Background
Dais is the Dark Warlord of Illusion. He has a patch over one eye, probably a memento from a previous battle. He is commonly associated with spiders, and frequently hangs upside down when in his armor. It is also hinted at that Dais makes many prophecies.
Dais is a thinker and a schemer. He was the last of the original four Dark Warlords to face the Ronin Warriors. He likes to draw out plans and make sure they are perfect before he enacts them.
Dais, being the most clever of the Warlords is frequently the one to come up with the more elaborate plans. He has used his powers of illusion to trick the Ronins into attacking each other. A plot which worked very well. He also devised a plot to use the Nether Spirits to prevent the Ronin Warriors from being able to call upon their Armors.
Talpa called upon Dais to convince Kento that his Armor was evil, and that he should turn against the Ronins and join the Dynasty. While Dais failed in convincing Kento to join the Dynasty, all of Kento's trust in his Armor had been removed, disabling Kento's ability to use his Armor.
Dais was also called upon once to capture Kento and bring him back to the Dynasty Realm. Kento was able to overpower the Sand Strikers, who were under Dais' leadership, and was about to deal with the Warlord himself. Dais, thought quickly. He showed Kento that his friends Sai and Sage were captured. Kento then went willingly with Dais, believing that he could free his friends. The fact that he was walking into a trap never dawned on him.
Dais, like Kale and Sekhmet, was called upon less and less as Lady Kayura entered the scene. Dais eventually realized that he was only being used by Talpa and turned to the side of light. Dais joined with the Ronins in the final battle and fought against his old master, Talpa.
Powers and Abilities
Dais' powers and abilities are many indeed. He is probably the most versatile of the Dark Warlords (except for Kayura who attained the powers of both Anubis and The Ancient) in his range of powers.
Dais has three weapons available to him at all times. On his right gauntlet he has a morning star (a spiked ball connected to a handle by a long rope or chain). The rope on his morning star can extend to increase the range of his attacks. On his left gauntlet he has a pair of nunchuka. He is very proficient with his nunchucka. He uses them with such power and speed that his opponents do not know what hit them.
Dais' special weapon are the six extensor blades attached to his back. He can remove them and use them as a hand weapon. The bars to which the blades are connected can extend and shoot forward at an adversary. Also they can beginning to spin rapidly around the base creating the effect of many powerful staffs spinning around the same access. The blades can also be used with Dais's illusionary powers to create the feelings and sights that reality is being torn apart by the blades and replaced by whatever Dais wants his victims to see.
Dais's special attack is "Web of Deception!" In this attack the extensor blades extend forward until they hit something solid (ground, building, people, etc.) When contact is made, many fine white threads of energy fly from the points of contact and begin to ensnare Dais' enemies. He often uses multiple attacks of this nature to create an almost unbreakable web.
In addition to his fighting skills and abilities, Dais has many powers of illusion at his disposal. He can alter the terrain so that it appears as whatever he wants it to. He can camouflage himself to match the terrain, making him invisible. He can also change how an individual person perceives the world (ex. Making friends appear as enemies).
