Hades was approached by the First Doctor on Katarina's behalf. Hades refused to overrule his judges' verdict that Katarina was neither good nor evil. However, his wife, Persephone, convinced him that Katarina deserved to enter the Elysian Fields. (PROSE: Katarina in the Underworld)

Appearance
When the First Doctor and Katarina met Hades in the Underworld, he appeared as a slight, bearded man with flowing auburn hair. He was naked apart from a length of white cloth tied around his waist, and carried a battered helmet that could make him invisible. When angered, he grew much taller, and was surrounded by a fiery aura. (PROSE: Katarina in the Underworld)
