[edit] Biography
[edit] .hack//Roots
In .hack//Roots, Haseo is a newbie player to the video game known as "The World". He is an outcast in real life, and not very good at dealing with people. Upon logging into The World R:2, Haseo is attacked by PKs, (Player Killers), and rescued by Ovan, the Guild master of the Twilight Brigade.
Haseo then joins the Twilight Brigade in its quest to discover the Key of the Twilight. Eventually, after Ovan disappears for an extended period of time, the Twilight Brigade is disbanded and Shino is Data-Drained by Tri-Edge. Obsessed with saving Shino, Haseo continually seeks power, culminating in his journey into the Painful Forest, a new Lost Ground, where, after confronting another AI Harald, his PC body was transformed.
At that point level 133 and equipped with an arsenal of incredibly powerful weapons, Haseo became the Terror of Death, a PKK, or Player Killer Killer, who hunted down Player Killers. Upon finding them, he demanded information on Tri-Edge; if they failed to give any useful information, which was usual, he killed them. The name Terror of Death was the title given to him by players, as he truly cared nothing for any other player save Shino.
Around this time, Ovan returns and informs Haseo that Tri-Edge will reappear shortly at the Great Cathedrals Lost Ground. Haseo attempted to defeat Azure Kite as he reemerged into the World, but was Data-Drained, returning some time later as a level 1 character with no items or contact info.
[edit] .hack//G.U.
Eight months after meeting Ovan in .hack//Roots and when his close friend, Shino, was PKed by Tri-Edge, Haseo has become a solo PKK known as The Terror of Death. Ovan gives Haseo the whereabouts of Tri-Edge in the cathedral at Grima Löwe(Also know as the Hulle Granz Cathedral in the English version of .Hack//G.U. vol.1//Rebirth), (The keywords for the location are Δ Hidden Forbidden Holy Ground). Haseo faces Tri-Edge in a confrontation (fight) and is defeated easily before being Data Drained and losing consciousness.
He awakens with no armor and stripped of his levels, items, and dignity. He then agrees to assist Yata and Pi, two System Administrators in The World R:2, in their efforts to discover the reason behind recent attacks on players and a sudden increase in AIDA activity.
Haseo gains an "Avatar" of Skeith by 'awakening' (what that means is that his avatar found him). Acquiring the ability to call Skeith and wield his abilities. The following video shows a fight between Avatar Skeith and Avatar Tarvos Video. The change can only be observed by other epitaph users -- other characters with avatars, like Pi and Kuhn -- normal PCs only notice that Haseo becomes many times more powerful. However, this power has its dangers, as we see when Haseo's bloodlust and power hungry character eventually cause him to lose control over Skeith's AI component when confronting Kuhn in a PvP match.
[edit] Other Appearances
In the preview of Keroro Gunso: Meromero Battle Royal Z, Keroro was transported to the .Hack//G.U. world and annoyed Haseo until he began attacking Keroro. After realizing he fell for a trick so Keroro could pull out the box of the game, Haseo spin kicked Keroro out of his world.
