"Meklord", known as
"Machine Imperial" (
Kikō) in the
OCG and anime up until
episode 103, are an anti-
Synchro archetype used by the three main villains of the third arc of the
Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime: the
Three Pure Nobles and their combined form,
Aporia. The archetype is split into several groups: "
Meklord Emperor", "Meklord Astro", and "
Meklord Army". The component pieces of the "Meklord Emperors" are also represented in the "
Wisel", "
Skiel", "
Granel" and "
Attack" archetypes.
Aporia was a survivor of the
Meklord Emperor Genocide, and a member of the
Iliaster's Four Stars of Destruction. After Aporia's natural death,
three androids based on the different stages of Aporia's lives, named
Jakob,
Primo and
Lester, were created by
Z-one and sent to the past to change the future at all costs. Eventually the androids merged together to form a fourth android with the memories and personality of the original Aporia. He would stop at nothing to make sure his mission was carried out. He was defeated by Z-one after he had a change of heart and tried to stop him from destroying the future. Before his death he combined his
Duel Disk with the
Yusei Go ahead of Yusei's battle with Z-one.
