Biography[]
Past[]
As with all Orgs, Mandilok formed from toxic pools of muck and desired to conquer the Earth by turning it into a polluted wasteland; ideal for thier species. Led by the most powerful of thier kind, Master Org, the Orgs attacked the Earth and culminated in a final battle against the ancient kingdom of Animaria 3000 years ago. Although the Orgs managed to destroy the kingdom, the majority's bodies were destroyed and sealed in the Nexus, with Mandilok themself being sealed in a separate tomb and turned to stone.
Wild Force[]
In 2002, after the present Master Org is revealed to be an imposter named Viktor Adler, he brainwashes Jindrax and Toxica only for them to be freed and flee. As a result of the treachery, they locate and free Mandilok before confronting Adler after the latter lost his Master Org powers in his fight with Cole. With Adler powerless, Mandilok mocks him for trying to take over the Orgs, swears off loyalty to the original Master Org while declaring themself the new leader and throws Adler off of a cliff to his death though not before the human swears revenge to Mandilok's amusement. Later, when Kite (the reincarnation of Animus himself) becomes angry at humanity for all the damage they have done to the planet, Mandilok manipulates him into turning on the Rangers and taking their Wildzords. The Rangers are then helpless against the Toy Org after it grows to giant size but, after they show they are still willing to fight even without their Zords, Animus restores Merrick's Wildzords and helps him in defeating the Org before returning all of the Wild zords.
Furious at losing the opportunity to finally destroy humanity, Mandilok blames Jindrax and Toxica for it but is then approached by a new Duke Org, Onikage who has a plan to capture Princess Shayla. However, Toxica accidentally ruins the plan when she touches the sacred water on the Animarium, not knowing it harms Orgs; incurring further anger from Mandilok. Her desperation to prove herself to the Org General leads to her allowing Onikage to cut off her horn which he tells her would make her impervious to the water's effects and that it would grow back (a complete lie). Toxica succeeds in capturing Princess Shayla and bringing her to Mandilok, becoming visibly weakened due to the loss of her horn and begs for her master's help, but they only tosses her aside due to her weakened state and having no care about her well-being. The Rangers arrive and fire the Jungle Blaster at the Org General, but Mandilok uses Toxica as a shield against the blast whilst saying it had finally found a good use for her. Mandilok then makes Jindrax bring Shayla back to the Nexus and had Onikage take on the Rangers.
Mandilok then accompanies Onikage, Jindrax, and Shayla to the rock quarry to meet the Rangers where the Ninja Org offers to hold his weapon so that Mandilok can relax and enjoy its victory which Mandilok agrees to. Upon the Rangers' arrival, Onikage then uses his powers to create dark versions of the Rangers, the Shadow Rangers, and Mandilok watches as the Rangers struggle against them, congratulating the Ninja Org on his perfect trap. However Master Org arrives, now transformed into a true Org with a horn, and Onikage reveals to the General Org that he has been working for Master Org from the beginning and hands Mandilok's weapon to him. After being cornered in the same cliff they once threw Adler to his death in, Mandilok attempts to attack Master Org but is destroyed by a powerful energy blast from Master's Org staff.
Later though, Mandilok is resurrected as a shell of their former self along Retinax and Nayzor to guard one of the pillars involved in the Org Heart ceremony, Mandilok is confronted by Max and Danny and though initially proving too strong for them is briefly immobilized by Max to let Danny destroy the statue they guarded. When Mandilok and the Generals regroup and showcase their new Nexus Blade (created by combining their weapons) they used it to try and strike down the Rangers but after the team uses the Jungle Blaster this fails and Mandilok winds up destroyed along with the other two generals by the Jungle Blaster's finisher. Mandilok was then integrated into Master Org's new body and destroyed for good alongside him in the finale.
