Voltaire is a recurring character of the 2021 cartoon show who first appeared in Season 3.
Character[]
He is a young dragon who lives in a cave. Most of the Smurfs are scared of him, afraid of his "bark" and his ice-cold breath that can freeze you solid. One Smurf, however, Lily, thinks he is the sweetest beast in the land.
Depending on the episode, Voltaire can be good or bad, which may be why the Smurfs fear him often. He plays a rather antagonistic role in "The Great Smurfs Games" and freezes Clumsy for trespassing in his cave.
