Linehalt, a dragon-like Darkus Bakugan, was forged as a guardian of the Sacred Orbs to maintain equilibrium between the rival factions of Gundalia and Neathia. Crafted by ancient Gundalian and Neathian scientists to deter either side from exploiting the Orbs’ power, he grew disillusioned as distrust fractured their alliance. Questioning his purpose, he withdrew into isolation, sealing himself in dormancy to escape their ceaseless wars.

Rediscovered centuries later, Linehalt’s dormant form is awakened by a human partner, forging a bond that challenges his hardened skepticism. Though initially aloof and resistant to alliances, he learns trust through shared battles, confronting his conflicted history with the factions he once mediated. His evolution from detached observer to committed protector reflects a renewed conviction in unity over solitude, driving him to actively safeguard the Orbs.

Linehalt wields dark energy to conjure defensive barriers and unleash devastating strikes like the Void Blaster. His powers evolve alongside his strategic and emotional growth, mirroring his journey from enforcer of balance to autonomous guardian. Central to his story is grappling with his origins as an instrument of balance and his desire for autonomy, culminating in his choice to defend both Gundalia and Neathia despite their legacies of conflict.
