scalpelofmarmoraAn exact history for Ulaz is impossible. However, a basis for his history is possible with information from what is known about the Galra and the Blade of Marmora.
Ulaz lived under the thumb of Zarkon’s reign and he became disillusioned at an early age with the Galra Empire. While the exact method is unknown, he was recruited to the Blade of Marmora, where he activated and received his luxite blade and from there, training in fighting and medical knowledge. He was implanted into the Galra military system, where he worked for Galra as a medical technician.
At some point, he - like others in the Galra military - took notice of the prisoner Shiro, called Champion by other Galra prisoners. He had enough access to the prisoners and had been watching enough that he knew things about Shiro's character. Even knowing this much could imply that at least part of his job was working with Haggar and the druids given that Haggar took credit for what had been done to Shiro.
News of the Blue Lion being found on Earth reached the Galra fleet. Ulaz, likely tracking vital information into the cruiser he was stationed on, found out about this. In a clearly planned opportunity, Ulaz knocked out the Galra assigned to assist him and destroyed the drones when Shiro was brought into one of the experimentation rooms. Following this, he implanted the location of the Communications Base Thaldycon into Shiro's arm and released him, telling him that the Blue Lion had been found on Earth and that his planet was in danger. When Shiro asked why he was doing it, Ulaz replied "You give hope."
Then he fled, with the explosives that he had rigged prior to entering the experimentation room going off, covering both his and Shiro's escape.
Eventually Shiro's memory of this event came back and he insisted the team go to the Thaldycon system. There they found a system filled with xanthorium clusters - giant crystals that, when disturbed, explode. The others wanted to leave, but Shiro insisted on staying.
Their wait in the Thaldycon system was short as Coran suddenly announced there was an intruder in the castle. The paladins rush to meet him, Lance finding him first. The intruder dodged Lance's gun fire, leaping to avoid it, leading Coran - who was watching the events unfold via camera - to comment of the intruder, "He's faster than an angry klanmüirl! But he can jump like a sprightly globinheffer!" The intruder encountered Pidge second, leaping over her and attempting to continue his run through the castle until she fired her Gatling hook at him. He caught it then began to drag Pidge along with him. He went passed Hunk and encountered Keith, dodging him, knocking his sword from his hand, throwing Pidge at him, and throwing him before Shiro arrived. The intruder drew his luxite sword, aiming it at Shiro while Shiro had his activated hand aimed at the intruder.
This was when the intruder stepped back, removing his hood and mask, revealing himself to be Ulaz. Shackled at Allura's insistence, Ulaz told them about the outpost, hidden in a pocket of space time directly in front of the xanthorium clusters. Flying straight for the xanthorium cluster, the castle entered the space time pocket, revealing the Communications Base Thaldycon. Using the Red Lion, Shiro, Hunk, Pidge and Keith went with Ulaz to the outpost. Ulaz explained the reason why the Blade of Marmora – a Galra based resistance movement - was against Zarkon, "We thought expanding the Galra Empire would bring stability. We learned too late, a tyrant doesn't seek stability, only power."
Not long after arriving on the base, the Robeast formerly known as Prorok arrived. Initially they tried to remain hidden in the space pocket, but the Robeast began firing at them through the space pocket, necessitating Voltron to attack it and eventually revealing the Castle and the Communications Base. Ulaz took off in a shuttle craft, appearing to abandon the battle field. However, he returned when Voltron was in dire straits about to be sucked into the Robeats, flying his shuttle craft right into the mouth of the Robeast. From inside, he opened another space pocket, turning the Robeast inside out, destroying it and killing himself.
