* BlingBlingBang: His scythe is golden. Dis Baba calls him out on the impracticality of it just before the final boss fight of the original game.



* NighInvulnerable: Even by Nomad standards, Digamma is extremely resilient. He tanks the Champions' strongest attacks and mighty blows from his fellow Nomads to little effect, and even major injuries like the loss of a limb barely slow him down. It ultimately takes getting skewered by a weapon specifically designed for slaying gods to bring him down, and even then, he holds on long enough to deliver a lengthy villainous speech before succumbing to the injury.



* ThePowerOfTheSun: He can release blasts of destructive solar plasma in battle.



%%* SinisterScythe

to:

%%* SinisterScythe* SinisterScythe: His weapon of choice is a golden scythe, befitting his character as a profoundly evil and sadistic BloodKnight who draws strength from the death and destruction caused by war.


Added DiffLines:

* ThisIsGonnaSuck: His reaction to realizing that the bident which just skewered him is about to release a pulse of deicidal energy? A relatively subdued "Ohhh, Fuck Me...".
* WarGod: A particularly nasty example. Digamma embodies the ''cost'' of war, meaning that all the worst aspects of warfare fall under his divine purview. He himself is a sadistic BloodKnight who revels in death and destruction, and his goal seems to be to plunge the multiverse into an eternal HopelessWar that will sustain him forever.

He imprisoned the real Zeta within an indestructible obelisk and forced him do the Nomads' IT work, he brainwashed Eta into a mentally broken HumanWeapon to serve as his attack dog, and he turned Rho into the living monster factory that is ECHIDNA. And then, of course, there's his plan to kill off all the Greek Nomads but himself...
