"You are more foolish than I thought!" - Drakor

Overview

The true main villain of Dinosaur Planet. He's controlling General Scales and orchestrate the whole operation. He will stop at nothing to stop the alignment of the Majestic 8.

Character Bio

The characters' biographies were leaked (with other promotional material such as official renders, condensed story and gameplay footage) on the website RareThief in September 2012. All bios are dated for the year 2000.

It’s worth mentioning though, not all character’s information and trivia are present in the December 1, 2000 prototype. These were probably written pretty early on in the development of the game to summarize each character, but were not really changed after the game’s story underwent many changes and evolutions. (i.e : Krystal's backstory not being mentioned except that she was adopted by Randorn or Krystal’s crush on Sabre even though they are siblings.)

What he wants to do when Dinosaur Planet has been destroyed?
He will bathe in the sweet waters of revenge when all the Krazoa lie dead and then will unleash his powers on the rest of the Majestic 8!

Personality
Drakor is the epitome of pure evil. Even other members of his own race, the Kamerians, who are hardly angels themselves could not understand the depth of his hatred!

Labeled as a threat to their society, Drakor was banished from his planet. This only caused to fuel his anger even more and gave the spark to his evil plot.

Role in the game
Little is revealed about Drakor, as initially General Scales appears to be the main baddie. It is not until the Krazoa reveal themselves that you learn of the Dragon and his plans.

His role has been to supply Scales with his advanced technology and equip him with the firepower needed to take control of Dinosaur Planet.

Background
Although little is known about the Drakor, it is believed that his race were around at the same time as the Krazoa. The Kamerians were not evil to the core but they did not wish to be ruled over by the Krazoa and did not believe in worshipping the Quan Ata Lachu.

After the Kamerian's defeat during the Great War, they became a peaceful race. Evolution changed them from huge war loving creatures into smaller peace loving ones (though they still look very scary!)

Drakor knew that the last Great War Dragon had died above a planet now populated with annoying creatures called Dinosaurs! This very same planet is also the universe's greatest source of pure magic energy. If he can utilize the huge resources of power, he believes he can bring the War Dragon back to life and use it's destructive forces for his
own.

Enlisting the help of a foolish Dinosaur called General Scales; he begins his evil plan...

Concept arts and early idealizations

Concept art is pretty close (but no wings!) to the final model in-game - execept the hands are reversed and in the in-game model, the Power Claw is in his right hand.

His tail is longer as well compared in-game. He also doesn't have a bracelet around his naked arm.
