| “ | With an army of Master Hands under its control, Galeem sought to create a new world. The fighters and their countless stories... came to an end as the light consumed them. Thus, the universe was crushed in the hands of Galeem. Those who fought the light were devoured. The others lost their bodies and became spirits. Only one survived... A star of hope twinkles faintly as the dust settles on the new world. Galeem copied the fallen fighters, creating empty puppets in their likenesses... Then, Galeem forced the captive spirits to pull the puppets' strings. This army of puppet fighters spread themselves across the last remaining world. Can anyone free the spirits from Galeem's control? Is there any hope for the fallen fighters? The journey to defeat Galeem begins. | ” |
| ~ The Narrator describing Galeem's evil acts. |
Galeem (in Japanese: キーラ, Kiira) is one of the two main antagonists (alongside Dharkon) of the 2018 video game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate story mode "World of Light" along with Dharkon. It is the light counterpart of Dharkon. While Dharkon wishes to eradicate all life in darkness, Galeem wishes to bring it into pure light.
Actions and Characteristics[]
- It was the most heinous villain in the entire Super Smash Bros. franchise, equaled only by its dark counterpart, because it wiped out almost every life form in the Nintendo multiverse, creating an army composed by brainwashed spirits possessing fighters' clones. It even possessed the big bad to the franchise, Master Hand, in order to control him like a puppet and create an entire army with his clones. In its ending, it turned the entire multiverse with his light.
- It was the most powerful being in the franchise, along with Dharkon. Its light was able to wipe out every fighter and subjugate the entire Nintendo multiverse, being able to consume in one hit even powerful characters like Bayonetta or Palutena, or even outrun Sonic. Even Tabuu, the big bad of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, who was able to kill the entire roster with a single hit, was turned into a spirit by Galeem. As shown in its ending, the only thing that stopped it from destroying everything was Dharkon's existence.
- While it may be a deity without any clear agency, it actually showed intelligence, as after its first defeat, it immediately realized that Dharkon was getting the upper hand and it ran away, only to come back when Dharkon too was weakened.
