- History


First Appearance, Episode 1

Art colored in from official concept art.

When Nero first showed up, traveling with Bianco, he was irritated to find Blu, a fellow gang member, chasing some poor kid through the desert with his recently-acquired Guysack. Putting a Zoid against a child isn't exactly a fair fight, after all. When the Guysack pilot inevitably messed up and got himself trapped under some rubble, they went to dig him out. Of course, he just ended up attacking Bang again. The next time they saw him his Guysack was being flung from the ruin as a silver Organoid darted past them. To their shock, the small Zoid fused to an abandoned Shield Liger that had, only moments ago, been an absolute wreck. Now the Zoid was in perfect condition, and though they tried to fight the Shield Liger was too fast, and defeated both Command Wolves.


Organoid Capture Attempt, Episode 4

Bianco and Nero both joined Rosso in trying to capture Bang's Organoid. Their Command Wolves had the Shield Liger cornered until it made a break for it, then detonated the underground aquifers, disabling both their Command Wolves and the Red Horn.


Disbanding, Episode 8

After the Desert Arcobaleno Gang got left taking the blame for an attack at Red River that they'd been hired by the Empire to do in the first place, the gang leader, Rosso, decided that getting Bang's Organoid was the only way to get them out of the situation. Nero joined Blu, Bianco, and Verde in capturing two members of their group, Bang and Moonbay. Unfortunately they failed to capture Sieg, and when the Empire interrupted the subsequent battle, Rosso disbanded the gang. He didn't want them to take the fall for the failure at Red River, so he gave them all a chance to escape.
