After the events of the [[Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders|previous season]], he and [[Phantom Dharak|Dharak]] (now [[Razenoid]]) were imprisoned in the dark reverse dimension of [[Bakugan Interspace]], created by [[Code Eve]], and started to have a connection with [[Dan Kuso|Dan]] and [[Drago]] (from his [[Titanium Dragonoid|last evolution]]), who are also linked to [[Chaos Energy]] that spawn and free several robotic creatures called [[Mechtogan]].==Information==Mag Mel is the mysterious masked entity who haunts Dan's darkest dreams and often appears to him as a vision, especially during a battle. He uses [[Anubias]] and [[Sellon]] as his primary brawler servants.== Personality ==As the mutated form of former Gundalian Emperor Barodius, he remains the self-absorbed, power-hungry freak as before. After he came into contact with the [[Sacred Orb]], he wants to take the power of Dan's Gate and Key to surpass even [[Code Eve]] herself, though he fears Dan's power to allow Drago to evolve even further.Like before, he cares nothing for his subordinates, absorbing the lifeforce of and killing [[Anubias]] and [[Sellon]] the moment they lost their usefulness. Both he and Razenoid loathe being identified by their former identities due to their previous defeat and humiliation.==Biography=====Anime=======[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]====In all his appearances, prior to ''[[A Hero Returns]]'', he is seen next to [[Razenoid]], seated in a throne and they seem to be restrained by some sort of webbing.In ''[[Interspace Showdown]]'', he appears alongside Razenoid when Drago is battling and appears in Dan's nightmare, telling him to surrender Drago's powers to him so that he can be free. At the end of the episode he says "Dan and Drago have what I need. I need more energy ... I need more power!"In ''[[Mechtogan Mayhem]]'', he states that he and Razenoid are in captivity of some sort, as evident by the webing restraining them. Near the end of the episode Sellon informs him that Titanium Dragonoid "spawned" a Mechtogan, [[Zenthon]], surprising him. He then realizes that Drago was more powerful than he realized.In ''[[Fall From Grace]]'', he comments that the energy he needs from Titanium Dragonoid is starting to flow and orders his "Dark Servants", which are Razenoid's Chaos Bakugan, to awaken.In ''[[Tri-Twister Take Down]]'', Mag Mel tells Razenoid to spawn a couple of Chaos Bakugan for the first time, and he gives a [[Pyrus (Legacy)|Pyrus]], [[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]], and [[Haos (Legacy)|Haos]] [[Cyclone Percival]] to the [[Tri-Twisters]]. He tells them to battle more to give him what he needs. At the end of the episode, he says that even though they lost, his [[Chaos Bakugan]] performed well.In ''[[Agony of Defeat]]'', he and Razenoid appeared in a vision when Dan was battling Anubias. These visions caused Dan and Drago to mistake Anubias and [[Horridian]] for Mag Mel and Razenoid, causing them to lose control of their powers again and nearly kill Anubias. As a result, Mag Mel gained a lot of Chaos Energy from Titanium Dragonoid.In ''[[BakuNano Explosion]]'', he tells Razenoid to spawn more Chaos Bakugan and he gives a [[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]], [[Pyrus (Legacy)|Pyrus]] [[Flash Ingram]] and two [[BakuNano]]s called [[Shoxrox ]]to the [[Bash Brothers]]. He also ordered them to battle the Brawlers.In ''[[Return to New Vestroia]]'', he appears in [[Dan]] and Drago's vision and makes them pass out. He also finds out where they are with the closing comment "I can't believe that we found them in [[New Vestroia]] of all places!"In ''[[Chaos Control]]'', he makes Razenoid spawn Darkus [[Iron Dragonoid]] and he gave it to Anubias. He also gave him a new Mechtogan, [[Venexus]], as a gift and told him to go to New Vestroia to battle Dan and Drago. Later, when Titanium Dragonoid takes control of his powers, he and Razenoid lose their connection with Dan and Drago, leaving them to wonder how they did it. Mag Mel comments that both Dan and Drago have grown much since returning to New Vestroia, and they have more to offer him that he could possibly imagine.In ''[[A Royale Pain]]'', he appeared when [[Taylean]] spawned a Mechtogan, [[Silent Strike]], and absorbed all the Chaos Energy from the battle that they were in and he said that soon, they will be free.In ''[[Mind Search]]'', he saw [[Dan]], [[Titanium Dragonoid|Drago]], [[Wavern]], and [[Code Eve]]. He stated that he was pleased that Dan knew about him. He spoke to [[Razenoid]] and himself, talking about their connection to [[Code Eve]].In ''[[Re-connection]]'', he talked to Anubias and Sellon about the [[Switch Code]] and sent Sellon with a few Mechtogan to New Vestroia.In ''[[Triple Threat (Episode)|Triple Threat]]'', he stated that the energy from the battle between Dan and Sellon was incredible. He gleefully remarked that it was time to "Free us from these shackles".In ''[[Interspace Under Siege]]'', he was feeding on [[Noah]]'s fear as [[Chaos Energy]].In ''[[A Hero Returns]]'', he is freed from his prison and starts by attacking [[Gundalia]].In ''[[Gundalia Under Fire]]'', he met the [[Battle Brawlers|Brawlers]] face-to-face for the first time, battling Dan in Gundalia and winning.In ''[[Battle Lines]]'', he tried to convince Dan to go after him, but was interrupted by Shun.In ''[[Unlocking the Gate]]'', his Gundalian castle was destroyed. He lost against Dan in a rematch.In'' [[Dangerous Beauty]]'', he sends Sellon to retrieve Dan's key and was shown in a flashback, punishing her for her failures. After she gives him the Key, he kills Sellon, using the last of her energy as a power boost.in ''[[Unfinished Business]]'', he wanted to take Dan's portion of [[Code Eve]] during his battle with [[Anubias]]. After that, he killed Anubias during the battle and absorbed the last of his energy.In ''[[Behind the Mask]]'', he explains to Dan that he used the him to gain enough power to break free from Code Eve's prison. He then fought against Dan, Titanium Dragonoid, Zenthon and Zenthon Titan alongside Razenoid, Dreadeon and Razen Titan. It was revealed that he wants to attack Earth and that he is actually [[Barodius]].In ''[[Dark Moon]]'', he appears with Evolved Razenoid and sends different attributed Razen Titan clones to blow up the [[Earth]] from inside and do the same thing to [[Gundalia]], [[Neathia]], [[Vestal]] and [[New Vestroia]].In ''[[The Final Takedown]]'', he battled Dan and Titanium Dragonoid, who evolved into Fusion Dragonoid, and ending up losing once again after Dan taunts Mag Mel by calling his real name Barodius. Dan and Drago successfully escaped from the dark moon and returned to Earth, thus, Mag Mel and Razenoid were defeated for good.==Bakugan=====Anime=======Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge====*[[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]] [[Razenoid]] ([[Guardian Bakugan]])**Darkus [[Evolved Razenoid]] (Evolved Guardian) (Deceased)*Darkus [[Dreadeon]] ([[Mechtogan]]) (Deceased)**Darkus Dreadeon (Clones) (Deceased)*Darkus [[Razen Titan]] ([[Mechtogan Titan]]) (Deceased)**Pyrus, Aquos, Haos, Ventus, Subterra and Darkus Razen Titan (Clones) (Deceased)*Pyrus, Aquos, Haos, Ventus, Subterra, and Darkus [[Iron Dragonoid]] (Deceased)*Pyrus, Aquos, Haos, Ventus, Subterra, and Darkus [[Flash Ingram]] (Deceased)* Pyrus, Aquos, Haos, Ventus, Subterra, and Darkus [[Cyclone Percival]] (Deceased)=====Bakugan Given to Anubias and Sellon=====*[[Pyrus (Legacy)|Pyrus]] [[Bolcanon]] (Deceased)*[[Aquos (Legacy)|Aquos]] [[Krakenoid]] (Deceased)*[[Haos (Legacy)|Haos]] [[Krowll]] (Deceased)*[[Ventus (Legacy)|Ventus]] [[Spyron]] (Deceased)*[[Subterra]] [[Vertexx]] (Deceased)*[[Darkus (Legacy)|Darkus]] [[Horridian]] (Deceased)*Pyrus [[Deezall]] (Second Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Aquos [[Venexus]] (Third Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Ventus [[Braxion]] (Fourth Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Subterra [[Rockfist]] (Fifth Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Haos [[Miserak]] (Sixth Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Darkus [[Smasheon]] (Seventh Mechtogan) (Deceased)*Aquos [[Venexus Titan]] (Second Mechtogan Titan) (Deceased)*Aquos/Haos hybrid [[Mutant Krakenoid]] (Deceased)*Haos/Aquos hybrid[[ Mutant Krowll]] (Deceased)==Trivia==*His name appears to originate from an Irish version of heaven [[wikipedia:en:Mag Mell|with a similar title]].
