Ok this is just bizarre enough that I have to answer it -

first off, props for stanning Polytheus, you’re a rare breed and should be cherished, second, he’s not dead (not that I know of). For this:

I was just compelled to reference a lyric from the Chim Chim Cheree Allan Sherman parody, because that’s where my brain went when I heard “naga” (2:10) :

“My chair is upholstered in real Naugahyde - when they killed that naga, I sat down and cried! (he moved to Chica-ga when that naga died!)”

I never did warm to Frafdo. The newfound understanding between the humans and the two creatures really ended up being just the humans and Maxxor. Frafdo revealed a bit of a mean streak to those weaker than himself that he never made up for. Before the turning point, he took the role of a willing lackey, enthusiastic to mistreat the humans in ways Maxxor himself was too noble for. After the turning point, he had practically no lines. 

I chalk this up to the strange way the show allocates its screentime. A lot happens in the closing act of Bodhran and the cast is suddenly much wider when Dractyl lands his house in the courtyard. Other characters are prioritized at that point so I get why he falls to the background. 

The result is that Frafdo showed himself to have a nasty streak to those weaker than him, then, taking his cues from Maxxor whom he is completely obedient to, ceases to mistreat them but have anything to make up for it. 

Even for a series with characters with VAs from Dragon Ball, Aa’une’s forms are a lot. I’m not a character designer, but I would say perhaps his True Form looks like that to separate any idea of him as a “person” from the “he’s the big bad guy, no remorse when the fellas destroy him,” since with that design there’s no longer a “man’s” face and instead a tentacle pillar with teeth. 

Unless you’re talking about the Avatar form, since I had a look and don’t see the True form in the Ultimate Guide? I don’t mind the look of that one. Huge glow-y tendrilled centaur.

Also, Mina, you never knew your queen as closely as Eclipsa did. So you have NO right to say that to Solaria’s daughter. In fact, I bet if Solaria was still around, she would behead you for saying that.

I think Mina would have known Solaria “the warrior” very well but not Solaria “the mom”
