Biography
The human Tyran had discovered a mystical artifact known as the Black Pearl that he intended to take to his compatriots at the ruins of Manhat. Upon learning of this, Gemini had his servants in the Groundlings to intercept the courier and acquire the relic. The Groundlings succeeded in capturing Tyran but were attacked by Thundarr, Ariel and Ookla forcing the rat-men to flee. They later reported their failure to Gemini who was angered by their inability to accomplish their task. He, however, gifted them with energy weapons and motorcycles where they were told not to fail otherwise the would suffer the consequences. Despite their new aids, the Groundlings once again failed to which Gemini stated he would punish them for at a later time. At this point, he decided to personally lead the recovery of the Black Pearl alongside his robotic Knights that took a helicopter to Manhat. Once there, they captured Ariel but Gemini failed to get the mystical artifact as it protected Thundarr from his magic. With Ariel as a hostage, Gemini departed and told Thundarr to give him the relic otherwise he would not see Ariel again. Thundarr and Ookla later stormed his fortress situated not far from Manhat through the captured helicopter. During the confrontation with Thundarr, Ariel used the distraction to cast a spell that caused the wizard's visor to lock on his face preventing him from seeing. This allowed Thundarr to escape with Ariel and Ookla on horse back to Manhat but a vengeful Gemini pursued them whilst afloat on a thundercloud. He demanded the Black Pearl once more otherwise the human commune at Manhat would be destroyed. The community refused Gemini's demands and he enchanted the Statue of Liberty to attack his enemies where magical flames formed on its torch that it directed at its enemies. Thundarr, Ariel and Ookla were powerless against the giant statue until the barbarian thought that the enchanted statues weakness was magic. Thus, Thundarr took the Black Pearl and through it at the statue where it embedded within the stone neutralizing the magic on it. This strike both hurt Gemini banishing back to his fortress and removed the magic over the Statue of Liberty turning it back into an inanimate structure once more that stood tall over the ruined city of Manhat.
Overview
Personality and attributes
He did not tolerate failure and grew angry at those that had disappointed him in fulfilling the tasks he had assigned them. After the Groundlings failed in acquiring the Black Pearl, Gemini offered them a second chance and told them a further failure meant that their people would suffer a terrible price.
Powers and abilities
As a wizard, he had a wide range of powers of mystical origins that he could employ on the battlefield. He could use them to animate statues and empower them with abilities. Gemini was able to float also in the clouds high in the sky. Though powerful, his magic was vulnerable and impotent against some relics such as the Black Pearl that could neutralize his enchantments.
He had an army of robotic Knights under his command that served him loyally. These machines were armed with energy weapons and also made use of ancient technology that Gemini had in his possession such as helicopters. Similarly, he equipped those servants that allied with him with such weapons and technology like the Groundlings.
