Chernabog

Line 127:

==Origin==

Chernabog first appeared in Walt Disney's ''{{w|Fantasia (film)|Fantasia}}'', during the ''Night on Bald Mountain'' segment, in which he erupts from the mountain in the same way as in the game. Chernabog awakens on top of Bald Mountain on {{w|Walpurgis Night}}, and uses his dark powers to raise ghosts, skeletons, demons, witches, harpies, goblins, and zombies from a nearby town. He summons fire and lava, and makes the wretches in his control dance and fly around, before he destroys them. However, the Angelus bells suddenly begin ringing, heralding sunrise, driving Chernabog and his slaves back into hiding, as a line of monks proceeds through the forest and a ruined cathedral to the sounds of ~~the~~ "{{w|~~Hail Mary~~}}".

His name is taken from the Slavic deity {{w|Crnobog}}, whose name means "black god". However, Disney designed him with Satan in mind. His Japanese name, "Demon of Fantasia", references his role in ''Fantasia'', the Disney film he first appeared in.
