- "Wave reaches the Pinnacle, and escape none can. Tarvos still remains with more cruelty to punish and destroy."
- — Epitaph of Twilight —
Tarvos (タルヴォス, Taruvosu) is the 7th Phase of the Cursed Wave and was referred to as "The Avenger".
History
Epitaph of Twilight
In the Epitaph of Twilight, Tarvos stands ready to cruelly and mercilessly strike down anyone who manages to escape from the Wave, although it seems that no one can.
.hack//Games
In an attempt to contain the Cursed Wave, the hacker Helba created a powerful vaccine program designed to trap part of the Wave in a specific location. Each member of the .hackers was given part of the vaccine and instructed to create a barrier around the Wave in a formation dubbed "Operation Orca". Her program worked, sealing Tarvos in the field Ω Cruel Vindictive Scars. Kite quickly formed a battle party and confronted the Phase, defeating it after a lengthy battle.
.hack//Another Birth
Tarvos is fought by the team of Kite, BlackRose, and Mistral. BlackRose immediately begins her charge and realizes that it has Physical Tolerance. The party is severely damaged by Tarvos's Malice Light attack, which it almost immediately follows up with a Cursed Death Play against BlackRose, killing her instantly. The party keeps their distance and attack with magic before it submerges into a pool of its own bloody tears and surfaces with an ambush on Mistral. Whenever it submerges and surfaces, its Tolerance shifts, so the party changes tactics accordingly until its protection is finally broken by Mistral. After Kite Data Drains Tarvos the battle becomes much easier, and the party damages it until it crumbles to dust.
.hack//XXXX
