Antichrist
Ultimate prophesied villain
The Antichrist is a figure in Christian eschatology who will oppose Christ and deceive humanity before the Second Coming.
Various interpretations identify the Antichrist as a specific future person, a symbolic representation of evil, or historical figures—popes, emperors, and political leaders have all been accused of being the Antichrist.
Many believed the Antichrist would arise in their generation. (Lowercase antichrist is any opponent of Christ.)
