~ Master Kaku describing the Gorma Tribe to Ryo. |
The Gorma Tribe were an ancient tribe coming back into modern society to destroy humanity and the main antagonists of Gosei Sentai Dairanger.
History[]
Past[]
8,000 years ago in ancient China, the mighty Daos Empire was made of three tribes: the Dai Tribe, the Gorma Tribe and the Shurs Tribe. Unlike the other tribes, the Gorma were comprised of an emperor, his senate and generals and the Gorma Minions; normal humans that would The three tribes lived in harmony with one another until the Gorma Tribe decided to destroy the other two and take over the world. After the conflict resulted in both sides being devastated and the Gorma almost completely wiped out, Shadam (as one of the few survivors) created clay doppelgangers of all the upper Gorma leadership, giving them fake memories to make them believe they were real. Unbeknownst to Shadam however, he himself was a clay puppet although what happened to the others is unknown.
Dairanger[]
In 1993, the Gorma re-emerge in new forms and the Gorma Triumvirate spearhead the return of the Gorma into our world. However, they are opposed by the Dairangers (the decedents of the Dai Tribe warriors who defeated them). Possessing Qi-Power, the enigmatic Master Kaku gathers the team together and tells them of who they were to fight. When the modern Dairangers defeat the Gorma multiple times, the Emperor sends Archbishop Saw to destroy them but they manage to kill him as well.
After the deaths of Akomaru and the Three Ladies of Hell, Gorma Emperor XV brings the Gorma Palace to Earth. Once there, he summons the Triumvirate and is initially interested until Shadam reveals the awakening of a sixth Mythical Chi Beast. Interested, Gorma XV gives Shadam command over the Earth's invasion instead of General Tenpou due to his greater experience. Shortly after the death of the Fast-Talking Wanderer, Gorma XV brings Akomaru out of Hell and grants Shadam use of the Gorma Four Deva Kings in his battles against the Dairangers but they are killed anyway. When Daijinryuu attacks the Earth, Master Kaku enters the Gorma Palace and tries to convince the Gorma Emperor to call a cease fire. Although the Emperor repeatedly refuses, the near death of his entourage convinces him to call a ceasefire and Daijinryuu leaves although the ceasefire is very short-lived.
Eventually, after the death of Akomaru and Ikazuchi, Shadam makes his move by calling for the Gorma Emperor to be dethroned and demands the Earth-Shaking Jewel. Desperate to avoid this, Kaku and his old ally remove the Dairangers' powers and challenges Shadam to a duel where he has the upper-hand. However, after Gara and Zydos destroy the towers giving him extra power at the cost of the latter's life, Kaku loses all power and is killed as Shadam declares victory. When confronted by Shadam though, the Emperor refuses and attempts to use the Earth Shaking Jewel to kill Shadam himself. However, Shadam reveals the Emperor's true nature as a clay puppet created by Shadam himself and a pawn to make Shadam become the new Gorma Emperor just as Shadam makes the Emperor crumble into mud.
Becoming Gorma Emperor XVI, Shadam seeks to use the Earth Shaking Jewel to dominate the entire world but also becomes cursed by the same madness that had afflicted its previous wielders. However, after Daijinryuu appears, the Earth Shaking Jewel abandons Shadam to appease the mighty god's wrath. Shadam attempts to flee the Gorma Palace but is confronted by Ryo in the throne room and fights him in a knife duel. After being beaten and impaled on his own knife by Ryo, Shadam is revealed as nothing more than a clay puppet much to his own horror as he crumbles to dust. The Dairangers then very narrowly make thier escape as Daijinryuu destroys the Gorma Palace and leaves the Earth forever; ending them as a threat.
However, all of the Gorma will revive always in the future because the Yo Power they use is the counterpart to the Dai Tribe's Dai Power. As long as the Dai Power exists, so will the Gorma Tribe be resurrected as seen 50 years later in 2043 when the New Gorma Monster emerges and is killed by a new generation of Dairangers.
