Saint Dane

Saint Dane is the main villain of the Pendragon series. He wishes to corrupt Halla by finding the turning points of the seven worlds, creating the ten territories. He can change shape, taking the form of various people, animals, and smoke. His regular form is described as about seven feet tall with long gray hair and piercingly cold, blue eyes, until he burns his hair off, leaving "red, angry scars" across his scalp.

In The Soldiers of Halla, Saint Dane is betrayed by his seemingly loyal follower, Nevva Winter, whom he then murders. He created a massive dado army on Third Earth to wipe out the exiles of the Bronx Massacre, deminishing the positive energy of Solara and allowing him to re-mold Halla in his own image. He himself is a spirit of Solara, drawing his energy from his own, negative version of Solara. He created the flumes and gave a reason for the spirits of Solara to create the Travelers. Saint Dane was defeated when his own "followers" stood up to him.
