William McLaughlin claims that he was an adventurer who accidentally stumbled upon the ruins of the Sanctuary of Light, former home of the Followers of the Light, creators of the Shogun Warrior robots. Inside he learned all about the organization and how they constructed three robots and gave them to Genji Odashu, Ilongo Savage and Richard Carson, who were heroes at the time. McLauighlin later discovered a fourth unfinished robot and used spare parts to complete it. Calling his robot the Samurai Destroyer, he then set about to use the robot for his own personal gain.
