Barbatos, also know as Great Dragon or Bat-God, is the ruler of the dark multiverse. Once his sole purpose was to destroy the unstable universes created by his master, who crafted universes from the fears and hopes of all beings within the multiverse, and return their energies to the World Forge. Barbatos eventually killed his master and corrupted the World Forge.
