Thaedus is the overarching protagonist of the Image comic cook series Invincible. Thaedus initially worked for the Viltrumite Empire before he defected from them. Thaedus realized just how wrong and misguided the Viltrumites are for killing alien species to make them the superior race. The social Darwinist philosophy of the Viltrumites caused Thaedus to create the Scourge Virus that had resulted in the death of 99.9% of the Viltrumite population. With the Viltrumites in their weakened state, Thaedus created the Coalition of Planets to save the remaining alien species from the Viltrumites.
What Makes Him A Guile Hero?
- Upon realizing the evil of the Viltrumite Empire, Thaedus defected from them and fought back by creating a special Virus called the "Scourge Virus" which will only kill the Viltrumites.
