Rukus is a Legends of Chima character who appears in the animated series. He is a member of the Rhinoceros tribe.
Description[edit | edit source]
Runk has light grey skin and wears blue trousers and a large Chi harness over his stomach supported by chains hanging from his shoulder.
Background[edit | edit source]
Runk and Rukus accompanied Rogon to retrieve their Chi at the distribution following the first battle at the lion city. On their way home, they encountered Gorzan in the Great Forest who ordered them to take a detour due to a flower in the middle of the road. At first the rhinos were reluctant, but eventually agreed only to become lost in the forest. ("The Warrior Within")
Runk and Rukus were in the midst of a fight when Lagravis arrived at the Rhino Quarry seeking a peace treaty. When the lion king broke up the fight, the two rhinos explained that they only fought when they were happy. ("The Joyride")
Runk and Rukus were present when Wilhurt came to warn Rogon of the hundred year moon phenomenon. ("The Hundred Year Moon")
At one of the market days soon after the start of the civil war, Runk and Rukus traded Razar three rhino speedorz for a box of nothing. ("Market Day")
A while later, Rukus and some of the other rhinos were carrying Chi across the Grand Archway when the black cloud came through and grabbed their Chi, leaving behind the sleeping Bladvic. He later helped the other tribes defend Mount Cavora from the black cloud. ("The Black Cloud")
When the lions, wolves, rhinos, and eagles marched to the crocodile swamp to face the Hunters for the first time, Runk and Rukus accompanied them on rhino bikes. They were frozen early on in the battle, yet managed to escape. ("Attack of the Ice Clan")
Rukus helped the other Chima tribes to ambush the Hunters with rocks when they entered a canyon. When Cragger ordered a retreat, Rukus, Rogon, and Runk threw rocks at Sir Fangar, but ran away before he could free them. ("The Call of Cavora")
Following the destruction of the ice fortress, Rogon, Rukus, and Runk helped search the land for any signs of the Hunters. ("The Artifact")
In Laval's Journey[edit | edit source]
The Wolves take Runk and Rukus with them when they go and attack Eagle Spire as the prophecy of the Triple Chi Armor spoke of the necessity of having an eagle, rhino, and wolve to unlock the chest armor. In the hub, he can be found in the rhino quarry where he requests a dumbbell.
In Legends of Chima Online[edit | edit source]
Runk and Rukus are tasked by the crocs with guarding Reegull until they are defeated by the Commander and Elida. Later while under the control of the raven alchemist, they are sent to retrieve one of the Tears of Cavora, but are once again defeated.
Laval's Journey Descrption[edit | edit source]
This is a description taken from LEGO.com. Please do not modify it. Rukus and his best buddy Runk are big, beefy, bumbling Rhinos who love to boast that they have "double the muscle" when they're together. The truth is: they also have "half the brain".
Notes[edit | edit source]
