Queen Baralooda commands the Alfressian race (alternatively known as Arfessians or Afressians) in their campaign for galactic conquest. As an antagonist, she directs formidable military forces and employs strategic aggression, utilizing tactics like hostage-taking to exert control and achieve her goals. Her defining conflict is a direct confrontation with Emeraldas, ignited by the Alfressians' unauthorized use of the skull and crossbones insignia on their warships. Emeraldas asserts this emblem belongs solely to her vessel and Captain Harlock's. This dispute escalates into a fierce duel where Queen Baralooda ultimately meets her defeat at Emeraldas's hands.
