The Rank

The Rank is a group of villains led by Dragon Lord. They were trapped for thousands of years in a magical glass. Dragon Lord used a fireball to break free, which defeated Chung I. The Rank then came to the human world. They set up their base outside New York City.

They are afraid of remote-controlled airplanes, apes, and shinobi magic.

Dragon Lord

Dragon Lord is the main villain and leader of The Rank. He was the first evil dragon. His strong personality led other dragons to join him. This caused his whole dragon race to be banished.

Dragon Lord looks a bit like Genghis Khan with a ponytail and a red coat. He wants to eat the turtles because he believes it will make him an "all-powerful dragon deity." He can be cruel but also has a sense of humor.

Wick

Wick is Dragon Lord's sidekick. He is often very confident. Wick usually avoids fighting. He sometimes argues with Dragon Lord. If Dragon Lord yells at him, Wick might cry.

Rank Lieutenant

Rank Lieutenant leads Dragon Lord's army. You can spot him by his violet hood. He often leads missions to capture the turtles. However, he usually fails. This is often because of the turtles, or sometimes apes, or even remote-controlled airplanes.

Dr. Cornelius Quease

Dr. Cornelius Quease is a famous scientist. Dragon Lord kidnapped him to help capture the turtles. But Dr. Quease became friends with Donatello. Donatello often stops Quease from doing bad things.

Dr. Quease has a difficult relationship with Dragon Lord and The Rank. He often fails to capture the turtles, which makes Dragon Lord angry. He also doesn't like Wick. Dragon Lord calls him a "master of the new magic," meaning science.

Simon Bonesteel

Simon Bonesteel is a bounty hunter who constantly hunts the turtles. He is very strategic. He even gives his weapons female names, like Susanna the Whip. He talks to himself a lot.

Bonesteel considers the turtles an endangered species because there are only five of them. Donatello believes Bonesteel has a paranoid personality. He can be tricked with clever words.

Silver

Silver is the last of the Yetis from the Himalayas. Instead of living on the mountain, he became a crime boss. He leads a gang of humans who think he is very smart. He can't spell well, but he is more sophisticated than his henchmen.

He once brainwashed Donatello to steal for him. But Raphael and Silver accidentally said the hypnosis word, banana, too many times. This confused Donnie, who then stopped Silver.

The UnKnowables

Heavy Duke leads The UnKnowables. They are a gang who crash parties in their neighborhood. They once tried to steal a boombox. They also tried to crash a rave held by Michelangelo.

They were tricked by Simon Bonesteel into trying to capture the turtles for money. However, the turtles quickly defeated the gang.

Vam-Mi

Vam-Mi is a 10,000-year-old female vampire from China. She was defeated long ago by Chung I, who removed her heart. This put her into a long sleep. Her helpers, Bing and Chi Chu, used a magic potion to wake her up.

However, her heart needed to be returned within 96 hours, or she would turn into sludge. The turtles used her link to her heart to set a trap. They exposed her to sunlight, which turned her to dust. Bing and Chi Chu collected her ashes but decided not to revive her again.

Bing

Bing is a male vampire and one of Vam-Mi's helpers. He looks like a child.

Chi Chu

Chi Chu is a female vampire and one of Vam-Mi's helpers. She also looks like a child.
