* [[Epileptic Trees]]: Ein is the only known Grim Angel who isn't leucistic, a condition where a person has unnaturally pale skin (even Malice and {{spoiler|Nessiah}}, who are artificial and [[Fallen Angel|wingless]] respectively, have leucism). No one knows why. [[Dept Heaven/WMG|There are some guesses.]] |

A recurring character over the ''[[Dept Heaven]]'' series, Hector is one of the Seven Magi, and is finally the main villain of Riviera. He spent the past several millennia planning a takeover of Asgard, and set it into motion by getting Malice to revive demons in Riviera, giving him an excuse to send his [[Laser Guided Tykebomb]] trio down to actuate the Retribution and destroy Riviera, conveniently giving him the opportunity to grasp the gods' power for himself. Unfortunately for Hector, Ursula kidnapped and converted the weakest [[Laser Guided Tykebomb]], Ein, and turned him into her own [[Laser Guided Tykebomb|Laser Guided]] ''[[Spanner in the Works]]''. Hector's grandiose and complicated [[Xanatos Roulette]] is brought to a screeching halt [[For Want of a Nail]]. |
