In fiction, there's a popular tendency for especially fearsome characters to be known as "The Beast," or some variation on this theme. A subtrope of Names to Run Away from Really Fast, the reasons for this particular moniker vary from depiction to depiction, though rarely for positive ones. In some cases, this is due to the character possessing some animalistic attribute, a "beastly" appearance or nature . In others, this is due to brutish, violent or savage behavior, a close tie-in with the first reason possibly to the point of being a Feral Villain. Alternatively, it will be associated with the titular beast of Christian theology and the Book of Revelation, there may be some connection with the demonic or diabolical; the Mark of the Beast may be utilized. Other times, the character in question is literally an animal — only so monstrous or so indescribable that giving it any name other than "beast" simply will not suffice. On occasion, a hero may end up with this name for similar reasons — but not often. |

The finale of inFAMOUS reveals that the true overarching threat of the setting is a giant, lava-skinned Humanoid Abomination known to Kessler as the Beast, responsible for destroying the world in one possible future. Likely named due to the connections with the Book of Revelation, the Beast becomes the Big Bad of inFAMOUS 2, destroying an entire city and leaving a trail of destruction across most of the American east coast before catching up with Cole for the second time. He's actually John White, one of your allies for the first game, and his real goal is to save potential Conduits from the plague now killing humanity. Unfortunately, saving them requires more ray sphere explosions to activate their latent powers, resulting in more destruction, more deaths, and a greater spread of the plague — in other words, the extinction of the human race. | |

In Over the Garden Wall, the Big Bad is called the Beast. As noted on the series' character page, however, it comes off as a Non-Indicative Name, as the Beast is a well-spoken Humanoid Abomination whose true form resembles a plant more than an animal. Then again, with all the show's references to The Divine Comedy, he might be a reference to a specific Beast. | |

X-Men: The series offers a rare heroic version in the form of Hank McCoy, AKA Beast: codenamed for his gorilla-like physique, enormous hands and feet, and (later) his blue fur and other animalistic attributes. In sharp contrast to his beastly appearance, Hank is commonly portrayed as a brilliant scientist and a gentleman. However, this is played straight by his Mad Scientist Evil Counterpart Dark Beast, as well as his Bad Future self that shows up in New X-Men, and later in The Krakoan Age, Beast is the increasingly morally compromised leader of X-Force. | |

Piecing Together the Ashes: Reconstructing the Old World Order: The backstory has the General Ripper-turned-President Evil who took control of America from a left-wing government in a Military Coup, and proceeded to persecute Muslims, invade neighboring countries when they protested his actions, and finally nuked the world in a delusional belief that God told him to do so. By the "present" of the story's far-future setting, he's remembered only as "the Beast" and is considered to have been evil incarnate. | |

Path of Exile: The Beast is a creature mentioned in the lore as a source of virtue gems and thaumaturgy. It is a Reality Warper that created the Eldritch Abominations you see in Acts 3 and 4. In Act 4, the Exile ventures inside the Beast to destroy it. The Beast was created by Sin to suppress the gods and put them in an eternal slumber, but Sin created the Beast with no ambition of its own, which made it vulnerable to ambitious humans trying to use the Beast for their gain. | |

The Beast of Darkness (or simply "the Beast") from Berserk is Guts's Enemy Within. This horrific Hellhound-like monstrosity is the manifestation of all the fear, hatred and other negative emotions that arose in Guts after the living hell that was The Eclipse, and it wants more than anything to have Guts take revenge on the Godhand and every demon in existence while turning Guts into a monster himself. | |

In Vampire: The Masquerade, The Beast is the true nature of the vampire - a savage, mindless killing machine without any remorse or inhibitions. Most vampires desperately cling to some semblance of being a human solely in order to retain self-control and keep The Beast at bay; some choose other, more alien philosophies, but everyone agrees that losing yourself completely to your primal nature is a very bad thing. | |

In Kung Fu Hustle, one of the many villains is an Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy dubbed "the Beast"note This is a Dub Name Change. In the original Cantonese, his name was 火雲邪神 ("Fire Cloud Evil God"). Known for his Toad-style fighting technique, he spent a big chunk of the backstory killing various masters in search of a Worthy Opponent, before checking himself into a mental asylum out of sheer boredom. Despite his seemingly-lackadaisical appearance and laid-back attitude, he soon proves himself one of the deadliest combatants in the film by killing the apparent Big Bad and taking centre stage as the main villain of the story. | |

The dreaded guard dog of The Sandlot is popularly known as "The Beast" by the local kids; believed to be genetically-altered by his equally-dreaded owner and responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people, nobody even dares to broach the fence for a closer look at him... which is a bit of a problem when Scotty ends up losing a priceless baseball over the fence. It turns out that the dog is not only harmless, but is actually a Big Friendly Dog. His real name is Hercules. | |

Preacher: At one point God names Cassidy "Beast" to express contempt for Cassidy being a blood-drinking parasite that crawls in the night. And despite God's own many failings, this judgement of Cassidy was correct. Cassidy lives down to the name due to his tendency to drag other people down into ruin with his careless selfish hedonism. | |

Normally, this would be just another sign of Kreia's Fantastic Racism, but in Hanharr's case, he's more than earned the title: quite apart from his crimes as a hunter and his efforts to murder anyone he owes a life-debt to, his own tribe exiled him for insanity before he killed them in a demented attempt to save them from enslavement. | |

Unbelievably enough, this reputation led to her becoming partners with the Red Hand and paving the way for even bigger atrocities. | |

In Split, the last and most feared of all Kevin Wendell Crumb's multiple personalities is the Beast. Revered as a godlike entity by Hedwig, Dennis and Patricia, he's the logical conclusion of the Clap Your Hands If You Believe nature of the personalities, possessing superhuman strength, speed, and even bullet-proof skin. Also, he's possessed of an appropriately animalistic personality, either crushing his foes with his bare hands or literally devouring their bodies. | |

Warhammer 40,000: The War of the Beast was the single most destructive war the Imperium ever faced since the Horus Heresy against the biggest Ork warlord ever; known as the Beast, he was so huge he was at first mistaken for a Humongous Mecha and also terrifyingly intelligent by Ork standards. And then it turns out there were six of them. In addition, The Beast's Orcish name was translated to Gothic as "I am Slaughter"... but in Orcish, it was "Mag Uruk Thraka", marking Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka, the Beast of Armageddon, as the next incarnation of The Beast. That Mag Uruk Thraka sounds like Margaret Thatcher is either an unfortunate coincidence or a full-on Take That!, depending on who you ask. | |

Throughout What We Do in the Shadows, frequent references are made to Vladislav's arch-nemesis, known as "The Beast". It is eventually revealed to be a subversion, as The Beast is just an ex-girlfriend who barely remembers him when they encounter each other at a party. | |

In Beauty and the Beast and its various adaptations, the eponymous character is so named due to his animalistic appearance and brutish nature, the result of his Karmic Transformation into a monster. It's not until he is able to overcome his beasty attitude and win true love that he loses both the name and the appearance. | |

The Chase: Mark Labbett goes by "The Beast" due to his genius-level knowledge of trivia, and perhaps also his imposing figure at the time of the show. As a Chaser, he is basically the antagonist of the episodes he's in, as the players have to compete against him to win. | |

The Sopranos: Phil Leotardo takes to referring to Tony Blundetto as "Animal Blundetto" after the latter murdered his brother Billy during the Lupertazzi civil war. In reality, Tony B. was more of a Beware the Nice Ones-type guy who got in over his head when he recklessly tried to make a name for himself, with the vicious, hotheaded Phil himself being a much better candidate for that title. | |

Gravity Falls: Bill Cipher, the series Big Bad, is once called the 'Beast With Just One Eye' by Fiddleford. Given the many Eldritch Abominations he transforms into later, this is deserved. | |
