Tankor

**Tankor** is a Vehicon-type Acclera Drone and Commander of the Tank Drones, he was previously known as **Grady Gator**, an associate of Clyp Agency and worked for Gelorum before he was converted into a Vehicon.

## Appearance

In his time as Grady Gator, he was a muscular, Caucasian male, with long white hair grown from what's left around his head, and a beard. He wears a brown shirt with the sleeves cut off and his name on the front, blue jeans, large steel-toed work boots, and large green bracelets on each arm.

### Vehicon

When he became a Vehicon now known as Tankor, he is a large hulking robot with blue shoulder pads and chest plate, pincers for hands, a red visor, and a cannon on His right shoulder. His feet have been replaced with continuous tracks to roll him instead of walking.

## Personality

Tankor is slow, simple-minded and immensely powerful. Lovably dim, his limited intelligence can be a drawback; he can easily be confused, misled, or even turned against Gelorum, though temporarily. However, this is balanced out by his natural state of blind frustration and destructive rage, which makes getting him to listen to any cajoling a less than simple task.

## Biography

### Early Life

Born as Grady Gator, he came into employment by Gelorum to work for her for a few jobs and travelled to certain countries such as Rodigan, possibly worked alongside Jetstorm in the past but uncertain.

### Vehicon

At some point, Grady ended up becoming part Gelorum's experiment to create new models of drones from observing the latest developments of the warriors on Earth and transferred the data files of their skills and abilities into the development of the new generals. However, in need to control the new Vehicon army that lack the intelligence or the preservation to operate, she needed generals of advanced units to command them and for the Tank drones. Grady was selected and his mind transferred form his body into his new Vehicon body, now goes by the name as Tankor to command the Tank Drines with a strong intelligence and strategy to use them but unfortunately fell short.

Tankor along with Thrust and Jetstorm were given the task to prove themselves to Gelorum by attacking the Digimon known as Omnimon. Jetstorm led the attack, stopping the train that Omnimon had been on and lured him out to be ambushed by Thrust and Tankor. The three Vehicons attacked the Digimon, forcing him to flee into the forest and even with the help of Shannon and Donatello the Vehicons eventually overpowered them. Fortunately Katz and the Devil Gundam arrived and drove the Vehicons off.

### Attack of the Hall of Justice

Gelorum reviewed the performance of the Vehicon Generals and was pleased, despite failing to eliminate Omnimon. She gave them a new mission: to attack the headquarters of the Justice Friends, the Hall of Heroes. Emerged through the portal in a Ruby ship that was taken in the hanger after the assistants of Control Freak and Psycrow to download everything about the Gems for the preparation of an attack in the Gem Homeworld with their armies of drones, the Vehicons marched through the portal from the Racing Drone HQ and took the Jutsice Friends by surprise. Tankor in Tank mode, confronted Artemis and Superboy during their battle with Jetstorm, using his cannon to shoot the archer down while chasing her through the gallery until he had her cornered. When he was about to finish her off, he was caught by surprise if a new attacker and fired his cannon at the coming wave, creating an explosion upon impact by their attacks, creating a distraction for Artemis to make her getaway. Shifting back into robot mode and was able to see through the smoke with his sensors to locate his target and fired at the mysterious opponent who quickly deployed a shield to protect himself from Tankor's attacks, Tankor roared in frustration and charged at his foe and punched the shield with enough force to released a burst of dark energy the knocked both of them out.

One of his drones follows the others into the Omega Vault to chase after the Crystal Gems and Johnny Bravo, it was about to attack the human, not realising he suddenly pulled out the mjolnir, the hammer of Thor and inadvertently destroyed. With the situation changed after Johnny became the new God of Thunder, he Vehicons Drines were ni Mach for his new strength and power, Jetstorm gave the order of a retreat, much ti Tankor’s displeasure of wanting to finish them off but followed back to base.

### Racing Realms

Tankor and the other generals lead the Racing Drone and Vehicon army under Gelorum's command to take over Hotwheel City while purueing Peter Tezla and prevent him from retrieving the Wheel of Power. Both he and Thrust joined RD-L1 to corner the injured professor after he fell from great heights of the tower but escaped using an EDR to transport him to safety. With the Wheel in the Drones' hands they now gain access to the pocket dimensions known as the Racing Realms and won an untold number of realms to gain powerful artifacts called Accelerchargers. After the events of the Storm Realm they found out about Tezla recruiting three teams of drivers: Teku, Metal Maniacs , and the Burners, and first lost to the Swamp Realm.

With Tankor leading the command of a squad of Tank Drones entering the Cavern Realm, he gained some advantage until the near end when transformed into robot mode to take out one of the drivers, he was suddenly sent flying by a surprised Texas. Hurtling out of the portal, he made a landing on both Thrust and Jetstorm.

Tankor went with the other Vehcions and RD-L1 to the Siberian Prison to retrieve Clovis Bray II who had some data of Gelorum's advance technology and brought back to base to be converted into a drone, recieved instructions from Gelorum of the recent finding of the Gem of Destruction, the order she gave them was to locate the Spiral Gems and prevent the leader of the Fallen, Sammael from finding them, or relocate to another area to delay his plans.

Tankor teams up with Jetstorm in the Metro Realm with the newly built Sweeper to capture the drivers with Accelerchargers, surprising the Burners and Teku with his Semblance but failed to destroy or capture them after he was slammed into a wall above the Sweeper with Jetstorm and once again landed on him after falling to road.
