{{Nihongo|Barodius|バリオディウス 皇帝|Bariodiusu Kōtei|Japanese version '''Emperor Bariodius'''}} is the main antagonist of the [[Gundalian Invaders|third]] season of the anime series and in the first arc of the [[Mechtanium Surge|fourth]] season. He is the former [[wikipedia:Monarch|Emperor]] of [[Gundalia]] and the [[Darkus]] Brawler who led the [[Twelve Orders]].
He was mutated by [[Code Eve]] into an armored form and took the name of [[Mag Mel]].
==Information==
He was born into a family that had ruled over [[Gundalia]] for generations. He was the leader of the evil [[Twelve Orders]] who reigned over Gundalia and who sought to conquer [[Neathia]]. Barodius had been able to rule Gundalia because of his overwhelming strength and special ability to execute battles simultaneously. When Barodius took the throne, he decided to change many of his [[Emperor Barodius' Father|father]]'s policies, most notably the seeking the [[Sacred Orb]] despite his father having feared its power. This act sparked the [[Neathian-Gundalian War]].
It has been stated that Barodius disliked his father a great deal, such as when he called his father a "superstitious old fool," and laughed insanely when he destroyed his father's portrait. He wanted the Sacred Orb so he could obtain the [[DNA Code]] of every [[Bakugan]] in existence, his ultimate goal being to create the most powerful Bakugan in the universe with which he would rule all reality. His longtime childhood friend and most trusted confidant was [[Gill]], while most of the other Twelve Orders don't trust him or don't agree with what he is doing, but follow him out of fear.
==Personality==
Barodius is a power-hungry tyrant, seeking the Sacred Orb in spite of his father's fear of it. Because of his obsession with it, he ignores all of Nurzak's warnings. He has no respect towards his late father, believing him to be superstitious and weak. He also has an interest in the [[Dark Bakugan]]'s [[Forbidden Power]]s, which was the reason why he was willing to keep Ren.
He has zero tolerance for failure and foolish behavior, punishing Sid for losing the Element. His favoritism towards certain individual overrides his judgement and any semblance of friendship he has with others; after finding out Gill killed Kazarina, he has both Gill and Airzel killed.
He is a deceitful man, willing to used others who were deemed useful to him. He also tends to lose patience when things don't go well for him. Despite his arrogant, he was willing acknowledge his opponent's who power is strong, such as Dan's [[Drago]].
Barodius is ultimately proven to be a sore loser, as he's willing to take the Sacred Orb in spite of his defeat by [[Dan Kuso]], which caused him, and [[Phantom Dharak]] to be trapped in prison in a reverse dimension. As the result of the evil in his heart, he is mutated into [[Mag Mel]].
==Biography==
===Anime===
====[[Bakugan: Gundalian Invaders]]====
In ''[[A New Beginning]]'', Barodius first appeared in [[Dan]]'s vision, ordering the rest of the [[Twelve Orders]] Bakugan to destroy the [[Neathian]] Bakugan.
In ''[[Revelation]]'', he is seen on Gundalia asking the other Twelve Order members what they found out about the powerful [[Bakugan]] on [[Earth]]. Hearing of the unknown Bakugan's strength and power, he ordered [[Gill]] to make sure it came to their side instead of their enemy's, the [[Neathians]]. It was then that he sent [[Sid]] and [[Lena]] to learn more by visiting (and ultimately brawling) in [[Bakugan Interspace]].
He spoke to [[Gill]] briefly in ''[[Confrontation]]'', about how the recruitment of human battlers was coming along, and told [[Dharak]] that his services were not yet required.
In ''[[Hostile Takeover]]'', he watched the progress of the human recruits with the rest of the Twelve Orders. While Dharak noted that they weren't too bad, Barodius wasn't satisfied, ordering Ren to gather more brawlers by any means, having become more eager to obtain ultimate power and something he referred to only as "[[The Element]]."
In ''[[Escape From Darkness]]'', he, [[Gill]] and [[Kazarina]] demanded to know why Ren had failed to bring the [[Battle Brawlers]] over to their side. Kazarina mentions a rumor going around that Ren has come to sympathize with their enemies to which Barodius warns Ren that if he finds out he has betrayed him, he will be punished severely. He also appeared in a flashback about [[Ren]]'s past when Barodius chose him to lead his team to [[Earth]].
In ''[[The Element (Episode)|The Element]]'', after trying to beat [[Dan Kuso]] and failing, [[Sid Arkale]] was punished by Barodius for losing The Element. He gave Ren one last chance to set things right, and warned him not to mess it up.
In ''[[The Sacred Orb]]'', he and the rest of the Twelve Orders were furious with Ren's Team for their constant failures and ordered a preemptive strike on the Neathians. He and the other Twelve Order members fought the [[Battle Brawlers]] on Neathia in order to get the [[Sacred Orb]]. Barodius formed [[Dharak Colossus]] and used him to break down the Neathian's Second Shield. He then met Dan and [[Drago]] for the first time and battled against them. In the middle of Dharak and Drago's fight, the Sacred Orb sent Dharak and Barodius, along with all the other Gundalians, back to Gundalia. He wondered what powerful object could send all the Gundalians off of Neathia, and later suspected that the Element was responsible.
In ''[[The Secret of the Orb]], ''he tortured Kazarina as punishment for letting Mason escape and then failing to get him back, seemingly turning her against him.
In ''[[Divide and Conquer]]'', Gill informed him of [[Nurzak]] and Kazarina's rebellion and he managed to stop Nurzak before he could make a peace treaty with Neathia and attempt to overthrow him. They argue over the views of [[Barodius' Father]] who respected and feared the Sacred Orb's power, as does Nurzak, who offers Barodius a chance to call off the war on Neathia, but he refuses, calling his father nothing more than a superstitious old fool. It was then revealed that he sent Kazarina to spy on Nurzak to prevent his betrayal. He battled Nurzak and defeated him with Dharak's [[AirKor]] but he was thought to have killed Nurzak, but he was simply banished to the space in between dimensions.
In ''[[Colossus Dharak]]'', it was revealed that Barodius was only keeping Ren around because of the [[Forbidden Power]] that Linehalt possesses. He promised Ren that he would have the life in the sun he always dreamed of after they defeated the Neathians. He then launches a campaign to permanently destroy the renewed Second Shield. He easily defeats Dan and Drago and then pierces a hole in the Second Shield. After ordering Ren to finish Dan and Drago off, by promising to reveal the secrets of Linehalt's Forbidden Power, Ren decides to switch sides and betrays Barodius.
In ''[[Dragonoid Colossus (episode)|Dragonoid Colossus]]'', he fights Ren. He was winning until he taunted Ren for not be worthy enough to posses a Bakugan as powerful as Linehalt, causing Linehalt to unleash his Forbidden Power, which takes out Dharak and threatens to destroy the planet. The Sacred Orb then summoned its last line of defence, Dragonoid Colossus, which defeated Linehalt and disappeared in Dan's BakuMeter. After seeing this, Barodius decided to retreat but swore to get his hands on Dragonoid Colossus.
In ''[[Infiltrated]]'', he saw that Dan was the one who had possession of Dragonoid Colossus and ordered Gill and Airzel to separate him from the others so that he could battle him and take it personally. he later told the hypnotised Jake that he was going to help him destroy the Battle Brawlers. He later confronts Dan when he stumbles across the throne room.
In ''[[True Evolution]]'', he challenged Dan for the power of Dragonoid Colossus, saying Dharak was the only one worthy of possessing its powers, and called Dan pathetic for putting his friends before himself. They then battled, but despite Drago's new powers, Dharak easily overpowered him. Just as he was about to win Dan restored Drago's confidence and a brand new ability was unlocked which he used to defeat Barodius. Dan demanded Jake to be returned, to which he complied, but Jake was still under the effect of Gundalian hypnosis and he knocked Dan out.
In ''[[Final Strike]]'', he watched Dharak evolve into Phantom Dharak alongside Kazarina and Gill and when Kazarina asked if he wanted to rename Dharak he renamed it Phantom Dharak. After when Dharak evolves he says to Kazarina that he is going to Neathia and she is in charge while he is gone.
In ''[[Dream Escape]]'', he used Phantom Dharak to destroy the 3rd Shield and he was successful. Also he told the hypnotized children and the other Gundalian Soldiers to attack Neathia after Phantom Dharak destroyed the 3rd Shield.
In ''[[Code Eve (episode)|Code Eve]]'', he's warned by Nurzak about the Sacred Orb and yet continues to attack Neathia. When he reaches the castle, he wiped out the Neathian guards and goes to confront [[Queen Serena]] personally. He and [[Phantom Dharak]] also destroyed [[Gill]], [[Krakix]], [[Airzel]], and [[Strikeflier]]. Then Barodius travelled into the Neathian Palace, Dharak killed [[Stoica]], [[Lythirus]] and [[Dragonoid Colossus]]. In the throne room, when [[Dan]] is about to tackle him and [[Drago]] and [[Dharak]] are about to attack, the [[Sacred Orb]] warps them into a place in between dimensions. He is then informed that the [[Sacred Orb]] is called [[Code Eve]].
In ''[[Destiny Revealed]]'', he battles Dan and Drago in a final battle. He wins the first round but loses the rest. After he loses his battle against Dan, he stands Dharak again back at Neathia. He and Dharak fly to the Sacred Orb where it seemingly kills them.
====[[Bakugan: Mechtanium Surge]]====
{{Main|Mag Mel}}
Barodius made his first reappearance in ''[[Re-connection]]. ''Appearing in a flashback of the final battle [[Dan]] and him had, deciding who would get [[Code Eve]]'s powers.
In ''[[Behind the Mask]]'', Dan and Mag Mel were fighting with their Bakugan, [[Mechtogan]] and [[Mechtogan Titan]]s. It was an all out battle. Dan later breaks the mask of Mag Mel and it reveals part of Barodius' face and before their link was severed, it was revealed that Barodius and Dharak were not destroyed by Code Eve as originally thought, but merely imprisoned in a reverse dimension of Bakugan Interspace and therefore Barodius and Dharak were "reborn" as [[Mag Mel]] and [[Razenoid]], respectively.
In ''[[The Final Takedown]]'', a ghostly image of Barodius appears above Mag Mel, snarling at Dan, after he taunts Mag Mel by calling him his true name. He is also shown, along with Phantom Dharak, in a flashback of how they were transformed into Mag Mel and Razenoid, as their anger and hatred was multiplied within them until they became incased in an armour of evil.

In ''Bakugan Dimensions'', both Barodius and Kazarina can be found on the [[Gundalian Ship]].
