Nergal is the main antagonist of The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy series.

He is the Mesopotamian god of war, pestilence, and destruction who lives alone in the center of the Earth, which he rules with an iron fist, and desperately desires "friends".

He was voiced by the late David Warner in his first two appearances and Martin Jarvis in his other appearances.

Appearance[]

Nergal has a tall, slim build, and black skin, green eyes with purple pupils, a blue tongue and green teeth. He wears a black and red suit with black dress, which often seems to blend in with his skin due to their color.

Personality[]

In his first appearances in the show, Nergal appears to value developing "friendships" with the denizens of the overworld. However, he proves to be a social outcast in both the under and overworlds as a result of his social awkwardness and centuries of being isolated in the underworld.

Biography[]

Fiend is Like Friend Without the "R"[]

In his first appearance, Nergal kidnapped Billy and Mandy and forced them to play with him forever, but Grim helped them escape.

Something Stupid This Way Comes[]

Nergal creates a magical carnival to attract company, and Billy offers to help him make friends by being nice to others, which Nergal has never tried before. However, he fails to correctly follow the advice and in the end, after hearing how Grim is forced to served Billy and Mandy, decides that friends need to be made by force, and then transforms everybody (including even Mandy) into mindless demonic creatures similar to himself before subjecting the front of the screen where the "viewer" is to the same effect. This is one of the darkest endings in the series, and is never addressed again.

Love is Evol Spelled Backwards[]

Nergal emerges from the center of the Earth to torment Billy and Mandy once again, only to meet Billy's miserable Aunt Sis, who has never known love in her life and is visiting at the time, and falls in love with her. To avoid becoming related to Nergal, Billy attempts to stop the relationship, but in a subversion of common plot threads fails and Nergal and Aunt Sis get married.

Son of Nergal[]

Nergal and Aunt Sis have a son named Nergal Jr., who they sign into the winter camp that Harold and Grim had created. Even though he fears that he won't fit in, Nergal ultimately ships Junior off to the school.

Substitute Teacher[]

Nergal is first seen in this episode bringing his son to the overworld for his first day of school, but Junior is again worried that the other children won't like him. Nergal also shows up at the very end of the episode, after Junior had brought Sperg down to the center of the Earth as his new pet, where Junior tells him about his day at school.

The Loser From The Earth's Core[]

After losing 599 consecutive times at a board game with his family, Nergal had decided to visit Billy's house, refusing to come meet his family again after deeming himself a "failure". Half of the episode involves Grim, Billy, and Mandy helping Nergal embrace the fact that he is a failure, but having him cheer when he is inconvenienced. He returns back to his family, where he tries to put his new skills to the test by playing the board game again. This time he wins, but sends a piece of the game flying, cracking the ceiling and letting lava in.

Runaway Pants[]

Nergal only appears at the very beginning of the episode, where he drops off Junior for a fitness test.


Other Media[]

The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (video game)[]

Nergal serves as both one of the game's bosses, as well as a playable character, which can be unlocked after one has completed the game with any of the starting characters.

Roller Coaster of Horrors[]

Nergal also serves as the second boss of the online game Roller Coaster of Horrors. In the game, as the trio are on their way back to Endseville, Nergal flips a switch, which chages the track and brings them to the Center of the Earth. After defeating Nergal, Billy hits another switch, which brings them down to a dungeon, instead of Endsville.

Trivia[]

  • Nergal is the show's second most recurring villain, as he appears in nine of the show's episodes (Eleven including two cameo appearances in Herbicidal Maniac and The Incredible Shrinking Mandy), and in Wrath of the Spider Queen and Underfist. However, Nergal doesn't play a villainous role in some of the episodes he appears in, especially in most of the episodes following him becoming a part of Billy's extended family.
