| ~ Ke-Pa |
Ke-Pa is an antagonist from the TV series Kung Fu Panda: Legends Of Awesomeness, and the main antagonist of the two-part episode "Enter The Dragon". He is a demonic dragon who (a long time ago) ravaged the Valley of Peace with his fellow demons.
He was voiced by Alfred Molina, who is best known for portraying many characters, such as Maxim Horvath in Disney's The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Viggo Grimborn in Dragons: Race to the Edge, and Doctor Octopus in Spider-Man 2.
Personality
Ke-Pa was shown to be blasphemous, arrogant and bitter of his defeat against Oogway in both forms; however, he additionally became destructive and tyrannical when he regained his demonic powers. His plans to wreak havoc and destroy the world shows that he is a vengeful, oppressive, manipulative and power-hungry being. He is also very disrespectful and vituperative for mortals and will mock and toy with them, believing them to be powerless against his supernatural powers.
History
When Oogway defeated his demon army and sent them into the underworld, sealing the pathway back using his "Hero's Chi", Ke-Pa nearly killed him in hateful vengeance, until the power of the Sacred Peach Tree stopped Ke-Pa, rendering him into the body a powerless pig. Swearing vengeance, he fled.
Ke-Pa then waited for the tree to die so that he can regain his powers, destroy the one who possesed the "Hero's Chi" and free his demons. When the day came that the tree started to die, Ke-Pa started to gain some of his powers back and headed for the Valley of Peace. There, he encountered Po, who he fought and easily defeated. After that, he arrived at Peach Tree Hill, where he fought Shifu and defeated him. After that, the tree died and Ke-Pa gained his full power and true form back. When Shifu lies saying that he has the "Hero's Chi", Ke-Pa attempts to free his demons by crushing Shifu thus destroying the Chi.
However, Ke-Pa discovers that Po is the real host of the Chi and almosts crushes him to death, extracting the Chi and freeing his demons in the process. However, Po is brought back to life by the peach tree sapling planted by Shifu and his Hero's Chi is restored to him. Using the chi, Po reseals the demons then battles and destroys Ke-Pa, ending his reign of terror for good.
