Prince Valara

Valara is the prince of the kingdom of Atlantis. Resurfacing from ancient legend, Atlantis now exists as an island, inhabited by a strange race of blue-skinned fish people. Dragaunus came to Atlantis to steal their cache of bulerium crystals. At that time, the prince was a resident of the dungeon, banished there by a power-hungry adviser who had overpowered the prince in a secret coup, and stolen a magical staff which was the source of his power. Without it, the prince was feeble and weak. He did, however, keep his accent, which makes him sound strangely like Elvis Presley.

Wildwing found the prince when he was imprisioned in this same dungeon. He managed to free them both, and return Valara's staff and powers to him. In true royal fashion, the prince gave Wildwing some advice before the team departed to pursue a fleeing Dragaunus: "You can do it, feathered friend, no matter what it takes."
