An evil cult named "Gorgom", consisting of [[Two Guys and a Girl]] in white capes and robes: Darom, Baraom and Bishium. They intend to choose a new boss- known as the Creation King- by capturing two chosen humans, implanting them with two [[Artifact of Doom|powerful artifacts]] called Kingstones, and having them [[There Can Be Only One|fight to the death]]. The winner will become the new Creation King, and together with Gorgom they'll [[Take Over the World]]. |
