Arondite

Arondite is an antagonist from Power Paintbrush Adventures. He is an original antagonist, introduced specifically for this game.
==Story==
Arondite was born an ordinary human in Memoria, the north-most region of Loralia. However, at a fairly young age, he, as a result of a dare that his friend offered, travelled into the Jade Passage, the connection to the netherworld, and wasn't seen since then.
Within the Jade Passage, Arondite tried to explore further into it, willing to impress his friend. As a result, he ended up walking into the netherworld, Pandemonium, where he was met with a being called Dark Gaia (who was actually the siren Arcobaleno in disguise). Dark Gaia tricked Arondite into serving her, claiming that he would be able to avoid death in doing so.
A few years later, at the time of the game's events, Arondite weakens the four Crystals of Memoria - the Fire Crystal in the Chozo Ruins, the Wind Crystal in Drakenvale, the Water Crystal in the Mysidian Tower and the Earth Crystal in the Jade Passage - which causes the once-peaceful monsters of Loralia to become agressive. Upon learning that a group of travellers, led by the prince of Terra, is trying to restore balance to the land, Arondite goes to Gaia Library, hoping to intercept them.
Arondite initially disguises himself as a young boy to take the heroes off-guard, although this plan fails. He then summons Dark Phoenix, one of the creatures under "Dark Gaia"'s control, before making a swift escape. Later on, when the heroes go to Memoria to restore the powers of the Crystals, he tries to intercept them at Drakenvale by summoning Dark Moray, but again fails.
After all of the crystals are restored, Arondite awaits the heroes in Pandemonium, revealing his true powers and tries to defeat them. Even with these powers combined with those that "Dark Gaia" gives him, however, he is still defeated. In doing so, however, his connection with "Dark Gaia" is severed.
