Summary
Gabriel Agreste is Adrien's father and a famous fashion designer, creating and owning the brand ''Gabriel. ''With the Moth Miraculous, when inhabited by Nooroo, he transforms into Hawk Moth (or Papillion in French). He wants Ladybug's and Cat Noir's Miraculouses for himself to obtain absolute power, and to achieve his unknown goals, he creates and controls the Akumas; white butterflies infected with evil who can transform normal people into supervillains.

Hawk Moth is cold, cunning, and determined. His goal is to claim the Ladybug and Cat Miraculous to gain their absolute power that he needs to achieve his dearest secret wish, not caring if he causes people to harm in the process. His akumatized villains are his most powerful known weapon, and he chooses his victims carefully and cleverly, usually people who are emotionally at their weakest, giving them ideas if they're struggling to think up of one. He is a great deceiver, persuading people that he cares about their problems and gives them powers to help solve them when in reality, he does it because he wants them to retrieve the Miraculouses for him. If things aren't going his way, he easily loses his patience, threatening harm to Ladybug, Cat Noir, and even to the villains he creates. After a villain's defeat, Hawk Moth determinedly vows revenge and, while stopping for a while afterward, doesn't wait too long to try again with his Akumas.

In "The Collector", to avoid suspicion of being Hawk Moth, he Akumatizes himself into the Collector, a supervillain who has the power to imprison any person or object within a magical book.

In the Season 2 finale, Hawk Moth creates a fatal plan during "The Heroes Day" and with the help of Catalyst, he empowers himself into Scarlet Moth, a form that lets Hawk Moth to send as many Akumas as he wishes at the same time in order to create an army of akumatized villains.

In Season 4, Hawk Moth unites both the powers of the butterfly and the peacock Miraculouses, now becoming known as Shadow Moth.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Hide/Show
 * -|Hawk Moth =

A form bestowed to him by his akumatized villain Catalyst, Hawk Moth can turn into Scarlet Moth, turning red, as his powers are upgraded. In this form, Hawk Moth has no limit to how many Akuma's he can send out, merely giving a tap of his wand, as they seek out negative emotions and then infect whoever they touch into doing Hawk Moth's bidding. They seem to have less free will than that of their original Akumatisations, but seem to keep their powers. The Scarlet Akumas are also able to transform their victims without their consent, even though they still need negative emotions to possess their targets.


 * -|The Collector=Notebook: The Collector can trap objects and people in the form of drawings inside his notebook. He throws the notebook like a boomerang, and while the notebook can go very far distances, once it captures something or someone by hitting them, it returns to him wherever he is. He can also utilize the notebook as a shield against projectiles, opening the book, either holding it sturdily or waving it around, so it traps the object being thrown towards him. Anything it passes through is trapped no matter how big it is. He has even shown to be able to trap the majority of Paris' main sights and building, and Chat Noir's staff (which has been stated to have Infinite length determined by willpower, if compared to Ladybugs Yo-yo
