Dark Lord Gaol: Difference between revisions

'''Dark Lord Gaol''' (ダークロードガオル ''Daaku Roodo Gaoru'', known in Japan as "Demon King Gainas" 魔王ガイナス ''Maou Gainasu'') is a brand new antagonist introduced in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. Initially believed to be a man under the armor, Gaol is revealed to actually be female early in the game. She appears to be a dark, knight-like character that speaks in an evil and distorted voice and serves as the boss of [[Magnus and the Dark Lord|''Magnus and the Dark Lord'']]. It is shown that Gaol lives in a dreary [[Gaol's Castle|castle]]. Upon meeting [[Pit]] for the first time, Gaol doesn't seem to be intimidated by him at all, referring to him as "Palutena's little messenger boy."

 

Dark Lord Gaol is first fought as a boss in ''[[Magnus and the Dark Lord]]'', with [[Magnus]] helping Pit. During the conversation when the boss fight pursues, Palutena reveals that Gaol is a close friend of Magnus much to Pit's disbelief. After Gaol's defeat, it is also revealed that the Underworld commander is actually a human and female. Gaol is seen motionless but still breathing, indicating she is alive and well. Gaol is not seen again until ''[[The Three Trials]]'', and she wears her cursed armor but her voice is back to normal (so the curse seems to have uplifted from earlier). This time, she teams up with Magnus and fights Pit as a part of [[Dyntos]]'s trial. After her second defeat, both Gaol and Magnus disappear from the scene and is never seen again during the game.
