Origin
Rok-Korr was a monster created by
Lord Maur-Kon, the leader of the Followers of Darkness. Rok-Korr was unleashed on Tokyo and came into conflict with
Raydeen of the
Shogun Warriors.
Dr. Tambura recruited three individuals named
Ilongo Savage,
Genji Odashu and
Richard Carson into the Followers of the Light and they would pilot the three Shogun Warriors. Raydeen believed he had stopped Rok-Korr when he beheaded the monster with his breaker blade but Rok-Korr reformed himself. Lord Maur-Kon employed some magic to multiply Rok-Korr into three elemental forms: earth, water and fire. The three elemental versions of Rok-Korr battled Raydeen,
Combatra and
Dangard Ace. Rok-Korr created a storm cloud in water form and attacked with a barrage of lightning strikes. All three Shogun Warriors struck the cloud at once and it burst into a massive rainfall that destroyed the fire elemental. Rok-Korr in earth form, had absorbed himself into a mountain and attacked all three warriors with an avalanche. All three Shogun Warriors formed a power triangle and shattered the entire mountain to dust.
Creation

Doug Moench and
