Voltron AU

About the AU
Spawning from fanart, this AU places the Big Four, and other such characters in the fandom, as characters from Voltron: Legendary Defender. While the AU forces on the DreamWorks/Netflix version the most, the earlier versions of the Voltron series can still be included.

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III
Hiccup can be portrayed as Pidge, cause of him being an expert with machines. He could also be Shiro cause of his prosthetic leg, it could also mean that Toothless can serve as the Black Lion.

Jack Frost
Jack can be portrayed as Lance, due to his sly, cunning nature. There is also the fact that the powers of the Blue Lion are very similar to his own.

Merida DunBroch
Merida can be portrayed as a female Keith cause of her fiery temper. While being a princess that is ready to take part in a fight, could even have her as Allura.

Rapunzel Corona
Rapunzel can be portrayed as a female Hunk, because of her kind and loving nature and with one of her hobbies being cooking. Rapunzel being a princess can also cast her as Allura, with Cassandra or her father's advisor Nigel as Coran.

Big Hero 6
This team of heroes are the characters who are most commonly used in the AU, mostly due to the similairies between the two franchises (teenage heroes in colored suits, the presence of futuristic technology, etc). Though the fans' interpretations may vary, the characters are portrayed as follows: Tadashi is often portrayed as Shiro, Hiro is commonly cast as Pidge for his skills in biotics, as well as being portrayed as Keith (for the style of Keith and Hiro's dark hair) and Shiro (for being the leader of Big Hero 6), GoGo as Keith, Wasabi as Hunk, Fred as Lance or a male Allura for fun, and Honey Lemon as Allura (Baymax is often portrayed as Voltron himself).

Heathcliff serves as the Coran to the team, as he works for the family of one of the team members and does what he can to help them out; as he had assisted them in the testing of their gear and picking them up from Akuma Island in a helicopter. While Hiro's bot fighter bot, Megabot can be placed as the Rover of the team, as both of their screentime was short lived.

Queen Elsa
Elsa can very possibly be portrayed as Allura. Due to her leadership skills, for being the Queen of Arendelle.

Princess Anna
Anna could be portrayed as a female version of Coran, for her being silly and funny with a determined nature. While Anna being a princess can also portray her as Allura.

The Guardians
The Guardians can serve the five (counting MiM) former Paladins that piloted Voltron, before the task was passed onto five other warriors that would continue the task of keeping the universe safe. The Moon Clipper can serve as the Castle of Lions, as it is both a starship and a home.

Dragon Riders
The members of the Berk Dragon Training Academy can be placed as the Paladins of Voltron, as they each ride a different colored steed, that are sometimes featured as cats for modern related crossovers and AUs. Since Hiccup is the leader of the Dragon Riders and rides a black coated steed, he can be portrayed as Shiro, while Hiccup's expertise of machines has fans place him as Pidge. Astrid being the second in-command of the riders can portray her as a female Keith, while Stormfly's blue colored scales can also cast her as Lance. Fishlegs' body form and his caring heart can place him as Hunk. Snotlout's pride and caring about his looks portrays him as Lance, while the red color of Hookfang's scales and looking out for himself can also cast him as Keith. Because of Barf and Belchs' green colored scales, fans cast one or both of the Thorston twins as Pidge, while not caring too much about their actions and not being very bright about something's can also place them as Lance.

With the riders as the Paladins then their dragons, Toothless, Stormfly, Meatlug, Hookfang and Barf & Belch, can be featured as the Lions that form Voltron.
