**Tank** is the main antagonist of the feature film, *Dreamcoast*. He is the malicious sorcerer of Dreamcoast with plans to overthrown his brother, Davis and rule the Disney realm. Being a forgotten and exiled character gave Tank a sense of jealousy over the Dreamcoastians for being remembered and loved by fans in the mortal world. After being brought back to life by a magical storm, Tank sets off to reclaim Dreamcoast and turn it into his own world. But, Tank learns that his plan will be unsuccessful should his brother's successor, Mark defeat him.

## Background

Tank was drawn to the oldest brother of Elliott from the feature film, *Pete's Dragon* but the writer decided to have Tank erased from the movie. Despite being deleted, Tank was transported to Dreamcoast but in a distance location, unknown of where to go. Only thing that Tank did know is that he's oldest brother of Elliott and he eventually learned that his brother became king of Dreamcoast. Upon learning that, Tank made way to the kingdom. Once he arrived at the kingdom, he calmly demanded his brother to hand him the crown and throne, saying that the oldest in the family should receive the crown.

Davis refused to surrender his crown and the only way, the dragons could settle this is over a battle. Davis won the battle fair and square but Tank made one more attempt to steal the crown but just as the dragon was about to smite his brother with his sword, Davis grabbed the former's sword and stabbed him in the heart. Although Tank's death was confirmed, he wasn't gone for good, he would someday return back to the kingdom to exact revenge on his brother for his death.

Since Tank's death, he has remained feared by the entire kingdom. As Tank died in 2015, characters were advised to be on look out for green magic as it was the remnants of Tank's magic. Flora stated that Tank's magic is more powerful than the fairies and if a character is the victim of one of Tank's spells, her magic can't break the spell. The only one who can break Tank's spells is the next king or queen of Dreamcoast.

### Personality

Tank is a fiercely determined and ambitious who makes strong efforts to achieve his goals. Tank's primary goal was to gain power and fame by usurping the throne by any means necessary. Tank's desire for power suddenly turned into an obsession as his first attempt to seize control of the throne failed. Being imprisoned in the underworld gave Tank, a more vengeful and hostile outlook as he'll not only steal throne but will destroy those who are destined to rule or those who want to challenge him for it. Once he was revived and regained his powers, Tank successfully overtook the kingdom and began to rule the kingdom as a fearsome, tyrannical and totalitarian king. Unfortunately, his reign over the kingdom was not unassailable. With Davis and Sammie imprisoned in a painting, it is up to Mark to restore the kingdom.

Aware of this, Tank created a team of mercenaries to eliminate Mark and his friends, so he can remain in power. Tank held a bigotry towards the characters, mostly because they were accepted for who they were while he wasn't accepted into the kingdom as an individual. Despite ruling a magical kingdom and being feared by all of the characters, Tank still wanted more. He wished to destroy all of the magic and use his magical abilities to transform Dreamcoast into a kingdom, eliminating the characters in the process.

Tank's powerful asset was his intelligence. When Mark and the gang began to look for and defeat Tank, the dragon put his intelligence to the test as he created different kinds of assassins to eliminate them along the way.

Tank was callous and remorseless towards his minions, as he showed no care when they were hurt or even killed. Apparently, Tank didn't want to share the power and fame with his henchmen, instead, he wanted to keep it all to himself, showing a great level of selfishness, egotism and pride. Ultimately, Tank's pride and desire for power and acceptance lead to his downfall. Even though, Tank saw Mark, as an enemy, he saw him as caring and understanding person, since they both wanted to be accepted for who he is. However, when Tank didn't want to be defeated again, he tried one last attempt to kill Mark and remain in power.

One of the reasons, Tank descended into villainy was the mistreatment that he had to endure while living on the streets of the Disney kingdom. Tank is basically a dark glimpse of Mark would've become if he didn't choose to let go of his grudges and move on with his life.

## Appearances

### Dreamcoast

Mark was chosen to rule Dreamcoast as king when the fairies chose him as the kingdom's dream spirit. Shortly after being teleported to kingdom, the boys left the kingdom with a group of Disney characters to spend time with. During their absence, a mysterious lightning storm revives Tank and recharges his powers. With Mark and his brothers gone for three days, Tank was free to take over. First, he imprisoned Davis and Sammie in an enchanted painting and conjured up a fleet of monsters to scare the Disney characters back into their homes. Once his takeover was complete, Tank returned to his volcanic lair under Dreamcoast.

Mark formed an alliance of characters to help him find Tank and defeat him, so the curse will be lifted from the kingdom. Upon learning that Mark has returned and formed an alliance, Tank makes some noise in city hall to lure Mark and his friends. He appears in the city hall and informs the gang, that he has send an assassin to kill his niece, Princess Annabelle, in order to complete his vengeance against the royal family. Before magically disappearing, Tank gave the gang, a riddle for them to solve in order to rescue Annabelle.

Luckily, the Beast and Belle solved the riddle and learned that Annabelle was in a secret room under Cinderella's chateau. Just as the gang was about to bring Annabelle and Cinderella back to the abandoned village, Tank's pet, Scales dropped down from the ceiling and began to attack the gang. Mark managed to defeat Scales by pulling out his powercore with Tinker Bell's flying dust. The princesses are saved and safely brought back to the abandoned village. Once they were brought back into the village, it was revealed that Tank ordered his monster henchmen to kidnap Cinderella from the group by using a bomb that can freeze time. Mark discovers that the time bomb was from Tomorrowland in a shop known as the Time Zone.

While the gang was in Time Zone, Mark learned that Tank used to be best friends with Tank until a heated argument ended their friendship. He then figured that Tank wanted to exact revenge on Tank, so he and the gang were about to make way to Darwin's observatory to rescue him, only for them to run into another assassin, DJ, Jimmy's corrupted brother. Mark, Tinker Bell and Vidia manage to overpower their foe by placing him under an enchanted sleeping spell. It was just revealed that Tank used his dark powers to hijack the other robots of Tomorrowland, making them his slaves, henchmen and assassins.

At Darwin's observatory, Tank sent a box over there for Cujo to open. When he opened it, a living brain came out and was injected into his body, turning him against Darwin and making him a minion of Tank. Once again, the gang manage to return Cujo back to normal by putting the correct brain in his head and discarding the rotten one. Seeing how Mark is able to defeat his assassins, he decides to take matters into own hands by dropping Mark down to his volcanic lair.

In his lair, he tries to manipulate Mark into joining his team, but fails. Instead, he threatens to kill Mickey Mouse and Friends if Mark makes an effort to beat him up. Mark realizes if Tank kills Mickey and Friends, the magical crystals, they're concealing will be destroyed and so will the existence of the Disney characters. Mark makes a deal with Tank. Tank will turn Mark into a dragon and the two will fight. If Mark wins, Tank will lift the curse and will be forced to leave Dreamcoast forever. But if Mark fails, he will become a prisoner to Tank for an eternity.

Mark was turned into a dragon but with the latter have a low confidence and self-esteem, he couldn't defeat Tank, who is on the verge of killing Mark. Luckily for Mark, his friends and family lifted his spirits and a confident and brave Mark began to battle Tank with help from Mickey Mouse and Friends. The team manage to temporarily overpower Tank by causing rocks to fall down and trap him. Mickey and Friends leave the volcanic lair, not before giving Mark, their laser gun.

Tank breaks free of the rocks and calmly "surrenders." Mark, who seemingly believes puts the laser gun in his pocket. Just then, Tank reveals that he has lied to Mark and tries one more attempt to kill Mark and remain in power. Mark uses the laser gun to shoot down a pillar. The pillar crumbles, topples down and crushes Tank to death. The rocky portion with Tank's corpse falls into the lava and melts, confirming that Tank is gone for good.

Following Tank's death, Mark is safely brought back to the kingdom by Hurley and Mufasa, the characters cheer for Mark as their hero and he assumes his rightful role as king of Dreamcoast with Annabelle as his queen.
