- ―Final words before death
Destra Majjo (デストラ・マッジョ Desutora Majjo) was the former bodyguard of Dogranio Yaboon who was both smart and powerful.
Character History
Destra Majjo was accompanying his boss Dogranio Yaboon when he seized the Lupin Collection, an assembly of immensely powerful items collected by the legendary thief Arsène Lupin.
Arriving in the Gangler mansion with Yaboon, he needs to physically restrained the gang members and physician Goche Ru Medou to wish Dogranio a happy 999th birthday. TV STORY-Number 1: The Troublemaking Phantom Thieves
Standing by his boss, Destra witnessed the destruction of Garatt Nargo. TV STORY-Number 2: International Police, Chase After Them
Witnessing Namero Bacho sculpt a statue of Dogranio, Destra disputed Goche's favoring his blatant method only for Dogranio to share her sentiment. To their shock, the statue was later destroyed in Namero's battle with PatKaiser, leaving only the feet. TV STORY-Number 3: Take Them Back No Matter What
When Goche asked Dogranio to purchase some of the human subjects acquired by Rabroom Jaws for her, Destra scornfully told her to buy her own. Dogranio, however, abided as such trades were part of running a gang. TV STORY-Number 4: Unacceptable Relationship
Growing curious about the Lupin Collection, Destra realized that there was some difference between the treasures possessed by the Gangler with that of the humans. Learning from an informant that the GSPO was transporting two pieces to their Japan Branch, Destra sought to investigate them and so summoned his old henchman Bundorute Peggy to intercept them behind Dogranio's back. When confronted by Goche on the matter, Destra divulged his plan and scoffed at the thought he could betray his master. However, the two pieces, Cyclone Dial Fighter and Trigger Machine Biker, fell into the possession of Patren 1gou and Lupin Red respectively, at which point Destra came to Earth to confront Peggy for his failure before engaging the remaining Patrangers 2gou and 3gou with Lupinrangers Blue and Yellow. Though easily a match for all four of them, Destra found that his opportunity was lost as Peggy had abandoned him while Lupin Red made off with both Collection pieces. Before returning to the Back World, Destra summoned a giant Goram to reclaim the pieces. TV STORY-Number 5: Targeted, the International Police
Personality
He seems to take his job as Dogranio's bodyguard very seriously and is very loyal to him, to the point of casting away his personal pride to not disappoint his boss's expectations and not letting anyone get to close to him, and only doing so when Dogranio tells him it's alright. He also has a mutually antagonistic view of Goche, getting visibly angry with her when she requests things from Dogranio, scowling at her when she rubs his failures in his face.
But, from the other side Destra really interested in Lupin Collection. He is trying to understand the difference between Gangler and human pieces, he manages to find out and even uses Human pieces as last resort, in form of Victory and Siren Striker with Goche's assistance. Dogranio in return also views Destra as the best 'right hand' ever and silently mourns his death.
