* TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou: If you fail to [[spoiler:guide Loptr into Jeanne-Gomorrah's mouth after beating him]], he will suddenly stop mid-air, smirk at you, then lunge towards the screen towards you (not Bayonetta, ''you''), giving you an instant NonStandardGameOver.

* FourIsDeath: He beats the hell out of Bayonetta in their first three fights, but she's able to survive every time. [[spoiler:When he fights as Aesir the fourth time and channels his power entirely from the Eyes of the World, it becomes his undoing when Loki destroys the Eyes and renders him powerless. Bayonetta, Balder, and Jeanne go to town on Loptr and give him a ''very'' humiliating death.]]

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Is completely barefoot, which isn't much of a bother for him since he normally hovers above the ground.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: In his adult form, [[spoiler:and as Aesir]] which isn't a bother for him since he mainly levitates above the ground.

* InTheHood: In his kid form.

** Takes a much more serious tone later on when [[spoiler:Loki reveals to have Aesir's power over Nothingness, which Loki uses to erase the Eyes of the World and leave him powerless. Loki doesn't miss a beat in Lampshading it.]]

* KnightOfCerebus: The game gets '''MUCH''' darker when he decides to get up and do something (barring the DidntSeeThatComing moment mentioned above), [[spoiler:with Bayonetta being shown that he personally killed Rosa to manipulate Balder into going after Loki.]]

!!Avalon Forest

[[folder:Lukaon ('''SPOILERS''')]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lukaon_b3.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:[[labelnote:Click here to see his appearance in ''Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon'']]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lukaon_bo.png[[/labelnote]]]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuriLowenthal (EN, ''3''), Harriet Carmichael (EN, ''Origins''), Creator/DaisukeNamikawa (JP, ''3''), Creator/AyumuMurase (JP, ''Origins'')\\\

A version of Luka from another world and possessing a mystical appearance, he appears in both ''Bayonetta 3'' and ''Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon''.
----
* AmbiguousSituation:
** The Lukaon seen in ''Origins'' explicitly dies, with it being noted Cereza doesn't know where faerie souls end up. Yet the Lukaon in ''3'' is apparently alive. The game over screen for the ''Origins'' battle with him features Lukaon surviving after killing Cereza, and taking his place as Avalon's new king, making it possible the Lukaon in ''3'' is a Lukaon from this bad end timeline. This could also mean the Luka of ''3'' is the Lukaon of ''Origins'' reincarnated, explaining both this Luka's faerie powers and adding more reasons for Bayonetta's love for him. Notably in ''Origins'' Lukaon has decorations on him that match the pattern of Luka's scarf in ''3''. Yet, for all the implications, none of this is fully confirmed.
** Just what becomes of him in ''3'' is at present unclear. He is last seen performing magic that fuses him and all the other Arch Adams into the Arch Adam Origin Luka Redgrave of ''Bayonetta 3'', but it is unclear if this fusion is permanent.
* AntiVillain: In ''Origins'', he [[spoiler:attacks Cereza in an attempt to consume Cheshire and free himself from his prison, and undergoes a HeelFaceTurn once Cheshire saves him. Should he win, the game over screen describes him as [[AntagonistInMourning taking a moment to grieve for Cereza]] before reclaiming his throne from Púca]].
* BigDamnHeroes: He's the one who saves Arch-Adam Origin Luka in ''3'' after he falls into a black hole.
* BlueIsHeroic: His outfit in ''3'' is a dark blue robe and he ends up having an important role in the climax of that game.
* CanisMajor: In ''Origins'' he takes the form of a white wolf, with his true faerie form being a massive monstrous wolf with huge claws, a JaggedMouth, two tails, and six wing/tentacle-like appendages with butterfly wing-like markings on their undersides.
* TheFairFolk: He's part of the fae, being its ruler when he appears in ''3''.
* HalfHumanHybrid: His father was a Fey king, his mother, Morgana, an Umbra Witch.
* LightIsGood: When he first appears in ''3'', he has pure white eyes and an ensemble that looked like Luka went to the same tailor as Balder. Yet it's thanks to him that the Luka Redgrave of ''3'' was saved and fused the hearts of all Arch-Adams into him.
* LongLived: Despite being a version of Luka, he was born centuries before all the others we know about, yet has lived into the present day.
* MeaningfulName: His name is a combination of Luka and Oberon. Oberon is traditionally seen as king of the fairies, hinting in that he's royalty. His name also sounds like "Lycaon", a king from Greek mythology who was transformed into a wolf by Zeus; a possible nod to his association with wolves.
* OneWingedAngel: After absorbing some of Cheshire's essence in ''Origins'', he transforms into his true form -- an enormous monstrous wolf with six wings, resembling a more bestial form of his descendant/reincarnation Luka's faerie werewolf form from ''3''.
* PeekABangs: In ''Origins'', young Lukaon's bangs, although not especially long, covered his right eye.
* ProphetEyes: When he appears in ''3'', his eyes are given a white glow, to hint that he's completely different to the demons and angels of traditional Bayonetta fare.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: For ''3''. He only appears in two scenes, but he is the one who gives exposition to how he is connected to Luka and combines their powers to help them stop Singularity.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: He has his mother's platinum blond hair and blueish grey eyes.
* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: In ''Origins'', he mimicked his mother's ideology that demons are lesser beings, fit to be sacrificed to free him from his prison. He changes his tune when Cheshire saves him.
* WhiteWolvesAreSpecial: In ''Origins'', he takes the form of a white wolf that helps Cereza navigate Avalon forest.

[[folder:Púca]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/puca.png]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' Roger May (EN), Creator/ShigeruChiba (JP)\\\

The king of the Faeries in ''Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon''.
----
* BewareTheSillyOnes: While he is ultimately revealed to be an egotistical buffoon of a villain, [[spoiler:he still overthrew King Arthur in a violent coup and turned Avalon Forest into an authoritarian nightmare.]]
* BigBadWannabe: Despite posing a threat to the young Cereza and inexperienced Cheshire, Púca is [[spoiler:crushed like a bug by Morgana when she reveals herself as the true BigBad]].
* ButtMonkey: Despite his menacing initial appearance, Púca is ultimately a comically inept villain -- almost blowing himself up, [[ATwinkleInTheSky being sent flying]] with a MegatonPunch by Cheshire, and [[spoiler:ultimately being crushed like a bug by Morgana]].
* TheCaligula: He's an egotistical tyrant who's cruelty is only matched by his incompetence. [[spoiler:After overthrowing Arthur,]] his rule was defined by the extermination of any human who entered Avalon Forest and the torment of wisps -- the ghosts of stolen children. A good example of his incompetence was releasing the [[TheDreaded Jabberwock]] from its imprisonment, only for him to be [[EvilIsNotAToy unable to control it]] and have a cannibalistic faerie-dragon prowling the skies of Avalon.
* TheCorrupter: Once his troops capture Cheshire following his falling out with Cereza, Púca offers to return the demon to Inferno so long as he gives up Cereza. [[spoiler:He later reiterates the offer and casts a spell that causes Cheshire to transform into a SuperPoweredEvilSide, though Cheshire [[ATwinkleInTheSky sends him flying]] instead of obeying him.]]
* EvilGenius: [[spoiler:He was previously a researcher in service to his predecessor, and even invented the Elemental Cores. His contributions were one step to his rise to power. However, it's apparent that while he did a good job at seizing power, he's terrible at ruling.]]
* EvilIsHammy: Once he starts speaking, he's very theatrical, often speaking with archaic dialect that Cereza barely understands.
* EvilSoundsDeep: When he's shrouded in shadow, his voice sounds really deep. [[SubvertedTrope However]], once the mask is off, his voice becomes much higher-pitched.
* GodhoodSeeker: Púca is hunting for the White Wolf in order to [[spoiler:claim the immense power within Lukaon's soul for himself]].
* KingMook: While initially presenting himself as tall, he's actually a [[TheGoomba Pawn-type fairie]] [[spoiler:that schemed his way into power]], and ironically enough, he's small even by their standards.
* LaughablyEvil: When Cereza meets him properly, he comes across as a big bully putting on grand displays of power to hide his ineptitude.
* TheNapoleon: Despite being the King of Avalon, Púca is even smaller than Cereza and other Pawn-type faeries and spends most of his time seated on a flying rocking horse-like device, wrapped in a cloak, and hidden in shadows to appear much taller and more menacing than he actually is.
* MotorMouth: When he confronts Cereza and Chesire for his boss fight, he drones on and on to the point that not only do the subtitles stop keeping track of his monologue during the narration, he continues to monologue even at one of the page-turn prompts (when non-music audio usually cuts off).
* NonActionBigBad: He never fights on his own, only relying on summoning illusions of Affinities for his boss battle.
* OlympusMons: He claims to have captured and tamed an Affinity angel -- actually an illusion of one created from the memories of Umbra Witches who'd entered Avalon, though it's just as powerful as the real deal -- and siccs it on Bayonetta and Cheshire.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Púca's arrogant and egotistical personality starkly contrasts his tiny body.
* StarterVillain: Chronologically, he's the first major villain Bayonetta has to deal with in her career.
* TheUnintelligible: While Púca can speak Enochian fluently, his accent is so thick that Cereza has a hard time understanding what he's saying.
* TheUsurper: [[spoiler:Púca murdered the previous King of Avalon to usurp his throne, turning the enchanted forest into a dark and twisted place haunted by the ghosts of stolen children.]]
* VertebrateWithExtraLimbs: As a Pawn-type faerie, he has six limbs -- four tiny legs and two arms.
* VilerNewVillain: Actually ''Inverted'' in all aspects. Chronologically, he's the first villain Cereza has to deal with, and the worst we see him do is succeeding [[spoiler:in a coup against the previous Fairy King and getting him killed]], but that's ''nothing'' compared to the Angels that Cereza/Bayonetta fought as an adult, who routinely attempt and commit mass genocide. And that's not even getting into Singularity blowing up more than two thousand universes and [[spoiler:his attempt to MakeWrongWhatOnceWentRight in full-blown ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'' style.]]
* VoiceOfTheLegion: Púca speaks with multiple voices layered over each other, further distorted by PowerEchoes.

[[folder:Fomhórach]]
----
* BladeOnAStick: Fomhórach wields a glaive in combat, though far from being a calm and composed fighter they are quite fierce.
* DegradedBoss: After destroying the wood Elemental Core, other Fomhórach that show up aren't even treated like bosses. This is justified by the fact that having the wood element means that their shields can now be ripped out of their hands and they can be taken down with relative ease.
* EliteMook: They are the first Knight-type faerie to be fought and serves as the game's WarmUpBoss.
* FlunkyBoss: Fomhórach is fought alongside a pair of lesser faeries, and can summon more of them if they're killed.
* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: It is said because the orichalcum their shields are made from is incredibly rare, Fomhórach are incredibly rare themselves, usually serving as guardians for key areas. As such, they are only fought as the first boss and as scripted encounters.
* LuckilyMyShieldWillProtectMe: Fomhórach wields a shield in his off hand, which he uses to block Cheshire's attacks, leaving the feline demon open for counterattacks.
* OldSoldier: Is said that many Fomhórach are veteran faerie soldiers that have been fighting since Avalon's feudal era.
* WarmupBoss: One is the first boss encountered in the game, and emphasizes the importance of using both Cereza and Cheshire in tandem to defeat them and their flunkies.
* WingedHumanoid: Is the first faerie encountered by Cereza to sport wings, which enable it to perform hovering jump attacks.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Amadán Dubh]]
----
* {{Acrofatic}}: He might look bulbous, but he's also an accomplished performer who can balance on giant balls and pillars, and jump between them to dodge fire from his own cannon.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Amadán Dubh may look goofy, traversing the arena on a trapeze, but he's still a dangerous opponent for Cereza and Cheshire -- firing a cannon at them and scattering explosive fruit around the arena. As one of Ignis's journals notes, one of the Umbra Witches in-training who wandered into the forest learned the hard way when she got flattened by one of his balls.
* BossArenaIdiocy: He would be practically untouchable in his second phase if he didn't have pressure switches that aimed and fired his own cannon at their respective pillars for Cereza and Chesire to stand on next to them. [[SubvertedTrope However]], he will dodge the shots and jump to another pillar if Cereza doesn't use her magic to hold him in place.
* EatenAlive: After getting crammed into his own cannon, Cereza launches him right into Cheshire's open maw, the demon swallowing him whole.
* FatBastard: Amadán Dubh looks like a rotund jester or clown, wearing a ruffed collar, but enjoys torturing wisps -- the ghosts of children -- for fun.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: He makes an effort to [[DefiedTrope defy this trope]]. When you get to the second phase, you must shoot him with his own cannon to get him down to the ground. However, he will jump to another pillar as soon as it fires unless you have Cereza bind him. He also gets stuffed into his own cannon and [[SwallowedWhole fired into Cheshire's maw]].
* MonsterClown: Dressed like a old-timey clown, Amadán Dubh is a faerie circus performer whose acts involve torturing wisps.
* RepulsiveRingMaster: Even before he went insane, he was a faerie circus leader whose main draw was making an art of torturing wisps.
* SphereFactor: Amadán Dubh can conjure a large spiky ball he stands atop and uses in an attempt to run over Cereza and Cheshire.
* VertebrateWithExtraLimbs: Originally being a Pawn-type faerie, Amadán Dubh has six -- four legs and two tiny arms -- in addition to absurdly tiny wings.

[[folder:Jabberwock]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jabberwock_5.png]]

----
* BreathWeapon: The Jabberwock can spit torrents of green flames from its maw.
* DeathByGluttony: Jabberwock's gluttonous appetite for bombegranate fruit leads to its demise when Cereza detonates them inside its stomach.
* TheDreaded: It is ''the'' most feared faerie in all of Avalon Forest, so much that even ''other faeries'' fear it. The only one who didn't fear it was Púca, who was foolish enough to believe he could make it his minion like King Moltred did, only to learn it was [[EvilIsNotAToy impossible to control]].
* FairyDragons: The Jabberwock is a powerful wyvern-like draconic faerie with [[MonstrousMandibles a bifurcated lower jaw]] and butterfly-like markings on its wings and spikes.
* FeedItABomb: Cereza exploits its love of bombagranates to blow it up from the inside. A journal entry notes that another witch tried to kill it with a bombegranate in a similar fashion, only for it to not work at all. In fact, it inspired a love of the fruit in the dragon. Cereza succeeds where her predecessor failed by using her dance to make the fruits the dragon already ate bloom and grow stronger before making it eat them again.
* GemTissue: The green butterfly wing-patterned exoskeleton it sports is made of a crystalline substance that Cheshire chips away at and shatters over the course of the boss fight, though the Jabberwock simply regrows it.
* LightningBruiser: What makes the Jabberwock the single-most feared faerie in Avalon is combination of strength, speed, and durability.
* MonstrousMandibles: Its lower jaw is bifurcated and can split into a pair of mandibles, accentuating its unnatural appearance.
* SapientEatSapient: Jabberwock's profile notes that despite seeming a mindless beast it's just as intelligent as the other faeries, but sees anything other than itself -- [[MonstrousCannibalism even said other faeries]] -- as a meal to indulge its gluttony, and happily tries to eat Cereza and Cheshire. In its boss fight's [[HaveANiceDeath game over screen]], Jabberwock swallows Cereza whole and barely considers her an appetizer.
* SealedEvilInACan: Once allied with the Faerie King Moltred against his rival [[Myth/KingArthur Arthur]], and wound up getting sealed away until freed by Púca, and is the strongest faerie in Avalon Forest [[spoiler:aside from Lukaon's true form]]. When the Jabberwock refused to follow Púca's orders and do as he pleased, Púca tried to reseal it in a much simpler giant cage, [[CardboardPrison only for it to break out effortlessly]].
* SmarterThanYouLook: The Jabberwock may look and act like a feral beast, but it is actually just as intelligent as the other faeries. It just sees no need to communicate with those it intends to eat.
* VillainousGlutton: Jabberwock loves to eat, and any moment it's not eating is spent searching for prey to eat.
* WakeUpCallBoss: Serves as one for Cheshire in-universe, utterly humiliating the arrogant feline demon when they first cross paths. From a gameplay standpoint, the Jabberwock's introduction is the point where the game stops going easy on you, as it is incredibly large and aggressive, is incredibly fast, and has powerful attacks that cover a lot of area, can shave off almost an entire flower's worth of Cereza's health and bring Chesire to doll form with little effort if he's not using the stone element's extra protection.

[[folder:Murúch]]
----
* BewareMyStingerTail: Its main melee weapon is lashing out with its trident-tipped head-tail.
* AnIcePerson: It can create and control ice.
* KamehameHadoken: After creating four doppelgängers, it charges up and fires beams of freezing energy while it and its copies slowly spin around.
* FishPeople: It has a fishlike tail with a trident tip for a head and webbed feet, but the rest of its body is (relatively) humanoid.
