Hades

Hades (ハデス, ᾍδης) is a mythological god of the underworld and the brother of Zeus.

Role in Games
In the main storyline, Hades first appears in a climactic showdown at Changshan at the end of Chapter 6. He appears as Odin relentlessly summons horrors and phantom versions of Zhang Jiao, Musashi Miyamoto and Kojiro Sasaki. Upon Hades appearance, he gets rid of the phantoms almost instantly and summons his own monsters, forming a defensive line around the besieged main camp and greets Zeus who comments how Hades looks so young despite him being the elder brother. Hades appearance intimidates to the point that once his attacking forces have all been defeated, he retreats from the battle entirely instead of advancing from his main camp. The rest of the main story route has him, Gaia and Yang Jian all be key players in bringing down Odin who they eventually do so at the tree of Yggdrasil.

There is also a second storyline where Hades instead turns evil. When at Yggdrasil, once the coalition fights Odin, he appears with his forces and surrounds the coalition army. The coalition army then help Odin escape from the trap and they form an uneasy alliance to fight off this new threat. They are relentlessly pursued across many battlefields by Hades, who summons phantoms and horrors. At Ueda Castle, Hades is fighting Cao Pi and Mitsunari Ishida at the same time, who despite being deified are still no match for the unleashed might of Hades. However, Yang Jian then deifies himself and fights Hades allowing the coaliiton to regroup for a final showdown with Hades. They return to Yggrasil and though they defeat Hades a first time, he reveals that he has built an underground castle which he will rule over life and death. The coalition then fight through phantoms once again and defeat Hades a second time. He returns outside his palace and in a last ditch effort, summons Orochi and Orochi X to protect him. After they both fall, Hades' dark grip is weakened enough for him to succumb to a final defeat. Afterwards, the world's power is failing and the heroes are sent back to their timeline as thanks.

Personality
Despite his intimidating appearance, Hades is quite affable towards gods and humans alike.
