Gaspar (MLTO)

Gaspar was a Main Character and an Antagonist in "MLIV:TO".
Originally an Annunaki, this creature travelled to the Earth, in an attempt to murder a certain individual. However, he soon got bored with his current task and decided to hunt for something more exciting. A while later, he discovered Emperor Redmark and, under the guise of a human being, became one of his most trusted allies. 
As time passed, Gaspar forgot about his true purpose and continued to hunt down every being that would oppose the man who has the same intentions as him- to bring destruction upon the unsuspecting world and cause a lot of suffering.
Gaspar served as one of the three Main Antagonists of Chapter III and the Main Antagonist of Chapter IV, as well as a posthumous Antagonist in the Ministory's final Chapter.
== Personality ==
Gaspar is shown to be an extremely volatile creature, He is very easy to anger and often uses his rage to incinerate anyone who would dare to oppose him. This has caused many people to fear him and call him "The Firestarter"- a rightful title for someone like himself.
He is also known for his hatred for all human beings, which was prominent even before he arrived on our humble planet. Since his race and the otherworldly humans have clashed a lot of times, he thinks that the humans in this world are the same as them, which is not quite right. However, there are a few exceptions in his hatred, such as Emperor Redmark and the people under his command, as well as Gaspar's few human allies.
One of Gaspar's most notable traits is his unwavering loyalty toward another entity, first toward the leader of the Governance de Magi and then toward Emperor Redmark. Although he is incredibly unpredictable, he carries out his orders without a question and never dares to oppose his master, no matter how much he would like to do so.
Gaspar's intent to get rid of brave heroes who dare to oppose Redmark is legendary. He is known to mercilessly slaughter every single one of them and shows little to no care about their pleas for mercy. Even though he is always being avoided by those heroes, he always seems to find his way to them. And when he does, it is very hard to get away.
== Battle Expertise ==
Gaspar's main method of battle is his affinity to the element of Fire. The magic that he casts is incredibly powerful and is capable of incinerating an opponent in little more than a single hit, leaving many opponents incapacitated and helpless.
Although his main experties lies in his magic, Gaspar is also capable of using a certain amount of weapons, most notably Swords and Scythes, despite the fact that he only gets to use the former a certain number of times. He is known to have beheaded many heroes with the weapons that were granted to him and is capable of doing much more than that.

=== Killed By ===
* White Phoenix (Caused)
* Emela Innanu (Caused)
* Fire Guardian (Caused)
* Earth Guardian (Caused)
* Wind Guardian (Caused)
* Dark Guardian (Caused)
* Aether Guardian (Caused)
Gaspar manages to control of the king of Goznor's body, despite the fact that a Soul Transfer can only be performed when an Annunaki is dead. This gives him the chance to hunt down and weaken the world's heroes until Redmark is strong enough to take down everyone who dares to oppose him.
With the help of all seven Guardians, Geralt manages to fight against the possessed sovereign and free him from his ethereal restraints. The guardians use their powers to weaken the bond between the master and his victim and Geralt casts the Soul Release spell, which ejects the malevolent soul from its host and sends it back outside, leaving it vulnerable to everything around it.
* Dante Gonoru (Caused)
As Geralt is nearly overwhelmed by the Annunaki's incredibly powerful magic (as well as the numerous flame sprites under his command), the wounded and heartbroken Dante finds a reason to keep supporting his allies until the very end, giving him the chance to trust Geralt once more.
Fearless and determined, the young prince rushes forward and sends his spear flying into the crowd of powerful enemies, destroying all of them with just a single hit and mortally wounding their master, effectively causing his inevitable demise.
* Geralt Kaos (Soul Seal)
In his last moments, Gaspar attempts to back away. However, the gravitational pull of the crystal that the Fire Guardian gave to Geralt is too strong and he is easily sucked away by the spell that the young hero casts on him.
Gaspar is sucked into the small crystal, his soul sealed away for eternity, never to return and harass anyone ever again.
== Killed Victims ==
* Numerous unnamed people
* Numerous unnamed humanoids
* Numerous unnamed forest guardians
== Trivia ==
* Gaspar's name is of Persian origin. It means "he who guards the treasure" and is a reference to one of the three kings who bring presents to a young Jesus during his story in the Bible.
** In addition to that, Gaspar also bears several similar meanings, some of them being "treasure", "treasurer" and "treasure-bearer".
*Gaspar is the second Annunaki who appears in the entire "Miracula Luxia" universe overall. The first one is Balthazar, who appeared in "Miracula Luxia IV" and the third one is Melchior, who appears in the same Ministory as him.
**In addition, he is also the first Annunaki who is considered to be an Antagonist.
*Gaspar is the second Annunaki (fourth chronologically) who dies in the "Miracula Luxia" series overall. The first one is Balthazar, who dies in "MLIV".
*In most of Gaspar's dialogue, he speaks in capital letters. This implies that he is always yelling, even during certain times when he's not supposed to be.
**Curiously, this is only the case when he is an Annunaki. As a human being, he always seems to talk normally, meaning that his eternal rage is only noticable when he is in his true form.
