"Oh!! I must have those power pellets! Go find me the Power Pellet Forest!" |
Mezmaron[1] is the main antagonist of the Pac-Man animated series. He is the leader of the Ghost Monsters, and his main goal is to take over Pac-Land by stealing all of the Power Pellets in Pac-Land from the Power Pellet Forest.
Overview[]
Mezmaron is a foreboding humanoid with pale skin and yellow eyes, wearing a red cloak with a golden mask on his mouth. He speaks through an electronic filter. His main goal is to capture Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man, seize the Power Pellet Forest, and harness the energy of its Power Pellets to conquer Pac-Land.
Mezmaron seems to almost never want to do anything himself; his main role in the series is to give orders to the Ghost Monsters, then verbally and physically abuse them when they fail or do something wrong (which happens a lot). Even though he is able-bodied and quite powerful and resourceful, he hasn't often directly antagonized the Pac-People himself as often as Pac-Man, aside from a few episodes. He more often keeps sending the Ghost Monsters out on one doomed-to-fail mission after another. Mezmaron is also shown to be short-tempered, particularly with the Ghost Monsters' lack of intellect and the tendency to fail a lot. Mezmaron’s mouth is never revealed.
As shown in the episode "The Day the Forest Disappeared", he uses the energy of the Power Pellets to control Pac-Land's power supply. For a brief period of time, this leaves Pac-Land at his mercy.
It has been shown that Ghost Monsters are able to wear his cloak after being chomped by Pac-Man. Mezmaron has an entire closet full of identical cloaks in the same room where the Ghost Monsters' extra Ghost Suits are kept.
Trivia[]
- It is presumed that some later Pac-Man villains, such as Ghost Witch of Netor, the Ghost Lord, and Spooky (and to a lesser extent, Lord Betrayus) took inspiration from Mezmaron. The Ghost Witch of Netor, in particular, has an almost identical personality and role to Mezmaron.
