Ozma of Chaos (Korean: 혼돈의 오즈마 Hondone Ojeuma), also known as the God of Chaos (Korean: 혼돈의 신 Hondone Sin), is a secondary antagonist in Dungeon Fighter Online. He serves as the final boss for the dungeons Dark Side in the Otherverse and Throne of Chaos in the Otherworldly Dark Side.

He is a Human-turned Demon who waged a century-long war against mankind, which nearly wiped out humanity from the face of Arad over 700 years ago, and is responsible for the Black Crusade, the creation of the Imposters, the Curse of Blood, and the God of Extinction, the fall of the Pelos Empire, and the recent reappearance of Demons on the Arad Continent as well as the indirect creation of the Priest Order, the Black Order, the Kazan Syndrome, the Avengers, and the Mistress Phenomenon.

According to Aradian history, over 800 years ago, Ozma was once a human regarded as the greatest Archmage in the Pelos Empire, renown for his friendship with the Warlord General Kazan and for vanquishing the Berserk Dragon Hismar. However, after the then Pelos Emperor framed him for treason and sentenced him to death in an act of fear and jealousy, Ozma sold his own soul to Death in exchange for the power to enact his revenge and to cleanse the world of the sins of humanity. After his execution, he resurrected as a demon, and with his newfound powers as the 'God of Chaos', Ozma initiated his plan to destroy the world of man. During his conquest, he plunged Arad into an Age of Chaos and waged war against the last alliance of mankind, which consisted of the forces of Pelos, Suju, and the Priest Order, who ultimately defeated him and sealed him away along with his army and the entirety of Dark Side within another dimension known as the Otherverse.

Although, Ozma remains sealed for now, his presence still lingers: Imposters continue to roam the continent and signs of his seal weakening and of his resurrection become more evident with every subsequent Metastasis as increasingly more Demons arrive from the other world. It seems while trapped, Ozma still continues his campaign to eradicate mankind, readying a new army of Imposters to wage another Crusade against Arad when he escapes from his dimensional prison.

Prior to the Great Metastasis Update, Ozma initially appeared as the final enemy of Dark Side during the Priest Order's investigation of the Otherverse in the Epic Quests Once More Into the Breach, where he was revealed to be the Eleventh Apostle (Korean: 제11사도 Je Sib-il Sado) of Pandemonium, also known as The One Who Rose from Death (Korean: 죽음에서 일어난 자 Jugeumeseo Ireonan Ja). However, after the Origin Update, this reveal was changed to an unspecified time after his imprisonment and prior to the canonization of Saint Michael as an Apostle, and his reappearance would be at the finale of the Black Order Resurgence Arc.

History

Ozma and Kazan as national heroes

More than 800 years prior to the events of the story, Ozma was once known as the greatest wizard in the Pelos Empire. In Arad Year 152, he and his friend, Pelos General Kazan, saved the world by killing the Berserk Dragon Hismar, ending his 52 year long reign of terror. The two individuals were regarded as national heroes and their strength helped bring the Pelos Empire to the peak of its power.

However as years passed, the Pelos Emperor grew paranoid and wary of their fame, believing that their power would eventually rival his own and cause him to be overthrown. It was during this time, a mysterious hooded individual arrived, and informed the Emperor of a prophecy which foretold the eminent destruction of the empire. In an attempt to avoid fate, the Emperor orchestrated a conspiracy to get rid of both Ozma and Kazan, but in doing so, sealed the Empire's demise.

In Arad Year 157, the Emperor framed Kazan for treason and sent Ozma to pursue him. While the two fought each other and became weakened, the Emperor sent another group of soldiers to capture and subdue them. The two individuals were both framed for treason, imprisoned, and tortured. The Emperor was dead set on making the two individuals lose everything. He ordered the execution of Kazan and Ozma's families as well as taking Ozma's wife Liz as a member of his concubines.

Ozma meets the Reaper

While imprisoned, Ozma felt a great betrayal for his services to the Empire and became disgusted upon seeing how quickly the people were swayed into believing the Emperor's conspiracy. As he thought to himself awaiting his eventual execution, his thoughts ventured down a dark path. Ozma had devoted himself to getting revenge and the eradication of humankind. He would bring upon the world the same sense of betrayal he experienced and let chaos reign supreme. But he had no way to do so...

It was around this time, Ozma was visited by an emissary of death, a reaper, who promised him the power he wanted in exchange for his soul. At first, Ozma turned down his offer, attempting to drive the reaper away. But as time passed, his desperation and insanity grew. Upon his execution, as he was thrown into the South Sea to die, the reaper appeared before him again and Ozma accepted his proposal. It was then, the once great wizard Ozma had died, and had given way to the newly resurrected God of Chaos.

Ozma leading his Army of Darkness

One year later, Ozma initiated his plan and began assembling his Army of Darkness. He searched for his old friend Kazan, finding the exiled, disgraced general wandering aimlessly in the Stru Mountains barely clinging to life. Acknowledging their past friendship, Ozma released Kazan from his human form and offered him an opportunity to join his Army of Darkness. Having given up on humanity, Kazan refused his offer and the two parted ways. Kazan became the God of Destruction wandering aimlessly around the Arad Continent spreading his Kazan Syndrome while Ozma became the God of Chaos spreading his Curse of Blood and continued his pursuit to create his Army of Darkness to wipe out humanity.

Through Ozma's efforts, creatures known as Imposters began showing up in Arad. These beings were former humans who fell victim to the Curse of Blood, and were monsters that disguised themselves as humans with an insatiable bloodlust. Those who were attacked by Imposters also became Imposters. Because the Imposters were not distinguishable from normal people by the way they look, it created mistrust and witch hunts within the populace; descending the continent of Arad into chaos. Around Arad Year 211, a group of individuals known as priests began combating the growing number of Imposters and would eventually grow into a major organization. However, during these years, Ozma kept himself hidden as he amassed his Army of Darkness. It wouldn't be until Arad Year 252 when Ozma finally reappears to lead his Imposter Army.

Ozma being sealed away

One year later, Ozma and his Army of Darkness were challenged by a group known as the Priest Order, led by Michael of the Holy Eye, in an almost century-long struggle known as the Black Crusade. In Arad Year 347, Ozma's army became cornered in an area known as Dark Side, where he and his army were defeated and sealed in another dimension, ending the 94 year war. Although Ozma had failed in his campaign to destroy humankind, he succeeded in getting revenge against his perpetrators, and led to the destruction of the once great Pelos Empire.

While trapped, Ozma readied a new army of Imposters to wage another war upon Arad for when he would eventually escape from his dimensional prison. But he was not alone; trapped along with him was the Priest General, Michael of the Holy Eye. For centuries, the two individuals constantly clashed with one another, unable to kill each other. It wouldn't be until Arad Year 993, when the seal on dimension prison weakened, could Ozma begin sending small portions of his army, Chaos Demons, back into Arad.

Around Arad Year 1002, the Priest Order upon investigating the Chaos Demon phenomenon had discovered a demon stronghold in the Otherverse. It was at this time, his longtime adversary, Michael, had met his end to a group of adventurers exploring the Interdimensional Rift. With now nothing holding him back, Ozma prepared his army for war. However, before he could leave his dimensional prison, he was stopped by the same group of adventurers. Although he was greatly weakened from his centuries long struggle with Michael, Ozma fought against the adventurers and met his inevitable end.

Although the Priest Order and the people of Arad celebrated the death of Ozma, heavy residual effects remained. In their blind pursuit to vanquish evil, they had caused the deaths of two more Apostles, bringing Hilder's plan two steps closer into fruition. Unbeknownst to them, the inevitable destruction of Arad, loomed ever so near...

Move List

• Ozma sends out slow moving dark fireball projectiles to hit players.

• If a player stands in the same place for more than 1~2 seconds, Ozma summons a small pillar of dark flame under him/her that deals large multi-hit damage and hitstun to players upon contact. Inflicts confusion and slow.

• Cloak of Darkness: Causes Ozma to be immune to damage. Can be taken away temporarily after being hit by multiple attacks, causing Ozma to be susceptible to damage.

• Aura of Betrayal: Ozma sends out a pillar of dark energy transforming one of the four players into Skewer. During this phase, all party members attacks and skills harm one another while in the betrayal state. The Skewer player must attack the other party members with the Aura of Betrayal skill (default hotkey: S) to lift the curse.

• Dimensional Breakaway: Ozma sends out a pillar of dark energy transforming one of the four players into a Sawtooth. During this phase, Ozma will constantly teleport players around the map. The Sawtooth player must cast Space Restoration skill (default hotkey: S) near Ozma multiple times to lift the curse.

The Finthers player can instantly remove Cloak of Darkness with the special skill (Default hotkey: A).

Strategy

• Gimmick: Ozma is immune to damage until his Cloak of Darkness is temporarily disabled. Ozma will be in an immobilized super armor state when vulnerable. Using any grabbing moves or immobilizing moves will renew his Cloak of Darkness.

• Gimmick: Ozma can transform all party members into the four different types of monsters located in Black Crusade and Dark Side. Depending on which monster the player turns into he/she has a role that needs to be fulfilled to prevent the other party members from taking damage depending on if Ozma casts Aura of Betrayal, Dimensional Breakaway, or Exchanging Sights.

• Be aware of each monster's role and that monsters and teammates can attack one another. Team communication and using each monster's skill at the right time are the keys to success, otherwise the all party members will suffer from the persistent effects after the phase is over and take unnecessary damage.
