![]() ![]() Gargos' retro costume is very reminiscent of his original appearance in Killer Instinct 2, except that he perpetually bears a mocking grin on his face, and has become much taller and less bulky than his 1996 iteration to better fit with his reboot design's build. Gargos' classic appearance as his retro outfit and in-universe disguise. He has digitigrade legs with two large claws on each foot, and though he lacks the nose and pointy ears his classic incarnation had, he's kept his wings which now appear torn and tattered, and emanate a green aura from the ends along with his horns. His face has undergone a drastic redesign, giving him curled ram horns fittingly reminiscent of Satanic idols and figures, with devious green eyes, bared fangs and tusks jutting out from the sides of his lipless mouth. He now has reddish-purple skin, but also a tan chest and horn-like protrusions on his arms. In the 2013 reboot, Gargos features a far more diabolical appearance. He has metal bracelets on both wrists, has pointy goblin-like ears and sharp claws on his hands and feet. In Killer Instinct 2, Gargos appears as a large, bulky winged gargoyle with reddish-brown skin and pupil-less yellow eyes. ![]() ~ Maya and TJ Combo in the Killer Instinct: Shadows at Dawn novella.

He is voiced by Edward Bosco, who also voiced the Icon of Sin, the Marauders, Kan-Ra, The Ghoulfather, Jagi, Devo, and Líf. Similarly, but to an even greater extent, he is also responsible for nearly every event in the reboot, leading to the entire cast confronting him as a team. In spite of being the villain of the sequel, he actually made his very first appearance in the first game, disguised as Jago's Tiger Spirit, manipulating him while under the guise of a benevolent and trustworthy figure.īecause of this and more, Gargos is often seen as the main antagonist and greater-scope villain of the entire Killer Instinct series, since he led and used Jago (and through Jago, Orchid) to defeat his rival Eyedol (the previous main antagonist) and then struck when the only one who could conceivably beat him was gone. Gargos, also known as Lord Gargos and the Shadow Lord, is a demonic warlord and the main antagonist in Killer Instinct 2 (as well as the N64 port Killer Instinct Gold) and the reboot Killer Instinct (2013). ~ Gargos in his Killer Instinct trailer intro.

Sent to attack Maya and her allies, Aganos is ultimately freed by Chief Thunder, who offers to help find Kan-Ra in exchange for help finding Eagle.Īganos is the largest character in the Killer Instinct roster. However, Kan-Ra set up a trap for Aganos and stole some of the power of the Eye before escaping, leaving Aganos too weak to fight back as Cinder installs Fulgore technology to allow Ultratech to control them. ![]() Forced to resume their pursuit, Aganos joins forces with Maya to track down Kan-Ra and face him again. ![]() Eventually, after Aganos pursued him to South America, Kan-Ra was captured by the Night Guard and imprisoned in there base, until 500 years later when Ultratech's attack released him. As thanks for the king's kindness, Aganos pledges to fulfill his last request, and has since pursued Kan-Ra over the course of centuries, frequently engaging in combat but neither being able to destroy the other. Years later, learning of Kan-Ra's survival and growing power, the now dying King tasks Aganos to find and kill Kan-Ra. Eventually, a Babylonian King placed the Eye back into the construct and gave them the name Aganos, teaching them kindness and the ways of the world hoping that they would overcome their original violent purpose. Following the fall of Mycenae, the invaders removed the Eye to make the construct subservient, and would come to serve several masters as a tool of war for a thousand years, replacing damaged parts with whatever was available. Built as one of thousands by powerful Mycenean artisans roughly 3500 years before the events of the game, the construct was powered by the Eye of the Ancients, a relic that granted them sentience and power from the Astral Plane. Aganos is an ancient war construct, the last of their kind still running. A character in the Killer Instinct series who first appears in Killer Instinct (2013 video game). ![]()
