Ra's al Ghul src

Ra's al Ghul is the leader of the eco-terrorist cult known as the League of Shadows and the frontman of the rock band of the same name.

Background

Ra's al Ghul, literally translated from Arabic as Head of the Demon, is an international, immortal eco-terrorist. Believing that humanity is a blight on the planet, his extremist environmentalism has led him to seek the destruction of modern society. Born centuries ago, he has sustained his life through usage of restorative Lazarus Pits. These centuries of experience have made him an incredible tactical expert and physical combatant, allowing him to establish the League of Shadows. He then move to Metropolis and own the place called Lazarus Pit (named after the pit) and made a place for rockers.

League of Shadows

Ra's tasks Ubu to bring Kara Danvers to him. When he did, he ends meeting her and Karen Beecher, which amazed Kara. he told Kara and Karen about him and his "Shadow Puppets" had spread to the entire world for a "Noble Cause" which questions Karen and said is for Rock and Roll. Ra's pleads to Kara that she can be the ultimate shadow puppet and said that he met someone "very cool" which Kara excited. He then gives Kara the "Demon's Fang", a red, glowing guitar pick and said to Kara to "enjoy the show" and walks off laughing quietly. Later, on stage, Ra's begins to play his song with his band called "We Really Mean It" which confuses Karen with the lyrics he says. When the music stops, Ra's begins to announce the song for Kara Danvers and sings the song called "When You're Mine", whose lyrics say the Demon's Fang will make the listener obey Ra's. When the song completely hypnotizes Kara, he proceeds to enact his plan.

He then attends the Up Past 8 Concert and reveals to Ubu and the League about his plan to wipeout humanity and all of its evil in the world and begin anew. He told his minions that their shadow puppet is ready and that tonight, they shall rid the planet of mankind's atrocities, and will start with the most obscene example of human weakness: "Bad music!", Which Shock Bumblebee. He then Reveals to his minions that he is prepared to use the Ultimate Weapon and that it can be controlled with "a stone from outer space." When stage lights turn on, Ra's begins to unleash the red kryptonite's power on Supergirl and commands her to destroy the Up Past 8. The Super Hero Girls interfere and notice that the boys on stage are Barry, Hal, and Garth, dressed in the white Up Past 8 clothes, while Karen ties up the three actual band members backstage in their undergarments. The boys sing "Let Me Save You With My Love" while Kara attacks them repeatedly, which angers Ra's and begins to attack them with full might. The Girls and the boys hug Supergirl while singing about her snapping out of Ra's influence. Supergirl ends up break free out of Ra's control which causes the crystal to break. He ends up retreating with his minions dancing to the beat of the song.
