Drakor

Drakor!!!

Overview

Drakor is one of the first major recurring rivals in the universe. Known for his strength and persistence, he continues to challenge the main characters across different arcs.

Role in the Story

Drakor: The Honorable Rival Drakor embodies the classic rival archetype, yet his evolution transforms him into something far more significant. Introduced as the formidable leader of the "Night Shifters," an elite team of fighters, he first appears as a persistent challenger to Victoria Black and her sisters in Conton City's fighting circuit. He is a tenacious and tactical warrior, possessing strength on par with top Saiyan fighters, but his true importance lies in his character arc. Initially a straightforward antagonist, Drakor's relationship with the heroes gradually shifts from pure rivalry to begrudging respect, and eventually to that of an anti-heroic ally. His battles with Victoria, Wargirl, and Binary are tests of skill that end not in annihilation, but in earned respect. Over time, this dynamic evolves to the point where Drakor actively intervenes to "defend Victoria and her family from dishonor and corruption in Conton City". This is a critical transition; he moves from challenging their power to upholding their values. He operates under his own code of honor, often handling lesser threats by claiming he will be the one to defeat the Saiyan sisters one day, and thus will not allow anyone else to weaken them or cheat them of an honorable fight. In this capacity, Drakor's existence serves as an external moral compass for the heroes. As he transforms from enemy to a protector of their "honor," he implicitly holds them to a standard of conduct. His presence poses a constant, unspoken question: are the heroes living up to the principles that even their staunchest rival has come to respect and defend? He becomes a mirror reflecting their own code, a thematic counterweight to the universe's more chaotic and dishonorable villains. His fate is not to be defeated, but to endure as a recurring "friendly rival," a permanent fixture who ensures the integrity of the fight itself is maintained.

Powers and Abilities

Alternate Versions

The Past Warrior

The Past Warrior is an alternate version of Drakor, originating from the distant past. He is a powerful ancient Saiyan who has mastered the Super Saiyan 3 form to the point of permanence. Unlike modern Saiyans, The Past Warrior maintains his SSJ3 without the severe stamina drain, wielding his heavy sword and clad in dark warrior armor with a tan scarf and leather gloves. His stoic nature and unyielding presence mark him as a symbol of the lost age of Saiyan honor.
