Melqart is a Heretic God in Campione!

Appearance

Melqart has a huge size, comparable to large buildings at ten-odd meters (in the Light Novels, his height is described as being merely two meters), and a muscular appearance. He has a long, white mustache and beard and an unkempt hair that leaves an impression. His attire seems to be some form of armor and a crown.

His outfit was also described as a worn-out mantel, a dirty old rag, a leather breastplate, and sandals.

Personality

Melqart has a proud personality, like all Heretic Gods, and considers humans lower than himself. He was also angered when Verethragna revived him just for the sake of battle.

He is also concerned with the condition of the Mediterranean Sea, as the way the people of Sardinia and other locations treated it angered him to the point he was going to kill them all.

History

Sometime in the past, Melqart fought against Verethragna and injured him. Verethragna's wounds have still not healed completely. In the Light Novels, this battle had happened only a few days previous and was witnessed by Lucretia Zola.

It is revealed in the Light Novels that Melqart was known by many names in the ancient world, including Baal. As Baal, Melqart was eventually corrupted into the Judeo-Christian demon Beelzebub, which gave him his authority over locusts and flying insects.
