~ The Ancient Minister's Trophy description.
The Ancient Minister is the central antagonist for the majority of the Subspace Emissary from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He is the field commander of the Subspace Army and controls the R.O.B. Squad and their deployments of Subspace Bombs.
He is considered to be a tragic villain (an antagonist who does not truly intend to be a villain), as he truthfully regretted his actions of bringing the World of Trophies into Subspace under the orders of Tabuu and he was coerced into doing so.
Biography
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
The Master Robot was once the leader of the robots living on the Isle of Ancients. One day, Tabuu showed up and ordered the robots to be his servants, threatening to use violence should they refuse. The Master Robot had no choice but to accept Tabuu's offer. Using the technology of their island, the robots made Subspace Bombs to bring parts of the World of Trophies into Subspace. In shame of being forced to follow Tabuu's bidding, the Master Robot took the disguise of the Ancient Minister.
After multiple interferences with the heroes, he was ultimately betrayed by Master Hand's henchman Ganondorf and left to die in the explosion of the Isle of the Ancients, but he resorted to his true R.O.B. form and joined the heroes in the quest to defeat Tabuu.
A trophy of the Ancient Minister is unlocked after completing the Subspace Emissary.
