History

Early Life

Nothing is known about Nexus' past, other than the fact he is the central figure of the legion.

Animated Films

Turbo-Charged

After obtaining samples of Maxwell McGrath's T.U.R.B.O. power, Terrorax contacts lord Nexus to inform the progress of his mission. Using a machine to synthesize their own Terror Energy, Terrorax requests Nexus' permission to carry on with their mission, of which he allows.

After Terrorax's battle with Max Steel, the former contacts Nexus, who scolds him for underestimating the hero's tenacity. He presents the solution to their problems: a trio of deadly super-powered warriors named Team Terror.

Following Terrorax's defeat at the hands of Max Steel, the Nexus operatives recover his emaciated body. Nexus claims that the initial test was "less than successful" and commands his allies to initiate the bio-restoration protocols. Terrorax promises he'd rise again, and once he did, there would be war.

Turbo-Warriors

Terrorax talks with Nexus.

After stealing the Terror energy generator, Terrorax contacts Nexus, claiming that the world would be finally theirs. Nexus, on the other hand, does not believe him. Prometheus proceeds to charge himself with Terror energy, recovering his powers and shouting the Nexus legion's battle cry alongside Team Terror and the Elementors.

Etymology

In Latin, the word nexus means connection, link or bond. The Nexus' legion's motto ("We're legion, We're One, We're Nexus!") makes an allusion to this concept.

1/2

Nexus has a humanoid appearance with a skinny and tall build, being possibly the largest member of his cloaked allies. He has brown eyes, large fingers and apparently does not have hair nor eyebrows. He wears a black cloak that conceals his true appearance.

Personality

Not much is known about Nexus' personality, other than the fact he wishes to deprive humanity's access to technology. According to Terrorax, Nexus' plans consists of permanently deactivating technology and establishing a new world order. As such, this would create a new "primitive era" where people would be forced to join the legion. Terrorax's speeches seemingly imply Nexus to be a knowledgeable individual. Additionally, he doesn't tolerates it when his allies fail him.

Relationships

Terrorax

Terrorax is one of Nexus' allies. According to Prometheus, he had never failed the legion. Following his defeat at the hands of Max Steel in Turbo-Charged, Nexus no longer believes in Terrorax's promises about world conquest.

Cloaked Figures

Like other Nexus agents, they highly respect Nexus.
