Biography[]
Warriors of Cumorah[]
Though Blue-Crocodile does not physically appear, information about him is revealed through dialogue. Years ago, when Fireborn was leading his campaign to purge the line of Yax-Chaax-Xok, he set his sights on the city of Tikal, where Great-Jaguar-Paw ruled. After Fireborn had murdered Jaguar-Paw and his family, he and Spearthrower Owl appointed Blue-Crocodile as the emperor of Tikal.
Years later, the Nephite prophet Moroni comes to Tikal to try to forge a treaty with Blue-Crocodile. Blue-Crocodile, however, refuses to come to an agreement with him. He imprisons Moroni, along with his companions Gilgal and Tz'ikin, in Tikal's prison.
Later, in Blue-Crocodile's absence, Moroni and his companions are rescued by Lamanai, Apollus, Ryan Champion, Antionum, Jacobah, and an army of warriors from Seibalche.
