Kara Cooper is a recurring character in the fifth season. She was portrayed by Kyra Zagorsky and debuted in Red Queen and died in How We Get to Peace.

Kara was a member of Skaikru that survived the Second Nuclear Apocalypse inside the Second Dawn Bunker along with the rest of Wonkru.

Early Life

She was born on the Ark. She is a third-generation Farm Station resident, and she managed the hydroponic farm. Her father died as part of the Ark's culling. Her husband was culled during the bunker culling.

Throughout the Series

In a flashback in Red Queen, Kara is in charge of the food inside the bunker. Octavia wants to know if they can survive for five years with the food that they have in storage. Kara tells her that the overpopulation of the bunker will inhibit them to survive for longer than five years.

Seeing as the only solution to the problem is a population reduction, Kara decides to take matters into her own hand, and leads an uprising against Octavia in order to save her people, by sealing off the bunker's farm from the rest of the clans, leaving them on the other side of the door to starve to death. Octavia and Thelonious Jaha manage to open the door. She then tries to kill herself to avoid the slow and painful death that she believes Octavia is preparing for her. Octavia stops her by throwing a knife into her hand.

She is then seen in the Gladiator Ring with the other people who broke Wonkru's law. Octavia declares that all the prisoners will fight to death as in a conclave, the winner being rewarded with his life, and throws her sword into the ring. Kara is the fastest to go pick up the sword and becomes the first person to win the fight and get out of the ring.

Six years later, she is standing next to Octavia with tattoos on her forehead and holding a spear. She is now a member of Octavia's close guard with Nathan Miller, Indra and Gaia.

In Pandora's Box, she is still standing next to Octavia. She watches Marcus Kane fighting with the other Gladiators. The next day, she is again at Octavia's side to watch Kane's second fight.

In Shifting Sands, she advises Octavia, Indra, Clarke Griffin and Bellamy Blake about the food supply running low.


In a flashback in The Dark Year, two years after Praimfaya. She is in a meeting with Octavia, Abigail Griffin and Marcus Kane telling them that a fungus has destroyed the soy bean crop. Abby says there's only one solution, cannibalism. In the cafeteria she, Indra, Niylah, Nathan Miller, Eric Jackson, Abby, Marcus and wonkru are ready to eat the human meat. Kara gags as she eats it.
