Ikra was one of Aku's aliases which he chose in order to travel closely with Jack in Episode VI: Jack and the Warrior Woman. She was voiced by Jennifer Martin.

Appearance

Ikra is marked by the same green-black color coding that marks Aku’s alternate forms. Her appearance is a result of Aku’s shape shifting into a young woman with green skin, black hair and a black dress.

Personality

Ikra is portrayed as being soft-spoken, cool and elegant. She is also a deft liar and was able to completely fool Jack into believing the story about her father. During her time spent with Jack, she appeared to enjoy his company and partook in many adventures with him, even saving him from drowning in quicksand instead of allowing him to die. After coming close to the Desert Oasis Jewel, Ikra’s failure to pass the Jewel's test of purity, use of shape shifting and sudden maniacal laughter revealed to Jack her true nature as one of Aku’s forms.

Biography

Ikra told Jack that her father, like Jack's, had fought with Aku and having lost been forced to spend eternity trapped in a ring of fire and that she was on a quest to find a magical jewel in the desert which was powerful enough to free her father.
