I'd really like it to go differently, just for once. But history repeats itself. Endlessly. You two are way too stubborn! Incapable of having a realistic vision of what's good for our people!

~ Qilby
Qilby is one of the main antagonists of the Krosmoz mythos.
He is an Eliatrope of the Primordial Age and the twin brother of Shinonome. A member of the Council of Six, he is a renowned scientist and inventor with considerable knowledge of Wakfu, regarded as a grandfatherly figure among his peers. However, unlike the other members of the Council, Qilby (and by extension, Shinonome) remembers all of his past lives upon reincarnating. Qilby was the inventor of the Eliacube and the instigator of the war between the Eliatropes and the Mechasms, bringing about the end of his civilization. He was ultimately imprisoned in the White Dimension by Yugo.
In the French version, he was voiced by the late Érik Colin in the second season, and by Laurent Morteau in the third and fourth seasons. In the English dubbed version, he was voiced by Arthur Bostrom in the second season, and by Joe Ochman in the third season.
Qilby appears to be a tall and slim elderly Eliatrope. He had long, light brown hair accompanied by a tied up beard and amber eyes with golden-framed glasses. His attire consisted of a white open shirt with long loose sleeves, a pair of baggy brown pants, and sandal-like shoes. Like all Eliatropes, Qilby wears a defined hat with large horn-like protuberances. During the war against the Mechasms, he had his left arm ripped off by Phaéris due to his treachery.
While fused with the Eliacube, his appearance changes entirely. His skin becomes unnaturally white with black markings that run along his body, his lips turn dark blue, his teeth and nails become darkened and sharp, his hair and beard turn black and straight, and his eyes turn the luminescent blue of Wakfu itself. His attire now consists solely of his original baggy pants, which have also turned white, a loincloth-like piece around the hips made from the ripped remains of his shirt, and his Eliatrope hat, which has been torn from the back and had the protuberances change into an upright shape with black markings on them. Finally, he has the Eliacube in the shape of a makeshift arm to replace the one he lost, with a pauldron and vambrace at the beginning.
After Qilby is separated from the Eliacube, his body mostly reverts back to its original appearance, but with his hair now a paler, straw-like color, blue lips, scar-like tissue where his black markings used to be, and a Wakfu stump in place of his missing arm.
Starting season 4, Qilby's appearance changes once more. He now has Wakfu-blue eyes, dark hair, and sharp teeth again, as well as a shorter beard and blue markings on his forehead reminiscent of the ones he used to have when fused with the Eliacube, while his apparel now consists of a white hooded cloak.
Personality[]
Qilby was once legitimately loving and caring of his people, but the chronic boredom that came with the ability to remember all of his past lives slowly manifested itself into a madness that urged him to seek new stimuli, no matter the cost. This would prompt him to spark the war against the Mechasms so that the Eliatropes would be forced to evacuate their home planet, as Qilby had grown nihilistic and bored of it. His insanity would only cement itself after being imprisoned in the White Dimension for thousands of years.
After being released, Qilby initially puts on a façade of being a warm, patient, and peaceful person focused on the liberation of his people, but in reality, he has become cunning, devious, unstable, unpredictable, and disturbed; easily and remorselessly willing to manipulate anyone to further his goals.
Qilby is deluded by the belief that he would make an ideal ruler for his people, as his charisma accompained by thousands of years worth of accumulated experience and never-ending thirst for knowledge would ensure that Eliatrope culture and science never stagnate. This egoism, however, is revealed to be deeply rooted in a fear of loneliness and abandonment.
Powers and Abilities[]
Qilby's transforming into his Traitor form.
Immortality: As one of the twelve children conceived by the goddess Eliatrope and the Great Dragon, Qilby is a demigod and reincarnates indefinitely by having his Wakfu return to his Dofus when his body perishes.
Portal creation: The innate power of all Eliatropes, Qilby is capable of summoning portals at will for defensive and offensive purposes.
Eternal memory: Qilby's greatest plight is his exclusive ability to remember all of his past lives; while useful for the advancement of Eliatrope science and technology, the weight of his memories has deteriorated his mind to the point of him referring to it as a curse rather than a gift.
Wakfu arm: After fusing with the Eliacube, Qilby gains a powerful new arm made of pure Wakfu which he can fire energy blasts from, morph into weapons, and manipulate objects larger than him with.
Flight: While not shown, it can be assumed that Qilby is capable of flight by using the dragon wings on his head inherent to all Eliatropes.
Oh, believe me, little dragon, there's much worse than death.

~ Qilby threating Adamai.
“
You, idiot! You're just a pawn. Do what you want with this world, soon there will be nothing left of it.
„
~ Qilby explaining to Rushu his true intentions after he betrays him.
“
Ah, Yugo… It's such a pleasure to see you again, do you like the show? I never liked violence, but seeing idiots tear each other apart fascinates me. Compared the intellect, strength is nothing.
„
~ Qilby to Yugo after contemplating the fight between Sufokians and Shushus.
“
You're the ones who betrayed me, not the other way around, you disgraceful brothers! My dragon sister is the only one who ever supported me. And soon we'll be together again, to lead the Eliatrope people! And believe me, Yugo… you won't ruin my plans a second time.
„
~ Qilby angry with Yugo for accusing him of the chaos he caused by taking the Shushus into his world.
“
Believe me, I would've liked this to happen differently. Farewell, Yugo!
„
~ Qilby a few moments before killing Yugo.
“
Phaeris… Tell me where my Dofus is, and maybe I'll forgive you for my arm.
„
~ Qilby asking his nemesis in good terms to return his Dofus.
“
Phaeris: Qilby can feel his Dofus vibrations, and I'm afraid he won't take long to catch up with us. Qilby: You're such a good soothsayer, Phaeris. I'll never thank you enough for taking care of my property for all these centuries.
„
~ Phaeris warning of the arrival of Qilby to locate his Dofus and being answered by the same.
“
Qilby: Yugo… my good Yugo… you are irredeemable. What you must understand despite our disagreements, is what we've always had the same objectives: to serve our people. Yugo: You're confusing "serve our people" and "make our people serve you". You've only thought of yourself. We have nothing in common! I'm here, Qilby. Backstabbing is your specialty… not mine. Qilby: You've always been arrogant, Yugo.
„
~ Qilby reasoning with Yugo about the same goals in which they themselves should not differ, if not unify.
“
Qilby: I have an understanding and knowledge that you'll never have the slightest grasp of, Yugo. Unlike you, I keep the memory of each one of my past lives. I witnessed the birth of our people… from its rise, up until its fall. Yugo: Which you are responsible for! Qilby: Of course! There was nothing left to do on our planet, and nobody seemed to listen to me. Yugo: You provoked the Mechasms' attack, you knew your people would suffer fron it and would have to flee. Still you did it. You put our world in danger, and today, you're about to sacrifice another one. Qilby: You see things with the simplicity linked to your age and lack of maturity. If, like me, you had accumulated several thousands of years of knowledge, you would understand that we are nothing in the Krosmoz.
„
~ Qilby arguing that it is not worth risking his life for the World of Twelve and living beings to those who do not have the greatest interest.
“
Qilby: Living beings think that they're at the heart of all things, their daily life is most important. Let's leave that to small souls, Yugo. We have the luck of being immortal, of being able to sail the Krosmoz without worrying about anything, but flowing in the ediess of the universe. Creatures are born and disappear by the thousands as very second passes! Worlds are exploding and forming! Our people have the luck of witnessing this krossmic dance, and you would fight against that? Intending to defend a world that isn't yours? Yugo: That's where you're wrong, Qilby. This "world" is mine! I've met wonderful people here… and despite all your big speeches, I'm ready to give my life to defend it! Qilby: Your always had the ability to give your life for the most insignificant things, Yugo.
„
~ Qilby underestimating the value of mortal life forms that he does not consider neat.
“
Qilby: Phaeris? You're pledging allegiance to a brat, while knowing what I cloud bring to our people? Phaeris: You will never bring… what our people… have always needed. Qilby: Which is? Phaeris: Some heart!
„
~ Qilby disagreeing about Phaeris' act of bravery and his inability to know how to lead a people with pure love.
Trivia[]
We know that West has gathered the 6 dofus that existed and because of that it created a cataclysm that ended the Age of the Dofus. If he managed to reunite the 6 dofus, it theoretically means that he got his hands on the original Dofus of each member of the Council of Six.
In reality, it is not so, the six Dofus that Ogrest holds are the Dofus of the Osamodas dragons. There are 12 Dofus in all.
Concept art of Qilby for season 3.
It was originally planned that Qilby would return in the third season (possibly taking a role similar to Oropo or secondary), since the color of his wakfu's arm would have a greenish color, but early the idea was rejected, remaining as a simple cameo character. A single sketch of art would reveal its important apparition.
Out of the trio of main villains comprised of Nox, himself and Oropo, Qilby is the most selfish and evil as unlike the other two, he almost brought about the end of his own entire race for his own desires and deceived Yugo and Adamaï by pretending to be an ally of theirs and while they also tried to kill Yugo, Nox and Oropo never really showed any true sadism in harming their victims and were mostly affable, not to mention that they both believed that good things would come out of their misdeeds such as Nox draining many people of their Wakfu, killing them but only so he could rewind time to see his deceased family again and truly believing that the Eliacube spoke to him while Oropo believed that the Gods cared nothing for their people and wanted to destroy them so he could make a better world but the actions he took were extreme with one of the things he did causing Nox’s madness in the first place, but he loved his Brotherhood, viewed them as family and couldn’t bring himself to kill them while Qilby tricked people in order to achieve his goals, stabbed them in the back when the time was right, showed gleefulness in attacking Yugo and went as far as to try and kill anyone including his own family just to sail the Krozmos and continue researching lifeforms with his only excuses being that his family “didn’t care” about him while they very most likely did until his betrayal and that his constant deaths and revivals made him grow more and more unhinged.
Along with Oropo and Rushu, Qilby is one of the more important and influential antagonists in the series as his actions led to the events of Islands of Wakfu, Dofus and later Wakfu itself with him being the reason for Yugo and Adamaï's deaths and later rebirths, getting adopted by Alibert and meeting their friends and various villains such as Nox and eventually Oropo. While Qilby doesn't know Nox or Oropo he still invented the Eliacube after taking it from Orgonax thus allowing Oropo to accomplish his goal in destroying the Gods of the World of Twelve which caused many disasters like Ogrest's Chaos and the various deaths of innocents that ensued including Nox's family, it also helps that Qilby caused the Eliatrope-Mechasm War which led to some of his siblings' deaths including Nora and Efrim who both seemingly died destroying Orgonax which led to new races repopulating the World of Twelve, so in a way, Qilby helped Oropo and ironically helped bring life back into the world.
While his role in Season 4 is unknown so far, there is a possibility Qilby could either be an antagonist again, an anti-hero or anti-villain or maybe even a reluctant ally. He later turned out to be entirely neutral and didn’t aid Toross in his plans while dying after a fight with the Mechasm Lokus.
Qilby was the only one of the main antagonists of the first three seasons to have still been alive while his predecessor Nox and successor Oropo were both dead although he himself died later on in Season 4.
