Delecta of the Kalpan Planets

Golden Age Origin
Delecta became the queen of the Kaplan System shortly after her father, King Deltar, died. Delecta's rule was challenged by Deltar's murderous half-sister, Ardora, who ruled the rogue planet of Myro. After Ardora brought the stranded Earthling, Lawrence Breck, to Kala for Delecta's corronation, Delecta began to develop feelings for the strange alien. She had her chief scientist, Telepan, help Larry to understand the Kaplan language. Later, Delecta accepted a duel to the death with Ardora in a spacefighter. During the battle, Ardora was killed, and Delecta held a contest to elect the next governor of the planet Myro. The post was eventually given to Larry, who was considered a hero throughout the Kaplan System.



Delecta was very courageous and dealt with many of her planets problems personally, regardless of the danger. She was apparently a very skilled fighter pilot.
