Biography[]
Background[]
Cragger is seen with Laval before they became enemies, talking with Laval and hopping on Laval's back. He later sneaks into the Lion CHI Temple to get a CHI orb from the Sacred Pool of CHI. However, he is caught by Laval and promises that he will never steal any of the CHI again. However, Cragger breaks that promise and returns to the Lion CHI Temple to steal the CHI again. However, his theft is reported to his father Crominus by Lagravis and they later meet at the temple which leads to a war between the Lion Tribe and the Crocodile Tribe. When he finds out that his parents, Crominus and Crunket, had fallen down a cliff and are trapped in their vehicle, Crooler controls his mind with a flower; encouraging him to become the King of the Crocodile Tribe and destroy the Lion Tribe.
Cragger joins forces with Worriz and the Wolf Tribe and orders them to attack the Lion CHI Temple. Just as Laval is about to use his CHI, he drops it due to the rumbling of the Crocodile Tribe and Wolf Tribe forces attacking the temple and Cragger steals the CHI orb while wearing his father's golden helmet. Laval later removes the helmet to find that it is Cragger who stole his CHI. Cragger later starts a Speedorz fight with Laval, whom he now blames for the disappearance of his parents and throws Laval into some water hoping that he is dead and returns to the Lion CHI Temple to steal the CHI. However, Laval is rescued by the Lion Legend Beast and returns to the temple to ward of Cragger and his forces.
Season 1[]
At the opening of episode "The Legend of Chima", Cragger with his tribe and other two tribes captured Eris and went to attack the lion tribe's palace to steal CHI, he batteled against Laval in an Speedorz battle, later he recognized Cragger.
In episode 3, "The Warrior Within", Crooler has seemingly took complete control over Cragger's mind, with him only questioning her statements when the effect wears off. He first comes in at the Lion Chi temple with his sister, asking for Chi. Despite Laval still being hostile, Lagravis still gives him the Chi, as it is the rule. Laval comes after them while they're leaving in his Command Ship, and warns them about their Chi usage. After Crawley is swatted away, and Crug is losing against Laval, Cragger gives Laval all of his Chi, with Crug bearing witness. He then broadcasts that the Lions stole their Chi, and will never give them any more, in front of his entire tribe. Laval and Eris come back to give the Chi back, but Cragger mumbles threats to them, (that his tribe can't hear) which forces Laval to scream "YOU'RE NEVER GETTING OUR CHI!", in front of all the crocodiles, making them hate him even more. Laval throws their Chi down the Fangs, and keeps one to fight off their army. However, Cragger pushes him over, only for Laval to be saved by Eris' Eagle Intercepter. Cragger then sent a message to Razar and Worriz to come and attack Laval with their armies, but because Gorzan was protecting a flower on the road, they couldn't come. When Laval goes to find the Legend Beast, Cragger cuts him off, and reveals that he still had an orb of Chi, which he uses. When everything heats up, Plovar comes in, annoying Cragger, Laval, and all of the Crocs. When they throw weapons at him and force him to leave, Cragger's forces and his Chi overwhelm Laval, until an army of Eagles and Lions come in to save him. Because their allies were held back, Cragger had to retreat. However, Crooler comes up with another brilliant plan, thinking that the lions only have allies because they control the Chi.
In episode "The Hundred Year Moon", Worriz visited Cragger and informed him of the hundred year moon phenomenon that would take place in a few days time. Under the influence of Crooler, the crocodile king decided to take advantage of the situation by ordering her sister to kidnap G'Loona. He held the little gorilla hostage at the Forever Rock in the hopes that Laval and his friends would go looking for her and be destroyed by the insane wolves.
In "Foxtrot", Cragger set a trap for ShadoWind by the Grand Archway canyon prior to the next Chi-day race. ShadoWind managed to elude it however and the only one captured by the nets was the crocodile king himself. Just before the race, Cragger was informed by Crug and Crawley that the other tribes were planning to cheat. Indeed, during the race, Cragger fell victim to the bear's honey causing him to crash. After rioting broke out in the stands, Cragger noticed Crooler sneaking into the lion city with the wolves and concerned, followed. He at last found them just outside of the sacred pool where he was aghast to find that Crooler was helping the wolves steal the chi and sided with them, leaving the crocodile king alone. Just before fighting broke out, however, Laval arrived and the two worked together again to battle Worriz. When the wolf copter arrived to take the Chi, Cragger grabbed onto the bottom of the craft and dueled Worriz until Windra stomped on his hand and the crocodile fell, only to be saved by Laval. Shortly after, Crawley and Crug arrived in a claw ripper to take their injured king home.
In "The CHI Jackers", he arrived at the crocodile swamp to find Crooler with her half of the stolen Chi. Still angered about her betrayal, he ordered her thrown out of the castle.
In "The Balancing Act", Cragger witnessed a croc flare sent up by Crooler, though disregarded it as he was tired of fighting. He then noticed Crooler's basket of Persuader Plants and unintentionally inhaled its controlling aroma. Now filled with rage, he ordered his troops ready and by the time Crooler returned with a truckload of the wolves Chi, his forces were prepared for battle. They followed the wolves to the canyon where Laval and Eris escaped from them moments prior and the two tribes battled. Unfortunately, the Wolves were overpowered by the Chi and Cragger's forces were defeated with ease.
In episode "For Chima", Cragger briefly rejoins the heroes to fight off the black cloud. Sadly, when the CHI falls run dry, Cragger blames Laval. Cragger rallies the Ravens, the only tribe that was loyal to him for the entire season, the Wolves, who were obedient due to the Pledge of the Pack, and the Rhinos, who were persuaded by mounds of rocks. It was a repeat of the first major battle, with the Crocodiles beating the lions, but the victory was by a far greater margin, and their allies were cut off before they could even arrive. In the midst of battle, Laval and Cragger dual. Both are evenly matched, but they both end up taking a devastating fall. This causes a montage of their greatest moments. Laval ends up breaking Cragger's fall, but ends up dying as a result, much to the horror of Cragger and Lagravis. Cragger runs away, to Laval's room, where he makes a teary confession to Laval in his bed, only to read a note that Laval isn't dead. Later, Cragger tries to persuade Worriz to let Lagravis and his men go, but to no avail. Suddenly, Laval and Crunket arrive on the Crocodile Legend Beast, and the fighting stopped. Cragger is ecstatic that Laval rescued his "mommy", but Crunket reveals that there are dark tribes, which are behind the black cloud, and that they want all of the CHI. Cragger, along with his allies Razar, Worriz, and Rhogon, join forces with the heroes, Laval, Eris, Gorzan, and Bladvic, to save Chima from these evil tribes.
