Kreel is a citizen of the Crossroads and owner of Kreel and Lobbo's Junkyard. She is a mech racer with a crew of Whack Rats.

History

Early life

During the time after the Merge, she befriended the Whack Rats, becoming close to one, in particular named Targle.

Prior to Dragons Rising, Season 1

Unfortunately, Targle ended up kidnapped by Dorama, who intended to use his life energy for his fireworks display for the upcoming Crossroads Carnival, and demanded a ransom from Kreel for his release. Because of this, she entered the Mech Master 5000, intending to use the prize money to pay for the ransom.

Dragons Rising, Season 1

The Merge: Part 1

Kreel with Arin and Sora before the race

On the day of the race, she mocks Arin and Sora on their repeated racing failures before they leave to grab more components, and Kreel has a Whack Rat sabotage their racer. During the race, Kreel takes out a few racers, until she, and Arin and Sora's racers reach for the finish line, until a blast, caused by Riyu's escape attempt, knocks some debris into her, knocking her down, leaving her pinned down as another rival racer, Lobbo, passes by and wins the race.

Crossroads Carnival

Kreel reunites with Targle

Still determined to get the money which she believed is hers all along, Kreel has the Whack Rats kidnap Lobbo and demands the money, but he immediately swallows it to prevent her before Arin and Sora, who witnessed the kidnapping, arrive. She soon admits how she did it for Targle before Arin and Sora vow to rescue him. While waiting, Kreel and Lobbo make conversations while eating moss-milk ice cones, until Lloyd, Arin, and Sora return with Targle.

Prior to Wyldly Inappropriate

At one point, Kreel engaged in a lice game with the original proprietor of the Crossroads junkyard. Kreel emerged victorious, thereby assuming ownership of the dilapidated yard and subsequently rechristening it as "Kreel's Junkyard."

Wyldly Inappropriate

Kreel upset that Zane doesn't have the funds to purchase a wyconium coil

Alfonzo Frohicky and a disguised Zane came across Kreel, who questioned the identity of Frohicky's companion but soon disregarded it. Zane then explained their requirement for a wyconium coil. Kreel, being well-versed with wyconium, offered to procure a coil but requested payment in exchange. Regrettably, Zane confessed to not possessing the requisite funds, leading to the both of them thrown out.

The Power Within

What the Mech?

Kreel making advertisements of dangerous items

Kreel advertises many dangerous items she got her hands on, including Chronosteel, which she tried to pass off as harmless before Kai, Cole, Arin, and Sora show up to confiscate them, she tried to deny their dangers, until Lobbo mutated upon touching a dangerous artefact. After Sora used some Chronosteel to make three mech for herself, Kai, and Cole, and turning Lobbo back to normal, Kreel attempted to take the artefacts away, but was prevented by Cole, who confiscates it.

Dragons Rising, Season 2

The Blood Moon

Kreel taking a selfie with Arin and Sora

Kreel ends up having her junkyard easily broken into by Cinder, who was looking for the Mallet of shattering, due to the security bots being overridden and her dogs practically not ferocious enough, and called Arin, Sora, and Riyu about the break in. Since nothing was taken, they find it hard to believe her, until she tells them that many stalls around the Crossroads had the same problem before she has them take a selfie with her, claiming she is friends with them.

Arin and Sora

Kreel with Arin and Sora

Arin and Sora were Kreel's rivals, Kreel's rivalry began during the Mech Master 5000 which Kreel entered in order to pay the ransom that Dorama had ordered in order to free Targle. Eventually, they came to a compromise and after Arin and Sora rescued Targle, Kreel was extremely grateful and embraced Targle with a hug. When Cinder broke into her junkyard, they were the first people she could think of to call and tells them how others suffered the same problem as her junkyard before having them take a selfie with her.
