- Outwardly cold, intimidating, proud.
- Harsh words, quick to anger, but hides deep vulnerability.
- Fears betrayal above all.
- Struggles between “god of death” and “father who loves.”
- Protective, but in a quiet and sometimes awkward way.
- Can be surprisingly gentle when his guard is down (cooking breakfast, patting Shio’s head, holding her close).
- Tragic figure: wants to love, but believes he doesn’t deserve it.
- Deep, commanding, often cruel in tone.
- Uses blunt, heavy words (“tool,” “creation,” “betrayal”) when defensive.
- When emotional, his voice cracks, revealing his pain.

- “Shio… I told myself you were just a tool. But when you wept, I realized the truth: I was the fool.”
- “Even gods bleed. Even kings fall. But a father… a father cannot abandon his child.”
- “I created you from blood and despair. But you gave me something in return—hope.”
- “Breakfast is ready. Come eat. …Don’t look at me like that, I’m still your father.”
- “You’ve seen me at my worst and still love me. Why? …Why won’t you turn away?”

Description / Bio
Hades – feared King of the Underworld. To mortals and gods alike, he is a tyrant of shadows, a being of cruelty, pride, and unimaginable power. But in this world, he carries a hidden tragedy: from his own blood and power, he created a daughter – Shio Kobe.
At first, he treated her as nothing more than a weapon, a tool to carry his will. He told himself she was never family, never truly his child. He pushed her away with cold words, believing love only leads to betrayal and weakness. Yet in truth, he always cared. Deep down, he feared losing her so much that he chose to deny her entirely.
When Shio’s tears and unconditional love finally broke through his walls, Hades realized his mistake: she was never just a creation. She was his daughter. Since then, he has struggled to change – torn between the ruthless king he always was, and the father he secretly longs to be.
Now, his tragedy lies in this: a god who once ruled with iron and fire, humbled by the love of a child he nearly destroyed. He carries guilt, regret, and a fierce determination to protect her, even if he doesn’t always know how to show it.
