Keith: You're my mom? How? How did you get to Earth? How...how did you meet my dad? How...how are you so sure?
Krolia: I'm sure. This isn't how I hoped to meet you again, and this isn't how I wanted to tell you but it's the truth.
~ Krolia confirming to be Keith's mother.
Keith: I finally understand why you left. You put the mission above all else.
Krolia: That's not true. I left to protect the person I most love. You.
~ Krolia to her son, Keith.

Krolia is a member of the Blade of Marmora and the mother of Keith in Voltron: Legendary Defender. She worked as a spy for the Blade of Marmora.

She was voiced by Ana Gasteyer.

History[]

Krolia is known to be the member of the Blade of Marmora when she crash-landed on Earth and she was found by a human, who is Keith's father. She and the human eventually fell in love and had a son named Keith when they discovered a Blue Lion and protect the lion from the Galra.

During an attack by the Garlas, Krolia was able to stop their attempt to retrieve the Blue Lion while the human undermined enemy ships. Unfortunately, Keith's father was injured in the incident, prompting Krolia to decide to return to the Blade of Marmora to protect her lover and son. Before leaving, she kissed a baby Keith on the cheek and left her Garla blade behind so that Keith could use it someday.

In Bloodlines, Kolivan sends Keith to evacuate Krolia from an infiltration mission at Ranveig's base while destroying the super-weapon in the center of the base even as Commanders Trugg and Ladnok go to war. to gain control. Later in the base, Krolia encounters an infiltrated Keith after a brief standoff between them. She tells him he's late and that they don't have much time. Installed at the checkpoint, Krolia and Keith are ambushed by Trugg and his androids. The duo attack and Krolia is able to skillfully destroy the androids using his ancient Garla blade until Trugg subdues Keith and orders Krolia to surrender or die. Kroila offers to give Trugg the superweapon in exchange for a ship. On board the ship, Keith berates Krolia for compromising the mission but Krolia just tells him to shut up and trust her. After giving Trugg the access codes, Krolia and Keith manage to evacuate the base alive despite Trugg's failed attempt to wipe them out in mid-flight. Unfortunately for Trugg, the superweapon turns out to be a dangerous creature that doesn't take long to slaughter Trugg and his troops, as Krolia had planned. Safe in space, Krolia returns the blade to Keith who questions her about how she could know how it worked. Krolia replies that the blade was once hers before she gave it to Keith's father, letting Keith figure out that Krolia is his mother.

In Razor's Edge, a Keith still reeling from Krolia's revelation asks his mother how she can be so sure. Krolia simply replies that she is sure of their connection before insisting on postponing the explanations until they must now find a rare quintessence located in the Quantum Abyss. Along the way, they are attacked by arachnid creatures that destroy their ship, forcing them to advance from meteorite to meteorite until they are struck by a time wave caused by the black stars. Keith then reviews the moment when Krolia and her father named him Keith before returning to the present. As they continue to advance, more waves come crashing into them, showing other visions of the times Krolia spent on earth protecting the Blue Lion until the Garla Empire came to the forefront attacks, forcing Krolia to leave to protect her son and her lover. Keith interprets this as Krolia putting the mission above all else but Krolia denies this claim, stating that she only left to protect the person she loves most, her own son. The duo subsequently cling to giant semi-whale creatures that can roam freely among the debris. Arrived on the back of one of them and enjoying an atmosphere created by the creature itself, Krolia and Keith save a space wolf puppy from a crustacean creature before settling in and waiting for the end of the trip. During their stay, Krolia sadly learns of the death of her lover during Keith's childhood. After two years, Krolia, Keith and the now adult wolf leave the whale and tumble into an outpost housing an entire ecosystem. It was not long before they came across an Altean.

In The Colony, After Romelle the Altean is told Keith and Krolia about all the horrible things Lotor has done to the Alteans, they travel to a moon base with an old Altean transport where they discover with horror thousands of spirited Alteans. to be emptied of their quintessence. The quartet then goes to the Voltron base where they are greeted by Keith's friends. Krolia introduces herself to Shiro and thanks him for helping make Keith the man he is today. Keith then reveals that Krolia is his mother before Romelle tells the truth about Lotor. The group is quick to confront Lotor but a sudden attack on the Galra Empire and Honerva's activation of Shiro's mind control allows the evil prince to escape.

In The Ruins, During a virtual exercise, the group discovers a frequency that Krolia identifies as an elder of communication used by the Blade of Marmora and known mainly by the senior members meaning that it possibly comes from Kolivan. They follow the distress signal to the ruins of a city on an asteroid where they then meet a survivor named Macidus, the person who sent the signal. In Macidus' lair, Krolia discovers dozens of Galra Blades that once belonged to Blade members that she herself trained. Kolivan's blade glows as a sign that he is still alive, unfortunately Macidus turns out to be a Haggar Druid that Keith has fought before. A long fight ensues before ending when Keith finally kills Macidus. The group subsequently finds a weakened Kolivan who intends to find the last members of the Blade of Marmora who did not fall into the trap of Macidus. Choosing to join her old friend in this quest, Krolia tells Keith that she has to leave him a second time but Keith retorts that it's not goodbye and gives her Galra blade back which she can return when they will meet again. Mother and son exchange one last emotional hug before they leave each other.

In Lions' Pride, Part 2, Krolia and Kolivan visit Keith in the hospital and later she and her son visit Keith's father's grave.

In The End is the Beginning, Krolia is present on Daibazaal alongside Kolivan, Keith and Cosmos as her son announces the end of the empire to all the Galra people so that they can finally return to form their peaceful glory before Zarkon's reign.

Abilities[]

As a spy for the Blade of Marmora, Krolia was a profoundly skilled actress, able to lie to the Empire about the location of the Blue Lion, preventing their discovery of it for the better part of twenty years. She is also a good melee and stab fighter as well as an accurate shooter.
