'''Hermos''' is a character in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' anime. He is a legendary knight from [[Atlantis]], who aided [[Ironheart]] in the Battle of Atlantis.

==Design==
Hermos, like other legendary knights, is named after Plato's work. Hermos is named after [[wikipedia:Hermocrates|Hermocrates]] from Plato's dialogues ''[[wikipedia:Timaeus (dialogue)|Timaeus]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:Critias (dialogue)|Critias]]''.

In his human form, Hermos wears red armor. Like the other knights he bears a similar facial expression to his chosen duelist, [[Joey Wheeler]].

His red color scheme follows him into his dragon form.

Hermos has a ''[[Duel Monsters]]'' card form. The card, "[[Claw of Hermos]]", along with its counterparts "[[Eye of Timaeus|Eye of Timaeus]]" and "[[Fang of Critias]]" are unlike other cards. They have their own set of rules and are color coded blue. Although [[Monster Card]]s, the Dragons are played similar to if they were [[Spell Card]]s and can combine with other cards. Hermos can combine with monsters to form [[Equip Spell Card]]s. It has been shown to combine with five such cards; "[[Big Bang Blow (anime)|Big Bang Blow]]", "[[Queen's Knight (anime)|Queen's Knight]]", "[[Red-Eyes B. Dragon (anime)|Red-Eyes Black Dragon]]", "[[Rocket Warrior (anime)|Rocket Warrior]]" and "[[Time Wizard (anime)|Time Wizard]]" to form "[[Big Bang Dragon Blow]]", "[[Goddess Bow (anime)|Goddess Bow]]", "[[Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword (anime)|Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword]]", "[[Rocket Hermos Cannon (anime)|Rocket Hermos Cannon]]" and "[[Time Magic Hammer (anime)|Time Magic Hammer]]".

==Biography==
===Ancient Atlantis===
Hermos and the other legendary knights, [[Timaeus]] and [[Critias]] resided in the Spirit's World, until [[Atlantis]] became corrupt by the [[Orichalcos]]. [[Ironheart]] Summoned them to the human world, to help him defeat [[Dartz]], who was trying to wipe out the population of Atlantis and start fresh. However Dartz weakened the knights by turning them into dragons.

The [[Legendary Dragon]]s, fought alongside rebels from Atlantis and more Duel Spirits against Dartz, [[Orichalcos Soldier]]s and [[The Great Leviathan]].

The battle ended with neither side victorious and Atlantis sunk to the bottom of the sea. The Dragons were sealed in crystal prisons, until they would be needed again.

===Present time===
[[File:Joey acquires Hermos.png|thumb|left|Joey acquires Hermos.]]

[[Joey Wheeler]] was chosen as a Legendary Duelist to wield Hermos. During a Duel with [[Mai Valentine]], he and Yugi were subconsciously taken to the Duel Monsters Spirit World, where they saw Hermos trapped in his prison. By removing a sword Joey set Hermos free and got the card "[[Claw of Hermos]]", so that he may Summon "Hermos" while playing ''[[Duel Monsters]]''.

As a card, Hermos had the ability to combine itself with monster to create [[Equip Spell Card]]s. Joey used it to form "[[Time Magic Hammer (anime)|Time Magic Hammer]]" in his Duel against Mai. He also used it against Rex to create "[[Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword (anime)|Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword]]", against Valon to create "[[Rocket Hermos Cannon (anime)|Rocket Hermos Cannon]]" and "[[Big Bang Dragon Blow]]" and in his second Duel against Mai to create "Red-Eyes Black Dragon Sword" again.

After Joey lost to Mai, Mai had a change of heart stormed off to face Dartz taking the "Hermos" card with her. However she was confronted by [[Rafael]], who defeated her and took the card. When Yugi arrived, Rafael gave him the card, before they dueled. Yugi used it in the Duel to create "[[Goddess Bow (anime)|Goddess Bow]]".

When Yugi and Kaiba faces Dartz, Yugi used "[[Legend of Heart (anime)|Legend of Heart]]" to change the dragons back to their true forms. Together with [[Timaeus]] and [[Critias]], Yugi was able to defeat Dartz's "[[Divine Serpent Geh]]" and win the Duel.

However The Great Leviathan, was Summoned again. Hermos took part in the battle against it, this time his side emerged victorious. He, Timaeus, Critias and [[Dark Magician Girl (character)|Dark Magician Girl]] appeared on the beach to thank Yugi before returning to the spirit world.
