Deus (Asura's Wrath)

==Summary==
Deus is one of the primary antagonists in Asura's Wrath. Former leader the Eight Guardian Generals, Deus thought that only a firm hand could have rid the world of the Gohma. Seeking to claim control over the empire, despite not having real desire to rule, Deus staged the murder of Emperor Strada and framed Asura for the crime.
Believing in the righteousness of his cause, regardless of the means, Deus oppressed mankind for thousands of years and used them to gather the power he needed to destroy Gohma Vlitra. His dominion eventually came to a turning point when Asura and Yasha confronted him to establish who will determine the fate of the world. 
His Mantra Affinity is Pride.
