22[[folder:Vrellnexians]]
23!!''The Vrellnexians''
24!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Series/AgentsOfSHIELD''
25
26A race of monstrous alien beasts which Team Coulson encounter on a mysterious space vessel.
27----
28* AdaptationalNonsapience: In the comics they stood upright and engaged in [[SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil commercial slave trading]] (even trying to enslave the Asgardians in their first appearance), while the MCU Vrellnexians seem to just be animals of prey.
29* AdaptationDyeJob: Vrellnexians had a light grayish purple skin and [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] in the comics, but here have a blend of gray and blue for their skin and have darker, less striking eyes.
30* AscendedExtra: The Vrellnexians are a pretty obscure alien race from Marvel lore, to the point that it was only due to a human calling them one by name that anyone made the connection.
31* FangsAreEvil: They have very sharp fangs, which you will definitely notice when they kill you in painful fashion.
32* InsectoidAliens: They are supposedly this, but have characteristics that are evocative of reptiles.
33* RoguesGalleryTransplant: They were enemies of Thor in the comics, believe it or not, and the species have never menaced S.H.I.E.L.D. agents before.
34* XenomorphXerox: They've been designed to look closer to [[Franchise/{{Alien}} xenomorphs]] in comparison to their look from the comics.

38!!''The Xartan''
39!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Series/{{Runaways|2017}}''
40
41A long-lived race of shapeshifters.
42----
43* {{Shapeshifting}}: Xartans have this ability.
44* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: The introduction of this race sidesteps using the skrulls, another shapeshifting alien race whose roles from the source material they're taking. Incidentally enough, the similarities between the two has been acknowledged in the comics to the point that skrulls are hostile towards xartans for this reason.

52!!''Morag''
53!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'' | ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' | ''[[WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021 What If…?]]''
54
55A planet whose civilization has become extinct a long time ago. This is where the Temple of the Power Stone is located.
56----
57* AlienSky: In the sky of Morag, two sister-planets or large moons are clearly visible.
58* TheBusCameBack: Morag appears for the first time at the beginning of ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'', and is even the first alien planet seen in the MCU (not including the Nine Realms). 5 years later, the planet makes a surprising reappearance in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' when the Avengers travel back in time to retrieve the Infinity Stones.
59* DramaticThunder: In 2014, the planet has a thunderstorm the day Peter (and later the Avengers) come to find the Power Stone. It gets especially loud the moment Korath and his soldiers arrive, signaling that they are bad news.
60* FloodedFutureWorld: According to WordOfGod, Morag is entirely covered by the ocean the majority of the time. However, every three hundred years, the water lowers enough for the surface of the planet to be accessible.
61* GhostPlanet: At some point, the planet had a civilization living on it, but something destroyed them a long time before and left the planet a volcanic ruin. It is strongly hinted to have been the deed of the Power Stone that's inside the Orb.
62* MythologyGag: In the comics, "Morag" is the name of a Kree historical person who was one the first leaders of his people.
63* WaterGeyserVolley: There are lots of powerful geysers on Morag's surface. At one point, a geyser proves to be strong enough to propel Peter Quill's spaceship high into the air while he was trying to fly off the planet, nearly causing it to crash.

68!!!'''Species:''' Unknown

70!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'' [[note]]Hologram only[[/note]]
71
72An ancient civilization that lived on Morag but was wiped out under mysterious circumstances.
73----
74* AlienAnimals: They had pet dogs that look exactly like those from Earth.
75* HumanAliens: From what is shown by Peter Quill's holograms, they seem to be pretty much identical to normal human beings.
76* PosthumousCharacter: They all died out long before the events of the movie for unknown reasons, with all we can see of them being skeletons and holograms.
77* RagnarokProofing: Long after their civilization has been reduced to nothing but ruins, the forcefield protecting the Power Stone in the Temple Vault is still active.
78* TempleOfDoom: The "Temple of the Power Stone" is an ancient vault within the ruins of an alien city that conceals one of the most powerful and dangerous artifacts in the galaxy. Subverted in that, contrary to Rhodey's expectations, the temple has no booby traps or anything aside from the forcefield protecting the Power Stone.
79* UrbanRuins: The only thing that remains of their civilization is an ancient city of ruined buildings.

82[[folder:Orlonis]]
83!!''Orlonis''
84!!!'''Species:''' Orlonis
85!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' | ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'' | ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' | ''Film/TheGuardiansOfTheGalaxyHolidaySpecial''
86
87A species of rodent-like creatures that can be found on Morag and a few other worlds.
88----
89* BoundAndGagged: While searching for Yondu's fin prototype on the Ravagers' spaceship, Groot finds an Orloni and binds it tightly with its branches before bringing it to Yondu and Rocket.
90* ButtMonkey: These poor creatures have to be the most abused beings in the entire galaxy. Pretty much every scene they appear in, something bad happens to them:
91** When Peter Quill goes to Morag to find the Power Stone in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'', he starts kicking all the Orlonis in his path while listening to music, and even forcibly grabs one to use it as a microphone at one point.
92** Some Orlonis are forced to participate in a bar game on Knowhere in which they are eaten one after another by a ferocious F'saki until there's only one left.
93** At the beginning of ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'', some Orlonis get pushed around by Baby Groot on the Sovereign Homeworld, and one of them is even forced to be his ride against its will.
94** Later, Baby Groot has to find a prototype head-fin on the Ravagers' spaceship to free Yondu and Rocket from their cell, but he misunderstands and brings them (among other things) an agitated Orloni that he has tied up.
95** During Ego's Expansion, several Orlonis try to run away from the spreading spore on an unknown planet, but they aren't fast enough and get consumed.
96** Upon arriving on Morag for the Time Heist in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', Black Widow kicks an Orloni away.
97** Shortly after, 2014!Peter Quill shows up and starts kicking the Orlonis around and using one as a microphone once again before throwing it away.
98** Cosmo killed one in the Holiday Special and dropped it at the other Guardians' feet as her "Christmas present" to them.
99* EatenAlive: A few of them get eaten alive by a F'saki during a bar game on Knowhere.
100* FantasticVermin: They are treated as common pests that can be found everywhere in the galaxy, similar to rats.
101* HissBeforeFleeing: After being kicked by Black Widow, an Orloni hisses at her right before running away.
102* HorseOfADifferentColor: During the battle against the Abilisk on the Sovereign Homeworld, Baby Groot sees an Orloni and decides to mount it to ride around, despite the creature's struggle.
103* RecurringExtra: They play minor roles in at least two or three scenes in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'', ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'', ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', and ''Film/TheGuardiansOfTheGalaxyHolidaySpecial'', making them the most frequently appearing alien animals in the MCU.
104* RunOrDie:
105** On Knowhere, the Orlonis are used for a bar game in which they have to run to escape from a hungry F'saki. The last one to get eaten is declared the winner.
106** When Ego initiates his Expansion, they have no choice but try to outrun the spreading spore to avoid being consumed.
107* SitcomArchnemesis: In ''Vol 2'', they become this to Baby Groot, who's always hitting them, riding them or capturing them every time he sees them.

110!!Sakaar
111[[folder:In General]]
112!!''Sakaar''
113[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3887.JPG]]
114!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/ThorRagnarok'' | ''[[WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021 What If...?]]''
115
116->''"Fear not, for you are found. You are home. There is no going back. No one leaves this place. But what is this place? The answer is Sakaar. Surrounded by cosmic gateways, Sakaar lives on the edge of the known and the unknown. It is a collection point for all lost and unloved things, like you, but here at Sakaar you are significant, you are valuable. Here you are loved. And no one loves you more than The Grandmaster. He is the original, the first lost and the first found. The creator of Sakaar and father of the Contest of Champions. Where once you were nothing, now you are something."''
117
118A harsh and barbaric planet connected to many of the universe's wormholes.
119----
120* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Because of the planet's diversity, it's not uncommon to see a wide range of skin tones like red and blue.
121* BreadAndCircuses: Really, the only thing that keeps a violent scavenger anarchy like Sakaar from tearing itself apart are the gladiatorial games that serve the double purpose of slaking the populace's rage and bloodlust, not to mention culling the numbers of rebellious warriors who can potentially start inconvenient revolutions.
122* CrapsackWorld: Sakaar is a LandfillBeyondTheStars that is ruled by an egotistical and lazy tyrant who frequently enslaves those who accidentally end up on his planet to fight in gladiator games for his own amusement.
123* EarlyBirdCameo: Sakaaran mercenaries appeared as antagonists in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' ahead of their planet's proper debut in ''Thor: Ragnarok''.
124* GladiatorGames: One of the planet's main attractions are its brutal arena fights. The planet's diverse population means many powerful and unique beings are available to fight.
125* LandfillBeyondTheStars: The planet has a massive junkyard filled with trash from all over the universe.
126* {{Mooks}}: Humanoid Sakaaran mercenaries serve as Ronan and Korath's primary henchmen in ''Guardians of the Galaxy''. Many are also part of Thanos' army.
127* MulticulturalAlienPlanet: Because so many wormhole trips end on Sakaar, its population is very diverse and made of up beings from many different planets. Actual native Sakaarans don't even appear on the planet until TheStinger.
128* NarniaTime: Time works... ''[[TimeyWimeyBall differently]]'' on Sakaar, either as a cause or an effect of all the portals. Sometimes it appears to pass [[YearInsideHourOutside slower]] (Loki arrives on Sakaar several weeks before Thor, despite being thrown out of the Bifrost by Hela only seconds earlier), but on other occasions it appears to pass [[YearOutsideHourInside faster]] (the Grandmaster says he would be millions of years old elsewhere in the universe, and Valkyrie doesn't seem to have aged at all since first encountering Hela many millennia ago, before Thor and Loki were even born).
129* PortalCrossroadWorld: ... Kind of. It's ''really'' easy to end up in this junk heap, but somewhat harder to leave. Not ''too'' difficult, but by the time travelers continue their journeys they usually [[StrangerInAFamiliarLand identify as Sakaaran]] - if only because time works differently on Sakaar.
130* ServantRace: The humanoid Sakaarans are servants of the Kree accusers and of Thanos
131* SparedByTheAdaptation: In ''Planet Hulk'', Sakaar is destroyed by the ship Hulk arrived in. Here, it survives after the Hulk's departure.
132* SuperSargassoSea: In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, ''any'' BlindJump will add you to the [[LandfillBeyondTheStars endless stream of junk]] falling from the [[PortalCrossroadWorld myriad portals]] hovering above Sakaar.
133* UnnaturallyLoopingLocation: Once imprisoned on Sakaar and speaking with Korg, Thor tries to run around the gladiators' cell and determine the area's size and shape. But as soon as he disappears around the circle's bend he reappears right behind Korg.
134-->'''Korg:''' Aw yea no, this whole thing is a circle. But not a real circle, more like a [[AlienGeometries freaky circle]].\
135'''Thor:''' This doesn't make any sense.\
136'''Korg:''' Nah nothing makes sense here, man. The only thing that does make sense ''is'' that nothing makes sense.

143!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' | ''Film/ThorRagnarok'' | ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' | ''[[WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021 What If...?]]''
144
145The brutal natives of the planet Sakaar. There are two types of Sakaarans, the more humanoid Sakaarans which served as underlings of Ronan the Accuser in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}'' and the more insectoid ones appearing in ''Film/ThorRagnarok''. The former reappear as {{Mooks}} in Thanos' forces in ''Film/AvengersEndgame''.
146----
147* AlienBlood: They have yellow blood.
148* TheCameo: A few of them can be spotted in the crowds of the second post-credit scene of ''Film/ThorRagnarok''.
149* CreatorCameo: Creator/JamesGunn plays the unmasked one in ''Film/{{Guardians of the Galaxy|2014}}''
150* DarkIsEvil: They wear dark-looking armor and work with Ronan the Accuser, who himself is no bright daisy and is unquestionably villainous.
151* InsectoidAliens: The native Sakaarans have bug-like appearances underneath their armor. Miek's subspecies is the most insectoid of the two variants.
152* {{Mooks}}: When Kraglin wonders how the Guardians will fight past an army of them, Drax says he thinks of them as "paper people", which Kraglin immediately agrees with, suggesting they're known for being easy to kill. Coming from Drax, who doesn't understand metaphors, this speaks volumes. Sure enough, the Guardians mow through them with ease, and Yondu takes on a squad of them single-handed before any of them can even move.
153* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: There's very little that differentiates them from the Chitauri from ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', seeing as how they're both grey alien Mooks that serve as underlings of Cosmic warlords.
154* ZergRush: The Sakaaran soldiers that serve Thanos and Ronan rely on their huge numbers to overwhelm their enemies.

173->''"My name is Grandmaster. I preside over a little harlequinade called the Contest of Champions."''
174
175Brother of Taneleer Tivan, the Collector, the Grandmaster is the hedonistic ruler of Sakaar and the one behind the planet's gladiator games.
176----
177* AccidentalMisnaming: He's not very good with names, calling Asgard "Assberg" and Thor "Lord of Thunder" instead of "God", much to his annoyance.
178* AdaptationalComicRelief: The Grandmaster from the comics is a serious and dangerous villain, while his MCU counterpart is much more of a comedic goofball.
179* AdaptationalDumbass: In the comics, the Grandmaster is [[TheChessmaster a brilliant schemer]] capable of devising the most complex tactics, to the point that that Thanos himself calls him "the strategist supreme" and considers him his most difficult opponent during his quest to collect the Infinity Gems. The MCU version of the Grandmaster, on the other hand, is a bumbling idiot who gets manipulated with ease by Loki.
180* AdaptationalDyeJob: He's not covered in blue skin like his counterpart in the comics, but he's got some blue accents in his costuming and makeup. (The director's twofold reasoning for this was that Goldblum had ''already'' played a blue-skinned extraterrestrial in 1988's ''Film/EarthGirlsAreEasy'', and he wanted to emphasize the actor's natural charm.)
181* AdaptationalNiceGuy: While shown to be evil, the MCU's Grandmaster does away with the worst aspects of both his comic book counterpart and the Red King from ''ComicBook/PlanetHulk''. The Grandmaster in the comics delighted in being called "sorrow" by his victims, while the Red King was a sociopath that caused untold and needless destruction (such as unleashing alien parasites on the populace) because it was "his right, his duty, and his pleasure". The cinematic version is certainly a saint compared to them.
182* AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, the Grandmaster is an Elder of the Universe and nigh PhysicalGod. Here, he doesn't display any real power at all aside from slowed aging.
183* AdaptationSpeciesChange: He doesn't appear to be an Elder of the Universe in this version and is depicted more as a mortal with lots of influence. (That said, Goldblum has described him as the former in an interview by way of claiming that he was not affected by Thanos's Snap in ''Endgame''.)
184* AffablyEvil: The man is certainly a bit unhinged and, you know, enslaves people and forces them to fight to the death for his amusement. But he's also fairly polite and nice to his underlings, with standards and forging (incredibly odd) friendships with those beneath him.
185-->'''Loki:''' He's a lunatic, but he can be amenable.
186* AlienGenderConfusion: The Grandmaster is an alien being and he's visibly confused about Thor's gender when he first sees him, though it doesn't stop him from hitting on him.
187* AlternateSelf: He has variants on [[Recap/WhatIfS1E7WhatIfThorWereAnOnlyChild Earth-72124]] and [[Recap/WhatIfS1E8WhatIfUltronWon Earth-29929]].
188* AmbiguouslyRelated: Though the Collector and the Grandmaster are supposedly brothers per WordOfGod, there's nothing in-universe that reveals or even implies that this is the case.
189* BadBoss: He's a downplayed version of this trope. He's a bit peeved that his second would think him so petty to execute someone for interrupting, but public executions ''are'' still a possibility for people who fail him.
190* BaitAndSwitchComment: The Grandmaster tells a begging Carlo that he is "officially pardoned... from life" before he executes him with the Melt Stick.
191* BewareTheSillyOnes: He's Jeff Goldblum AdamWesting as [[Franchise/FlashGordon Ming the Merciless]]. Between his goofy personality, PorkyPigPronunciation, and general {{Cloudcuckoolander}} behavior, it's hard not to smile and laugh at him. That all being said though, he also regularly kidnaps people and forces them to fight to the death for his amusement. Furthermore, he also randomly uses an ultra-tech staff to [[ImMelting melt prisoners]] into disgusting, stinky puddles for little more reason than he can.
192* BigBadEnsemble: While Hela is the primary villain of ''Thor: Ragnarok'' and is the main threat of the movie, The Grandmaster is the thorn for Thor's main goal of escaping Sakaar. [[DiscOneFinalBoss He later gets out of the picture after Thor, Banner and Valkyrie escaped, leaving only Hela as the main threat]].
193* BlackmailIsSuchAnUglyWord: Sure, The Grandmaster keeps hundreds of kidnapped warriors to fight in gladiatorial matches to the death, but "slave" is just such a mean word; he prefers the term "prisoners with jobs."
194* TheCaligula: He's theatrical, maniacal, hedonistic, and lords over a civilization, which is not a good combination. Under his rule, Sakaar even uses slaves and [[BreadAndCircuses hosts brutal gladiator fights like ancient Rome]].
195* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Comes with the territory of being a Jeff Goldblum character, really, but yes, he is quite an odd duck.
196* CompositeCharacter: In the film, he takes the Red King's role from ''ComicBook/PlanetHulk'' as the ruler of Sakaar and the one behind Hulk's enslavement.
197* CoolShip: He has a big collection of ships, including one that he uses for his orgies and birthdays that ends up being used by Thor, Bruce Banner, and Valkyrie to escape Sakaar through the Devil's Anus.
198* DepravedBisexual: Throughout the film, he shows attraction towards Valkyrie, Thor, Loki (who it is heavily implied he has slept with), his two harem girls, and in a deleted scene a [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext pair of cotton plush tentacles]]. [[ExtremeOmnisexual Truthfully, "bisexual" might even be underplaying it]].
199* DidntSeeThatComing: He certainely didn't expect Thor to be overjoyed rather than terrified when he sees that the Champion he has to fight in the arena is none other than Hulk.
200* DiscOneFinalBoss: He's the antagonist of the Sakaaran portion of ''Ragnarok'', but Hela serves as the main antagonist of the overall film.
201* EarlyBirdCameo: He's one of the [[DancePartyEnding dancers]] that appears during the CreativeClosingCredits for ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2''.
202* EvenEvilHasStandards: He's somewhat disgusted by his assistant Topaz's brutality at times, such as when she suggests killing Loki for merely interrupting.
203* EvilLaugh: Watching Hulk brutally beat the crap out of Thor makes him have a little laugh.
204* FalseReassurance: When the captured Carlo is terrified of being executed and tries to apologize for his faults, the Grandmaster tells him that he is pardoned, much to his great relief... However, he then clarifies that he meant "pardoned from life" and executes Carlo with his Melt Stick.
205* FashionableAsymmetry: On his left arm, he wears a longer, golden sleeve that is absent on the right. Unlike most examples of this trope, it's more likely to establish him as eccentric rather than as awesome (while the ''Marvel Studios Visual Dictionary'' notes on his outfit say it's "for surprises").
206* FlatWhat: His reaction when he sees Thor manage to slam the Hulk into the walls of the arena by hitting him with his own hammer during their gladiator fight.
207-->'''Grandmaster:''' …What?
208* GoldColoredSuperiority: He rules over Sakaar and is the only Sakaaran shown to dress in gold.
209* GracefulLoser: After having been overthrown by the Sakaarans in TheStinger, he congratulates them on having won the revolution and tells them that they all deserve a pat on the back.
210* {{Guyliner}}: He wears blue eyeliner.
211* HandRubbing: He does this when the Hulk is about to enter the arena to fight Thor.
212* HandSignals: In a deleted scene, the Grandmaster discusses several "universal signs" with Topaz after Loki and Valkyrie fail to understand his hand sign for "Go".
213* TheHedonist: His main desire is to be entertained, no matter who has to die to make that happen.
214* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: He welcomes Loki, of all people, among his circle of friends. Of course, Loki is secretly plotting to overthrow him. Even after being told that he's the brother of Thor, the Grandmaster still trusts Loki enough to send him on a mission to stop Thor and Hulk from escaping Sakaar.
215* HugeHolographicHead: The Grandmaster projects his entire body standing over his city, as tall as a skyscraper, though he still talks in a normal, overly casual voice while addressing the city this way.
216* HumanAlien: Take away his goofy clothes and makeup, and he looks no different than your average Earthling.
217* ILied: Although he promised Thor to release him if he manages to defeat his champion, he treacherously activates his obedience disc once he starts to gain the upper hand on Hulk to ensure that he doesn't win.
218* ImmortalImmaturity: According to him, he's millions of years old by any other planet's standards and [[WordOfSaintPaul Goldblum]], he's even older than that, having been born shortly after the Big Bang itself. Judging by his hedonism, the eons clearly haven't taught him anything.
219* ItsLikeIAlwaysSay: Apparently, every time Valkyrie comes to sell him another gladiator, he always compliments her by telling her she's "the best" since she brought him his champion, which is something Topaz is really tired of hearing.
220-->'''Grandmaster:''' Topaz, about Scrapper 142, what do I always say? "She is the..." And it starts with a "B".\
221'''Topaz:''' Booze hag.\
222'''Grandmaster:''' No, "best." I was thinking about "best." 'Cause I always say you're the best.
223* LargeAndInCharge: Jeff Goldblum is already enormous (6' 4½" 1,95 m), and here he's playing an unequivocal ruler.
224* LargeHam: He's a SmugSnake utterly full of himself with a distinctively Jeff Goldblum delivery.
225* LaughablyEvil: While he's [[TheCaligula an insane tyrant]] who delights in having his gladiatorial slaves fight to the death, he's also an eccentric and oddly affable goofball who [[HamAndCheese utterly hams it up]] in the delightfully unique Jeff Goldblum style every time he's onscreen. Also, [[InsistentTerminology he prefers that you refer to his slaves as "prisoners with jobs"]].
226* LightIsNotGood: Even though he dresses in gold, he is depicted as the hedonistic ruler of Sakaar where he has people kidnapped and fighting in GladiatorGames for his own entertainment.
227* MinorInsultMeltdown: Subverted. When the Grandmaster is discussing Hulk's escape with Loki and Valkyrie. Loki speaks out of turn, which prompts Topaz to hand him the deadly melt stick. The Grandmaster is shocked and tells her to stand down.
228-->'''Grandmaster:''' Why are you handing me the melt stick? He was interrupting. That's not a capital violation.
229* MysteriousPast: The twisted instructional "tunnel" that new champions ride through before meeting him calls him "the first lost and the first found". And he indicates that he may be millions of years old, possibly due to the strange temporal effects of Sakaar. With regards to how he wound up ruling Sakaar, that's all we hear.
230* NonActionBigBad: Even though he's one of the main villains of the film, he doesn't seem to have any fighting skills whatsoever and leaves the action to his henchmen. The most he does is use his Melt Stick to execute prisoners.
231* NoNameGiven: Unlike his brother, we never hear his true name (En Dwi Gast) on screen; merely his epithet.
232* OurFounder: He's the one who founded Sakaar, and his palace has a statue of himself holding a massive blaster over his head while a woman clings to his right leg in the hall, as shown when Thor and Loki fight some guards there during their escape.
233* PlanetBaron: He is the founder of Sakaar and rules over the entire planet.
234* PublicExecution: Following the disappearance of Hulk, the Grandmaster tells Loki and Valkyrie that he thought about killing them in a public execution due to their connections to Thor and Hulk, but instead he orders them to find these two and bring them to him.
235* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Thanks to time being somewhat screwy on Sakaar, he's ''much'' older than he looks.
236* RelatedInTheAdaptation: In the comics, he and the Collector consider each other "brothers" (since they are both Elders of the Universe), but aren't actually blood-related. WordOfGod is that they're actual biological siblings in the MCU, though this hasn't come up in the films. The non-canon theme park ride ''Ride/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyMissionBreakout'' references this in its queue with a painting of them playing checkers...capturing the moment Grandmaster {{Rage Quit}}s and upsets the board while the Collector looks on smugly.
237* {{Sadist}}: His reactions during Thor's gladiator match with Hulk suggest he's less interested in watching the combat as he is watching his champion beat people to death.
238* SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Most of the people who end up on Sakaar are captured by his Scrappers and brought to the Grandmaster to be enslaved. Even the Grandmaster himself seems a little uncomfortable with the fact that he owns slaves and prefers them to be referred to as "prisoners with jobs".
239* SoProudOfYou: PlayedForLaughs. He says this to the Sakaarans who managed to overthrow him in TheStinger.
240-->'''Grandmaster:''' I just gotta say, I'm proud of you all. This revolution has been a huge success. Yay, us!
241* TermsOfEndangerment: He calls Thor "my friend" after having him captured to force him to fight in his arena, which is something Thor doesn't appreciate at all.
242-->'''Grandmaster:''' I preside over a little harlequinade called the Contest of Champions, people come from far and wide to unwillingly participate in it. And you, my friend, might just be part of the new cast. What do you say to that?\
243'''Thor:''' We're not friends, and I don't give a shit about your games!
244* ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: He loudly expresses his frustration to Loki and Valkyrie after Thor and Hulk have escaped his palace.
245-->'''Grandmaster:''' I'm upset! I'm very upset!
246* ThatsWhatICallX: The Grandmaster says this after Thor agrees to fight his Champion to win his freedom.
247-->'''Thor:''' Fine, then point me in the direction of whoever's ass I have to kick!\
248'''Grandmaster:''' That's what I call "contender"!
249* TimeAbyss: According to Goldblum, this version is millions of years old. He even explains that time in Sakaar passes much slower than in other planets.
250-->'''The Grandmaster:''' Time works real different around these parts. On any other world, I'd be like millions of years old, but here on Sakaar...
251* TooImportantToWalk: When a captive Thor is brought to him, the Grandmaster has his bodyguard Topaz push his seat closer to him so that he can get a better look at his prisoner.
252* UncertainDoom: TheStinger shows him emerging from his crashed ship surrounded by thousands of revolutionaries, all [[DeathGlare silently staring at him]]. He tries to present himself as being a good sport and congratulating them on their rebellion, but the scene ends before we see whether or not the revolutionaries decide to kill him. In the ''Team Darryl'' version of events, he winds up on Earth after either escaping or being exiled.
253* UnderestimatingBadassery: He doesn't seem to believe that Thor stands any chance against his Champion, and is quite surprised to see him not only put up a good fight but even gain the upper hand.
254* VillainOfTheDetour: While the BigBad is Hela, Thor and the Hulk spend a good chunk of the movie trying to escape from the Grandmaster, who's an unrelated villain with no particular ties to the situation with Hela and vanishes from the narrative as soon as Thor gets back to Asgard.
255* WhoAreYou: After buying Thor from Valkyrie, he is curious to know who his new property really is.
256-->'''Grandmaster:''' Here's what I wanna know. Who are you?\
257'''Thor:''' I am the God of Thunder!\
258'''Grandmaster:''' I didn't hear any thunder, but out of your fingers, was that sparkles?
259* TheWonka: A complete goofball who is nonetheless the undisputed ruler of Sakaar, so he must be doing something right. Fittingly, he appears to subject newly recruited [[InsistentTerminology prisoners with jobs]] to an introduction backed by the music for [[Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory "Pure Imagination"]].

276* AintTooProudToBeg: When the Grandmaster comes to confront him following his capture, Carlo desperately begs for his forgiveness. [[HopeSpot The Grandmaster ultimately pardons him]]... [[DeadlyEuphemism from his life]].
277* AnAlienNamedBob: Even though he's an alien, he has a pretty mundane human name.
278* ClashingCousins: The Grandmaster refers to him as his cousin, but that doesn't stop him from capturing and executing him.
279* DoomedFellowPrisoner: He serves as another prisoner that Thor meets after his capture who is promptly executed right next to him by the Grandmaster with the "Melt-Stick".
280* FaceDeathWithDespair: He is so shaken with fear during his execution that he can barely articulate his words. While melting to death, he tries in vain to implore Thor to help him.
281* TheGamblingAddict: A deleted scene reveals that the reason the Grandmaster had him arrested and executed was because he had been gambling too much.
282* HopeSpot: When Carlo apologizes for his faults, the Grandmaster tells him that he is pardoned, much to his great relief. However, he then clarifies that he meant "pardoned from life" and executes Carlo with his Melt Stick.
283* ImMelting: The Grandmaster uses his Melt Stick to execute him, causing his body to melt into a blue goo.
284* RubberForeheadAlien: He mostly looks like a human with lots of makeup on.
285* {{Tuckerization}}: The name "Carlo" is a reference to Carlo Pagulayan, who worked on the ''ComicBook/PlanetHulk'' comic book.

301The Grandmaster's second-in-command.
302----
303* AdaptationDyeJob: Topaz has red hair in the comics but black in the MCU.
304* AdaptationalUgliness: Relatively speaking. The MCU's take on Topaz isn't particularly ugly by real-life standards, but the normal-looking, middle-aged, heavyset woman she appears as is still quite visibly divergent from the GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe with an ImpossibleHourglassFigure [[http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DiGTAIzaZ5g/VULCnt0WjnI/AAAAAAAAmxI/HrxPi0bK1uo/s1600/P4198885.jpg she appears as in the comics]].
305* AdaptationalVillainy: From a heroine in her own right in the comics to an evil henchwoman of The Grandmaster.
306%%* BrawnHilda: She's quite heavy-set.
307* AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, Topaz is a formidable warrior with superhuman strength and agility. She doesn't show any of these abilities in the MCU.
308* AgeLift: She looks like a middle-aged woman, while the Topaz from the comics has a much younger appearance.
309* AlternateSelf: She has a variant on [[Recap/WhatIfS1E7WhatIfThorWereAnOnlyChild Earth-72124]].
310* BrutalHonesty: A common way for her snark to manifest. For example, when the Grandmaster reminds her he doesn't like the word slaves...
311-->'''Topaz:''' [[SureLetsGoWithThat Fine]]. The [[InsistentTerminology prisoners with jobs]] [[GladiatorRevolt are revolting]].
312* CanonForeigner: She is a character from Malibu Comics' ''ComicBook/UltraForce'' originally. {{Crossover}}s between Malibu Comics and Marvel Comics characters have not been unheard of however, such as in ''ComicBook/AvengersUltraforce''.
313* ComicallyMissingThePoint: At one point, Topaz reports to the Grandmaster about the ongoing revolution and [[BlackMailIsSuchAnUglyWord uses a term that he dislikes]].
314-->'''Topaz:''' The arena's mainframe for the obedience disks have been deactivated, and the slaves have armed themselves.\
315'''Grandmaster:''' ''[uncomfortable]'' I don't like that word.\
316'''Topaz:''' Which? "Mainframe"?\
317'''Grandmaster:''' No. Why would I not like "mainframe"? No, the "S" word.
318* TheComicallySerious: Compared to the Grandmaster, her very straight and outright violent persona is a stark contrastbthat generates a lot of humor in their interactions.
319* CompositeCharacter: As well as a DecompositeCharacter, as she takes Caiera's role as the personal bodyguard of Sakaar's king, while the rest of her stoyline is redistributed to Valkyrie.
320* DarkActionGirl: She's the Grandmaster's muscle and easily his most competent (loyal) underling. We never see her engage in physical combat, but when the heroes attempt to escape Sakaar aboard a stolen ship she gives chase in another craft, and proves more dangerous than all of the other pursuers combined.
321* DeadpanSnarker: Her extremely dry wit contrasts sharply with the Grandmaster's energetic, foppish sense of style and humor.
322* DeathByAdaptation: She appears to die in the crash of her starship, whereas her comic book counterpart is still alive.
323* DisproportionateRetribution: She suggests to use the melt-stick on Loki because he interrupted the Grandmaster. The Grandmaster himself is shocked, and a bit offended.
324* TheDragon: Topaz is the Grandmaster's second-in-command.
325* EvilLaugh: She lets out a cruel laugh after shooting down Valkyrie's starship.
326* FatalFireworks: While chasing Bruce Banner, her starship gets bombarded by fireworks, causing her to lose control of her course and crash to her apparent death.
327* HumanAlien: She looks entirely and completely human, despite presumably being a member of an alien species.
328* InNameOnly: She barely resembles or acts like her comic counterpart.
329* {{Jerkass}}: She doesn't even try to hide her disdain for Valkyrie, whose she's always trying to belittle or insult -- much to the Grandmaster's annoyance.
330* MoreDespicableMinion: Not that the Grandmaster is a saint by any means, but Topaz is even more violent and ruthless than he is. At one point, she suggests to kill Loki with the Melt Stick just for interrupting him, which is something [[EvenEvilHasStandards even the Grandmaster thinks is going too far]].
331* NumberTwo: She's the Grandmaster's main henchwoman.
332* OhCrap: She has one just before crashing her ship into a rock after being blinded by the Grandmaster's ship's fireworks when chasing Bruce Banner up to the Devil's Anus.
333* TheRival: She openly loathes Valkyrie because she doesn't hold Sakaar's Scrappers in very high regard and also most likely because Valkyrie is in the Grandmaster's good graces.
334* {{Sadist}}: She enjoys the pain and discomfort of others.
335* ServileSnarker: She obeys every order of the Grandmaster but it doesn't prevent her from voicing her opinion on the people he likes.
336* TribalFacePaint: Wears white markings just like Valkyrie, although they are considerably more elaborate.
337* UncertainDoom: During the airship chase on Sakaar, Banner manages to trick her into crashing into an outcropping of trash, totaling her ship. Her fate beyond that point is unknown, and she doesn't appear alongside the Grandmaster during the second {{Stinger}}. Unused versions of the ending show her escaping with the Grandmaster, which possibly indicates that she may have survived.
338* WronskiFeint: During the starship chase, Banner accidentally activates fireworks which blocks the view of Topaz as she's pursuing him. When Banner heads towards a big rock, he simply swerves at the last second, while Topaz doesn't have time to react and crashes into it.

347The guards of the Grandmaster's palace.
348----
349* AmbiguousRobots: It's possible that they might be MechaMooks, as we can see sparks coming out of their bodies after some of them are taken down by Thor and Loki.
350* BoomStick: The Sakaaran guards' spears can fire laser beams, as shown in a deleted scene where they try to shoot some bat-like creatures that got into the palace.
351* DeathFlight: At one point in the starship chase, Thor jumps on top of a Sakaaran guard's ship, rips off the roof and grabs the piloting guard to throw him away, presumably causing him to die from the fall.
352* FacelessGoons: We never see their faces, or the rest of their bodies for that matter, as they all wear armors with helmets that cover them completely.
353* ForcedFriendlyFire: During the starship chase, Valkyrie jumps on a Sakaaran guard's ship and pushes his turret cannon towards the ships of the other guards to make him shoot at them.
354* GrievousHarmWithABody: When Thor goes to steal the Grandmaster's starship, he dispatches a group of Sakaaran guards by throwing Loki at them.
355* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Unsurprisingly, none of them are able to hit the heroes with their shots, even when they are fully exposed in the middle of a hallway. During the starship chase, only Topaz manages to damage and eventually blow up Valkyrie's ship with her shots, but its occupants have already gotten away by then.
356* {{Mooks}}: They are the Grandmaster's army of evil soldiers who are mostly there to be beaten up, shot down and thrown to their death by the heroes.
357* RayGun: One of their main weapons is the Sakaaran Laser Rifle, which fires energy beams.
358* RecoilBoost: When a Sakaaran guard points his laser rifle at Loki, Thor forces him to fire into the ground, and the laser beam propels the guard several meters up in the air. It helps that the power pack likely exploded.
359* UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem: During their escape from Sakaar, Thor and Loki use Sakaaran rifles to shoot at the guards.

377The leader of the Scrappers.
378----
379* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: He basically looks like a human with chalky white skin.
380* ImAHumanitarian: He's more than happy to eat other humanoid aliens, such as Asgardians. He first tries to capture Thor to eat him when he refuses to become an arena fighter, and shortly after he tries to do the same with Valkyrie.
381* KneelBeforeZod: After Thor tells him that he doesn't want any trouble, the Lead Scrapper declares his intention to eat him and demands that he get on his knees.
382-->'''Lead Scrapper:''' It is food! On your knees.
383* LudicrousGibs: Valkyrie uses her ship's blasters to blast him and most his men to smithereens.
384* MalevolentMaskedMan: He initially wears a mask, though he takes it off before he starts talking to Thor.
385* MortonsFork: Upon meeting Thor, he asks him wether he's a fighter or just food. If he's the former then he'll be enslaved and forced to fight in the Sakaar arena until he dies, and if he's the latter then he's going to be promptly devoured, so he's screwed either way.
386* NetGun: He uses a big gun that shoots electric nets [[InescapableNet able to incapacitate any target]], even someone as powerful as Thor himself.
387* NoNameGiven: His actual name is unknown, he's only referred to as "Lead Scrapper" in the credits.
388* OhCrap: He has a surprised look when he sees Valkyrie deploy her ship's blasters and prepare to fire on them.
389* TribalFacePaint: Much like Valkyrie, he has markings on his face. It seems to be an attribute of the Scrappers.
390* UnderestimatingBadassery: He doesn't take Valkyrie very seriously when she confronts the Scrappers and threatens to go through them. He even tries to attack her with his men, thinking she's just another meal for them to eat. Ten seconds later, they all get blown to bits by her ship's blasters before any of them can even get close to her.
391* WeHardlyKnewYe: He is killed by Valkyrie after appearing in only one scene.
392* WouldHitAGirl: When Valkyrie steps in to prevent the Scrappers from eating Thor, he decides to eat her as well and tries to attack her with his men.

401A group of scavengers who scour the junkyards of Sakaar to find stranded people, either to capture them and sell them to the Grandmaster as arena fighters or to eat them.
402----
403* FacelessGoons: All the Scrappers wear masks over their faces, with their leader being the only one to remove his and reveal his actual face.
404* ImAHumanitarian: They apparently eat anyone they find in the junkyards who refuse to become a arena fighter, including other humanoid aliens like the Asgardians.
405* KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: After Thor is brought down by an electric net, the Scrappers gang up on him and proceed to brutally beat him up.
406* LudicrousGibs: Most of them are blown to smithereens when Valkyrie shoots them with her ship's blasters, with only one surviving.
407* MalevolentMaskedMen: They are cannibalistic slavers who wear creepy masks.
408* {{Mooks}}: They serve as yet another group of minor antagonists who only appear to get kicked around by Thor and then slaughtered by Valkyrie in order to show how badass these two are.
409* MuggingTheMonster: They try to attack Thor after his arrival in Sakaar to eat him, but even without his hammer he manages to beat off several of them. Later, they decide to go after Valkyrie as well, only to be gunned down by her ship's blasters.
410* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: Twice. At the beginning of his fight, Thor grabs one of the Scrappers and throws him several hundred feets away. Later, Valkyrie does the same with the last surviving Scrapper.
411* SoleSurvivor: When Valkyrie shoots at them with her ship's blasters, only one Scrapper manages to make it out alive, though she throws him into the distance shortly after so he probably dies anyway.
412* TooDumbToLive: After Valkyrie has gunned down all of his crewmates except him, the last surviving Scrapper still tries to attack her by himself. It goes as well as you might expect.
413* TheVoiceless: Aside from the leader, none of the Scrappers speak a single intelligible word.

434* TheVoiceless: Aside from Korg, none of the other gladiators have any dialogue.
435* WinYourFreedom: The Grandmaster claims that any gladiator who defeats his champion is freed from their servitude. However, the fight between Thor and Hulk shows that he activates the obedience discs whenever the gladiators are starting to win in order to ensure that they remain his prisoners.

626* ConvenientlyClosePlanet: It is the nearest habitable planet to the Sovereign Homeworld, requiring only one hyperspace jump to reach it. This is quite convenient for the Guardians of the Galaxy when they are chased by the Sovereign fleet and need to make an emergency landing.
627* HollywoodDarkness: Justified during the Ravagers' ambush scene, as the planet has several huge full moons.

[[spoiler:Confirmed when Eros shows up in ''Eternals'', and he looks virtually indistinguishable from a normal human]]. Thanos is obviously an exception, as he was born disfigured.
746* OverpopulationCrisis: Long ago, the Titans suffered from overpopulation, and the subsequent abuse of natural resources led to their extinction. This is what drives Thanos, one of the few survivors, to make sure that this doesn't happen again on any other planet.

778An Eternal who became the adoptive brother of Thanos.
779----
780* AccentsArentHereditary: Eros speaks with Music/HarryStyles' natural English accent, which heavily contrasts with Thanos's rugged American-like one.
781* AdaptationalLateAppearance: In the comics, Eros usually appears alongside Thanos, while in the MCU, he makes his debut appearance long after Thanos is dead.
782* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: The one aversion in the film, as most of the cast either don't have codenames to begin with (most of the Eternals) or haven't taken theirs up yet (Dane Whitman). Pip calls him Starfox during his HammyHerald routine, while Eros introduces himself properly with his real name.
783* HeroOfAnotherStory: If Pip the Troll is to be believed, Eros has apparently done quite a few heroic deeds in the cosmos that the audience has yet to hear the details of.
784* IHaveManyNames: Eros refers to himself by his given name when introducing himself to his fellow Eternals, but Pip the Troll calls him Starfox.
785* MeaningfulName: As with the other Eternals, Eros' name connects to mythology - specifically, he shares his name with [[Myth/ClassicalMythology the Greek god of love and sex]], who is the basis for Cupid. It also positions him nicely as a {{foil}} to his late brother Thanos - their respective names come from Sigmund Freud's view of humanity as having both a life instinct (Eros) and a death drive (Thanatos). While Thanos certainly lives up to the "death" part, Eros is introduced offering to help the spacefaring Eternals find their captured friends, potentially helping to preserve life.
786* PrimaryColorChampion: Eros wears a red cape and his suit is red with yellow/gold features.
787* RedIsHeroic: Eros is introduced as a heroic character with a red suit and a red cape.
788* RelatedDifferentlyInTheAdaptation: In the comics, Eros and Thanos are biological brothers. In the MCU, they are adoptive brothers.
789* SiblingYinYang: Thanos was a deformed, [[TheDreaded widely feared and despised]] madman with a stoic demeanor and hulking, brutal appearance. Eros, on the other hand, is a charming PrettyBoy who, despite a number of heroic deeds to his name (at least according to Pip), isn't as well known as his villainous brother.

His flagon also appear to never empty no matter how much he drinks or spills, perhaps magically so.
803* HammyHerald: Pip is clearly enjoying himself as he introduces Starfox to the Eternals during the mid-credit scene.
804* SentimentalDrunk: Pip hypes up Eros while he's plastered, in spite of the latter's insistence that he doesn't have to do it every time he shows up someplace. Pip responds by telling him that everything he does is awesome, and so is obligated to do it.
805* UnreliableNarrator: PlayedForLaughs, since Pip is completely drunk out of his mind when bragging about Eros's accomplishments, making it hard to tell what he's making up, misremembering, or actually telling the truth about. To his credit though, Eros doesn't actually say much to contradict him, outside of correcting Pip about the name of one of the foes he faced.

832* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the comics, they were exterminated by the Universal Church of Truth or by the Badoons. In the MCU movies, it was Thanos' doing.
833* DyingRace: In ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014'', the Nova Corps database describes the Zehoberei as nearly-extinct, with Gamora being the only known survivor. However, it's shown in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' that Thanos' forces only killed half of the Zehoberei population, and Thanos even mentions that the lives of the Zehoberei survivors have improved afterwards. It's unclear if this is a RetCon, or if the Zehoberei eventually died out sometimes after Thanos' second visit.
834* OverpopulationCrisis: According to Thanos, the Zehoberei people suffered from overpopulation in the past, which caused famines and would have eventually led to their extinction, so he "solved" the problem by slaughtering half their population.
835* SuddenNameChange: A minor example, but in ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' the name of Gamora's race is written "Zehoberei" on her mugshot, whereas in ''Infinity War'' Ebony Maw calls them "Zehobereians" during a flashback.

871* AlienSky: Not only does Vormir has a seemingly permanent eclipse that gives the sky unusual colors, but there is also some sort of hole in the sky above the altar that glows when a sacrifice is made.
872* BilingualBonus: ''Vor mir''[[note]]the V is read as F, though[[/note]] is German for "in front of me". The German Johann Schmidt (aka Red Skull) has been keeping the stone in front of himself for seventy years, unable to obtain it for his own gain.
873* APlanetNamedZok: The name of the planet starts with a "V" and contains two "R".
874* PrisonDimension: This is the place where Red Skull has been banished by the Tesseract for abusing its powers in ''The First Avenger''. He spent the next seventy years imprisoned on this planet where he's forced to act as the keeper of the Soul Stone until someone comes to take it away.
875* PowerGlows: The sky above the altar starts glowing when someone makes a sacrifice to acquire the Soul Stone.
876* TargetedHumanSacrifice: Those who come to Vormir to seek the Soul Stone must sacrifice the life of someone they love by throwing them off a cliff in order to obtain it. This serves as a test to ensure that the one who'll possess it understands its power.
877* TotalEclipseOfThePlot: In both of its appearances, the planet is darkened by an eclipse that seems to be perpetual. When Thanos and Gamora go to Vormir in 2017 during ''Infinity War'', and when Clint and Natasha travel through time to go the same place in 2014 during ''Endgame'', the eclipse is still present.
878* SnowMeansDeath: On the snowy mountains of Vormir, Thanos hurls Gamora off a cliff as a sacrifice for the Soul Stone. It is a cold and ruthless act, but it reveals a hitherto unrecognized warmth in the Mad Titan's heart.

892A verdant planet where [[Characters/MCUThanos Thanos]] plans to retire once his mission to balance the universe is complete.
893----
894* AlienSky: The rings of the planet as well as huge moons or sister-planets can be seen in the sky from Thanos's farm.
895* {{Arcadia}}: The whole planet is a quiet and beautiful place covered with lush vegetation. No wonder Thanos wanted to spend the rest of his days there.
896* DownOnTheFarm: The only known settlement on the planet is Thanos' farm, which is surrounded by fields. After performing the Snap, he retires there to become a farmer.
897* FantasticFlora: Thanos cultivates some weird-looking alien plants in the Garden's fields, which he uses to make stews.
898* ParadisePlanet: The Garden is an idyllic world where the only settlement to be found is Thanos's small farm.
899* NamedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, the planet on which Thanos retires to become a farmer after obtaining the Infinity Gauntlet is unnamed. In the MCU, Nebula says she heard Thanos call it "The Garden".
900* NumberedHomeworld: The Garden is labeled "Planet 0269-S" on Rocket's holographic star chart. According to WordOfGod, Thanos also calls the planet "Titan II".
901* PlanarShockwave: When Thanos uses the power of the Infinity Gauntlet to destroy the six Stones on the Garden, it creates a power surge that spreads from the planet across space as shockwave rings, as shown in a hologram.
902* WatchingTheSunset: Thanos is planning to go to the Garden to do this once he has accomplished his goal of killing half the universe. At the end of ''Infinity War'', that is exactly what he does.

915
916A border planet of the Kree Empire.
917----
918* AdaptationalWimp: In the comics, the planet Torfa has a dangerously toxic atmosphere and contains a large amount of Vibranium. In the MCU, there is no evidence of Vibranium on the planet and several alien races such as the Kree, Skrulls and Torfans are able to breathe on the planet's surface without suffering any harm.
919* MysteriousMist: The surface of the planet is covered with a thick mist.
920* MythologyGag: Like in the comics, Torfa is used as a refuge for some alien people whose planet has been destroyed, in this case the Skrulls.
921* SacrificialPlanet: Downplayed. While the planet wasn't completely destroyed, it was still severely damaged from being bombarded by the Kree Accusers at the beginning of the film, which serves to demonstrate what could happen to Earth if Carol doesn't manage to stop them during the climax.
922* UnsafeHaven: After the Kree destroyed their homeworld, many Skrulls took refuge on Torfa. Unfortunately, the Kree didn't stop hunting them down and sent the spy Soh-Larr to infiltrate the planet, which led to the Kree Accusers and Starforce coming to Torfa and causing lots of death and destruction.
923* UrbanRuins: Some ruins are visible when Starforce goes to the planet to find Soh-Larr. Vers is initially led to believe that the Skrulls caused this, but Talos later reveals to her that the Kree Accusers are the true perpetrators.

931A race of [[HornedHumanoid horned humanoid]] aliens that live on Torfa.
932----
933* AliensSpeakingEnglish: One of the few aversions in the MCU. The Torfans seem to have their own alien language, as seen when some Torfan civilians (actually Skrulls in disguise) yell at the Starforce members using incomprehensible words.
934* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: They have greenish skin.
935* TheGhost: Technically, no real Torfans actually appear in ''Film/{{Captain Marvel|2019}}'' (except in a hologram), since all those encountered by Starforce during their mission on Torfa turned out to be Skrulls in disguise.
936* HornedHumanoid: All Torfans have small horns on their heads.
937* NamedAfterTheirPlanet: They are called "Torfans" and are natives of the planet Torfa.
938* RubberForeheadAliens: Aside from their horns and skin color, the Torfans don't look very different from humans.
939* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the comics, most of the original inhabitants of Torfa died hundreds of years ago due to a plague, with the only survivors having to evacuate the planet to survive. In the MCU, the Torfans are apparently still around in the 1990s.

960A race of grey-skinned humanoid aliens known for being LiteralMinded.
961----
962* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: If Drax is any indication, then they all have gray skin.
963* BluntMetaphorsTrauma: Don't bother trying to use metaphors when dealing with one of them. As seen with Drax, it's a complete waste of time.
964* CanonForeigner: The race is an original creation of the MCU, as Drax and his family were humans from Earth in the comics.
965* LiteralMinded: According to Rocket, this is a well-known trait of this race.
966-->'''Rocket:''' [Drax's] people are entirely literal.
967* PlanetOfHats: Notorious for being completely literal and unable to grasp metaphors.
968* ProudWarriorRace: They seem to be a warlike people, with Drax mentioning that he met his future wife during a war rally.
969* YouMeanXmas: Drax implies the winter solstice is significant to them as his father would retell the story of Drax's conception then.
970* YourNormalIsOurTaboo: Apparently, fathers (or at least some of them) have a habit of telling their children how they impregnated their mothers, something that the Terran Peter Quill finds incredibly disgusting.

982
983The wife of Drax.
984----
985* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, Drax's wife is named Yvette Steckley Douglas. The name change is probably due to the AdaptationSpeciesChange, as "Yvette" doesn't sound like a very alien name.
986* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Much like her husband, Drax's wife Yvette was a human from Earth in the comics, but becomes an alien in the MCU.
987* BigBeautifulWoman: Implied, as Drax mentioned once that he prefers women with "some meat on her bones".
988* BirdsOfAFeather: Apparently, she and Drax fell in love because they shared the characteristic of never dancing.
989* DanceOfRomance: Inverted. It was the fact that both Ovette and Drax ''never'' danced (and that they were the only two not dancing at the war rally they met in) that made them fall in love with each other.
990* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the comics, Thanos is the one who killed Drax's wife. In the MCU, she was killed by Ronan the Accuser instead, although he was acting under Thanos' orders.
991* DisposableWoman: She is Drax's wife and only exists to be killed off to give her husband a reason to seek revenge on Ronan, and later on Thanos.
992* TheGhost: Drax mentions his wife several times in each of his films, but she never actually appears on-screen, not even in flashbacks.
993* ICantDance: According to Drax, Ovette was far too serious-minded to have fun at tribal events. Which is why he fell in love with her in the first place.
994* KilledOffscreen: We never got to see her death at the hands of Ronan.
995* TheLostLenore: To Drax. Her death is what led him to become the vengeful warrior he is today.
996* LoveAtFirstSight: Drax claims that he knew immediately when he saw her not dancing at a rally that she would be the love of his life.
997* PosthumousCharacter: She died during the attack of her planet by Ronan some time before the events of the first ''Guardians of the Galaxy'' film.
998* TheStoic: From Drax's descriptions, his wife seems to have been a mostly serious and stoic person, who didn't even react during their village's festivities.
999-->'''Drax:''' The most melodic song in the world could be playing, she wouldn't even tap her foot. Wouldn't move a muscle. One might assume she was dead.

1007The daughter of Drax.
1008----
1009* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, Drax's daughter is named Heather Douglas. The name change is probably due to the AdaptationSpeciesChange, as "Heather" doesn't sound like a very alien name.
1010* AdaptationSpeciesChange: Much like her father, Drax's daughter Heather was a human from Earth in the comics, but becomes an alien in the MCU.
1011* ChildrenAreInnocent: When reminiscing about his daughter to Mantis, Drax describes her as "innocent", just like her.
1012* DaddysGirl: She seems to have had a close relationship with her father, with him mentioning that he used to take her to visit the forgotten lakes on their home planet. In fact, Drax's close friendship with Mantis seems to be due to her reminding him of his daughter.
1013* DeathByAdaptation: In the comics, Drax's daughter Heather actually survived Thanos' attack and was taken by Thanos' father Mentor to Titan where she becomes the superheroine Moondragon. In the MCU, Drax's daughter was apparently killed for real by Ronan on Thanos' orders.
1014* DeathOfAChild: Her exact age is not known, but she's implied to have been very young when she was killed by Ronan.
1015* DisposableWoman: She is Drax's daughter and only exists to be killed off to give her father a reason to seek revenge on Ronan, and later on Thanos.

1029* AlienSky: The skies of Lamentis-1 have a distinct purple color, which slowly gets darkened as the planet it's about to crash into covers more and more of it.
1030* ColonyDrop: In 2077, fragments of the planet Lamentis crashed on the moon Lamentis-1.
1031* CrapsackWorld: Lamentis-1 is on the brink of complete destruction in 2077, where the poorer citizens of the world are left to die an agonizing death while the wealthier ones get to go a place called the Ark to live the rest of their days. The Ark itself ends up destroyed and kills everyone on it anyways.
1032* DeathByAdaptation: The planet Lamentis never got destroyed in the comics.

1248An artificial replica of Earth created by the High Evolutionary, where he and his fellow scientists experiment on animals and send them out to live full lives in their "perfect society".
1249----
1250* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Played with. While characters like the High Evolutionary and his fellow scientists are shown speaking perfect English for the most part, many of the residents of Counter-Earth are shown speaking their own distinct language that the Guardians cannot translate. That said, some of the High Evolutionary's guard animals like War Pig can speak English just fine.
1251* CrapsaccharineWorld: At a glance, Counter-Earth looks exactly like its namesake, just with Humanimals replacing regular humans in society and was intended by the High Evolutionary to have all the good traits of Earth and none of the bad ones. However, on the way to the High Evolutionary's ship, the Guardians see that Counter-Earth has many of the same problems on Earth, like homelessness and drug dealing.
1252* EarthShatteringKaboom: [[spoiler:After Star-Lord informs the High Evolutionary that Counter-Earth is less than perfect, he decides to completely raze it to the ground, killing everyone on it.]]
1253* FalseUtopia: Counter-Earth was created with the intention of being a better version of Earth without any of the bigotry or negative qualities of the human race. Unfortunately, many Earthly vices still dominate this new society, much to the High Evolutionary's chagrin.
1254* GoneHorriblyRight: The High Evolutionary wanted to make a perfect recreation of Earth and its inhabitants, as he considers the planet to be the closest thing to a perfect planet he has ever seen. Unfortunately, he ended up recreating Earth a little ''too'' well, to the point where crime, drugs and street fights can be seen throughout Humanimals' society.
1255* ItsASmallWorldAfterAll: The suburban neighborhood the Guardians land on just happens to be within driving distance of the High Evolutionary's headquarters.
1256* PlanetOfHats: Nearly all the inhabitants of Counter-Earth are some kind of UpliftedAnimal from the original Earth.
1257* PlanetaryNation: While Counter-Earth may have a distinct society that the Humanimals live and govern in, they are all creations of and under the control of the High Evolutionary.

Rocket became attached to her very quickly and he dreamed of living in the new world with her and their friends. She was similarly awestruck by his talent and wit and the two share many heartfelt moments together in their youth. Her death drives him mad with grief and causes his NoHoldsBarredBeatdown of the High Evolutionary.]]

1306* TheLostLenore: As the first person to show him kindness, his failure to save her life ''shattered'' Rocket's heart and destroyed his ability to love himself in turn.
1307* NiceGirl: She's a sweetheart through and through, who cares dearly about her friends.
1308* PlayfulOtter: An adorable otter who happens to be a total sweetheart.

1310* TeamMom: Though they're all innocent, Lylla is relatively the most mature of her friend group, and her introduction of comforting a young, newly sapient Rocket paints her in a maternal light.

1327* AdaptationNameChange: In the comics, he's known as Wal Rus.
1328* AdaptationalDumbass: Wal Rus was a technological genius in the comics. By contrast, Teefs notes that the fact that he's able to think ''at all'' is something worth exclaiming aloud.
1329* AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence: [[spoiler: It's shown during Rocket's near death experience that he and and his friends are in a much better place now, Heaven.]]
1330* GentleGiant: He's a walrus, making him the largest of his friends, but he's a very kind, gentle guy.
1331* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:He's a sweet, kind-hearted, child-like walrus who gets gunned down as collateral damage during Rocket's shootout with the High Evolutionary's men.]]
1332* KindheartedSimpleton: He's a sweet and friendly guy, but he's rather naive and child-like - although for all intents and purposes is one. At one point he proudly announces he's been thinking. Not about anything in particular, he just wanted his friends to know.
1333* ManChild: Is a fully grown walrus with an adult voice but has a very naive, childlike view of the world that is no doubt due to his sheltered upbringing and lack of intelligence.
1334* MeaningfulRename: He chooses the name "Teefs" as a reference to his tusks, which he notes are the "most prominent" of all his friends' teeth.
1335* NiceGuy: He's a sweet, friendly guy, if a bit dim.
1336* {{Retcon}}: A portrait of Wal Rus (his identity in the comics) makes an appearance at the Iron Lotus in ''Vol. 2'', a reference confirmed by Gunn [[https://web.archive.org/web/20180726132057/https://twitter.com/JamesGunn/status/1004418817991176192 here]].

1352* CanonForeigner: She's the only one of Rocket's friends to not originate from the comics. She might be meant as a stand-in for Blackjack O'Hare, but there are very little similarities between the two beyond their species.
1353* CreepyGood: Floor's menacing-looking, spidery legs and speaker grafted to her mouth make her look intimidating, but she's a sweetheart through and through.
1354* CheerfulChild: She's the most openly child-like of the High Evolutionary's creations and is mentally a toddler, yet she's very cheerful.
1355* FlawedPrototype: Seemingly to Rocket and the rest of batch 89, as Floor is both the most simple-minded and speaks less articulately than even newly-enhanced Rocket, as well as having the most crude cybernetic implants compared to the others; looking like metal haphazardly jammed into open wounds whereas Rocket's are almost unnoticeable after he's healed. She appears to be the earliest surviving "model" of her friends.
1356* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:She's the most child-like of all of Rocket's friends, which makes her death especially devastating.

1372->'''''[[WhamLine RELEASE THE HELLSPAWN!!!]]'''''
1373
1374The shock troops of Orgocorp, Hellspawn comprise of the ''thousands'' of the High Evolutionary's failed bioweapon experiments, randomly stapled together from the most powerful and/or intimidating body parts of otherwise incompatible organisms, resulting in assymetrical brutes too hideous for day to day law-enforcement, but too powerful to be casually incinerated.
1375----
1376* BodyHorror: The Hellspawn are basically living, disfigured action figures mangled together with the logic of a ten year old on too much sugar like the budding psychopath Sid from ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory1''. If a body part looks cool, scary and/or powerful, it will be stitched and stapled onto the creature with ''no'' regards to symmetry, balance, or its quality of life outside combat. The result will ''invariably'' be a twisted and asymetrical abomination that scuttled straight out of the biomechanical nighmares of Creator/HRGiger and Creator/DavidCronenberg.
1377* GodzillaThreshold: Unleashing them as a swarm upon an enemy is presumably an ''absolute'' last resort, judging by the horrified expressions of the High Evolutionary's men when commanded to do so. Understandable, considering said monsters' destructive capabilities coupled with barely controlled savagery and stupidity.
1378* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: The ''one'' thing The High Evolutionary did right in producing the Hellspawn was an intimidating name, which warns any potential enemies of the wrath that will befall them if they dare defy him.
1379* PraetorianGuard: Even though they are borderline mindless monstrosities, the Hellspawn are still The High Evolutionary's final line of defense when soldiers armed with rifles are no longer sufficient to bully/frighten/kill a problem into submission and compliance.
1380* QuantityVsQuality: The High Evolutionary makes and deploys these cannon fodder with the same logic of a VideoGame/{{Starcraft}} Zerg Player; churn out as many powerful and scary looking monsters as you can, ''without'' bothering to spend time & resources to giving them intelligence or advanced combat skills (all the more money and raw material to make ''more'' scary monsters, after all), and then crash them like a Tsunami onto a dangerous foe, expecting that the threat will ''eventually'' be exterminated in the resulting war of attrition. While this "strategy" works against peaceful civilians, the High Evolutionary trained the Hellsapwn ''so'' poorly that a dozen or so warriors with Avengers-Level Caliber of Skill, Experience and Weaponry (which the Guardians of the Galaxy and their allies ''all'' happen to be) can ''easily'' tear through ''hundreds'' of them in minutes.
1381* SuperStrength: These barely trained, glorified attack dogs would seem ''less'' dangerous than Thanos' Outriders, were they not also individually strong enough to rip open ''steel and concrete'' with their claws, teeth, wings and ''tentacles.''
1382* ZergRush: Poorly trained though they may be, The High Evolutionary unleashes these monsters in the ''thousands'', with the "logic" that the law of averages will ensure that the threat will ''eventually'' be wiped out by their sheer numbers.

1487* SuddenlyBilingual: After performing a huge musical number with Carol, he reveals that he can speak non-sung words to Monica's annoyance.

1499* DeadlyDustStorm: The planet is prone to them, but they are eventually shown to be caused by Hive.
1500* DeathWorld: Will (and Simmons, eventually) think the unnamed planet is literally Hell. The surface is almost completely barren, daylight only comes once every 18 years, the core radiates heat which compensates for the lack of sunlight, some abstract intelligence actively prevents escape and there's a monster on the surface which lives solely to kill anything that isn't it.

1513A NASA astronaut who was sent through the Kree portal to Maveth in 2001 as part of Project Distant Star Return, who Simmons runs into after she's also sucked in.
1514----
1515* ActionSurvivor: The only member of his team able to keep it together in their hellish situation trapped on the alien planet. Surviving on an alien world by himself for fourteen years is certainly an impressive feat.
1516* AmbiguouslyEvil: HYDRA was responsible for Will and his fellow astronauts' trip to Maveth, and Will's uniform had a proto-HYDRA logo on the shoulder, but whether Will himself was a member of HYDRA is left unclear.
1517* CanonForeigner: There is no Will Daniels in the comics.
1518* BusCrash: Died covering Simmons as Fitz brought her back, as revealed in "Maveth".

1520* FishOutOfTemporalWater: With no updates from Earth since 2001, he's naturally amazed at Simmons' Smartphone.
1521* GoMadFromTheIsolation: After ''fourteen years'' alone, he's naturally gone a little off. He keeps Simmons imprisoned at first just to make sure she's real.

1528* UnwittingPawn: Was either this or EvilAllAlong due to the revelation HYDRA was responsible for his expedition. Whether he was a genuine astronaut who choose the wrong mission or a loyal HYDRA agent is not addressed, though evidence exists for both options. With his death, it is unlikely to be ever answered.

1546* HomeworldEvacuation: Downplayed, but a small number of Chronicoms led by Atarah managed to evacuate the planet before its destruction.
1547* NumberedHomeworld: The planet is called "Chronyca-'''2'''". Since the Chronicoms want to conquer Earth and rename it "Chronyca-3", this suggests that it was their second home planet.
1548* PlanetaryDestruction: Izel used the Shrike to cause the complete destruction of the planet when she came to search for the Monoliths. According to Atarah, the planet was set ablaze and heated to the melting point, wiping out all life on it.
1549* SacrificialPlanet: Chronyca-2 is one of the numerous planets that Izel destroyed during her search for the Monoliths and that Sarge's crew failed to save. Upon seeing footage of Chronyca-2's destruction, the SHIELD agents realize that Earth is in danger of suffering the exact same fate.

1663!!!'''Species:''' Abilisk
1664!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'' | ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3''
1665
1666An inter-dimensional creature that is feeding on the power source of the Sovereign, who hire the Guardians of the Galaxy to eliminate it. The third film confirms this is a species rather than a singular creature.
1667----
1668* AchillesHeel: Its skin is almost unbreakable, except for one spot on its neck where it has a visible scar.
1669* AlienBlood: Its blood resembles yellow slime.
1670* AttackTheInjury: The battle with the Abilisk doesn't go well for the Guardians, as the beast has a hide that shrugs off all their weapons... until Peter notices a previous injury that left an open incision in the hide. He points it out to Gamora, who quickly uses her sword to open a massive cut from the original small wound.
1671* BackForTheFinale: After the Abilisk served as the StarterVillain for the Guardians in ''Vol. 2'', three other individuals of the same species appear at the end of the trilogy as part of the High Evolutionary's attempt to kill Mantis, Nebula, and Drax. However, Mantis manages to calm them down and befriend them when she realizes they were only attacking out of fear.
1672* BreathWeapon: It has one that resembles the aurora borealis. Its actual effect is unclear due to most of the fight being a MeaningfulBackgroundEvent, but Rocket's weapon catches fire when he's struck full-blast by its streaming light.
1673* CanonForeigner: The Abilisk is an original creation from the MCU that doesn't have any counterpart in the comics.
1674* CombatTentacles This creature's bread and butter, although it has a host of other abilities as well.
1675* DimensionalTraveler: According to Gamora, the Abilisk is a creature that travels through dimensions.
1676* TheDreaded: The reason the Guardians were hired to kill the Abilisk is because the Sovereign were too afraid to lose the lives of some of their own by fighting it themselves.
1677* EatingTheEnemy: It spends most of the battle trying to devour the Guardians of the Galaxy and eventually succeeds in eating Drax, though he actually lets it happen on purpose.
1678* ExtremeOmnivore: In addition to eating people, the Abilisk loves to feed on Anulax batteries, which are highly explosive. Averted in ''Vol. 3'' when Mantis asserts they only eat batteries, and attack only out of fear.
1679* GoodScarsEvilScars: The Abilisk has a noticeable scar on its neck and isn't the friendliest of creatures.
1680* GuttedLikeAFish: Gamora ends up killing it by cutting open its belly with her sword, making everything in its stomach drip out, including the recently eaten Drax.
1681* ImmuneToBullets: Its skin is so thick that the Guardians' firearms have little to no effect on it.
1682* KillItThroughItsStomach: Subverted, in that Drax's idea to attempt this against it proved wholly ineffective.
1683* LampreyMouth: Has at least three rows of sharpened teeth filling multiple levels on the inside of its mouth.
1684* MetronomicManMashing: At one point during the fight, the Abilisk grabs Drax by the legs and starts slamming him all over the place, almost crushing Baby Groot in the process.
1685* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: The Abilisk has several rows of teeth, each one sharper than the other.
1686* NotEvilJustMisunderstood: In ''Vol. 3'', Mantis reasons that the Abilisks only seemed interested in eating batteries so they may act hostile to humans and other species out of fear. Sure enough, she's able to commune with and befriend a trio of Abilisks.
1687* OctopoidAliens: It's an alien creature with a large number of tentacles, making it somewhat reminiscent of an octopus.
1688* StarfishAliens: A giant, tentacled monster that travels between dimensions and particularly loves to menace the Sovereign world.
1689* StarterVillain: The Abilisk serves as the first threat faced by the Guardians of the Galaxy during ''Vol. 2'', appearing in the team's first scene and getting killed after a short yet difficult battle.
1690* SuperToughness: The Abilisk's skin is incredibly durable, being able to withstand Peter's and Rocket's gunfire as well as Drax's knives without suffering any scratches. Gamora has to attack a pre-existing cut with her sword to successfully kill it.
1691* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: As its skin proves too tough to penetrate, Drax decides to jump into the Abilisk's mouth reasoning that he can "cut through it from the inside"... only for the interior skin to turn out to be just as tough as the exterior, a fact [[LampshadeHanging Peter and Gamora are well aware of]].
1692* SwallowedWhole: Does this to Drax, who jumps right into the Abilisk's mouth in an attempt to [[KillItThroughItsStomach kill it from its inside]].
1693* TentacledTerror: It is a tentacled inter-dimensional beast that feeds on the Anulax Batteries of the Sovereign.
1694* TentacleRope: Towards the end of the fight, the Abilisk wraps a tentacle around Peter Quill's body and brings him to its mouth to devour him, but Gamora manages to kill it first by slashing open its stomach.
1695* WeNeedADistraction: In order to allow Gamora to target its neck scar, Peter orders Rocket to draw the Abilisk's attention to make it look up, which he manages to do by flying over it and shooting it repeatedly.

1739* DeliberatelyMonochrome: Its dark magic renders almost everything around it in black and white, and only certain magical elements can retain their colors in the Realm (Mjolnir, Zeus' Thunderbolt and Gorr's eyes). As Thor puts it, it is a place "where the color fears to tread".
1740* EldritchLocation: It's a realm of darkness connected to the Necrosword, and thus the source of Gorr's shadow magic, with almost everything being completely monochrome as even color "fears to tread" within it.

1752A previous wielder of the Necrosword, slain by one of the deities of Gorr's homeworld.
1753----
1754* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: He is technically an adaptation of Knull, but goes unnamed to avoid legal issues with Sony and is merely one of many wielders of the Necrosword rather than being its creator.
1755* AdaptationalWimp: While he isn't Knull himself, the Dark God takes his role in Gorr's backstory and shows himself as significantly weaker than Knull. Whereas Knull implicitly managed to wipe out Gorr's home planet's pantheon and severely weaken the golden god and wasn't killed thanks to his CompleteImmortality, the Dark God was killed by Rapu and his pantheon with seemingly minimal casualties on the pantheon's side.
1756* BlackKnight: All that is shown of him is that he is a dark being with metallic skin wielding a black blade.
1757* DarkIsEvil: He has jet-black, almost metallic-looking skin and wielded the Necrosword in a deicidal crusade.
1758* FangsAreEvil: Like Gorr after him, he is a god-slaying warrior with fangs for teeth, through whether his were the result of the Necrosword's corruption or something he naturally possessed are unknown.
1759* IdenticalStranger: His facial features resemble Gorr's.
1760* KillTheGod: Like Gorr and Necrosword's other wielders, he was compelled by the dark blade to go on a deicidal rampage across the cosmos.
1761* LegacyCharacter: Unlike in the comics, the dark being is one of many wielders of the Necrosword.
1762* NoBodyLeftBehind: His corpse melts into darkness and is seemingly absorbed by the Necrosword.
1763* NoNameGiven: Given that Knull likely falls under the purview of Film/SonysSpiderManUniverse and Thor stating the Necrosword has changed hands from the dawn of time with the implication that he ''isn't'' Knull, the Necrosword's wielder is left unnamed -- with the closest he has to an official name, "the Dark Shadow Lord" being revealed on the special effects team's Instagram.
1764* PosthumousCharacter: He's dead by the time Gorr finds him and nothing is exposited about his past to avoid stepping on Sony's toes.
1765* PredecessorVillain: He directly preceded Gorr as the Necrosword's wielder, having been corrupted by it into a deicidal warrior.
1766* RiddleForTheAges: Since he isn't Knull and his backstory isn't elaborated on because of disputes with Sony, how he came into possession of the Necrosword or what his life was like beforehand is not clear. We know he took it from ''somebody'', but that's it.
1767* WorfHadTheFlu: Implied. The Necrosword gradually kills its wielder and he'd held onto it for an unknown length of time before going up against Rapu, who was easily subdued as soon as Gorr inherited the sword.
