Characteristics
Atlas is a giant orange cyclops, wearing a blue toga and wielding a massive club. He is the first miniboss encountered in the Hall of Hargon, and is not particularly difficult as such. Like his lesser brethren, he relies on brutal physical hits to destroy his enemies. Atlas is a true giant amongst giants, towering over his pallet-swaps and regularly creating lakes just by traipsing about.

A humongous hulk who's as big as a house. Ponds appearing in towns and villages are dully dubbed "Atlas' footprints". A giant thought to be older than time itself. Some say that he lived in the palace of an almighty realm before being sealed away.

Defeating Atlas using the Zam spell is the objective of Quest #117.

In this game, his speech before the battle is hinted that he is one of the ten monsters that were created by Zenus remains, rather than a member of the Unholy Trinity (due to Corvus' attack): in fact he says "WHY YOU TURN INTO TREE!?", doubtlessly referring to Celestria's transformation into a tree.
The real Atlas reappears in the game as the first coin boss, as well as the Strong Nelgel boss fight, being summoned with Pazuzu and Belial. While he once again does desperate attacks, he can do a Seismic Shock. In addition, his Origin forme can be fought during the Breaking World sidestory.
An Atlas appears as a boss in Infern Isle near the end of the game.

Atlas is the ultimate antagonist of Chapter 3. He holds dominion of the island of Moonbrooke and is the top authority of the portion of the Children of Hargon on the island. He enjoys toying with the Builder and the people of Moonbrooke by waiting for them to become hopeful-by rebuilding Moonbrooke castle-before attacking. He is defeated by a massive canon built by the Builder with the help of the King of Moonbrooke.
Additionally, a shadow fiend manifestation of Atlas appears in Hargon's Castle, reflecting his appearance in Dragon Quest II in the same location. Though he simply dissipates without putting up much of a fight. Of Hargon's top three, Atlas is the only one to appear in the story proper, Belial's and Pazuzu's shadow fiend vestiges are their only appearances in Dragon Quest Builders 2.
