Who is the one in animorphs

Or that Rachel died. Or that Jake and Cassie broke up. Or that Tobias turned away from humanity completely. I was more or less okay with all those things. I liked that the aftermath of the war was palpable through the different ways the characters dealt with what had happened.

It was painful but it was But what I have a serious problem with, is the whole "The One" business and the open ending. A completely new and unknown villain and a sucicidal mission?

He found that only by absorbing special, important people, like Aximili , could he add anything to himself, so he decided to increase his power the old fasion way, by conquest. When he found the Kelbrid , he saw them as an excellent subject race.

He used his advanced powers and technology to make them serve him. The Kelbrid are individuals, but they are all linked telepathicly, a hive mind. The One found that when he sent them into battle, their violent, negative emotions, and even fear, fed him.

It fed him as though that group of battleing Kelbrid was one being, because of the telepathic link. It was not much, but it added up.

The emotional energy feeds on has been building up slowly over time. This is one of the reasons he desires conflict.
