Chakravartin was the Golden Spider, the mysterious ruler of Naraka, and the God of Mantra. He accompanied Asura after his fall, later revealed to be part of his plan for choosing a new ruler of Gaia.

He appears in several forms, changing his personality to suit each shape. As the God of Mantra, he is a calm, all-seeing and wise individual, yet as the Golden Spider, he became a trickster, teasing Asura for his motivations for the reasons behind his answer. In the same breath, Chakravartin revealed himself to be ruthless, not hesitating to kill in order to protect those under his wing.

In the final battle of the game, he erupts as the main villain and repeatedly draws on a Trek inspiration to wear Asura down. Every time that Asura attacks or attempts to defend, Chakravartin tells him that 'Resistance is Futile'. Confirmed to be inspired by the Borg, this unstoppable God is every bit as menacing as his cybernetic counterparts.
