#usurna

Queen usurna did not actually have any properly raised in any way and that's why they're all identical, that's the appearance of trolls their heartstones makes. AAARRRGGHH!!! was given up as a baby, meaning his appearance was primarily influenced by the gum-gums, since those are who raised him.

AARRRGH!!! if you don't know why, just check all the related toa tags or AARRRGH!!!'s tags on my blog and you'll know why, he's a cutie and a sweetie but also so much capable or harm and has a lot of hidden backstory that makes me crazy

Draal. Since I was a child, for some reason, always had this fascination for this idiot that softens his heart and becomes this gentle but dumb guy. I like him, he was my second childhood crush

Angor Rot. This damn bitch has so much backstory and angst potential, that's the literal reason I made him a sister, like, all the redemption potential✨️

Toby. He's a nice guy, he's a supportive, crazy lad and I like him, he's a good friend and a great ally and also cares a lot for everyone

Vendel. Even if at first was very bad at Jim, with time he became like the wise guy you can search when your family doesn't have the answers, he helped both Jim and AARRRGH!!! And maybe talks to Blinky like if he was crazy but never told the secrets to the other members because he knew that was private, he's someone you can rely on and that's great. Since I was young, Vendel meant so much to me as this careful and smart leader. And yes, that's why I hate Usurna so much, she killed someone that was very dear to me

Nomura. With Nomura since the very beginning I had this strange fascination because she was a curious character, she was a bad guy, but overall she also was scary, intriguing, she scared me. Nomura is bad but changes because she was given a way to escape and then becomes good, unfortunately development went on vacation after that but I still consider her an interesting character with forgotten potential

Usurna. Despite I hate her, she's still a weird character I like because she's a strange character. I hate her, but she's still a very crazy crafted villain, she's not ugly, in essence she's physically beautiful, yet never redeems, she's bad because she can, not for circunstances, she wants power and nothing more. She's a very strange character because it's not the way men-lead series deal with female characters (at least of what I remember) and of all of those female villains that don't redeem I saw out there in other media, she's the one I remember the most, she's complex yet you can simplify her, not in saying "she's bad" but in saying "she believes power should be all for her". She's incredibly such a bad person but also so determined it scares me. That's why I compare her the most with Nyra from the Legend of the guardians movie

Jim Lake. Very very low on the list, sorry honey, I like you, but I like the rest more. He's nice, a cutie and great warrior, he's brave but also can be clumsy and he fears a lot, he faces trouble a lot, and fucking dammit he suffers a lot (both in books and in series) and yet he's still there fighthing because he knows he's the only exit of the great evil (as saw in the vision) so, yes, I like him for his bravery

Gogun the Gentle. MY SHAYLAAAA-!! no like, seriously. Gogun is such a funny character in Age of the Amulet, he's funny and yet fears a lot, and I mean A LOT, and yet he likes to dance and kittens and he loves someone and he's scared and yet stays because Jim needdd him, I mean, this guy is so nice, why wouldn't I not like him?

Claire Nuñez. Very low in the list too, sorry honey, I like you but you're not as interesting as the others. Claire is brave and strong, she learns quickly and is very skilled, she's not a damsel in distress but the reason she's so below in the list is because, compared to Nomura and Usurna, Claire doesn't have flaws, she fears but yet she fights, she wants to rescue her baby brother but doesn't understand the consequences, she goes forward the situation and yet she manages to make it end well? I think that, for being part of the main team, she's the ones with the less character development, and I think that was because the writer team didn't want to make a damsel in distress type of character so they made her strong believing that way there was no way people would think is misogynist, but they ended up making a character that is just not as interesting as the other members of the team (and then there's fanfiction fixing that, I love you community)

Special mentions to Eli, Shannon, proffesor Uhl, Gogun's pack of kittens, Sir Barks-a-lot and Bular

And only because I can, I convert this in a tag game, all ToA fandom, RISE!!!!!!!

Queen Usurna

How do I kill a troll because I hate this woman so much but also I like her as a character because she's genuinely so selfish and florked up in the head in a bad way. She throws the baby Krubera into a pit they have to climb out of on their own and then doesn't acknowledge them until they're useful. As long as they give up they'll all succeed because they're completely identical except for personal gender identity.

I made her look so DISGUSTED by the viewer.

As SOON as she heard the trollhunter was a human she started heading to the trollmarket wanting Jim DEAD. All she knew at the time was that he was a human. The crystals on her crown are pieces of the heartstone of the cavern. She's incredibly selfish and horrible. Yes I'll take every opportunity to take jabs at her.

But she's selfish, not sexist, her guard is comprised of multiple genders.

She has multiple blades hidden within her fur collar with various poisons based on what she's trying to do. If it avoids raising suspicion, she'll outsource her dirty work like with the changeling.

She sacrificed THIRTY of the babies to gunmar just so she'd be able to be on his side if it worked out for his side instead. She plays both sides because the only one she cares about herself.

Beautiful ladies, rulers.

Usurna. Queen of the Snow Kingdom of the Krubers. A very strict, serious lady. She is very afraid of Gunmar, so she actively cooperates with him so as not to fall into disgrace.

Bork, ruler of the Ridgelands. Her people were oppressed by Gunmar for a long time, pushing them out of the territories. As a result, he pushed it to the mountains, where people mainly live. Bork is a positive diplomatic girl, in politics she tries to be neutral, usually not to make alliances, to cope with all troubles on her own.

When villains take Jim seriously>>>>

I've mentioned before how weird a 180 Usurna took going from seeming like being the main one of the council wanting the make sure Kilahed isn't restored and going with the plan to dump the remains deep in the ocean where no one should have beeb able to retrieve them, to being Gunmar's secret ally the whole time.

But I'm choosing to believe that she genuinely didn't want Gunmar escaping, at least by the point when they were talking about saving Jim.

Warning: This post is not intended to offend anyone, the author is just sharing his observations

In this post, I decided to make up the top villains of trollhunters from the dumbest to the smartest (as for me, such tops are much more interesting than the placement of characters by strength, because in most cases you already know who will be in first place). The actions of villains from trollhunters only will be evaluated here.

10) Morgana:

Her main problem is that she does using her arsenal of spells on maximum and instead of attacking with shots of magical energy from a safe distance, she creates small energy daggers and goes into close combat, although this makes no sense (it is as if gunmar, fighting with his sword, tried not to hit the opponent with a sharp blade, but tried to hit him with the hilt of the sword). Her second fatal mistake is that she gave Angor freedom and was genuinely surprised when he betrayed her and decided to take revenge for everything she did to him (What prevented her from taking Angor's soul again so that he would not betray her at the most crucial moment?). And can someone explain to me why she didn't kill Merlin at the end of the third season? That is, she just tossed him from side to side, throughout the series she said how she wanted to kill him, and then just left him alive and went to deal with the hunter?

9) Otto:

For some reason, he sincerely believed that Gunmar cared about changelings and that Gunmar would lead them to a bright future. But what a surprise! It turns out Gunmar didn't care about changelings from the beginning, well, yes, he never hid his disdain for them. Someone will call it loyalty, but for me it's dibilism when you betray the current head of the Order of Janus and instead of taking the vacant throne yourself, you kindly waited for the tyrant who eventually used you.

8) Bular:

As for me, Bular is one of the most impulsive characters in the whole series. The most striking example is when in the second series, literally in the middle of the day, in a place where there could be unwanted witnesses, he decided to attack a new hunter and, as expected, was defeated. He also continues to underestimate his opponent, even when Jim killed stalking, it is not surprising that with such disregard for the enemy, he died before all the antagonists.

7) Goblin from the episode about creepslayerz:

He appeared relatively little on the screen compared to other villains, but during this time he, firstly, set Steve and Eli on Jim, and secondly, led the Creepslayerz on a false trail, thereby preventing them from finding out about their plans ahead of time.

6) Gunmar:

My main problem with Gunmar is that without asking for any proof, he believed all the nonsense that the Dictatus told him. I also think that Gunmar should be aware of the technical superiority of people (at least from Strickler's presentation) and that is why, instead of sending changelings to intercept at least a couple of warheads, he arranges their genocide. It's really funny that in the end Morgana needed a changeling to free him, and I'm just wondering what he would have done if Nomura and Strickler hadn't been in town? (I think he would catch a random person on the street and give him free troll language lessons)

5) Nomura:

She doesn't rank higher in the rankings just because she underestimated Jim in the first season. To be honest, I can't remember if she has had similar mistakes before, and compared to previous places, she is much less impulsive.

4) Angor:

As for me, Angor from the first season is a reference villain, almost all of whose actions are thoughtful and balanced decisions, for example, he reasonably did not trust Strickler and his promise that he would let him go as soon as trollhunter will die, so he did not immediately kill Jim, but only intimidated him so that our troll hunter had more reasons to make a deal with Angor and steal infernacopula. Well, the most striking example is that Angor will first study his enemy, and only then go into battle. if they hadn't made a cartoon villain out of him at the end of the first season, who, instead of immediately stabbing his defeated opponent, rolls up a long monologue about how weak our new hunter is without his friends, then in this top you Angor would have stood much higher (but despite this, he is still one of my favorite characters).

3) Usurna:

You might reasonably ask why she stands so high in the top if she supported Gunmar on an equal footing with Otto? To which I will answer that unlike Otto, who was looking forward to the return of the cruel lord, Usurna tried her best not to let Gunmar escape from the dark lands and joined him only when she knew for sure that he had returned, in fact, she simply chose the strongest, and therefore the winning side. And I think it's worth admitting that no matter how mean a bitch she is, she can reasonably reason that by sacrificing a pair of cubs of Kruber, she will thereby delay Gunmar's desire to attack her people for a sufficiently long time, and if the dark lord still falls, she can say that her children were simply kidnapped (which was common at that time (if we recall the background of the creation of changelings) so no matter how you look at it, in any case, it remains a winner.

2) Strickler:

(who could doubt that he would be so high in the ranking) I am still sure that he helped in the liberation of Gunmar only out of fear of Bular, because as soon as Bular fell, Strickler immediately took the vacant throne, leaving Gunmar in the dark lands. Strickler, as well as Angor, will not be the first to rush into battle, he will most likely just shift all the dangerous and dirty work to someone else, since the status allows. Also, he always plans an escape plan if something goes wrong, if he hadn't created a magical connection with Barbara then he wouldn't have had any leverage on Jim and therefore the hunter wouldn't have had any reason to protect Strickler from Angor. He is not in the first place only because instead of hiring a hired sniper who would quickly kill a young hunter and left, no! instead, he awakens an ancient killer who, if he can take the ring, will kill his unfortunate master first thing. Although if he also awakened Angor in order to strengthen his status as the head of the Order, then there are no complaints, but due to the fact that in the series itself Strickler said that he brought Angor only to kill Jim, then alas it was too unjustified a risk

1) Dictatious:

This AU was made by me and @elegantjellyfishwerewolf

First two parts: part 1 / part 2

And while Claire is hanging out in the Darklands, at the Trollmarket everything is not so good... The fact is that if Gunmar would catch Claire and take the amulet from her along with the staff of the shadow, then nothing would prevent him from doing the same trick with the mark and the amulet and open the bridge from the other side.The team of trollhunters is suppressed. Nomura is ready to kill Claire when she will see her. Jim is afraid of losing another loved one (I think he won't stand another death of his loved one person). Angor feels used again. Claire was one of the first people he began to trust after he finally got his soul back, and the theft of the staff by his own student literally knocked the ground out from under his feet (he understands that he has become attached to the girl and that he would not like to see her die). The rest of the team are either worried about Claire or afraid because of the threat of Gunmar's return.Due to the panic, Queen Usurna arrives at the Trollmarket and gathers a council of elders, at which she puts forward a demand to dismantle the bridge and hide its fragments so that no one else will find them. Nomura is even ready to renounce the amulet and not interfere with the council's decision in any way. Blinky is extremely dissatisfied with the current situation and openly tells the trollhunter that she has to respond to any call and that despite the fact that Nomura left the order, she still remains a hostage of the fear in front of Gunmar. Nomura is not immediately available, but still agrees to go to the Darklands. But she also says that she is not going there to save Claire, but to return the amulet and not let Gunmar a chance to escape.At this time, Claire finds her brother in the Darklands and, just like in the original, she manages to free Enrique, but she herself is captured by gumgums who lead her to Gunmar.The Grubers are already going to pick up the fragments of the bridge, but at this time Nomura, Angor and Blinky come to the rest of the team. They knock out Usurna's soldiers and use a whirlwind to transfer all the fragments to a safe place.The team of trollhunters understands that it is impossible to delay any longer. And therefore, with the help of the dark magic Angor becomes possessed by Kanjigar, and after the spirit of the last trollhunter replaces the amulet and opens the bridge. Nomura, Blinky, Aargh and Angor are going to the Darklands for Claire (Nomura and Angor say they only go for the amulet and staff), Draal, as in the original, remains to guard the passage of bridge.At this time, Claire is brought to Gunmar's throne room where he notices her amulet and staff and orders his soldiers to take them away from her, but Claire quickly deals with them with the help of the staff. Then Gunnar decides to personally kill Claire and take the "key to his release" from her. A long fight ensues between them during which Claire breaks her daggers on Gunmar's thick skin, he also takes advantage of this and breaks her left arm and leg, simultaneously crushing a couple of ribs and breaking her head.Claire thinks this is the end, but then the trollhunter team arrives. Blinky and Aaarrrgha take Claire and leave while Nomura and Angor return their weapons and stay to detain Gunmar. Blinky and Aargh also stumble upon the Dictatious with a detachment of gumgums. There is a commotion, during which Blinky snatches one of soldiers’ spear and blinds his brother with it. Nomura and Angor also join the team after they think they have weakened Gunmar for a while. They run to the bridge, but along the way they are squeezed from all sides by Gunmar's army. At this moment Draal appears on the vortex and helps his friends get out before the bridge will close. Angor urgently transfers Claire, who is in a dying state, to the shadow realm, where he performs a ritual to inject dark magic into Claire in order to save her life.Gunmar takes advantage of the fact that Draal has left his post and, together with the Dictatous and several gumgums, gets out to the

surface. Strickler was discouraged by Gunmar's return, but still remains cold-blooded and pretends that he has been waiting for the dark lord's return all this time and brings him to Order of Janus.Claire wakes up in the infirmary inside the Heartstone. She continues to feel the echoes of pain, but they are not as strong as in the Darklands. Claire also notices that one of her strands has turned gray.
