He is merciless and unforgiving and seeks to reform the Earth in his image.

He showed no gratitude to the enemy by revealing the location of their new hiding place to Desmark, however with the excuse of paying his debt to the Goggle V for saving him, he protects them from Bear Moozoo.

She took the control from Desgiller and set the bomb to try to destroy Desgiller, but failed.
