Trigon

""Your time has come, Raven.""

- Trigon

Trigon is a powerful, inter-dimensional demon in Teen Titans Go! and Raven's estranged father, who made his debut in the episode Dog Hand. He is a major adversary of the Teen Titans, as well as their most powerful enemy. He is voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson.

Bio
According to the Titans, Trigon is known as the devourer of a million souls, conqueror of countless worlds, and one of the most powerful beings in the universe.

Trigon, in his first Teen Titans Go! appearance, is deeply saddened that his daughter, Raven, has not embraced the dark side like himself. Raven claims that he feeds off the suffering of others, especially her. He plans to have her join him by granting the other Teen Titan members' wishes to make them think he is a "cool" dad. To do this, he appears to have a pleasant, thoughtful, and funny demeanor, which allows him to quickly befriend the Titans. However, this turns out to be a ruse to conceal his true nature. In reality, he is incredibly large and is filled with hatred, malice, and a sadistic desire to feed off of the nightmares of children. However, the Titans used the powers Trigon gave them to defeat him. He is then thrown into a dimensional portal that Raven herself opened and apparently sealed away.

At the end of the episode, Raven mentions he probably return for Thanksgiving.

He later appeared in Caramel Apples. He was about to destroy the world, as Raven didn't give him a Father's Day gift. When Starfire gives him one, he appears to tear up, and decides that he won't destroy Earth after all. Later, Trigon comes, and gives Starfire a kitty. Raven then throws him out with her soul-self, which makes Trigon sad. As he was sitting on a rock, Starfire invited him to a Silly Dance Party, which he gladly accepts. Later, Trigon shows his photo gallery of Raven to Starfire, showing her when she was a baby, etc. When Raven found out, she ripped the gallery. However, Trigon was able to get one, showing Trigon and Raven torturing a demon. Later, when Starfire and Raven got mad at each other, Trigon implied that there had to be a way to settle this argument. This causes Raven and Starfire to fight, while he is eating popcorn. Later, when they make up, he got mad, implying it was just getting interesting. Raven and Starfire combined their powers to throw him out of this planet, but not before he says "See you in Thanksgiving!".

Personality
He is highly manipulative and untrustworthy, which are traits that are rather common among most demonic characters. He appears to be generally friendly and outgoing at first, but is really only interested in making his daughter embrace her demonic side and destroy the Titans.

Curiously, unlike his comic counterpart, and the one from the original Teen Titans series, he seems to actually care about Raven to some degree, albeit in a somewhat warped way. He is apparently also saddened by his daughter not being more like him, and claims he is very proud of her when she begins to (supposedly) embrace her more demonic side.

Appearance
Trigon is a massive red demon with a large, muscular build. He has numerous stripe-like black tattoos or markings on his body, long white hair, and hoof-like feet. He has a pair of long, brown horns and sharp teeth. Trigon also has two sets of eyes, one upper and one lower, and a red gem on his forehead similar to the one of his daughter's.

He normally doesn't wear much clothing other than chain mail like armor on his waist and a pair of silver wrist bands. However, in Dog Hand he wears a pink sweater vest and white collared shirt. He can change his size at will, shrinking himself down to the size of a larger than average human.

Trivia

 * Unlike the Trigon in the original Teen Titans series, this Trigon is depicted as being a great deal more humorous.
 * Also, this one can turn smaller and wears a work suit.
 * This one also has a Pretty Pretty Pegasus kite.
 * Trigon gave each of the Titans (except for Raven) things they always wanted.
 * Starfire: to talk and act like a real Earth teenager.
 * Beast Boy: to be able to change into any object or animal.
 * Cyborg: to have a dog for a hand.
 * Robin: to have massive muscles and immense upper body strength.
 * Silkie: to fly.
 * During Trigon's first appearance, when he talks you can hear a laugh track after his statements, much like in a sitcom.
 * In the original series, Trigon was portrayed as the ultimate evil, and a much greater threat than Slade himself, even betraying the mercenary.
 * In the original show, Trigon's first voice actor was Keith Szarabajka. However, this was part of a dream sequence, and his actor later in the series was Kevin Michael Richardson.
 * Trigon is one of the two TTG! characters outside of the Teen Titans to be made into merchandise by Jazwares, the other being Silkie.
 * He devoured millions of souls and conquered numerous dimensions.
 * It could be argued that Trigon is the single most powerful being in the series.
 * He is the second villain from the original series to return.
 * In Dog Hand, Raven said "He'll probably be back for Thanksgiving" as comedic relief, but it could say Trigon could come back. Trigon also said this later in Caramel Apples. This was a gag for a short while, as it was not confirmed if he would appear or not. Trigon is confirmed to be in the episode Thanksgiving, meaning the hints dropped were valid.
 * In the episode Thanksgiving, Trigon turned Cyborg into a turkey and at the end of the episode, Trigon made Batman into a turkey as well.
