AVION'S WINGED AMBASSADOR
Stratos (200x)
Stratos (200x) is Avion's winged ambassador among the Heroic Warriors, redrawn for a series that treats his kingdom's politics as a running dispute. In "Trust" a crash landing strands him with Trap Jaw and forces the two into an alliance neither wants.
Stratos (200x) is Avion's winged ambassador among the Heroic Warriors in the 2002 He-Man series, carrying a running political dispute between Avion and the Andreenids that the series returns to more than once. His closest thing to a solo spotlight is "Trust," where a crash landing strands him with Trap Jaw and forces both of them into an uneasy alliance. Scott McNeil voices him.
AVION'S WINGED AMBASSADOR
Avion's ambassador, and Avion's politics
The 2002 series is a separate version of He-Man's world, outside the classic canon this encyclopedia follows, and its Stratos is drawn accordingly. It keeps him as Avion's ambassador among the Heroic Warriors and gives his kingdom real political weight. A long-running trade dispute between Avion and the Andreenids runs underneath "The Courage of Adam" and "Sky War" both, and Stratos is the one carrying that politics around.
The Eye of Zarkane comes back for him, too. In "The Courage of Adam" it is where Adam, escorting Stratos home, is ambushed and carried off to Snake Mountain. In "The Council of Evil Part 1" Skeletor's new Council of Evil picks the Masters off one by one, and Stratos is caught in a web at the same place.

HIS CLOSEST THING TO A SOLO SPOTLIGHT
An alliance neither one wants, in "Trust"
Stratos flies off alone to find Eternium, a legendary metal said to lie in the frozen mountains, and Skeletor sends Trap Jaw after him. Their fight leaves both of them injured and trapped together in the ice caves, forced into a truce that Trap Jaw keeps breaking anyway. Stratos ends up carrying his enemy through the dark on his own back rather than leaving him behind, which is as much the episode's point as anything the plot does.
The Kulitox who guard the Eternium put both of them through the same trust test at the end, and the result splits cleanly: Trap Jaw fails it and Stratos passes. The episode gives each of them half of the same story, which is why it is also the centerpiece of the Trap Jaw (200x) page.
