## Appearances

### Greek Mythology

Hades is the eldest son of Cronus and Rhea. He and his brothers, Zeus and Poseidon, defeated their father and his generation of gods, the Titans, and claimed rulership over the cosmos. Hades received the Underworld, Zeus the sky, and Poseidon the sea. Hades is often portrayed with his three-headed guard dog Cerberus.

### Hercules

This version of Hades is the total opposite of the one from the myths. Here Hades plays as a god full of envy who seeks to overthrow his brother Zeus and rule over the cosmos. Hades is shown as a rude and sassy character despite him being the nice one from his brothers in the myths.

### Hercules: Zero to Hero

The series take place before the Hercules film. Hades is once again seen as the villain trying to overthrow his brother. He continues with his many schemes to do so and to get rid of Hercules 💪 who he mistook as Zeus' second son and not the real Hercules.

### Descendants Franchise

#### Escape from the Isle of the Lost

Hades is first introduced to the Descendants Franchise through this book where he plays as secondary antagonist.

He is introduced on the first chapter of the book as he describes how he daydreamed about living in Olympus and being treated like he should. He then wakes up from his dream and once again realizes he is trapped in the floating isle along with the other "poor villains". He is seen throughout the book having flashbacks of the many attempts he had to try to escape the isle.

He later meets Uma, daughter of Ursula, when she accidently, while trying to enter the isle, ended up in his underground lair. They then team up to defeat Mal and escape the isle.

At the end of the book, while Uma tries to once again enter the isle through the cracks in Hades' lair, she finds out that the cracks had been sealed and blames Hades for it. Hades in the other hand, didn't realized the cracks where sealed in the first place due to Celia being the one to cover then with her magic.

#### Descendants 3

The Hercules film version of Hades is seen once again in Descendants 3 with the difference of this time playing as a supporting character instead of the main villain. He is first seen after the first music number "It's Good to be Bad" where he is revealed to be trapped in the Isle of the Lost with the other Disney Villains. He tries to escape the Isle once the barrier opens to let the new VKs out. He then confronts Mal in her dragon form as he drains her powers with his magic ember. After being defeated by Mal and pushed back to the isle, he is then mentioned by Beast and Belle as they discuss the future of the villains in the isle.

Hades later reappears in his underground lair asleep while Mal and Celia attempt to steal his ember to stop an evil Audrey from destroying Auradon. They fail at the task as he wakes up and catches them trying to take the ember. Mal then reveals he is her father and later complains to him how he wasn't present while she grew up. After "Do What You Gotta Do", Hades agrees on lending the Ember to Mal but warns her that getting it wet will make it useless.

Close to the end of the film, Hades is once again seen as he is needed to bring back Audrey from her death like state. Hades is brought to Auradon to complete the task. After waking up Audrey, Beast tells the guards to take him back to the isle, despite his services. Mal stops the guards to say goodbye one last time. After hugging her father, Hades is seen secretly handing over the ember to Mal for her to keep.

In the end of the film, once the isle's barriers goes down and all the villains have arrived to Auradon, Hades is seen last being greeted by Mal and Ben. He hugs Mal while giving a parental look to Ben which intimidates him. They are last seen walking back to the kingdom.

### DuckTales 2017

This version of Hades doesn't play as a major character in the series compared to his previous appearances. He was briefly seen in "New Gods on the Block!" where Zeus, after losing his powers, asked for his help but instead he refused and laughed about it.

#### DuckTales Halloween Special

In a fan-made Halloween Special, Hades does play a bigger role as he is he main antagonist in the story despite only being seen in the beginning and near the end.
