When he was traveling he fell over into the darkness and became the evil Digimon Emperor—an absolute genius, all-star athlete and pretty-boy in the Real World, a megalomaniac bent on world domination in the Digital World. He lost a brother when he was younger and was later able to use his brother’s forgiveness to overcome the darkness.
