Gomorrah appears briefly in Chapter XIII at the climax of the battle against Beloved. Gomorrah will attempt to obstruct Bayonetta's journey through the area twice and must be dodged to avoid incoming damage. Gomorrah reappears in Chapter XII where Bayonetta is running through Inferno on Diomedes to get to Loki. As the long battle comes to a conclusion, Bayonetta summons Labolas and uses it to smash Gomorrah into the ground, both demons vanish. A winged Bayonetta takes to the skies to fight Gomorrah, scaling up the side of the skyscraper as the demon attempts to savagely lunge at the witch. Gomorrah's strike knocks Jeanne's soul from her body and she is pulled down into Inferno. Before it is able to harm its former master, Jeanne dives into the path of the attack and knocks Bayonetta away. However, the portal manifesting Gomorrah's head fails to close and the demon seizes the chance to escape and attack Bayonetta. Gomorrah returns during an angel attack in a city, in which Bayonetta summons it to finish off a Belief in a similar fashion to Beloved. However, the deity quickly forms a blade of energy and pierces Gomorrah's head, mirroring its defeat at the hands of Balder from the game. It doesn't appear again until the climax of the film where Bayonetta attempts to summon it to combat Jubileus. In the anime adaptation, Gomorrah appears near the beginning of the film where it destroys a Beloved with its jaws like in the original game. He proceeds to exit the orb and smash Gomorrah's mouth shut on it, finishing off the wounded demon by snapping its neck. Unfortunately, Balder is able to counter Gomorrah's assault by jamming its jaws open with a sphere of energy. Gomorrah also appears when it is summoned during Bayonetta's battle with Father Balder. It appears particularly during Climax Attacks against Beloved, proceeding to bite down furiously on the angel before crushing it to pieces between its mighty jaws. Gomorrah is one of Bayonetta's more common summons in the first game. Despite having multiple dragon-like features, Gomorrah seems to lack wings of any kind. Unlike classic dragon designs, Gomorrah possesses six legs. Though it is primarily black in color, it also has red and purple accents about its body. In both Bayonetta 2 & 3, Gomorrah's entire body can be seen as a massive black dragon-like beast, easily over one hundred feet in length from nose to tail. This is actually the demon's true head with the dragon features only acting as a dummy. Upon Gomorrah's head is a strange crown-like ornament with what looks like a face set into the front of it. It has long serrated horns on its head, back, and down the sides of its body all the way to the end of its tail with a thick heavy chitinous hide that layers across its body similar to segmented plates of armor. Gomorrah's dragon head has four glowing dots on either side that appear like eyes, and its mouth is lined with dozens of fangs that frame a twisted forked tongue. In the first Bayonetta, only Gomorrah's head and neck are seen due to it only being partially summoned through the portals. This Beast Tyrant was said to rule over all of the Gomorrah in Johnson Forest, and could make all of the demons in the forest bow by simply raising its head, but not even the residents of Inferno have managed to see it and live to tell the tale. This form resembles the legendary "Beast Tyrant", spoken of in forbidden tomes, a mountainous creature rumoured to live deep within the Johnson Forest of Inferno. Gomorrah's completely uninhibited form, pushed to the limits of its power by Bayonetta during the "Deadly Sin" ritual.
