- "There's only one choice left... ALLMAGEDDON!"
- ―Heptad, Sons Of The Spiritlands
Character Origins[]
Heptadd's origins are a mystery: no one knows for certain who or what Heptadd is. What is undeniable is his prowess in the Elements, his ability to use Mugic from any Tribe, and he even seems to able to use some sort of Mugical teleportation. With such incredible powers and coupled with his unusual presence, some believe Heptadd knows where the Cothica is. [1]
Regarded as one of the fiercest fighters in Perim, he has mastered the almighty Almageddon attack. His aresenal of abilities makes it almost impossible for a foe to know what they could be up against! [2]
Heptadd reveals himself comes from the Spiritlands, thus he is only able to stay as long as Heptadd's Crown is not destroyed. His crown is his Talazar, an item which allows Spiritland creatures to stay in Perim.
Despite Heptadd's enigmatic nature, his abilities make him among the most trusted of the OverWorlders.[1][2]
Etymology[]
A "heptad" is a group of seven things, referencing the prominence of the number seven in the series. The extra "D" in Heptadd's name makes it seven letters long.
Appearance[]
Heptadd has a purplish body, with a green head. He has long, spiky red hair, a reddish eye and light blue eye, and has very sharp teeth. He also wears golden leg and wrist armor, a crown seated atop his head.
Background Information[]
Personality and Behaviour[]
Heptadd has been portrayed to be largely worried about the safety of Perim, working strongly to protect it (as seen in Son of the Spiritlands).
Affiliations, Loyalties and Allies[]
Heptadd is allied with Maxxor and the rest of the OverWorlders.
Enemies[]
Heptadd's archrival is Takinom. [1]
Strategies[]
Heptadd's main advantage is having all elements, so a whole range of attacks are available to him, though his power is held back by his lack of damage boosts and below-average stats. This makes him a questionable choice for decks that do not require all four Elemental Types, as OverWorld has a plethora of Creatures with superior Disciplines and Energy (including Gronmor and Tangath Toborn, In Training).
4-Element decks can make use of Heptadd's biggest strength with Attacks such as Apoc-eclipse, Landgore, Blaze Barrage, and Twister of Elements to quickly filter out weaker attacks and deal high damage; other powerful options include Flaming Coals, Whirling Wail and Ice Disks. While Heptadd is compatible with Allmageddon, the attack itself is underwhelming for the cost. Sink Scream allows Heptadd to get rid of all your opponent's discipline scores, though the utility of this is again very weak compared to the cost of running the attack.
Heptadd's ability is somewhat constrained due to only having a single Mugic counter by default and due to OverWorld already having a large selection of strong Mugic, but it can be used to slot in cards like Song of Desperation, Elemental Elegy, or Melody of Mirage to provide disruption.
Heptadd's ideal Battlegear is Citadel Fragments so that he gains 20 in all disciplines and, much more importantly, 20 energy for his elements. Gigantroper gives the same bonus and is not vulnerable to Battlegear removal, if you do not plan to make use of his ability.
Release and Promotion[]
Heptadd is one of the Big 4 which consist of 4 Ultra Rare from the set 'Dawn of Perim'. He shares the rank with Chaor (leader of the UnderWorld), Maxxor (leader of the OverWorld), and Lord Van Bloot (The Rebellious UnderWorlder).
He can be found in Starter Decks, both OverWorld or Underworld from Dawn of Perim, if you are extremely lucky. Seemingly that Ultras come in the ratio 1:5 and the chance of bumping into Heptadd rather than other Ultras is hard as well. Heptadd cannot be obtained in booster packs.
In addition in 2008, Chaotic released Chaotic 2008 Tins, in which Heptadd can be found 1:20 chance. If you even find an Ultra, it still might be anything from Maxxor to Heptadd. This version of Heptadd is misprinted with Fire and Earth as its only Elemental types.
Heptadd was released in Hawaii as a promotion and now holds an incredible value. The Hawaiian version of Heptadd is not different than the original Heptadd other than the fact it says HAWAIIAN EXPO.

Trivia[]
- Heptadd was the only released card from DOP that had all 4 elements without help. The only card except Heptadd to have 4 elements is Tassanil High Elementalist, but this card is unreleased.
- Heptadd's strongest move is Allmageddon, but in the episode 'Allmageddon', it is stated that only Hoton knows about the legendary attack. It was proved in Secrets of the Lost City episode 12, he knew Allmageddon.
- Heptadd can cast Mugic from any Tribe which could mean, he has joined other tribes before or obtained the power of the Cothica. Which is relatively possible due to the fact he has all 4 elements.
- Ironically, the BattleGear Heptadd's Crown is useless when equipped to Heptadd.
- This also happens to be his Talazar.
