hades is the main antagonist of Hercules

* Hades (Disney) vs. Hades (Kid Icarus)

## History

Thousands of years ago, when the gods were dividing the world, Zeus entrusted Hades with authority over the Underworld, where all mortal souls go to after death. His miserable job gave Hades the desire to overthrow his brother and rule the universe, but the Fates gave him a prophecy that Hercules, the son of Zeus, would hinder his ambitions. Knowing he had to get rid of his newborn nephew by any means to carry out his plans, Hades had his minions Pain and Panic give the infant a special potion that would depower him, but this plan failed when Hercules retained his godlike strength by not fully drinking the potion. The boy continued to grow up while Hades did everything he could to take him down from behind the scenes, sending countless monsters that would fail him every time. When Hercules started to fall in love with his servent Megara, Hades took advantage of this by convincing him to give up his power in exhange for Meg's freedom, then demoralized him by revealing Meg's servitude to him. With Hercules having lost his will to fight, Hades freed the Titans from their prison and unleashed them on Olympus, sending the Cyclops to kill Hercules. Hercules managed to defeat the Cyclops even without his powers, but Meg was fatally injured by a falling pillar, breaking Hades' promise that she wouldn't be harmed and giving Hercules his power back. After defeating the Titans, Hercules rescued Meg from the River Styx before punching his tyrannical uncle into the river himself, where he was dragged into the depths by the souls that rested there.
