Name: Rigel

Alias: the one who shakes the earth, the angel of earthquakes, dumb turtle beast (what guts call him)

Appearance: Rigel appears as a glyptodon with the head of a human and human arms as front legs, his shell is black with screaming faces that adorned it. Just like Arcturus, he has crimson red skin and fur, and his eyes are yellow with vertical slit shaped pupils. He doesn't have lips thus exposing his front teeth (he communicates with telepathy), his tail is spiked and club like (like a tail of a glyptodon).

Backstory: there's no record of history of what Rigel was like before he became a god hand member. It's due to the fact that he exists since prehistoric times, specifically, during the ice age. It's unknown whether or not he was a hunter prior, but some say that he was once an early human struggling to survive in the ice age. He belonged to the first iteration of the god hand since prehistoric times to cause destruction as per orders from the idea of evil (If you considered it canon), however, many researchers found remnants of what appears to be a prehistoric village with a brand of sacrifice on both the ground and human skeletal remains. Despite the future iterations of the god hand, he was lucky to still exist along with Arcturus and the rest of the prehistoric god hand members (it's presumed that the idea of evil kept the prehistoric god hand members as vanguard/bodyguards to it while they serve as mentors to future iterations). The holy see canonized him as the angel of earthquakes because he can cause earthquakes as well as controlling the earth (soil and rocks).

Personality: he's usually quiet but given the chance, he speaks loudly and dramatic (he's obviously a prehistoric version of conrad). It is shown that he is brash and hot blooded, yet sometimes he speaks in a nonchalant demeanor. Like other god hand members, he genuinely looks down on humans for being nothing but puppets of causality. He's content with staying at the abyss along with his prehistoric brethren, but he sometimes manifest in the physical realm to cause mayhem for his amusement. He views skull knight as a worthy opponent when it comes to fighting him, he also shows the same sentiment with guts whenever he fights the black swordsman. He is not exactly bright compared to the members of the god hand, but he is crafty when it comes to fighting and causing mayhem.

Powers:

Corporealization- like all god hand members, he can use materials to construct a physical form. He mainly uses the dirt and/or stone as a vessel.

Causal awareness- he can predict anything from the flow of causality as long as he does anything to make one event happen, but he's not omniscient for he doesn't know everything.

Earth powers- he uses the power of earth to construct things from the soil or stone, he can stomp his feet or slamming his tail to cause an earthquake.

Defensive shell- it's not exactly a power, more like an ability. It's where he uses his shell to create a barrier.

Voice: if he's in the anime, I can imagine his voice being deep and sinister with a reverb (just like the mattress demon from courage the cowardly dog where it possessed Muriel).

Trivia: his name, Rigel, is actually named after a red giant star from the Orion constellation to go with the god hand members sci fi sounding names. Although I'm thinking the rest of the prehistoric god hand members are also named after stars.
