Biography
Exodia was summoned by the Sacred Guardians, shortly after the forging of the Millennium Items. It, along with other ka, was used to defend Aknamkanon's kingdom from armies of foreign invaders.[1] Legends said that it defeated a thousand soldiers in a single night. Shimon was cautious of its power, so he sealed Exodia.[2]
During the battle against Zorc Necrophades, Shimon recovered the Millennium Key, that he had once given to Shada, from Shada's deceased body and used its power to Summon Exodia. Exodia began to grapple with Zorc and ripped off one of his arms. However Zorc regenerated the arm and commented that it was useless,. The battled continued and Zorc ripped off one of Exodia's arms. Shimon claimed that Exodia also regenerated its arm. (The scenes of limb removal are cut from the dub.) Zorc drew strength from the power of darkness, whereas Exodia drew from the life force of a single human. Shimon got Exodia to launch its attack at Zorc, but managed to endure it. Zorc fought back with a "Dark Phenomenon" attack, splitting Exodia down the middle. Its destruction drained Shimon's life force, killing him.[2]
