Drum Bunker Dragon

Drum Bunker Dragon (Full Name: Fang Slade Terrestrial XIII) and simply known as Drum is one of the recurring protagonists in the Anime TV series Future Card Buddyfight. He was Gao Mikado's first and original buddy and is also the current chief of the Drum Clan and the son of Drum Bunker Dragon Father, the former leader of the Drum Clan. 
During the events of the first season, when Drum became buddies with Gao, their relationship started out rocky but they eventually got along with each other. Drum with later leave Gao to train in different worlds, allowing him to assume different forms based on each world he went to, as well as giving himself and Gao new card powers and abilities. 
In the second season, the two joined the Buddy Police as trainees as part of the Trainee Program. Drum would later become a powerful monsters known as the Fifth Omni Dragon Lord, a member of a group of monsters called the Omni Lords, whose task is to stop the monstrous Yamigedo from consuming and destroying the world.
Following the second season of the series, Drum stepped down as Gao's buddy so he could return to his home of Dragon World to succeed his father as the new chief of the clan, and would eventually become a father to 10 children. In the fifth season of the series, Drum (alongside Dragon of the Sun, Bal Dragon) reunites with Gao, after being invited by Guru Bumbuku for the GGG Cup, where he aids Gao in winning the tournament. Drum would then return to Dragon World but promised that he will come and visit Gao and his family.
== Appearance ==
Drum Bunker Dragon has the average appearance as the other members of the Drum Clan, with a red colored body, an orange underbelly, and flowing spiky gold hair. He wore gold-colored armor, with a ruby jewel set into the cuirass, and dons a dark red tattered cape, along with a brown belt to hold his torso and pelvic armor together. As another weapon, he wears a three-clawed wrist plate on his left arm.
== Personality ==
Drum is introduced as hotheaded, stubborn, reckless, and somewhat selfish. At first he had difficulty understanding the human world and didn't get along with most people, especially with Gao, whom he refused to acknowledge as his Buddy, after hearing him agree with Noboru over the superiority of Dragon Knights, which Drum has a strong dislike of. He is even intolerant of dragons (such as himself) being insulted as inferior.
Because he and Gao had a rocky relationship from the start, they frequently bickered about trivial things such as pudding. This even led to Drum to get angry or freak out if he is deprived off his food, even if it can be accidental, as evident as when he learns that Gao had accidentally eaten a pudding that was meant for him, Drum immediately breathes fire in Gao's face.
As the son of the Drum clan's chief, Drum has some self-confidence issues as he often fears he's not living up to his father's expectations and constantly tries to prove his worth to himself. During the ABC cup he developed an inferiority complex that pushed him to run away from Gao to train at other worlds.
After returning from his training Drum slowly starts maturing and becomes more selfless. He grew to consider Gao his true Buddy and became very loyal to him, as shown when the entire world turned against Gao after the Gaen Cup for challenging Kyouya Gaen.
Drum is aware that being Fang Slade XIII's son has earned him many things in life and is grateful for it, but he doesn't care about glory or prestige. Instead, he only cares about living up to the expectations of those he cares about such as his father and Fifth Omni Dragon Lord Tenbu.
