Biography

Rago is the primary antagonist of Beyblade: Metal Fury, called the Child of Nemesis for being the only person able to control the ancient destructive power sealed within Proto Nemesis. Ruthless and utterly devoted to his god, he leads the ritual that revives Nemesis into Diablo Nemesis X:D and unleashes its Armageddon attack against the Legendary Bladers. After fusing bodily with Pluto to become Nemesis itself and unleashing the world-threatening Black Sun, he is finally destroyed when Gingka Hagane's Cosmic Pegasus, empowered by every Blader's Star Fragment, pierces straight through his body.

Appearance and personality

What They Look Like, and How They Behave

Rago's hair falls in long black spikes that nearly brush his feet, three of them rising from the crown while a fourth drapes down across his face, hiding his nose and left eye. Two more locks are braided with gold beads and wrapped around his pierced ears. His eyebrows are dark and heavy, his eyes a menacing dark red set in pale skin. He dresses in a white undershirt trimmed with gold and patterned with black markings recalling ancient Greek design, worn beneath gold armoured bracelets. A frayed violet cape, tied at the front, hangs from his shoulders, and a second violet cloak wraps his waist over a gold belt studded with beads, covering his bare legs down to gold knee-bracelets and gold-wrapped papyrus sandals.

Rago shows no mercy and takes open pleasure in cruelty, treating the people around him with contempt and referring to his enemies as worms. He never questions his own authority, certain of his place as Nemesis's rightful keeper, and looks on unmoved, even amused, while others commit horrors in his presence. Warmth and compassion are absent from him entirely. Nemesis is the one thing he holds dear, and his devotion to it pushes him toward domination of the entire world, with nothing else registering as a limit on what he is willing to do.

The only blader able to wield Nemesis; Armageddon beat Ryuga and flattened nearly every Legendary Blader before Gingka's last attack broke through.

Claims We Could Not Check

  • In the manga Rago isn't human at all — he's an incarnation of Nemesis itself.
