Ozma of Chaos (Korean: 혼돈의 오즈마 Hondone Ojeuma), also known as the God of Chaos (Korean: 혼돈의 신 Hondone Sin), is an enemy character and secondary antagonist from Dungeon Fighter Online (DFO) and Dungeon & Fighter Mobile (DNFM). In DFO, he originally served as the final boss for the now unavailable Otherverse dungeon Dark Side, and currently acts as primary antagonist of the Black Order Resurgence Arc and the final boss for the Otherworldly Dark Side dungeon Throne of Chaos. In DNFM's version of Ozma Raid, he appears with three phase variations: an angelic version known as Ozma of Creation (Korean: 창조의 오즈마 Changjoe Ojeuma), an apocalyptic version known as Ozma of Armageddon (Korean: 종말의 오즈마 Jongmare Ojeuma), and a void version known as Ozma of Nothingness (Korean: 무의 오즈마 Mue Ojeuma).
Originally a hero of the Pelos Empire from 800 years ago, he was betrayed and sentenced to death by the very people he swore to protect. He made a deal with a Reaper that transformed him into a Demon, and waged a century-long war against mankind known as the Black Crusade, which nearly wiped out the human race from Arad over 600 years ago. He is responsible for the creation of the Imposters, the Curse of Blood, and the God of Destruction, the decline and fall of the Pelos Empire, and the recent appearance of Demons on the Arad Continent as well as the indirect creation of the Priest Order, the Black Order, the Kazan Syndrome, the Avengers, and the Mistress Phenomenon.
According to Aradian history, he was once a human known as the Great Mage Ozma, a magical prodigy who was raised by the Elves and was once regarded as the greatest mage in the Pelos Empire. Renown for many feats, his greatest was saving the Arad Continent with his friend Great General Kazan from the Dragon invasion led by the Berserk Dragon Hismar. However, after the then Pelos Emperor framed him and Kazan for treason and sentenced them to death in an act of fear and jealousy, Ozma sold his own soul to a Reaper in exchange for the power to enact his revenge and to cleanse the world of the sins of humanity. After his execution, Ozma resurrected from death as a Demon, and with his newfound powers as the 'God of Chaos', he unleashed a plague upon the land which plunged Arad into an Age of Chaos and mustered a Demon army to eradicate mankind. During his conquest, he waged war against mankind's last alliance led by Michael of the Holy Eye, which consisted of the forces of Pelos, Suju, and the Priest Order, who ultimately defeated him and sealed him away along with his army and the entirety of Dark Side within another dimension known as the Otherverse.
Although, Ozma remains sealed for now, his presence still lingers: Imposters continue to roam the continent and signs of his seal weakening and of his resurrection become more evident with every subsequent Metastasis as increasingly more Demons arrive from the other world. It seems while trapped, Ozma still continues his campaign to eradicate mankind, readying a new army of Imposters to wage another Crusade against Arad when he escapes from his dimensional prison.
Prior to the Great Metastasis Update, Ozma initially appeared as the final enemy of Dark Side during the Priest Order's investigation of the Otherverse in the Epic Quests Once More Into the Breach, where he was revealed to be the Eleventh Apostle (Korean: 제11사도 Je Sib-il Sado) of Pandemonium, also known as The One Who Rose from Death (Korean: 죽음에서 일어난 자 Jugeumeseo Ireonan Ja). However, after the Origin Update, this reveal was changed to an unspecified time after his imprisonment and prior to the canonization of Saint Michael as an Apostle, and his reappearance would be at the finale of the Black Order Resurgence Arc.

[hide]History
More than 800 years prior to the events of the story, Ozma was once known as the greatest wizard in the Pell Los Empire. In Arad Year 152, he and his friend, Pelos General Khazan, saved the world by killing the empire's scourge, the Berserk Dragon Hismar, ending its fifty-two-year long reign of terror. The two individuals were regarded as national heroes and their strength helped bring the Pell Los Empire to the peak of its power.
However, as years passed, the Pell Los Emperor Pahlmerier I grew paranoid and wary of their fame, believing that their power would eventually supplant his own and cause him to be overthrown. It was during this time, a mysterious hooded individual arrived, and informed the Emperor of a prophecy which foretold the eminent destruction of the empire. In an attempt to avoid fate, the Emperor orchestrated a conspiracy to get rid of both Ozma and Khazan, but in doing so, sealed the Empire's demise.
In Arad Year 157, the Emperor framed Khazan for treason and sent Ozma to pursue him. While the two fought each other and became weakened, the Emperor sent another group of soldiers to capture and subdue them. The two individuals were both framed for treason, imprisoned, and tortured. The Empire stripped Khazan of his strength by removing the tendons in his arms and robbed Ozma of his sight by putting out his eyes. Additionally, Kazan and Ozma's families were to be executed with the exception of Ozma's fiancée Reese who was taken as the Emperor's noble consort.
While imprisoned alongside Khazan and awaiting execution, Ozma felt great betrayal for his services to the Empire and became disgusted upon seeing how quickly and easily the people were swayed into believing the Emperor's conspiracy. His thoughts ventured down a dark path. Thoughts of revenge on those who wrong them clouded his mind until it descended and evolved into the eradication of humankind. He sought to bring to the world the same sense of betrayal he experienced and let chaos reign supreme. But he had no way to do so...
It was during this desperate hour that Ozma was visited by an emissary of death, a Reaper, who promised him the power he desired in exchange for his soul. At first, Ozma, still clinging to a sense of righteousness, turned down its offer, and attempted to drive the Reaper away. But as time passed, his desperation and insanity grew. Upon his execution, as he was cast into the southern sea to die, the reaper appeared before him again and Ozma accepted his proposal. It was then, the once great wizard Ozma had died, and had given way to the newly resurrected God of Chaos.
One year later, Ozma initiated his plan and began assembling his army of darkness. He searched for his old friend Kazan, eventually found the exiled, disgraced general wandering aimlessly in the Stru Mountains barely clinging to life. Acknowledging their past friendship, Ozma released Kazan from his human form, transforming him into a Ghost, and offered him an opportunity to join his Army of Darkness. Having given up on humanity, Kazan refused his offer and the two parted ways. Kazan became the God of Destruction wandering aimlessly around the Arad Continent spreading his Kazan Syndrome while Ozma became the God of Chaos spreading his Curse of Blood and continued his pursuit to create his Army of Darkness to wipe out humanity.
Through Ozma's efforts, creatures known as Imposters began showing up in Arad. These beings were former humans who fell victim to the Curse of Blood and were monsters that disguised themselves as humans with an insatiable bloodlust. Those who were attacked by Imposters also became Imposters. Because the Imposters were not distinguishable from normal people by the way they look, it created mistrust and witch hunts within the populace; descending the continent of Arad into chaos. Around Arad Year 211, a group of individuals known as priests began combating the growing number of Imposters and would eventually grow into a major organization.

But although Ozma had failed in his campaign to destroy humankind, he succeeded in getting revenge against his perpetrators and led to the fall and destruction of the once great Pell Los Empire.
While trapped, Ozma readied a new army of Imposters to wage another war upon Arad for when he would eventually escape from his dimensional prison. But he was not alone; trapped along with him was the Priest General, Michaela of the Holy Eye. The two individuals constantly clashed with one another for centuries, unable to kill each other.
Original Story Version
In Arad Year 993, the ongoing Metastasis phenomenon gradually eroded the boundaries between dimensions, causing the seal on his dimension prison to weaken. Taking advantage of this, Ozma began sending small portions of his army, Chaos Demons, through the Metastasis-created dimensional rifts back into Arad. As a result of the increased demon sightings across the continent, the Priest Order began a large-scale investigation of these rifts.
Around Arad Year 1002, the Priest Order, while investigating the Chaos Demon phenomenon in a Interdimensional Rift left in Noire Ferra, discovered a demon stronghold in the Otherverse. It was at this time, his longtime adversary, Michaela, had met his end to a group of adventurers exploring the rift. With now nothing holding him back, Ozma prepared his army for war. However, before he could leave his dimensional prison, he was stopped by the same group of adventurers. Although he was greatly weakened from his centuries long struggle with Michaela, Ozma fought against the adventurers, and he, too, met his inevitable end.
Although the Priest Order and the people of Arad celebrated the death of Ozma, heavy residual effects remained. The Imposters still remained. And in their blind pursuit to vanquish evil, they had caused the deaths of two more Apostles, bringing the prophecy of Arad's destruction closer to fruition.

Trivia
Etymology
- The name Ozma is of Scandinavian origins given to girls that means God's Protection.
Concept
- His overall character motif takes inspiration from Vlad Tepes Dracula, the primary antagonist of the Castlevania franchise, and shares a few similarities to the Vampire Lord in which:
- They both originally started off as human in their past lives.
- Turned against all of humanity after losing a loved one.
- Both are incarnations of Chaos.
In-Game
- He is featured through flavor text upon his transformation on the Level 100 Armor set, Ruination: The Path to Hell.
- His You be the God of Destruction; I'll be the God of Chaos line appears in Black Shrine's Chamber of Secrets upon meeting certain requirements.
- During Ozma Raid, his Two Phase boss fights play out very similarly to two Capcom-related titles:
- Phase 1 functions like Urizen's Enthroned state in the 2019 Devil May Cry 5 when being protected by a floating crystal.
- Phase 2 is somewhat identical with Lord Deimos, the final boss from the 1993 Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom.
Miscellaneous
- Ozma's attire was first available for the Male Fighter in an older package called Apostle's Descendant Avatars, then later returned in Advent of Apostles for Male Gunner & Male Mage.
