Iron Man Mask General Temujin (鉄人仮面テムジン将軍 Tetsujin Kamen Temujin Shōgun), also known as the Mongol Demon, is a general of the Black Cross Army and a major antagonist in Himitsu Sentai Gorenger. He is the second general to serve as the Black Cross Führer's lead officer after Sun Halo Mask's defeat. A cold and sadistic operative, he is a brilliant tactician and also formed his own army called the "Steel Brigade" (Tetsu Gundan). He carried a battle staff which ended in a sickle-like blade and was often accompanied by two high-ranking Zolders dressed as military officers. He was vain and prideful, often letting his ego get in the way of his operations.
He was voiced by the late Shozo Iizuka, who would also voice Black Cross generals Volcano Mask General Magman and Commander-in-Chief Golden Mask as well as many other villains in the Super Sentai franchise.
Biography[]
General Temujin was summoned from Black Cross Army's Gobi Desert operations to defeat the Gorengers following Sun Halo Mask's failures to do so. He arrived following Sun Halo Mask's defeat by the Gorengers and immediately commenced a plan to seize the legendary warship responsible for sinking the city of Atlantis, having uncovered half a map leading to the airship's location while in the Gobi Desert.
Eventually, after his continued failures to defeat the Gorengers, the Black Cross Führer became dissatisfied and summoned Volcano Mask General Magman to replace him. Learning of this, Iron Man Mask launched a final attack on the Gorengers in order to prove himself. Though he was virtually indestructible thanks to his steel armor, but ultimately, he was killed when Aoranger controlled the Variblune remotely and the Goranger Storm balls that Temujin placed on his shoulders exploded in the Variblune cockpit, taking both Temujin and the Variblune with them.
