His Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- Before action of the movie, he and the other Titans were dangerous and destructive gods causing all kinds of misery to befall mankind, resulting in most likely millions of deaths until young Zeus defeated them and imprisoned them.
- After being freed by Hades, he immediately agreed to help him attack Olympus because of their lust for vengeance on Zeus for trapping them for thousands years.
- Started causing massive destruction after being freed with most likely thousands or even millions of deaths, flooding a forested village with lava.
- Attacked Mt. Olympus and captured all of the gods. He also destroyed all chariots of the gods, and considering the fact that their horses hadn't appeared again, they most likely killed them during battle.
- He attempted to kill Hercules when he attempted to free his father and the other gods.
- After Zeus was freed, they cowardly attempted to run away and abandoned Hades, showing that they had no loyalty to him and only allied with him to have a chance for revenge on Zeus.
- He and Hydros also didn't seemed to care that they ended up hitting Hades with ice and lava during their attempt to kill Hercules.
- His relationship with the other Titans is too ambiguous to consider it a redeeming quality.
- Despite having some detaching comedic moments, his crimes are taken serious and all characters consider him dangerous.
What Prevents Him from Being Pure Evil?[]
- Though not as much as Hades, he still has detracting comedic moments such as:
- Not knowing where Olympus was and going in wrong direction with Hades being forced to inform them where Mt. Olympus was despite in being clearly visible.
- He and Hydros accidentally hitting Hades with lava and ice while trying to kill Hercules.
- Cowardly running away after Zeus was freed and Lythos doing it despite losing both of his heads, with Hades yelling at them to come back
- He suffers insufficient characterization as he only has a few lines in the movie. However, this is a minor prevention as he and the Titans showed a desire for revenge against Zeus for trapping him and the other Titans.
