## Biography

Adora was raised in the Horde by Shadow Weaver, growing up with Catra. However, during the first episodes, she saw the atrocities the Horde had committed and defected. Simultaneously, she discovered that she was meant to become the latest She-Ra and began to bear the Sword of Protection.

She helped the Rebellion against the Horde throughout the series, quickly becoming one of their most valuable fighters and leaders.

During Season 4, Adora began to realise the damaging history and legacy of the Sword, and of She-Ra as the First Ones saw her, and at the end of that season she destroyed the sword.

However, some way through season 5, Adora realised that She-Ra was not about the sword, She-Ra was about her own inherent magic. She began to be able to transform again, this time on her own terms.

Adora, alongside Catra and the Rebellion, saved the galaxy from arch-enemy Horde Prime, surviving the destructive magic he unleashed after Catra confessed her love for her.

At the end of the series, Adora plans a trip to restore magic to the galaxy alongside her best friends, Bow and Glimmer, and her girlfriend, Catra.

## Appearance

Adora is white and has blonde hair, which she usually wears in a ponytail, and blue eyes. She usually wears a Horde shirt with a red jacket, gray leggings and red boots. She's normally dressed in fairly gender-neutral battle gear, but when she is allowed more freedom to choose her clothing her gender expression is more femme (e.g. in her wish, as depicted in the last episode of Season 5).

In her She-Ra form she's about 8 feet tall, and her hair becomes a lighter blonde, whilst her eyes glow blue. She's also more muscular as She-Ra.

In her Season 1-4 She-Ra form she wears a tunic and a kind of tiara with her hair down. In her Season 5 She-Ra form her hair is in a ponytail and her outfit allows more freedom of movement. The tiara is also replaced with a more practical armoured mask, and her outfit is representative of her and her loved ones.

## Personality

Adora cares deeply about her friends and loved ones and will do almost anything to protect them. She has a strong sense of what's right and is usually very loyal to those she loves. She can't stop herself from caring about people, even when they've hurt her, as evidenced by her consistent caring for Catra and her grief at Shadow Weaver's death. She's trusting, which leaves her open to manipulation but also strengthens many of her friendships.

She is also intelligent, proving many times she knows how to think strategically, but is often very reckless. She messes up fairly often, but always does her best to fix what she's done. Adora is naturally a forgiving person, as shown by the speed with which she forgives many of the ex-Horde soldiers/allies who join her side.

## Sexuality

Adora is implied to be a lesbian, entering into a romantic relationship with Catra at the end of the series, and seeming to show consistent admiration for both Catra and various other female characters in a way that she never does towards the male characters in the series.

## Relationships

### Catra

Catra and Adora were childhood best friends. During most of season 1 and throughout 2, 3, and 4 they were enemies, both leading opposite sides of the war. However, they both still cared about each other, which was made obvious through various things that they said and did throughout.

During season 5, Catra saved Glimmer, one of Adora's best friends, at the risk of her own life, and told Adora she was sorry for everything she had done. Adora went back to rescue Catra and they began to regain their former relationship.

During the last episode, Catra believed Adora to be dying, and told her that she had always loved her, and asked her to 'just this once, stay'. Her confession pulled Adora back from the edge of giving up and losing everything. Adora replied that she loved her too. They kissed and were able, with their love, to absorb the energy of the Heart of Etheria and save the galaxy from their arch-enemy Horde Prime. The two are now in a romantic relationship.

### Huntara

Adora appears to be attracted to Huntara when she meets her, looking at her with sparkling eyes and being very quick to want to enlist her as an ally, despite Bow and Glimmer's misgivings about her. This section is in need of major improvement. Please help improve this article by editing it.
