Encantadia Wiki


Bathalang Emre is one of the main characters from the Philippine fantasy series Encantadia produced by GMA Network.

2005 - 2006[]


Emre, Arde and Ether were originally angels who decided to remain neutral during the war between the good and evil. The victors were not impressed with their neutrality, and they were expelled from Heaven. They settled in an unnamed land which they claimed as their own; and they named it Encantadia.

2016[]

Personality[]

Evades described Emre as a playful bathala. He sometimes disguises himself to test Encantados/Encantadas.

Emre chooses to intervene in a subtle manner because he believes that his followers should develop qualities like patience, faith, and hope, which will ultimately make them stronger. Imaw suggests that it is these values that attract a large number of worshippers to Emre, despite the fact that he no longer possesses his divine abilities. He loves and admires Cassiopeia's bravery because she is willing to sacrifice her life to protect Encantadia from the evil gods.

Story[]

Creation of Encantadia & Cursing Arde & Ether[]

Emre, Arde, Ether, Keros, and Haliya saw how savage and dependent humans are, so Emre, alongside his fellow Bathalas, created the realm of Encantadia. He was worshipped by many Encantados, which made Arde and Ether jealous. The two planned to kill Emre. However, Emre saw through their plan. Emre was furious, he cursed the two changing their appearances. He turned Arde into a dragon and Ether into a serpent. Then tasked Arde to be guardian of Balaak and Ether was left alone.

After Ether lurking Encantadia, some Encantados began to fear Bathaluman and started worshiping Ether and rebuilt the first civilization in Encantadia called Etheria. Avria, the leader of four tribes of Etheria one of the characters in the story, wants to conquer the four kingdoms. To support those who worship Emre, the god of Encantadia, he gives a powerful gift that imbues the five elemental natures: fire, air, soul, water, and earth, which leads to Etheria's destruction. However, this gift is entrusted only to Cassiopeia, unlike in the 2005 series. Cassiopeia plays an important role in the story. At some point, she splits the Mother Gem, which may have seemed like a good decision. However, Emre disapproves of her actions and curses her to be immortal. This curse can only be lifted if the shards of the gem are completed. In the later part of the story, after Ether's leaving on Encantadia, Cassiopeia's curse is lifted to aid the Diwatas. However, Emre warns Cassiopeia that this task will be challenging. He also advises Encantadia to be prepared for Bathaluman's return.

Powers and Abilities []

Emre is very powerful since he is the one alongside the four other deities: Haliya, Keros, Arde and Ether, who created Encantadia and all who lives in it.

  • Teleportation / Ivictus/Invisibility: He is able to teleport himself or an object from one place to another even if that place is the World of Mortals. The way he appears when using her "teleportation" ability is like a golden light surrounded by celestial circles descending from the heavens.
  • Energy Manipulation: Emre can create and fire powerful bolts or beam of pure energy to his enemies, for example he used this when he fought against Ether. The appearance of her energy is golden light smoke that so much powerful that even Ether can't withstand.
  • Skilled Combatant: Like other gods, Emre is also capable and skilled when it comes to weapon and close hand-to-hand combat. It was shown a few times that he once bested the other bathalas in combat. In the legend, it is said that Emre was able to defeat Arde and Ether when they tried to kill him and take his throne. Second and third one is when he faced Ether in two seperate occassions, still bested the banished godess.
  • Tactical Intellect: He possesses knowledge of all of Bathala's weaknesses, such as Ether's vulnerability, which lies solely in love affairs on Arde. He firmly believes that powers and abilities are not the only means to combat these malevolent gods; instead, he views these weaknesses as his advantages. Secondly, knowing Arde's black magic.
  • Size manipulation: Emre can change his physical appearance into a giant then can resume to his original size at will.
  • Soul Destruction: He has the power to destroy any soul or Ivtre because he is a divine being and more powerful.
  • Holgoraphic/Illusion Manipulation: Emre can reveal himself to anyone without having to be there physically. He can conjures a holographic image of himself to show his presence.
  • Appearance transformation: Emre has the power to change his appearance existent or non existent, whoever that person is even if that person is a fellow bathala. To test Lira, he disguised himself as a woodsman who has travelled for a long time. He also disguised as Bathalumang Ether to test Lira's courage if she would cower in fear upon facing the Bathaluman.
  • Creation: Emre has the power to create anything. He can also create something that grants power to the denizens of Encantadia an example would be, he created the Inang Brilyante in order to preserve the balance in Encantadia and a powerful sword he created for Mira. It is can be assumed that he can create more gems similar to the Violet Gem, which was created specifically for Lira. It is uncertain whether he possesses the gem for a long period of time or just for the purpose of testing Lira. He even gave Lira a drink to help to remember the Lira's memories on her mother and father because the rules set by the gods state that they cannot revert curses placed by other gods.

Trivia[]

  • Zoren Legaspi, the actor who currently portrays Emre in encantado form (now in bathala form with face shown), also portrayed the role of the Mulawin Bagwis, the father of Alwina in Encantadia (2005-2006).
  • According to the legend, Emre was able to defeat the two bathalas, Arde and Ether, in a duel. He proved to be more powerful than them and cursed them for their betrayal. In Episode 146, there was another clash between Emre and the two bathalas. Initially, Ether wounded Emre, but then Emre healed and overpowered both Arde and Ether. Due to the combined powers of Ether, Arde, and Keros, Emre was expelled from Devas.
  • Raymond Bagatsing, is not the first actor that played the role of Emre in Encantadia (2005-2006 Series) Book 1. It was Miguel Faustmann (credited as Miguel Faustman) who first portrayed Emre in Book 1.
  • Statues of Emre are situated in places like Lireo's Hall of Faiths and Cassiopeia's island, the statues act as a medium for the diwatas to pray and talk to Emre for guidance.
