~ Dark Owl |
Dark Owl is an akumatized villain in Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir and the akumatized form of Mr. Damocles.
Appearance[]
His eyes are round and yellow. His face is covered with a black mask, while there are brown circles with white edges around his eyes. The mask also includes two tuft-like points with brown tops that come out above his eyes and point backwards. His beard is brown, his mustache notably having tips sticking out, and two black vertical stripes go up it. He wears a black suit that includes brown covering and padding over his upper body, arms, and legs. The covering includes black or darker lines, and a brown symbol of an owl's face appears on the chest. Above his hips, he has a brown belt with two pockets towards his right side holding objects based on his symbol. He wears brown gloves that have two ridges each, brown boots with black soles, and a long cape that is black on the back and brown on the other side. The cape can also transform into a pair of wings that has a gray mantle along with several black feathers on either side of the wings.
Personality[]
As Dark Owl, he is vengeful towards Ladybug and Cat Noir for accidentally humiliating him, and desires to do the same thing to them. He strives to be the only hero in Paris, aiming to get rid of Ladybug and Cat Noir to achieve his goal. Despite his plans and hostility towards the heroes, Dark Owl isn't needlessly evil, even chiding Ladybug and Cat Noir for believing he would really harm a kitten when his scenario is revealed to be a fake, and is still a man of his word, releasing the heroes from danger after they make the gesture of surrendering their Miraculouses.
Powers and Abilities[]
While Dark Owl doesn't have real superpowers, he has a wide arsenal of gadgets and tools, such as a fully functioning grappling hook, numerous owl-themed boomerangs, wings that he can use to glide through the air, and much more. He also has the help of his akumatized object, Albert, a super computer with technopathy that can carry out any function that he needs. Using his computer, Albert, he can take over the computers of everyone in Paris to send messages, use his owl signal, create holograms and create traps, control drones, send out weapons, and it is implied that Albert can create and deliver weapons to him. He also has enhanced combat capabilities, enabling him to efficiently battle with Ladybug and Cat Noir individually, and a strong jump.
He is very smart, managing to outsmart Ladybug and Cat Noir and trapped them, and he would have won if it weren't for Ladybug having fake miraculouses to deliver to Hawk Moth while he's de-activating the trap.
