Priest Mahado is a character in the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga. This is the original depiction of Mahado, known as Mahad in the English anime. Mahado was a sorcerer and High Priest, tasked with guarding the royal tombs, while serving Pharaoh Akhenamkhanen and later Pharaoh Atem. He invested a deal of his magical abilities suppressing the evil powers of his Millennium Item, the Millennium Ring, making himself appear weaker. His guilt over past failures led to him facing Bakura, King of Thieves, alone with his powers unrestrained. During the battle, he gave his life to fuse his ba, with his ka, the Magus of Illusion. As a ka, he continued to serve Atem in his battles.
