Biography[]

CERTIFIABLY-INSANE CYBORG

Once a megalomaniacal warlord who ruled the planet Fellius, Kranos was eaten by a Fellian Rock Worm and only his brain survived. After his troops provided his brain with a robotic, water-filled body, Kranos vowed to avenge his body. Using a large arsenal of weapons including Lefty and Rightey (his twin swords), a Shock Spear, and a Scorch Hammer, Kranos takes over labratories on his search for the perfect tools for his doomsday device.

THE LEGACY OF EMPEROR KRANOS:

  • Bing: Powered-Up
  • Goop GP

Arcade[]

Opening[]

Kranos's story opens as a group of Shockbots are rummaging through a labratory. They ransack the lab, destroying quite a few large machines and pieces of equipment. Suddenly, a large door blasts open, revealing Silas Kranos. Kranos slices through several walls with his laser swords. He orders his Shockbots to find a rod of plutonium. Kranos senses something and blows up a wall, which seems to be the source of the disturbance.

Rival[]

Name: Emperor Kranos

Reason: As Emperor Kranos searches for tools, he comes across the Duke of Zorn. The Duke asks who Kranos is and what he is doing. Silas says he's just an emperor looking for a few good men made of metal. The Duke assumes that Kranos is referring to his Zone Soldiers. He tells the emperor that the soldiers work for him. Silas says he'll get what he needs, if it's the last thing he does.

Connection: Both Emperor Kranos and Duke of Zorn are sword-using characters that are referred to by terms of royalty. They both command large armies of robotic henchman; Kranos's Shockbots and the Duke's Zone Soldiers.

Ending[]

After defeating The Great Mighty Spiral, Kranos comes across a rod of plutonium, only to immediately eat it, only having wanted it for food. He then creates a large cloud of electricity that short-circuits the entire labratory. As the lights go out, Silas's eyes begin glowing yellow as he laughs maniacally.
