of similar situations here for the main original series, then there’s a few things to think about here as well.
Firstly, given the time frame of the story, and the death of Zarkon, this would have been roughly about the mid way point in the series and thus, around the time that Romelle did make her appererence in the show.
If we go on the idea that the Polluxian’s are the ones that wear their hair the way we see Allura wear her’s then we can also take a wild guess that this is a common look for those coming from Pollux to wear that style and show identification. Given that Coran was hinted at not being good with magic, and that clearly the archer is using “primitive tech” one can assume that she also may not be that great with magic.
If you notice her cheeks don’t glow. So it very well may be that those from Pollux may not have been big on the magic end of things and may have survived to now because of the fact that they’re not so well known due to limited powers and skills. Thus the Galra having little to no interest in them at the moment.
Also, what’s interesting…the guy in the background that many think is Alfor…
It’s not easy to see, Since he is in black, but I think he might be missing an arm. This could very well be Shiro who is either trying to escape, or was thrown down here for a reason.
This would tie into the Pollux story line, and would make sense to act as an in between chapter. Given that you could have the Polluxian Prince Avok want to either make a deal with Lotor, or maybe Haggar for reasons.
