The Space Mice are recurring characters in the DreamWorks•Netflix's series, Voltron: Legendary Defender. They are a quartet of Altean mice who are friends of Princess Allura and the Defenders of the Universe.
Role in the series[]
The Space Mice were inside Allura's cryo-pod with her during the 10,000 years she spent in stasis, and she discovered them soon after awakening and was comforted to know that she and Coran were not the last inhabitants of Altea left. Subsequently, she learned that the time she and the mice had spent in the pod together had given them a mental link that allowed them to understand each other, which proved invaluable as the mice were able to crawl into spaces too large for her and Coran to enter in order to make repairs to the Castle of Lions. They demonstrated enough intelligence to understand other beings as well, or else strong powers of observation, as they learned that Pidge was a girl posing as a boy and later conveyed this to Allura. They would later assist Pidge in lowering the castle defenses after Sendak took over, with Allura sending them a telepathic message.
When the castle became trapped in a wormhole loop, it caused the Space Mice to mutate into a variety of different alien animals each time they restarted the loop, similar to how Coran continued to grow younger and younger; they all returned to normal after Pidge sent a signal that allowed Allura to bring the ship out of the wormhole. Platt, another of the mice, later took something of Coran's, prompting the Altean to search for him. The mice would later keep Allura company while the others were away on various missions, performing a circus act, braiding her hair, and playing charades.
