'''Cerberus''' is a three-headed hellhound who guards the [[Underworld]]. He first appeared as Hades's loyal pet in Disney's ''{{w|Hercules (1997 film)|Hercules}}'', as guard dog to the Underworld. Cerberus serves as a boss in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts coded]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Dark Road]]''.


==Story==
'''Cerberus''' is a mythical three-headed demon dog that first appeared in Disney's ''[[wikipedia:Hercules (1997 film)|Hercules]]'', as guard dog to the Underworld. [[Hades]] used his pet in both ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
[[File:Cerberus 01 KH.png|thumb|200px|left|Cerberus prepares to attack Sora, Donald, and Goofy.]]
Cerberus acts as a back-up plan for Hades if [[Cloud]], who Hades promised to help in finding [[Sephiroth]], fails his task of eliminating [[Hercules]] and [[Sora]].


When Sora and Cloud's battle comes to an end (regardless of who wins), Hades sees that Cloud is no longer of any use to him, and sends Cerberus in. Cerberus quickly crushes Cloud beneath its front paw when his back is turned, and is about to attack the others, but is held off by Hercules, allowing [[Phil]], Sora, [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]] to escape.
Like the [[Behemoth]], in ''Kingdom Hearts'', Cerberus is at his strongest stat-wise during the [[Hades Cup]]; stats are not shown. Also during the Hades Cup, you will gain 1000 EXP for defeating him the first time; every time after that, you will only gain 100 EXP.  


Cerberus has Hercules, who is carrying Cloud, trapped, but Sora comes to help, returning the favor and allowing Hercules to escape. Sora manages to defeat Cerberus, and his efforts reward him the status of "Junior Heroes". However, as Sora leaves, Hercules mentions to Phil that he had already worn Cerberus down by the time Sora intervened.
==Journal Entries==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
''Guardian of the entrance of the Underworld and Hades's loyal servant. Herc defeated him once, but Hades has brought him back to fight Sora and his friends.''


Cerberus encounters Sora again in the [[Hades Cup]], now more able to take more punishment, but the monster fails to defeat Sora.
''It first stood watch for Hades in "Hercules" (1997).''
{{-}}


===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
As Sora, Donald, Goofy, and [[Auron]] are escaping from the Underworld, Hades sends Cerberus to stop them. Donald and Goofy escape as Auron fights off the creature. Sora returns to aid him, but ends up separated from Donald and Goofy, leaving him and Auron to fight the monster by themselves. The two then manage to get away, and Cerberus is trapped behind the doors as they close, but not before Sora, Donald, and Goofy taunt him by making faces. Cerberus has its own cup in the Underworld, being the final opponent of the [[Cerberus Cup]] in a timed fight.
''Hercules (1997)''


===''Kingdom Hearts coded''===
''Guardian of the entrance to the Underworld and Hades' loyal "pet."''
Data-Cerberus appears as a threat to Data-Hercules, Data-Cloud, and Data-Sora. He is one of four sources of the [[Bug Blox]] corruption in the [[Olympus Coliseum]].


==Design==
''Hercules, Sora, Donald, and Goofy teamed up to defeat it last time, but Hades brought him back -- and he's as dangerous as ever.''
Cerberus is a massive, three-headed dog with black fur and short, cropped ears. His heads are identical to each other, each sporting the same enormous mouths, pink tongues, and long, sharp teeth. All three heads feature glowing red eyes. Cerberus's legs are rather short, and each ends in a paw with three grey claws. He has a thin tail and seems to be quite muscular.


==Personality==
==Appearances==
Cerberus has an angry and feisty personality, but will obey his master, [[Hades]], whenever he is called into battle. However, he will retaliate if Hades beats him too much.
* [[Olympus Coliseum]]


==Strategy==
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
Cerberus is fought after the fight with [[Cloud]] at the [[Preliminary Tournament]], and is the third boss of the [[Hades Cup]], fought at Round 30.
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Cerberus acts as a back-up plan for Hades, if [[Cloud]], whom Hades promised to help find [[Sephiroth]] for him, fails his task of eliminating [[Hercules]] and [[Sora]].  


It is important to be able to climb on top of Cerberus's back, in order to avoid his Miasma of Darkness and Firaga Ball attacks. Alternatively, one may use [[Dodge Roll]] to avoid Cerberus's Miasma of Darkness attack, or even deft running. Going under Cerberus when he uses Miasma of Darkness will not work. Lock on to one of the outside heads and remain close to Cerberus's side.
When Sora and Cloud's battle comes to an end (regardless of who wins), Hades sees that Cloud is no longer of any use to him, and sends Cerberus in. Cerberus manages to pin the Buster Sword to the ground when his back is turned, and is about to attack the others, but is held off by Hercules, allowing [[Phil]], Sora, [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]] to escape.


Use the Guard ability to deflect his fireballs. Use his back and the stairs as places to heal, which is important to do often. Be sure to stock up on Ethers and Potions, or be sure to equip a Keyblade and items that give Sora at least 10 [[MP]]. Do not rely on Donald for healing, as he dies quickly, especially in the first battle.
Cerberus has Hercules, who is carrying Cloud, trapped, but Sora comes to help, returning the favor and allowing Hercules to escape. Sora manages to defeat Cerberus, and his efforts reward him the status of "Junior Heroes". However, as Sora leaves, Hercules mentions to Phil that he had already worn Cerberus down by the time Sora intervened.
 
Be sure to lock on and attack the heads on the side, not the middle head. Use [[Dodge Roll]] and/or Glide (or alternatively, Superglide) often to get away from his Bite. After several attempts to bite, he will stand on two legs and roar in the air. When he does this run away from him, or be ready to jump, as he is about to use a powerful shockwave.


Keep attacking the heads with your Keyblade and use a combination of Fire and Thunder magic to finish him off. While attacking the side heads, cast [[Aeroga]] on Sora to increase the damage. The reward for winning this battle is the Inferno Band.
Cerberus can be fought again in full power at the [[Hades Cup]], having four health bars instead of two (thus proving the fact that Hercules had worn it down). However, Since the first time you may not have got Cure, he might seem easier the second time you fight him.

===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
====Underworld====
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', as Sora, Donald, Goofy, and [[Auron]] are escaping from the Underworld, Hades sends Cerberus to stop them. Donald and Goofy escape as Auron fights off the creature. Sora returns to aid him, but ends up separated from Donald and Goofy, leaving him and Auron to fight the monster by themselves. The two then manage to get away, and Cerberus is trapped behind the doors as they close, but not before Sora, Donald, and Goofy taunt him by making faces. Cerberus has its own cup in the underworld, being the final opponent of the [[Cerberus Cup]] in a timed fight.
Cerberus is not an overly difficult enemy to defeat, he has just over two bars of [[HP]]. He is only fought once storyline wise, by Sora and Auron alone. The first thing Cerberus will (usually) do is jump right in front of Sora, so be ready to deliver an aerial combo. Auron's Bushido is immensely useful; although Sora should try to hit two heads with it.


The [[Star Seeker]] Keyblade is recommended, as its aerial boost will be helpful while performing aerial combos. Cerberus often swivels around leaving Sora nothing but his back, preventing damage. Just lock onto a head and start using combos, and Bushido whenever possible. If one wishes to use more magic, use Thunder on one head until Sora has almost no MP left, then use Bushido.
It's pretty sure that this time, Sora was able to defeat Cerberus when the giant was at full strength.


Use the Reaction Commands when caught between by the three heads to deal major damage. If Sora's HP gets low, stick to the edges and use Quick Run to avoid Cerberus when he jumps over to Sora. Defeating Cerberus will earn Auron +40 HP, and Sora the [[Dodge Slash]] ability ([[Counterguard]] in ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'').
==Strategies==
===''Kingdom Hearts''===
It is important to be able to climb on top of Cerberus's back, in order to avoid his Dark Breath attack and his Fireballs. Alternatively, you may use Dodge Roll to avoid Cerberus' Dark Breath attack, as well as the Guard ability to deflect his fireballs. (Note: going under Cerberus' back when he uses Dark Breath will not work.) Use his back and the stairs as places to heal yourself, which is important to do often. Be sure to have a load of items like Ethers and Potions. Do not rely on Donald for healing, as he dies quickly, especially in the first battle. Be sure to lock on and attack the heads on the side, not the middle head. Use Dodge Roll and Glide (or alternatively, Superglide) often to get away from his Bite. Keep attacking the heads with your Keyblade and a combination of Fire and Thunder magic to finish him off.


[[King Mickey]] can intervene if Sora's health falls in this battle.
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
Cerberus is back with a whole new range of attacks. In this fight, you battle alone with Auron, so use his strong Limit attack to deal loads of damage. Unlike the first game, climbing on Cerberus's back is unwise, due to his spinning attack that throws you off and deals damage in the process. Instead, use the edges of the large battle field to heal while Cerberus is far away. Try to stay locked on to him in order to track his whereabouts, as Cerberus jumps across the battlefield quite often (something he definitely could NOT really do the last time you fought him!). Keep your target on his outer heads. Look for the reaction commands that occasionally appear when Cerberus is stunned, to deal a lot of damage. Fire and Thunder magic help to attack Cerberus from far away. In this fight, if you die as Sora, you will have the choice to turn into Mickey Mouse. Try to get his hp down while playing as Mickey. Once you do, revive Sora and end the battle.


====Cerberus and Cerberus Paradox Cups====
You fight him alone as the top seed of the Cerberus Cup and the Cerberus Paradox Cup (i.e. without any party members), so be prudent about his attacks. Using Final Form is recommended - use it to the best of your ability as Sora can use Drives alone.
The Cerberus and Cerberus Paradox Cups are timed battles, so one should be wary of the time constraint. Cerberus is fought alone, although Drives are available to use. Sora can use Valor Form for its quick hits, or play it safe and shoot magic bullets at Cerberus with Wisdom Form. Master Form is the most recommended form though, as all of the abilities Master Form has equipped will help Sora defeat Cerberus. Final Form is the best option (if available). Every single movement is an attack in itself, and this should buy time to keep on mashing {{Button|x}}. Do not compromise unless one has managed to take all the lesser enemies out within seconds.

===''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''===
==Trivia==
Cerberus in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'' is quite a formidable opponent. His attacks deal good amount of damage, and he can attack Data-Sora, Hercules, and Cloud at the same time. Good timing of combos and blocking is crucial, and command decks should be filled by Cure commands so Data-Sora can quickly heal the party if the situation gets worse.
*Cerberus is originally a three headed dog that [[Hercules]] had to battle in his trials in Greek Mythology.
*Strangely all the bosses in [[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]] are taken from the [[Kingdom Hearts]] story line. Yet, Cerberus is replaced by [[Hades]] who was an optional boss.
*Cerberus has a tournament named after him.


Using attack commands is not recommended as they deal insignificant amount of damage to Cerberus, so use normal attack combos. If having difficulty, Regen License is particularly useful, and Auto-Life License can be given to Data-Sora to make sure the battle doesn't end soon due to Data-Sora's defeat.

==Origin==
Cerberus originally appears in Roman and Greek mythology. He is depicted as a multi-headed dog (usually three heads) and acts as a gatekeeper of the Underworld, preventing dead souls that has crossed the river Styx from escaping. In the myths, he is a sibling to Chimaera and the [[Hydra]]. His capture was the objective of [[Hercules]]'s twelfth and final labor.


In Disney's 1997 animated movie ''Hercules'', Cerberus guards the entrance to the Underworld. Hercules briefly tames him when he travels to the Underworld to confront Hades.
