Catra

Catra is a main antagonist in the animated series She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, a reboot of the 1980s series. First showing up as Adora's best friend in the Horde, when Adora defects, she doesn't, and takes it very personally. The result is a gradual downward spiral lasting four seasons until she hits rock bottom at the end of Season 4, then Season 5 finally gives her a redemption arc, she becomes one of the good guys, and gets together with Adora. She's also a very good example of what a sexywoman is - to quote the sexywomanpedia, "If you aren’t familiar with who Vriska is/was, think of her as the quintessential example."

Basic Information
It's not known how exactly she was found and brought into the Horde, but what is known is that she was Adora's childhood friend, with both being effectively being raised under the careful watch of their superior, Shadow Weaver. And Shadow Weaver's parenting techniques...leave a lot to be desired, to say the least. Things are pretty normal up until Adora is promoted to Force Captain, and they go out into the Whispering Woods to celebrate, upon which Adora receives Chosen One Visions and later asks Catra to cover for her so she can sneak out again. And while Adora learns that The Horde Sucks, Actually, Catra is sent in to go get her back, and in the process attacks a small town, which Adora sees. Upon informing Catra of her recent discovery, to which Catra responds with "yeah?? is that supposed to be new information to me or", Adora decides to stick with the good guys, and Catra, as mentioned earlier, takes that really personally. Cue the rest of She-Ra.

Anthro
She's a cat person. Obviously.

Monster Features
She has claws. These are often her weapon of choice in fights.

Angst
Hooooooo boy. Angst over her abusive relationship with a mother figure, angst over her friend leaving her for people she just met that day, angst over her friend possibly not returning her not-actually-platonic feelings - Catra has angst for days, and it only gets worse as time goes on.

Dominating
Knows exactly how to press Adora's buttons and takes full advantage of that when they're on opposite sides. It really says something that she's able to fight evenly with She-Ra when the latter is an eight-foot tall ridiculously strong sword lady and all Catra has going for her is smarts and Cat.

Villain
Yes. Definitely. At least for the first four seasons. The season 3 finale is her putting the universe at risk out of pure spite.

Vriska Archetype
Was this throughout the show's run thanks to her actions against Adora and her friends, and her redemption arc didn't help this any because there's a lot of debate over whether she actually faced proper consequences for her crimes from the first four seasons.

Eye Imagery
Normally has mismatched eyes. When she was chipped by Horde Prime, her eyed glowed green.

Quotable Catchphrase(s)
"Hey, Adora."

"Don't you get it? I love you! I always have!"

Power of Love
Canonical friends to enemies to lovers arc, culminating in Season 5.

Fuck The Joker
Catra and Adora were getting shipped all the way back when there was only Season 1; they were very much the main ship throughout the fandom's history and getting canon confirmation only helped that.

WLW / Questionable LGBT Rep
Canonically in a WLW relationship with Adora; see Vriska Archetype for why it's considered questionable.

Suitguy
Wears a nice suit in the Princess Prom episode from season 1, which was a big part in her early rise to sexywomandom.

Eldritch
Remember the brief mention of "put the universe at risk" from earlier? Yeah during the Season 3 finale she gets a dip into the Void and...yeah. Yeah.

Purple
Applies to the Void Dip form.

Glowing Neon
Applies to Void Dip and Horde Prime forms.
