'''Hades''' (ハデス Hadesu) is the unexpected main antagonist of ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. He is the god and master of the [[Underworld]], and is responsible for [[Medusa]]'s revival, which originally set the events of the game in motion. Medusa was revived to use as a distraction against [[Pit]], while Hades was busy gathering souls of the human race in order to store them within his realm. He accomplished this by using lies to turn different nations against each other, causing war to break out.

In [[The Wish Seed|Chapter 10]], it is revealed that Hades created the legend of the [[Wish Seed]] in order to make humans fight amongst each other which led [[Viridi]], the goddess of nature to destroy them for their hubris. This was all part of his plan to collect the souls of all the countless human soldiers. This soon leads him into conflict with the [[Forces of Nature]] and [[Palutena]]'s forces.

In [[Mysterious Invaders|Chapter 15]], the Underworld forces and Viridi's Forces of Nature have to work together in order to destroy the [[Aurum]] fleet, but after this threat has passed the Angels and the Forces of Nature return to teaming up against Hades's forces.

In [[Scorched Feathers|Chapter 22]], Hades is revealed to be using the souls of the humans he captures in order to replicate underworld monsters. This in and of itself is thought of as bad, but it is later revealed that it takes many hundreds of souls to create a single monster, wasting them entirely. This is seen as a disturbance in the balance and something that must be corrected.

In [[Lord of the Underworld|Chapter 23]], Pit, armed with the [[Three Sacred Treasures]] finally confronts Hades, but Hades easily destroys the Three Sacred Treasures with a single blast of his "raunchy breath" and ends up swallowing Pit whole. According to the idol description of Hades' Belly, Pit is actually transported to another realm and is not really inside of Hades. Pit struggles to escape Hades' twisted insides and soon manages to destroy [[Heart of Hades|Hades' heart]] in an explosion, allowing [[Dark Pit]] to see Pit's location and rescue him with the [[Lightning Chariot]]. However Hades remains unfazed despite his heart's destruction.

Pit later confronts him in [[The War's End|Chapter 25]] with the [[Great Sacred Treasure]], battling and pursuing Hades using it to destroy various guns that cover Hades's body. The Great Sacred Treasure changes forms as it is damaged, it's third form cuts Hades in half but he simply respawns his lower half and continues to fight Pit. Eventually he manages to destroy the Great Sacred Treasure as well. As Hades charges up his most powerful attack, Palutena tells Pit that a force (aka Medusa) is seeking Hades and Pit must guide this force. As Hades' is about to release his attack, Medusa suddenly appears and distracts him with a blindsiding blow.

All that remains of the Great Sacred Treasure is a single cannon which Pit mounts on his arm, and Pit must avoid a final assault from Hades while Palutena charges the gun with holy energy. When the gun reached its maximum charge, Pit fired the canon, unleashing devastating blast which destroyed Hades once and for all, bringing peace once more to the [[Angel Land]] and all its inhabitants.
