Biography
After hearing that Nett of ONBS has an important data rom of Cipher's next plans, Exol led an ambush onto ONBS to retrieve it. Exol eventually reached Nett's office and demands for him to hand over the data rom. Even after Michael makes it to the office, Exol managed to force Nett to hand over the data rom by threathening to harm his younger sister. Exol then battles Michael but loses in the process. However, Exol still says that victory belongs to Cipher as he managed to get the other Cipher Peons to erase all trace of their plans. Exol then leaves OBNS with the rest of Cipher having accomplished a mission.

As a Cipher Commander, Exol has full authority of Cipher and only answers to the leader and the Cipher Admins themselves.
