Emperor Zarkon (Voltron: Legendary Defender)

Emperor Zarkon is a character from the Voltron: Legendary Defender series.
== Charactah Account ==
The ruler of the Galra Empire, Zarkon is a malevolent alien who has survived for over 10,000 years by absorbing Quintessence, which makes him incredibly powerful.
Ruthless and without regard for life, Zarkon leads his people in a quest to extinguish all other living things and eliminates those of his own command who fail to meet his standard of strength.
Voltron is the only force in the universe that Zarkon fears — as it is the only thing with any hope of stopping him — and he is thus relentless in his efforts to claim or destroy the robotic Lions.

* The name of Zarkon’s home planet, Daibazaal, is an homage to the character’s original name in Golion.
