History Characters / TheBridgeEnemyKaiju

* AboveGoodAndEvil: Proclaims he's not evil, for extinction is simply inevitable. He also rejects concepts like love, friendship, and mercy.
* AffectionateNickname: Well, Megalon doesn't know his name, so he calls him "Boss Ball".
* ApocalypseHow: He caused a ''Class 2'', almost ''Class 3'' event called the ''Toba Catastrophe'' over 77,000 years ago on Earth. The effects were so devastating that he wiped out all of Earth's ancient civilizations and brought humans to the brink of extinction.
* BadBoss: The second he feels he doesn't need you, he'll throw you under the bus. This is however [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] in the case of Monster X when we learn what he thought about this: he wasn't pleased to have to kill him, but X was getting increasingly unstable, resulting in a moment which, from his point of view, was closer to ShootTheDog. He much prefers the actual outcome to the problem, with X eventually stabilizing.

* BecameTheirOwnAntithesis: His titles say it all: he went from the Aspect of Life to the God of Extinction. It's so pronounced that his MirrorUniverse counterpart is effectively his heroic self and vice versa from what little has been revealed.
* BenevolentBoss: As long as you are useful to his plans, he keeps his promises and grants wonderful boons.
* BerserkButton: He hates the undead. Given his goal to "free" all souls from mortal flesh, this makes sense.
* BreathWeapon: He wouldn't be a Kaiju if he didn't have one. In his case he fires a beam comprised of pure mana.
* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: Is powerful enough to kill all his minions himself and would gladly do so, but he still needs them around to gather what he needs to restore his greatly diminished strength. [[spoiler:Invoked by Grand King Ghidorah, who only reveals he figured out Bagan's true identity when he was too important to silence.]]
* CompositeCharacter: Of the two different unused designs for [[spoiler:Bagan]] Toho has gone through, having a design closer to the later designs while Mizu, Doragon, and Enjin were forms of his original concept, and his original name was also the second part of the names for all three. Strength wise he's on the level of the videogame version, and his backstory is an amalgam of the 1980s and [[spoiler:''Mothra vs. Bagan'']] versions. During his formations in his OriginsEpisode, he cycles through his various unused designs before stabilizing into his current one.
* TheDreaded: The kaiju who know about him shudder to even speak his name.
* EldritchAbomination: Even by kaiju standards, everything about him seems unnatural.
* EnemySummoner: Can create avatars of his original forms to fight along side him.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: He did not anticipate that the displaced Kaiju would choose to help the Equestrians of their own free will.
* EvilCounterpart: To the BigGood [[spoiler: Harmony]]. Both are one of the most ancient beings in their respective dimensions, are PhysicalGod tier powerhouses, had a hand in inventing or perpetuating magic on Equestria and Terra respectively; and are sealed away in one form or another after losing some of their power. However, he was forcefully imprisoned to stop his rampage across ancient Terra and in doing so, lost most of his power by force.
* EvilIsDeathlyCold: His territory, a black featureless landscape, which he can expand, is supernaturally cold and not even {{Hellfire}} affects it. Even beings unaffected by the cold of outer space like Monster X and Gigan react with pain and surprise.

** [[spoiler:As Harmony's noticed, Bagan seems to have grown attached to the Dark Hunters to a degree and treats them well, even in situations that doesn't directly benefit it..]]

* OneManArmy: In the Permian, it single handedly took on trillions of demons and kaiju level archdemons and slew billions before the native kaiju joind in.
* OrcusOnHisThrone: He recruits others because he requires vast amounts of energy to act outside his realm. His kaiju are gathering magical artifacts from across the multiverse for him to absorb. Once he is fully charged, then he will get involved personally. [[spoiler:Though when he accesses Harmony's realm, he decides to attack her personally instead of sending a minion. Justified in that case, as he outright admits that sending any of his minions, even Grand King Ghidorah or one of his avatars wouldn't have been anywhere strong enough to challenge Harmony.]] Also justified with his Aspects: according to WordOfGod if he sent them more often or to the wrong place [[spoiler:Mothra might recognize his handiwork.]]
* OutsideContextProblem: The Equestrians and even most Terrans for that matter have no idea he even exists, and those that do believe he'll still be gone for another 30,000 years. Needless to say, ''no one'' sees him coming.
* PhysicalGod: By ''far'' the most powerful of the kaiju. Bagan also has various magic based abilities that are very different from your run of the mill kaiju power-set. The only character capable of matching him one-on-one is [[spoiler: Harmony]], and even then just barely which makes sense when you remember that [[spoiler: Bagan fits the same cosmological niche for Terra as Harmony does for Equestria, and Grogar who's implied to be in the same tier as both.]]

** Despite having a large force at his disposal, he doesn't deploy all of them at once and steam roll any opposition because he knows it would be a huge waste of energy and would likely destroy the artifacts he's needing collected to restore himself. He also acts civil to his troops and grants them boons because he needs them to restore his strength; while he would love nothing more than to kill them, they can't serve him if they are dead. [[spoiler:He goes after Harmony personally, because she's far too powerful for any of his other minions or even his avatars, to have any hope of fighting.]]

* RedemptionRejection: [[spoiler:Harmony offers him a chance to end this game right now, saying it's never too late to turn back to the light. He flatly refuses.]]

* SealedEvilInACan: Was imprisoned under Attu Island for over 70,000 years. He was ''meant'' to be sealed for a full 100,000 years, but he was accidentally released prematurely. This works both for and against him, as while his return was unexpected, it also means he didn't have time to fully regain his power and thus needs to find alternate ways to do so.

* ShadowArchetype: [[spoiler:To Xenilla. Both justify their villainy as being towards the goal of culling the weak and forcing beings to grow stronger. The difference is Xenilla hated himself for it but viewed it as a NecessaryEvil he does out of love for his brother and protectiveness of Terra while Grand King Ghidorah [[ForTheEvulz enjoys every minute of it]] and doesn't care about anyone except himself.]]

* BadBoss: The second he feels he doesn't need you, he'll throw you under the bus.

* AntiMagic: Subverted when [[EnthrallingSiren Sonata Dusk]] attempts to use her song based MindControlMusic on him. It doesn't control him, but apparently reacts with his repressed memories and causes his PTSD to flare up.

* VillainProtagonist: Least in the sense he's only really [[AntiVillain a villain]] by merit of working for the main antagonist. He's this for the first Bonus chapter and splits billing with Irys for the Christmas special. He later goes on to be the main kaiju in the Enjin arc.

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:After Controller 011's soul reveals the true circumstances of her death and urges him to let go of the hate and accept love and friendship with people other than her, he admits Monster X is better than him and willingly [[SplitPersonalityMerge becomes one with him]].]]

* ForTheEvulz: Regularly kills and destroys since he sees it as simply as part of his nature to do so.

* {{Expy}}: [[spoiler: Irys (more accurately, the Gyaos flock who eventually birthed her) was originally created to be a member of a heroic group of beings destined to destroy a great evil and save the world, but circumstances separate her from that group before any of them are born. When she eventually is born, she has no idea who she really is, and her would-be comrades are likewise unaware of her. Her life from there on is incredibly lonely at best and a living hell at worst, resulting in her eventually falling in with the forces of the villain that she was originally created to help defeat. She makes genuine friends during her time with the villainous faction and ends up coming into direct conflict with the heroic group she was originally supposed to be a member of, but through this she eventually starts to learn about who she really is, and what she was always meant to be.]] This is, note-for-note, a direct parallel of [[spoiler: Tailmon/Gatomon]] from Anime/DigimonAdventure. WordOfGod claims that this was unintentional at first, but as he's used Digimon characters as the basis for some of the other characters in the fic, he later realized it was probably a subconscious choice.

* {{Teleportation}}: He can teleport everyone in a town to parts unknown, such as Zenith, which is a nod to the third Rebirth of Mothra movie.

* BadDreams: Monster X has very, ''very'' bad dreams. Some of his worst can [[spoiler: trigger a short PartialTransformation into his Kaizer Ghidorah form.]]

* EvilVsEvil:

* {{Expy}}: [[spoiler: Irys (more accurately, the Gyaos flock who eventually birthed her) was originally created to be a member of a heroic group of beings destined to destroy a great evil and save the world, but circumstances separate her from that group before any of them are born.

* Expy: WordOfGod states he's modeled after [[Machinima/RedVsBlue Caboose]] and [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Alphonse.]]

* WeaponizedTeleportation:

* EvilAlbino: Her body is almost completely white, barring some areas of purple (more pronounced in her human form), and she's a ravenous devourer. She is starting to learn friendship and compassion though.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: He's aware the Power Ponies world is a comic book. Along with Sonata Dusk and Pinkie Pie, he's the most likely to make a ShoutOut to other series. He even invokes ''Series/{{Batman}}'' style IdiosyncraticWipes at one point.

* CyberCyclops: Yup.
