Thanatos, not to be confused with the serpentine Tanatos, is the God of Death and a new villain introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising. He was first revealed on a poster for one of three upcoming Kid Icarus Anime shorts. Not much is known about him, although it seems that he will play a role in the game itself since his artwork has appeared on an official AR Card.
Description
From what has been revealed so far, Thanatos somewhat resembles a pirate with a green skin tone and fish-like characteristics (although based on a translation, it is suggested that he might actually be a genie). He has two red eyes with cross-shaped pupils, as well as a large, smiling mouth with blue lips and two fangs. He also has a short, stubby nose and a skull ornament at the tip of his head. Thanatos seemingly wears silver shoulder armor, a red scarf, a brown shirt with striped sleeves, and a pair of large, pirate-like trousers also decorated with yellow and red stripes. In addition, the armor on his shoulders appears to be covered with various branch-like structures that have jewelry hanging from them. Apparently, Thanatos also has a multitude transformations in the game, one of which is a doll-like version of himself.
Trivia
- Thanatos has the same origins as the Tanatos enemy from the original Kid Icarus, although the latter was likely a mistranslation of the original name.
