Forget “Monsters and Mana”, the paladins of Voltron need to graduate to “Reality of Darkness.”
Give me Shadow Court Merla.
Bring Lotor back as a Wraith, bound to haunt Allura forever as she becomes his Fetter, preventing him from moving on to the next level of existence.
Show me Honerva’s corruption of Oriande for the Wyrm. May it awaken an army of Nephandi.
Show me Romelle, drained of glamour by the cold banality of life outside The Colony, desperately ravaging a creative human for the sake of existing another dark day.
Let Sendak be diabolized by Throk when he lets his guard down.
Let Keith become lost in a frenzy, with the temptation of the Black Spiral Dancers as his only respite. Bonus: Krolia is secretly a BSD.
Give me Pidge and Hunk becoming unwitting agents of the Weaver, as their dedication to technology and science hardens the Consensus around them so that even the most subtle aspects of Allura’s magic unleash a Paradox Storm consuming them all in madness.
Give me a Ghouled Lance, feening for vitae. He got too close to that cute Lasombra living next door upon his return to Earth.
Show me a tired Coran, willpower expended, unable to resist the madness that comes from being too close to powerful fae.
Give me Acxa leading her own Sabbat pack in search of useful Vinculums.
“Reality of Darkness” is where it’s at.
And now I want to stat out every Galra (including Narti, Zarkon, and Lotor) that’s died as Wraiths. That would be hilarious.
