Emperor Belos is the main antagonist of the Disney Channel animated series, The Owl House. He is the ruler of the Boiling Isles, and founder of the Coven system. Emperor Belos needs the portal to the Human Realm, but he says he does not plan invading it but something for "the Day of Unity".
Background
Fifty years ago, at the time the series began, witches on the Boiling Isles use to wield and mix magic freely until he came and restricted the usage of magic. He declared that he alone could speak to the island, and convinced the witches of the isles that their usage of magic was wrong. His teachings came into place, his strength grew, and became the Emperor of the Boiling Isles. He taught that mixing magic was wrong and only he had that right. He created the coven system to restrict the use and knowledge of magic, and those who resisted were declared wild witches who would face harsh punishments.
In his years of power, Belos retreated into his castle where he spent his time planning and preparing for what he calls the "Day of Unity".
Physical appearance
Emperor Belos wears a mask with two long, upward-facing horns. His eyes are hollow through the mask creating the appearance of having no eyeballs. He wears a large cape with white and brown, as well as gold trim.
Personality
Belos is described to be an omnipotent and megalomaniac. He is shown to be a strict and commanding figure, impatient and not tolerating failure from his subordinates. His authority is shown to be a powerful one that garners fear and respect.
Trivia
- The voice actor Matthew Rhys considers him to be "misunderstood" rather than actually evil.[1]
- The Emperor's name is misspelled as "Bellows" in the closed captioning.
- The word "belos" means "beautiful" in several Iberian and Mediterranean languages, such as Portuguese, Galician, and Corsican.
