Azazel

Summary
Azazel is the High King of Tartaros, and the main antagonist of The Vanishing Sword. He is one of the most powerful enemies of the Gods of Olympus, having killed Hera, Ceres, and Hermes amidstThe Battle of the Black Spire.

Appearance
He is described as a tall, muscular man, clad in black armour with purple trim. He is taller than a regular human, over seven feet tall, and is able to grow larger in size, similar to the ability shared with gods and goddesses. He always carried around with him a blade made of Stygian Iron, christened the Baneblade, for reasons unknown.

Personality
Azazel has a cold, calculating, and ruthless character, shown during his conversations with Zeus before they engaged with battle. He has a dry sense of humour, and cares nothing for the regards of others. He would, given his way, slaughter all the peoples of the earth, merely for his amusement.

Powers
Azazel is shown to be extremely powerful, killing three gods and countless other Earthborn and Cyclopses, implying his allegiances do not lie with Gaia. He was able to duel with Zeus on the slopes of Mount Parnassus, grievously wounding him before dissapearing into the snow.
