Colonel Bassad

Colonel Bassad is the main villain in the non-canon game Contra: Legacy of War.

Story
Bassad is the mad dictator of a unnamed country. A complete lunatic, Bassad seeks nothing but complete world domination. Intelligence intel eventually reveals that Bassad had recently bought a piece of alien cell from the Alien Wars in the black market, and has already began to use it to create a army of mutants under his command. It is also rumored that Bassad has allied himself with a mysterious alien entity, who is also providing him with soldiers to further his goals. Four soldiers from the Hard Corps team are then sent to invade Bassad's country and take him down.

After making their way into Bassad's stronghold and defeating the mad colonel, the heroes are inexplicably drawn into Bassad's mind for a final confrontation. Defeating Bassad's consciousness, they are then teleported to face the alien entity, which turns out to be a living planetoid.
