“ | Excellent work, Buff Frog. I knew they couldn't hide that royal brat from me for long. Soon, the wand will be mine. And then the universe. And then...! Actually, the universe should do it. I'm coming for you, Princess Butterfly! | „ |
~ Ludo after Buff Frog revealed to him that Star is on Earth now |

“ | I don't know what I want! I've never done this before! You know what my dad taught me about making my way in the world? Nothing! Zip! I was one egg out of fifty! Everything I've learned, I had to learn dirty! But for once in my life, I'd like... some guidance. | „ |
~ Ludo asking Glossaryck for help |

“ | Didn't you hear the song? Ohhh. I defeated him. I Levitato'd him. And now I'm king. | „ |
~ Ludo telling Star where is her dad |
“ | You're right. You're right, I am being controlled. Controlled by my lust for power! | „ |
~ Ludo replying to Star's statement that he is being controlled |

“ | Dennis, you just did! Did you see that dunk? You can jump higher than they could ever reach. You need to go find your own adventures. | „ |
~ Ludo to Dennis' statement that he can't stand up to their parents alone |
“ | What am I doing with my life? Is that wand the only thing that I care for? | „ |
~ Ludo right after a failed attempt to steal Princess Quasar's bell |
Summary[]
Ludo Avarius is the main antagonist of the first half of Star vs. the Forces of Evil. In Season 1, he uses an army of monsters in order to steal Star's wand and take over the universe. Throughout Season 2, however, he has his own wand and new "animal" followers. Toward the end of season 2, his body is possessed by Toffee.
At the beginning of Season 3, Ludo discovers that his wand has become his right hand[1]. Using this, he briefly takes over the Butterfly Kingdom, but ultimately decides to go on a soul-searching journey after Toffee's final defeat. After the old Castle Avarius is rebuilt, he lives there with his brother Dennis[2].
