This article is about a villain in Himitsu Sentai Gorenger. |
Commander-in-Chief Golden Mask (ゴールデン仮面大将軍 Gōruden Kamen Daishōgun) is the final general and the Black Cross Army's top general. He is a supernatural entity that was mystically awoken in through Black Magic and the Black Cross Fuhrer's powers.
History[]
After multiple failures from Volcano Mask General Magman, Black Cross Fuhrer made plans to set up Golden Mask as his next commander, which occurred after Magman was destroyed. Golden Mask was, like his predecessors, fiercely loyal to his leader.
When he looked at the constellations, he warned Black Cross Fuhrer not to engage the Gorengers, because the stars were not in his favor. Ironically, this made the Black Cross leader defiant of destiny, and engage in the fight against the heroes. After Black Cross Fuhrer was disabled by the stars, Golden Mask had him taken to safety and he took on the Gorenger personally. Though the fight seemed like an easy victory for the Gorengers as they destroyed Golden Mask, he told them, in his dying words, he would not be gone but scattered in the wind, as he dissolved into golden dust.
Legacy[]
True to his word, the loyal commander's soul survived, using the dust of his body to create a golden rainbow. This rainbow pinpointed the general area of the Gorenger's base, leading the Black Cross Army directly to Snack Gon and destroyed it, though the Gorengers and their allies and vehicles survived for one final battle.
Personality[]
He took over Magman's role after Magman was defeated by the Gorengers. He is from Africa, resembling a pharaoh and has plenty of Egyptian references to his own personality, hideouts, and vehicles. He took command of the army's elite African/Egyptian Troopers. Versed in sorcery and keenly interested in astrology. He could repel most of Gorengers' attacks and was near invincible. He was so fiercely loyal to the Black Cross Fuhrer that he sacrificed his own life to reveal the location of the Gorengers' headquarters, turning himself into a rainbow of gold dust. He also appeared in the 'Bomb Hurricane'

Notes[]
- He had the largest number of minions compared with the previous three commanders.
- Not to be confused with Gold Mask, the first Black Cross minion.
- Golden Mask is frequently accompanied by two unique Zolders wearing heavier armor and wielding shields and poleaxes. The pair outlive their commander and continue fighting for Black Cross Fuhrer, until they are killed during the final battle when they are tricked into axing each other.
