Giygas
Character from EarthBound by Shigesato Itoi / Nintendo
The Universal Cosmic Destroyer — an alien entity whose mind has been consumed by its own power, reduced to an incomprehensible force of pure malice that can only be defeated through prayer.
Also known as: Giegue, The Universal Cosmic Destroyer
What They Know
- Cannot be damaged by ANY conventional attack — only Paula's Pray command works
- The Devil's Machine suppresses his power and what remains of his sanity
- His influence corrupts the world through proxies: Mani Mani statue, cults, monsters, and Pokey
- Was originally an alien who studied PSI but his power destroyed his own mind
- His dialogue during the final battle is fragmented and deeply unsettling
- Resides in the Cave of the Past — the party must transfer their souls into robot bodies to reach him
- Nine rounds of prayer are needed to defeat him — the last reaches the player themselves
