Les chroniques d'Arawn is a French comic book written by Ronan Le Breton and drawn by Sebastien Grenier originally published in the pages of the Heavy Metal magazine. It is loosely based on Celtic Mythology and tells the tragic story of Death-Lord Arawn, an Evil Overlord that has thoroughly conquered the land and how he came to be the way he is.The unwanted son of an amazon named Siamh, he and his half-brothers were trained as a warriors and each one of them acquired magic artifacts, with Arawn gaining a Cauldron of Blood, an unholy relic with unspeakable powers and has a mind of its own. With each of Siamh's sons parting ways and gaining their own kingdoms, Arawn's older brother Math turns into a ruthless tyrant who utterly destroys all those that stand in his way and also desires Arawn's cauldron for himself. Things go From Bad to Worse when Math kidnaps Arawn's wife Deirdre (who is also pregnant with his child) and holds her hostage until his brother surrenders his cauldron in exchange for her return. An all-out war between siblings erupts, which ends up causing everyone whom Arawn knew turning against him because of a prophecy his mother had about all of her children dying and one of them (believed to be Arawn) turning evil. So naturally, Arawn decides that he might as well be the monster everyone think he is and make the prophecy come true...The comic has been published in both French and English languages and ran for six volumes, though its schedule has been irregular. | |

The Hedonist: Engus becomes an extremely debauched hedonist after he and his three brothers retreat to their individual kingdoms, spending his time doing nothing but drinking and holding orgies in his throne room. He even has a little girl brought before him, but thankfully we don't see what happens next. | |

| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_254fb9cb | comment |
Anticlimax: Math is built up as Arawn's Arch-Enemy, having played a huge hand in the events that turned his brother in the Death-Lord he is now. However, Math dies on Volume 5 in the most pathetic way possible: a broken shell of his former self on his throne, struck down by his own mother rather than Arawn. Engus after becoming a god and leading a destructive campaign of conquest upon the land. He goes down without a fight or any epic confrontation, being merely confronted in his room, dragged before his army and decapitated without ceremony. | |

Red Right Hand | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_25b7257f | comment |
Red Right Hand: Arawn was born without genitals which Siamh thought marked him as who would betray all others. He gains them once he bathes on the Cauldron for the first time. Unfortunately he is hit with his trope again, after Math strikes the left side of his face with his axe, blinding him in one eye and giving him a disfiguring scar. His uncle Fenris also has a similar scar in his left side, though it was cased by a swamp monster slashing his face. | |

Deity of Human Origin: The main protagonist became a god of his own right after being possessed by the Cauldron and absorbing the essence of two gods. He may probably double as a Demon of Human Origin too. Kern is resurrected as the god Kernunnos at the end of the story. | |

Please Kill Me if It Satisfies You: Arawn finally wins Deirdre's heart by telling her that he loves her so much that he is willing to put his life in her hands, then offers her a knife and asks her to either kill him if she really hates him that much, or accept him. While she's tempted, she instead falls into his arms, moved by his declaration of love. | |

This Cannot Be!: At some point in the story Siamh : summons the goddess of War Morrigan in order to fight her son possesed by the demon of the Cauldron. After a brutal fight, Arawn incredibly manages to kill Morrigan and absorb her divine powers. As Siamh witnesses from the distance the horribly deteriorated corpse of the vanquished goddess, she is shocked and horrofied, realising that her son has become a monstrousity that even a mighty deity of War was unable to stop. | |

Artifact of Doom: The Cauldron is a powerful item giving its owner the power to summon demons and the undead, heal grievous injuries such as as dismembered limbs, but it can also corrupt people into desiring it. Its a completely evil son of a bitch to boot that causes so much disgrace and misery that the One Ring would probably feel jealous. | |

Manipulative Bastard | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_40c57041 | comment |
Manipulative Bastard: The Cauldron of Blood turns all sides against the middle and themselves, seducing Arawn and his brothers with ultimate power and godhood, only to betray them when it's convenient. But what really makes it qualify is that despite its blatantly treasonous nature, nobody so far figured out it is the real threat or done anything to stop it, as it continues to play everyone like a fiddle. With that said, the moment someone (Owen) realizes the danger it represents and decides to do something about it, the Cauldron's demise was imminent. | |

Butt-Monkey: Owen. For starters, he is reduced to a decapitated head who lives in constant torment at Arawn's hands for his betrayal. And as Arawn's tale shows, he was constantly disrespected, berated, and slapped by others. But then again, given the kind of stuff he pulled, he deserved it, though he kinda redeems himself by throwing down his life to destroy the Cauldron. | |

Cessation of Existence: During the gathering organized by the gods to avenge the death of the goddess of War Morrigan, they state that Morrigan "is no more, she has ceased to exist. Someone has stolen her soul, her mind, her breath.", implying that the goddess was completely vanquished when her soul was consumed by Arawn. The deity Mug Ruith will meet the same fate later in the story. | |

The Farmer and the Viper | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_505a1021 | comment |
The Farmer and the Viper: Arawn's father Bran repaid Dag's hospitality by killing him in his sleep, trying to sacrifice his sons Math and Kern and raping his wife Siamh besides Dag's corpse, which ended up conceiving Arawn and Engus. | |

Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_52600ad6 | comment |
Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu: Owen manages to destroy the godlike demon spawned from the Cauldron of Blood, who even the pantheon of gods had trouble dealing with, by destroying the Cauldron itself with Math's Sun Axe. He ends up dying in the resulting explosion, but is later resurrected by Arawn. | |

The Caligula | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_52aa0c4a | comment |
The Caligula: Math is an insane, power-hungry brute who lusts after the Cauldron's power and goes to war with his brother just to possess it. Engus turns out into a decadent degenerate who holds non-stop orgies in his throne room. By the way, one of the girls brought before him looks no older than ten. He becomes even worse after gaining the Cauldron's power, having an army of demons at his back and call, and fueling the Cauldron with the souls of the innocents. | |

Sanity Slippage | |

Sanity Slippage: Math was not always stable, but the desire for the Cauldron pushes him more and more towards madness. After the deaths of Duncan and Deirdre, he turns into a raving lunatic who hallucinates with their ghosts and thinks his subjects are conspiring to have him killed, such as killing a bedwarmer sent to his chamber because he thinks she was sent to kill him. | |

Villainous Friendship | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_63b12059 | comment |
Villainous Friendship: Downplayed. Arawn's only true friend as an Evil Overlord is the decapitated head of his advisor Owen, whom he tells the story and spends the whole tale bickering with him. In fact, the whole reason why Owen is still alive is because Arawn forces the Cauldron not to kill him and later brought him Back from the Dead after Owen gave his own life to destroy it. Having said that, Owen had also betrayed Arawn beforehand as a result of his own cowardice, but given that he saved everyone in a Redemption Equals Death sort of way, it was enough to forgive him. | |

Brothers Math and Kern are at least loyal to each other, the amazon warrior Siamh loved her own mother as well as her husband Dag, the rapist Bran had his older brother and father to look up to, Arawn and Math both love their sons, Arawn was driven by his love for Deirdre, etc. | |

Back from the Dead: The Cauldron is able to revive the recently deceased by dumping their bodies inside of it. Arawn himself gains this power after rising as a dark lord, using it to revive the recently deceased by feeding them his blood. With that said, it has its limits and it can't bring back those that died a long time ago such as Deirdre. Kern is brought back to life as a god himself and Arawn spends his time killing him every day, only for him to be resurrected in the next day. | |

Token Good Teammate: Arguably Kern.

With that said, he still followed his mad brother, ended up falling to the Cauldron's seduction too and paid with his life for it, though ironically, he was raised from the dead and became a forest god. | |

| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_9b53f32 | comment |
Exposed to the Elements: Justified Trope. This gets lampshaded by the decapitated head of his former friend that Arawn is recounting his life story to. His mother Siamh was an amazonian warrior, the Last of Her Kind, who always walked around in a Chainmail Bikini, even in the middle of winter. This was because of a magic spell that she used to prolong her life and protect her body from the elements. | |

Evil Is Not a Toy | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_9fb2452d | comment |
Evil Is Not a Toy: Anyone who thinks they can somehow control the Cauldron of Blood is a misguided fool. It may offer its current owner great power, but it's always on the look-out for a new Master and its only real goal is to acquire as many souls as possible for itself to feast on. | |

Love at First Sight | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_a8dcb1d7 | comment |
Love at First Sight: Arawn fell in love with Deirdre in the moment he laid eyes on her. She didn't return the favor at first, since he had taken her as his wife right after usurping her husband's throne. Probably the only reason why she fell in love with him at all is because he didn't exercise the Marital Rape License. | |

Orcus on His Throne | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_add14bc2 | comment |
Orcus on His Throne: The comic's notion of kingship—before and after death—seems to involve extended brooding on a raised throne and not much else. It might or might not involve naked women at the foot of it, facing away from you (which, frankly, seems backwards). | |

Ms. Fanservice: Siamh. Most women tend to be fanservicey, but she is the one to receive most attention in the story, being frequently depicted partially or fully naked. Even when she is covered, her outfits are really skin-tight. The goddess Morrigan and the goddess of Nature also appear as beautiful completely nude women. Oh, and Scenery Censor is completely and utterly averted. | |

Divine Conflict | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_b1720bc6 | comment |
Divine Conflict: The demon created from the Cauldron of Blood eventually devours so many souls that its powers are on equal footing with the gods. Then he kills and absorbs the goddess of war, which angers the rest of the divine pantheon enough to make them join their forces and fight him. They are actually on the losing end until Owen destroys the Cauldron itself. | |

Marital Rape License: Subverted when Deirdre becomes Arawn's wife by right of conquest after he murdered her husband and took over his kingdom. Naturally she despises him and pushes him away when he tries making a move. Arawn rips her dress and attempts to force himself on her, but he refrains from doing so as he prefers that she gave her consent. She eventually does after rejecting him for a few weeks. | |

But then Math beckons his sun axe back and grabs Deirdre again and Kern returns with the Cauldron in hand. Arawn is advised to hand over his black sword to his rival since the weapon is enchanted to not harm him. The Cauldron removed it and allows his enemy to kill Arawn with his sword. Arawn finds out his blood has the power to resurrect the dead after becoming a Evil Overlord, which he uses on his fallen comrades that died in combat. So logically, he tries to use it on Deirdre...

It culminates with him becoming a Death-Lord devoid of any compassion. Though Engus was not mistreated as his brother, he ends up turning into his trope later in life when he turns into a degenerate hedonist that pulls orgies in his hold. Then he is turned into a Physical God by the Cauldron and becomes even worse than before. The fact he has no Freudian Excuse to justify this makes him a bigger figurative bastard than Arawn. | |

Cain and Abel | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_eba6a077 | comment |
Cain and Abel: Oooh boy. Where do we get started? The most prominent deadly rivalry is between Math and Arawn for possession of the Cauldron, driving the former to utterly ruin the latter's life and push him down the dark path. While Arawn is ultimately robbed of personally killing Math, he makes sure to torture his sibling in the Underworld for the rest of time. Kern seems to be the only one on good terms with all his brothers until he too is tempted by the Cauldron and tricked into sacrificing Engus to the Cauldron in order to become a god. The joke was on him, since it was Engus who rose as a god at the end and promptly killed Kern in retaliation. At the end of the series, Kern is resurrected as a god himself named Kernunos, leaving him as Arawn's only surviving sibling. Arawn tries to kill him in revenge for playing his part in taking Deirdre from him, but he is always brought back to life every night. Engus himself, despite being Arawn's blood brother, also ends up partaking in this trope when he becomes a god and usurps the Cauldron's power from him. Engus actually succeeds in killing him in a duel, but just like his own example above, Arawn is resurrected by the Cauldron and returns the favor by killing him and taking his soul to be tortured alongside Math forever. | |

Deconstructed Character Archetype | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_ec9a5f50 | comment |
Deconstructed Character Archetype: The comic is a deconstruction of the Evil Overlord. Arawn, sitting atop his skull-adorned throne in Scary Impractical Armor, introduces himself as the immortal demon god of death, lives in an Evil Tower of Ominousness in a burning wasteland, and rules over an army of hellspawn monsters and undead soldiers who mindlessly obey his every word. However, he Was Once a Man, and relates his long and sad life story of what it took for him to become such a figure of pure evil. The answer involves irrevocable prophecies, evil artifacts, divine intervention, and decades of warfare between him and his three warrior brothers. Also, despite his immense power, he never got what he really wanted, since even with his mastery over life and death, he cannot truly bring back the woman he once loved. | |

Supernaturally Young Parent | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_ee29a942 | comment |
Supernaturally Young Parent: Siamh looks extremely hot for a woman that gave birth to four sons. She also shows no sign of aging, or hell any change, when her children reach adulthood and have kids of their own. There is a reason for that: she drinks the blood from her enemies' hearts, as her tribe's secret to extend their vitality and longevity, preventing their bodies from being destroyed by the ravages of time.. | |

Combat by Champion | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_f0864fd9 | comment |
Combat by Champion: Unlike his brothers, Kern gained his crown with the most minimal bloodshed, by simply challenged his rival into a duel and winning. Later on, Arawn challenges his brother Engus to a duel to the death for control of their armies. Arawn deliberately hands over his black sword to his rival, because it's enchanted to not harm its owner. Except the Cauldron removes the enchantment, allowing Engus to kill his brother effortlessly. Prick. | |

Surprisingly Sudden Death | |
| Arawn (Comic Book) / int_f12c6fb1 | comment |
Surprisingly Sudden Death: Towards the end of the comic Siamh summons the goddess of war Morrigan in order to fight Arawn possessed by the Cauldron demon. The goddess has the upper hand for most of the fight and manages to nearly kill him thanks to her superior divine powers. As she is going to give him the finishing blow the demon manages to immobilize her with one of his tentacles. He then start absorbing the divine essence from Morrigan's body, slowly retaining his lost strength. At the end, the powerful goddess of war is completely destroyed, and all what remains of her is a lifeless shell of bones and flesh. | |

Redemption Equals Death: Subverted. For having a playing his part in giving up Deirdre to Math due to his cowardice, Owen makes it up by sacrificing his own life to destroy the Cauldron of Blood with the Sun Axe. It was thanks to this that Arawn decides to resurrect him shortly afterwards. | |

Youngest Child Wins: A very dark inversion, with Arawn being the youngest of all his brothers and a Villain Protagonist. With that said, his eldest brother Math was worse. | |
