* JerkassGods: Considering he's a Greco-Roman god, this goes without saying. Just see how he enforces the Golden Rule and the punishment for breaking it.
* MadLove: The entire reason he's set up this scheme is to win a wager he made with Jupiter so that he can bring Proserpina back to Elysium, despite her sacrificing her immortality. Never mind that she wants absolutely ''none'' of this.

The game's BigBad. He's responsible for the creation of the city and the imposition of the Golden Rule.
* AncientAstronauts: Like the rest of the ancient gods, he is an extraterrestrial from another world.
* DidntSeeThatComing: He had no way to know that his wife would still have the ability to project her powers despite being locked in stasis. This means he is unaware of the time loops and also that the protagonist is from nearly two thousand years in the future.
* IHaveManyNames: Known as Pluto to the Romans, Hades to the Greeks, Osiris to the Egyptians, and Nergal to the Sumerians. The game settles for referring to him as "God of the Underworld."

*InsaneTrollLogic: Claims his morality is based on the rule, 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you', but his interpretation of this rule is extremely selective and hyper-literal.
