Trigon was a power- house who looked upon his mortal opponents as insects. He was overwhelming in combat, using his powers to rid himself of any opposition and proclaiming his superiority or glory. Trigon had devastating force beams from his eyes and hordes of demons under his command. Trigon frequently acted through agents such as Psimon of the Fearsome Five or the transformed Raven. Trigon was a ruthless tyrant who had nothing but contempt for life. He sought to conquer all, including his daughter Raven, whom he felt belonged to him.

HISTORY: Trigon was an other-dimensional demon, the result of the mating of a female member of a mystic sect and their god. Dark energies that floated through the dimensions were the expunged evil natures of Azarath. Trigon became the personification of these dreadfully evil energies.
At birth, Trigon slew all around him, and, at age six, he destroyed his an entire planet. When he reached thirty, Trigon had established himself as absolute ruler of the millions of worlds within his dimension. Trigon's hunger for power was still not sated, so he turned his four eyes to other dimensions.
Trigon first came to Earth with the intention of fathering a child. He appeared to a cult member named Arella in the guise of a handsome man, and sired a child named Raven. The child was raised in Azarath.
Trigon wanted his daughter to rule by his side, and after he managed to breach the dimensional barriers, Raven agreed to this as long as he permanently returned to his home dimension. When Raven arrived, she realized that Trigon had no intention of keeping his word. Arella and the Teen Titans fought the demon and banished him to the Nether-Verse. His "wife" Arella agreed to serve as guardian of the dimensional gate so that Trigon could not return.
Despite Trigon's banishment, Raven began to physically change as Trigon's evil worked within her. Trigon absorbed the life-forces of the billions of souls in his dimension in order to breach the doorway, which he did. Trigon had his forces destroy Azarath.
Reunited with his now-evil daughter, the pair transformed Earth into Hell until the New Teen Titans, with Lilith back in their midst, killed the soulless body of Raven. This so angered Trigon that he began to siphon souls in order to return to his home dimension. The spirit of Azar and all of Azarath, however, still dwelled in Raven's rings. Azar used the now-soulless body of Raven to focus all of Azarath's pure light into Trigon, destroying him.
Unknown to the Titans, however, the souls of Azarath (now tainted by Trigon) needed a vessel to survive. They sought Raven, but she was protected by her soul self. The souls of Azarath were aware of Jericho, and his powers made it easier for the souls to enter him. The souls of Azarath resided in Jericho, but were still quite weak. They would lay dormant, and build up strength as time passed.
Jericho took over the criminal society known as the Wildebeests and began a series of experiments to create alternate bodies. When these experiments failed the Wildebeests then went after the other members of the New Titans, hoping that their super-powered bodies would prove more receptive to possession from the Azarathian force.
A battle in the remains of Azarath concluded with the destruction of the Wildebeest society and the death of Jericho himself. But the Azarathians were still defeated. In a final effort to end this threat forever, Raven, former Phantasm Danny Chase, and Raven's mother, Arella, attacked the Azarathian energy. Their own energies combined with the force from Azarath and drove away the evil. Raven is transformed utterly and disappears (at this point, she is presumed dead).
Soon after, an evil version of Raven emerged; Her evil consciousness survived, and she found a mortal vessel to house her form. Raven was intent on planting the seeds of Trigon's unborn children into new vessels. Evil Raven continued her reign of terror; She planted ‘Trigon seeds' in Supergirl, Changeling, Magenta, Deathwing, and Thunder and Lightning. Eventually, Raven and her demon allies came into conflict with the Titans. The Titans were able to destroy evil Raven utterly, and restore good Raven into a new spiritual golden body.
