Anime Biography[]
Fang Slade Terrestrial XIII is the Chief of the Drum clan. He is known as one of the greatest leaders of the Drum clan. When conflicts were common in Dragon World, he destroyed all 6 kingdoms. When Drum was a kid, he took his Drill without his permission, causing him to be sent to Discipline Boot Camp for a month as punishment.
One day he tells his son that he will eventually inherit his throne, but before that he must change his stubborn ways. For that, he must go to Earth and find a Buddy. However he states that whoever his Buddy chooses must not be a perfect human, instead, it should be someone who defies common sense.
When Drum returns to Dragon World to train due to feeling weak, Fang Slade appears taking care of many baby Armordragons and literally kicks Drum to Dungeon World as part of his training. Drum returns shortly having learned a lot on his short time in Dungeon World, but he just kicks him away again by encourages him to train hard, probably into either Magic World or to the Thunder Knights training grounds.
He appears again on Earth to the Mikado residence. Takashi was startled at first due to his size and appearance. Gao's friends found him scary and was shocked that he was about to eat all of their food from the party. He then was part of a Buddyfight. During the Buddyfight, he made Gao and Drum realize their weaknesses and potential. Drum then dismantles his Drill and touched the core, which causes him to evolve into a Super Armordragon. He then watches the Gaen Cup with Takashi on the next day.
