Species/Tribes

    Akiridions 

A race of energy beings who are the inhabitants of Akiridion-5.


  • Batman Can Breathe in Space: Despite Akiridion-5 being filled with oxygen, as revealed in "Moonlight Run", Akiridions are able to breathe without the need of oxygen.
  • Blue Is Heroic: All Akiridions are blue, Krel is also this in his human form which sports a blue tee-shirt.
  • Light 'em Up: This trope applies to the Akiridions in general. They are beings of light whose corporeal bodies are formed by their cores. And the bulk of their gear is based on hard-light constructs.

The Resistance

    Lieutenant Zadra 

Zadra

Appearances: 3Below

Voiced by: Hayley Atwell

Commander Vex's second in command. She stayed behind in order to give the royals a chance to escape.


  • Action Girl
  • All Women Love Shoes: Accidentally orders a pair of red boots, upon seeing them in person, it's love at first sight and she never takes them off despite not actually having feet.
  • Ascended Extra: Her scenes are largely regulated to the political situation on Akiridion-5 but joins the main party on Earth at the end of season 1, stranded like the rest of them.
  • Broken Pedestal: Her faith in Vex shatters when she discovers that he was the traitor who lowered the planet's shields.
  • But Now I Must Go: She returns to Akiridion-5 alongside Aja and Vex.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: She attempts one in the pilot, but the villains manage to capture her alive.
  • Honor Before Reason: Subverted. She was prepared to die fighting off Morando's men to save the children. Later, she makes no bare bones of her hatred for Morando as he asks her to join him and that is not a request. Zadra, however, is scared that the kids are in danger and decides the best way to save them is to find out what Morando knows and sabotage him.
  • Iconic Outfit: Season 2 has this with the red boots she bought.
  • Join or Die: Morando tells her to do this — become his lieutenant, or he will torture her to death until she agrees. Her doctor tries to smuggle her out as thanks for Aja saving her child, but Zadra realizes that pretending to work for Morando is the best way to rescue the kids and stop him. She instead agrees to work for the Resistance as a deep-cover mole.
  • Mama Bear: Part of the reason she agrees to be a mole is to try and find Aja and Krel to keep them safe and sabotage Morando.
  • The Mole: She agrees to work for Morando as the new commander of the Taylon Phalanx, but only so she can gather intel on the whereabouts of Aja and Krel, as well as finding out who the traitor that lowered the shields is. She wears the Resistance ring as a Trust Password.
  • Red Herring: It's implied at first that she is the mole when Zadra stays behind to fight off Morando's men. It turns out her loyalty to the royals has never been in doubt and she pretends to be a mole to save the kids.
  • Refuge in Audacity: Zadra takes advantage of this. Morando believes that due to her willingness to die for the royals that he would be able to break her will into agreeing to serve him. He underestimates that she would pretend to agree and stand by his side so as to sabotage his quest.
  • Sinister Scythe: A good person, but her main weapon is a double-ended scythe.
  • Spin to Deflect Stuff: She can spin her weapon to deflect attacks, be they physical or energy.
  • Sweet Tooth: She's a battle-hardened warrior with years of experience, but none of that matters in the presence of Nougat Nummies.
    Zadra: [Currently stuck in a trap set by Toby] None of my battlefield training had prepared me for the temptations of these delicious confections. [Continues gorging herself on the Nougat Nummies used for bait]
  • Sword Beam: Her scythe can fire projectiles when swung.
  • Undying Loyalty: An utmost devout ward of the Royal Family.

    Izita 

Izita

Appearances: 3Below

Voiced by: Jennifer Hale

A member of the rebellion. Her daughter was saved by Aja during Morando's attack.


  • Heroic Bystander: She's the doctor who treated a captive Zadra and offers to smuggle her out to get her to the Resistance. When Zadra says she needs to sabotage Morando from the inside out, Izita gives her an insignia ring that serves as a Trust Password so the Resistance knows what Zadra is doing.
  • I Owe You My Life: She stays loyal to the royals thanks to Aja saving her daughter from collapsing rubble during Morando's attack.

    Loth Saborian

Appearances: 3Below

Voiced by: Chris Obi

Others

    Buster 

Buster

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/buster_profile_picture.png

Appearances: 3Below

A large, insect-like alien imprisoned at Area 49-B alongside Stuart until he (Stuart) escaped.


  • Fluffy the Terrible: Of all the names this alien could have, "Buster" is the last one anyone would think he would be called.
  • Insectoid Aliens: He is a giant alien with a body very reminiscent of an upscaled insect.

    Seklos & Gaylen 

Seklos & Gaylen

Two ancient god-like beings. Gaylen was the creator of Akiridion-5, but as he grew more powerful he also grew fearsome, and Seklos used her own core to stop him.


  • Greater-Scope Paragon: Seklos took Gaylen's place as this when he became driven insane by power. Gaylen originally served as this since he was the creator of Akiridion-5.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Gaylen became this when he was driven insane by power and tried to destroy the universe.
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Seklos sacrificed her own core in order to render Gaylen inert before he could destroy the universe.
  • The Maker: Gaylen is said to have created Akiridion-5 by crushing the stars and using the stardust to create it. When all of the power went to Gaylen's head, he nearly did the same to the entire universe before Seklos stepped in to stop him.
  • Posthumous Character: Both are dead by the time of the series, but they still have a lasting impact as Morando merged with Gaylen's Core and gained powers on a cosmic scale, so Aja and Krel needed to use Seklos' Cannon to destroy him.
