Changes: Jaldabaoth (Evil Lord)

Revision as of 11:41, 28 September 2018

Jaldabaoth (ヤルダバオト), also known as the Demon Emperor, was a persona crafted by Demiurge in order to further his goals while hiding his relation to Nazarick. While initially playing the role himself, he later passed it down to a summoned Evil Lord Wrath.

Appearance

Jaldabaoth was an Evil Lord Wrath variant summoned by Demiurge. Thus, he possessed almost the same exact appearance as the original one who resides in Nazarick.

Personality

Like most demons, Evil Lord Wrath views humans as lesser lifeforms. Common to all demon-kind, he is a sadistic individual, who is willing to use a female human as a blunt weapon.

As a demon, he did not enjoy simply tormenting the weak all this while. Rather, he enjoyed toying with the weaklings who thought they were very strong until meeting him.

Background

The identity of Jaldabaoth was initially created by Demiurge as part of his long term plans for the events to occur in the Holy Kingdom. However, such plan was also modified to serve as an archenemy for the adamantite adventurer Momon who in reality was his master Ainz Ooal Gown. The demon made his first appearance as Jaldabaoth in Re-Estize, attacking the capital city, under the ruse of searching for a powerful magic artifact. After putting on a flashy duel with Momon, the demon retreated, supposedly in fear of the adventurer's strength. News regarding his battle with Jaldabaoth had played a major part on elevating Momon to be recognized as a national hero of the Re-Estize Kingdom. Though Jaldabaoth was technically the loser in the battle, his existence caused a stir among the various nations, inscribing his name as a new terror that could threaten the world.

Chronology

The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom Arc

Main article: The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom I and The Paladin of the Holy Kingdom II Arc

During Demiurge's battle with Remedios Custodio and her Paladin Order, an Evil Lord Wrath Summon switched places with him, posing as a full demonic transformation of Jaldabaoth. Evil Lord Wrath immune to all of the paladins attacked, calmly approached the Holy Queen, Calca Bessarez, capturing her and proceeded to use her like a bludgeon against the defenders of Kalinsha. As a result, the paladins refused to fight him, afraid of killing the Queen in the process.

While believing the Evil Lord Wrath to be Jaldabaoth's true form, his actions and dialogues in front of Remedios with her fellow soldiers caused them to stay on guard for what he is planning to do next. Later, the real Jaldabaoth summoned a [Meteor Strike] under the signal from one of his proxy's hand gestures. Afterwards, the city gates ended up becoming destroyed, allowing the Demi-Human Alliance the opportunity to invade.

Shortly after the Fall of Kalinsha, Jaldabaoth's forces quickly conquered the Northern Holy Kingdom. All the human settlements were occupied by the demi-humans and turned into death camps on the demon's order. Months after Northern Holy Kingdom Army was destroyed, Jaldabaoth began directing his forces to concentrate on the Southern Holy Kingdom.

When the Sorcerer King killed Buser, the Holy Kingdom Liberation Army is able to successfully liberate Loyts from the demi-human's control. Learning of this news, the Demon Emperor ordered Rokesh to deploy the Demi-Human Alliance and retake the city and slaughter all the humans. In addition, he ordered the commander to allow the humans to wait a few days, and engage in psychological warfare on the human resistance so as to break their morale.

He later battled Ainz alongside his demon maids. The battle concluded with Jaldabaoth's victory over the Sorcerer King, declaring himself the winner which shocked the Holy Kingdom Liberation Army. However, Jaldabaoth sustained heavy injuries from the battle he had against the Sorcerer King despite being victorious. As a result, he had chosen to retreat while Neia made an attempt to get rid of him since the demon is weakened, but in the end, failed on doing so as he got away successfully. Additionally, the onlookers believed that the Sorcerer King was either dead or went missing, as they presumed he must have likely fallen into the Abelion Hills.

Abilities and Powers

Jaldabaoth is an Evil Lord Wrath Summon, and possesses the same powers as the NPC Evil Lord Wrath in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. Though despite matching the original in power, since this Evil Lord is a summoned monster, he is unable to use summoning magic.

On the other hand, he was able to proficiently used Calca Bessarez as some sort of weapon in battle. For instance, every swing he does to targets like Remedios Custodio is strong enough to send them flying upon impact.

Main Equipment

According to Jaldabaoth, it was to the point where the upper half of her body flew off from one of his swings. Regardless, he was still carrying the rotting lower half of Calca's body the next time it appeared when used to hit Remedios with.

Trivia

Demiurge is carefully planning for his Jaldabaoth persona to be eventually recognized as the Demon God, the leader of the infamous Evil Deities who wrecked havoc throughout the New World 200 years ago.
Demiurge is using the summoned Evil Lord Wrath to play the role of Jaldabaoth's true nature and form.

Quotes

(To Remedios): "This is my true nature."
(To himself about Calca): "From the moment I first saw it, I felt that it would make an excellent weapon."
(To Calca): "What an annoying woman. You are a weapon now. Act like one."
(To both Remedios and Isandro): "Good grief. The sight of humans squabbling before their enemy is a fearsome sight. Well, it is about time. Playtime is over."
(To Remedios): "Allow me? I do not need you to allow me anything. All you need to do is accept it. Like say, the gift of a star."
(To his foes concerning Calca): "My my, I guess I got too excited when swinging it around and the top half flew off somewhere. It's a dirty little thing, so I've been looking for a chance to dispose of it...but in the end I managed to make good use of her. Am I not a kind demon? She must be thanking me from the afterlife."
(To Remedios): "I have no idea what to make of that. Why? What do you mean by why? It felt like a little prick, how about that? If you’re done, would you mind getting out of the way? I don't intend to kill you here. I'll decide after I kill the Sorcerer King."
(To Neia about Ainz's death): "It seems you are unable to accept reality. Are you mad, human? Pitiful."
(To Neia after noticing the Ultimate Shooting Star Super): "Ohh!? Ah! What an incredible weapon this is! I haven’t seen a weapon like this in so long! That was close, it almost finished me off!"
(To the humans): "Die. Burn to ash in the flames of Wrath."
