Catra is a fictional character in the toyline, and animated television series, She-Ra: Princess of Power (1985–86), which is part of the Masters of the Universe franchise.[3][4] In the 2018 reboot, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Catra is one of the central antagonists for the first four seasons before becoming an ally to the heroes in its final season.
In both animated series, Catra is a Force-Captain of Hordak's Evil Horde, a position previously held by Adora before she defected in the 2018 reboot.[4] In the first series, Catra displays minor sorcery abilities, possessing a magical mask, which when slid over her face gives the ability to transform into a purple panther-like beast, also showing telepathic control over all cats;[5] in the second series she has cat-like features of her own, including a tail, large furry ears, a mane, and claws.
In the toyline, she is the principal villain.[6] However, the 2018 series portrays her as a far more complex figure, serving as an antagonist before ultimately redeeming herself and becoming Adora's girlfriend.
