Absolute Tartarus (The Hero Squad series)

Absolute Tartarus is the main antagonist in Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy and known as the Ultimate Life Form Warrior, Absolutian.
== Conception ==
=== Etymology ===
Absolute Tartarus' name is derived from the region of the Underworld referred to as Tartarus in the mythology of Ancient Greece, which was said to be both the location for the imprisonment of the titans, as well as where the souls of the wicked spent their existence in torment. Tartarus is also considered in Greek mythology to be a primordial force or deity, alongside entities such as the Earth, the Night, Time, and etc.
=== Design ===
Absolute Tartarus' gold body is made to contrast the silver body of Ultras. In addition, Tartarus' golden armour is outlined with black sections, and he has silver skin, as well as silver armour plating on his lower legs and forehead, and pale blue eyes. Red gemstones are set into the backs of Tartarus' hands, and he wears a gold and silver garment around his waist, as well as two large golden pauldrons on his shoulders. Finally, Tartarus wears a black emblem on his chest armour, with the red seal of The Kingdom inscribed upon it.
== History ==
=== Ultraman Regulos ===
Absolute Tartarus is an Absolutian warrior from The Kingdom who could transcend space and time, as well as an impressive strategist adept at orchestrating plans from the shadows. Following Absolute Diavolo's infiltration and elimination of the Cosmo Beast Fighters on Planet D60, he arrived to retrieve the sole survivor, Ultraman Regulos, holding him captive within Narak to study the Ultras before their invasion of the Land of Light began.
=== Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Absolute Conspiracy ===
Absolute Tartarus is an Absolutian warrior from The Kingdom who could transcend space and time, as well as an impressive strategist adept at orchestrating plans from the shadows. As part of his plan to take over the Land of Light by force to hold control over it as a second home planet for the Absolutian people, he set out to gather accomplices and monsters from different timelines to help complete his mission. Among those he recruited and displaced are Reibatos, Maga-Orochi, Leugocyte, Mold and Juda.
==== Chapter 1: The Beginning ====
Tartarus conspired with an Alien Sran that he had rescued in the past to empower Maga-Orochi on Planet Mikarito with Gudis Cells, doing so to accelerate its evolution into Magatano-Orochi and bring destruction to the universe. While Sran carried out the task he had been given, capturing and infecting Ultraman Max to use as a power source for Maga-Orochi's growth, Tartarus jumped into multiple dimensions (including those of Future Earth), but his presence was detected by Delacion of the Universal Justice in the form of a mysterious signal, who sent Ultraman Cosmos and Ultraman Justice to track its source.
After observing the Land of Light and remarking on its beauty, Absolute Tartarus first appeared in person during Ultraman Neos, Seven 21 and Ultraman 80's battle against Leugocyte on Planet Feed, enlisting Reibatos to revive a Gymaira and direct it to attack the three Ultras. After both Gymaira and Leugocyte were defeated by Neos, Seven 21, 80 and the newly-arrived Cosmos and Justice, Tartarus attempted to personally destroy all the Ultras, but Cosmos and Justice were able to block the attack, using the energy to fuse into the Super Ultraman, Ultraman Legend. The combined Ultra immediately fired his Spark Legend towards Tartarus, forcing the alien to escape.
Tartarus returned to Planet Mikarito to discover that his plan was foiled by the Ultras, whereupon he found Sran to have survived his defeat by Ultraman Great, and the remains of Maga-Orochi, having been slain by the combined efforts of Max, Ribut and Xenon. After lamenting that Sran had failed to carry out his orders despite being given seemingly everything he needed to have them succeed, Tartarus eliminated the alien before departing into his portal to plan his next scheme. The Beginning
At some point, he brought Reibatos to the Future Earth World, and got him to revive the Alien Bat who once fought Ultraman Saga. Tartarus promised him a place in The Kingdom should he agree to help, and Bat went to work on creating Zett.
==== Chapter 2: The Divergence ====
In addition to Reibatos, Alien Bat and Zett, Tartarus conscripted Parallel Isotopes of past villains from the Land of Light's history to his cause, resulting in divergent alternate timelines created as a result of his meddling. After retrieving Juda and Mold from their active years, he influenced both Belial and Tregear in their younger years into straying from their original path, exposing their futures as evil Ultras through informing them of their whole lives, and ostensibly promising to change their fates. His act of intervention prevented their original fall into darkness from taking place, after which he provided the duo a portion of his Absolutian powers. This change in the timeline led to numerous other ramifications, and was detected by Ultraman King.
Returning to the present era, Tartarus decided to unleash the Gua Brothers upon the six Ultra Brothers and eventually allowing his empowered fallen Ultras to fight them after the Gua Brothers fell in battle. When Ultraman Zero entered the fray, Tartarus decided to withdraw Belial and Tregear away to The Kingdom.
==== Chapter 3: The Appearance ====
Absolute Tartarus goes to Planet U40, thinking it could be a threat for his future plans. Ultraman Joneus appeared, and the two fought. Tartarus and Joneus fired energy bolts at each other before the former escaped, affirming his assumptions of U40 and its strongest warrior.
Tartarus later appeared on Planet Ebil while the Ultra League were fighting Zett and the Zetton army. Amidst the battle, he opened a portal and intended to abduct Yullian, only to be stopped by Ultraman Zero, who combined the Shining and Ultimate Zero to become Ultimate Shining Zero, and followed Tartarus through his portal into Narak. Due to the form's immense power consumption, Zero was left weakened afterward and defeated. Tartarus then emerged and took Yullian, announcing his motives to the present Ultras before getting Belial and Tregear to fire at them. The three of them then left with Yullian with them. After taking Yullian to Narak, Tartarus informed her that she would be there for some time, before leaving through a portal. Yullian briefly attempted to follow him, but turned around to find another being hidden in shadow, seemingly also imprisoned there by Tartarus. Though the mysterious being was almost completely hidden, save for its eyes and Beam Lamp, she recognized who they were.

=== Ultra Galaxy Fight: The Destined Crossroad ===
After imprisoning Yullian within Narak, Tartarus brought Tregear and Belial to Absolute Palace on his homeworld, The Kingdom's Central Planet. After Tregear sensed what he believed were Differator Rays, Tartarus informed the two Parallel Isotopes of the planet's history. Suddenly, Absolute Diavolo and Absolute Titan arrived, angrily exclaiming that the Ultras did not deserve to be within the palace. However, Tartarus dismissed them, demanding the pointless argument be stopped. Electing to give his subordinates even more power, he had Tregear and Belial stand inside a device that delivered them a second power boost from Absolute Particles in conjunction with Eldora Tower's Cascade Rays, making them even stronger. During this, Tartarus learned of a dimension where the Giants of Darkness and the Eternity Core are, plotting to take the latter some time in the future to gain its power.
Tartarus then went with Reibatos to resurrect Gina Spectre. She demanded to see her brothers Mold and Juda again, but Tartarus bound Gina and and instructed her to gather the Devil Splinters in exchange. Tartarus, Reibatos, and Alien Bat then arrived at the Monster Graveyard after Gina had attacked Ultrawoman Grigio, Ultraman Zearth, Ultraman Nice and Ultraman Boy, stealing a Devil Splinter from them. Tartarus then took the chance to bind Grigio and had Bat Ultra Dark-Killer's recreated Killer Plasma to create Ultrawoman Grigio Darkness, making the two Grigios fight.
The New Generation Heroes appear, with Ginga and Victory fusing into Ultraman Ginga Victory and Rosso and Blu fusing into Ultraman Ruebe to challenge Tartarus. Finding an opening, Tartarus managed to transfer the Devil Splinters into Reibatos' body, amplifying his Reionics powers enough to restore the Giga Battlenizer, which he used to fuse the souls of Mold and Juda into Gina Spectre to create Gua Spectre in a new perfect form, but Reibatos dies in the process, unable to handle all of the power the Devil Splinters bestowed him. Tartarus took the Giga Battlenizer for himself before he fled back to the Central Planet, storing the weapon along with the Tregear Eye in his Narak dimension. Tartarus then contacted Absolute Titan, telling him to go to Planet Babel to deal with Ultraman Noa, who had apparently appeared there recently.
Tartarus showed himself on Planet Babel after Titan had been taking too long, having fought against the Ultra Force, Ultraman Ribut, and Ultraman Nexus. He fought against the Ultras present until Joneus, Leo, Astra, Seven, and Zero arrived, having completed his training to unleash his fighting instincts. To his own surprise, Tartarus found himself now unable to predict Zero's moves, facing against Ultimate Shining Zero until Leo and Astra joined the battle, overpowering Tartarus with their combined martial arts. He summoned Ultroid Zero to help him turn the tides, but was dealt with by Nexus, who transformed into Noa to finish off the robot. Zero fired his new finisher at Tartarus and forced him to retreat.
Later on, Tartarus learned of the Ultras' infiltration of the Kingdom to rescue Yullian, mobilizing all of his allies to deal with them. Tartarus himself fought against Justice and Xenon, who stalled for time until Astra managed to locate and rescue both Yullian and Ultraman Regulos before escaping. Tartarus and his army chased them to Planet Blizzard, where they were confronted by a large gathering of Ultras. He fought against Ultimate Shining Zero again and was driven into a corner, resorting to using a powerful beam to attempt to wipe out the Ultras there. Ultraman King appeared and ordered Tartarus to stop, but he refused to listen, saying that the arrival of the 'Lord', and the survival of their race, was more urgent and that King had no authority over the Absolutians. He fired his beam which was blocked by a barrier from King, but it created a wormhole which sucked in both Tartarus and Ultraman Ribut, taking them to another universe.
Tartarus landed on the Earth with Diavolo's Absolute Heart, with his companion's body being destroyed by Regulos, Leo and Astra earlier, and revived him with a warning that Diavolo only had five lives left. They looked on towards the city nearby, seeing Carmeara, Darrgon and Hudram fighting against Ultraman Trigger. 
=== Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga ===
Absolute Diavolo appeared on Ultraman Trigger's Earth and faced the three Giants of Darkness, withstanding their attacks until Tartarus arrived and stopped the fight. He demanded that they hand over the Eternity Core before leaving, threatening the three giants. The Absolutians then sent down a Darebolic to draw out Ultraman Trigger who, while managing to defeat the monster, was hurt from the battle and the usage of the Eternity Core's energy. Diavolo then appeared and challenged Trigger, beating his other forms and forcing him to use Glitter Trigger Eternity once again. Trigger had his energy absorbed by the Absolutian until Ultraman Ribut arrived and allowed Trigger to escape. They fought until Tartarus appeared and told Diavolo to stop and remember their objective, before leaving.
Sometimes later, he and the Absolute Heart of Diavolo are in Narak. Informing as long as the heart still exists, he can't die. Tartarus convinced Diavolo to return to The Kingdom, as well as focusing their priority to take the Land of Light rather than the Eternity Core.
=== Episode of Ultraman Galva: A Hero Squad Story ===
He set out to gather accomplices from different timelines and multiverse to help complete his mission. Among those he recruited and displaced are Foreman Spike, Rabbid Foreman Spike, Dark Link, Dark Young Link, Dark Toon Link, Dark ProtoMan.EXE, Silverback, Frix and Alien Bat Gurashie.
He influenced Galva in his younger years into straying from his original path, exposing his future as evil Ultra through informing him of his whole lives, and ostensibly promising to change his fates. His act of intervention prevented his original fall into darkness from taking place, after which he provided the duo a portion of his Absolutian powers. 
=== Flower Sisters with Equestria Girls Remix ===
Tartarus brought Desius, Orb Dark and Galva to Absolute Palace on his another homeworld, New Kingdom's Central Planet. After Desius sensed what he believed were Differator Rays, Tartarus informed the three Parallel Isotopes of the planet's history. Suddenly, Absolute Arion and Absolute Hermes arrived, angrily exclaiming that the Ultras did not deserve to be within the palace. However, Tartarus dismissed them, demanding the pointless argument be stopped. Electing to give his subordinates even more power, he had Desius, Orb Dark and Galva stand inside a device that delivered them a second power boost from Absolute Particles in conjunction with Eldora Tower's Cascade Rays, making them even stronger.
He fled back to the Central Planet, storing the Neo-Giga Battlenizer along with the Orb Ring NEO Calibur, Orb Dark Calibur and Desius Eye in his Narak dimension.
He fired his beam, but it created a blackhole which sucked in both Tartarus and Ultraman Reiga Tri-Cosmo, taking them to another universe.
Tartarus landed on the Earth with Diavolo and Erebos. They looked on towards the city nearby, seeing 3D Printer Prisoner, Magnet Prisoner and Garbage Can Prisoner fighting against Super Megaforce Meridian Black and White and Aquarius Knight.
