Name: Cor Caroli

Alias: the one that controls the shadows, the angel of shadow, the dark one (What skull knight and guts refer him as).

Appearnace: (I don't have a picture of him) Cor Caroli appears as a humanoid with red fur, has a face of a wooly mammoth, has crab like pincers for hands, has four legs that looked skeletal and has no feet, just sharp ends of the legs. He has solid black eyes and a skeletal spine.

Backstory: compared to the other prehistoric god hand members back Stories that is a mystery, Cor Caroli' backstory is nothing more than a fairy tale about an ancient city that soon was destroyed by angels sent by God (the holy see compares it to how Gaiserics empire fell). Before he became the final member of the prehistoric god hand, Cor Caroli was once a normal man native to a prehistoric city (kind of like catal hoyuk) that had witnessed the worst the world has to offer, he was originally a hunter that professed the sins of the city to god. The city itself view him as an outcast, but he prayed to god to repent the city to cleanse it from it's sins. One day, it is said that four angels (Arcturus, Rigel, Vega, and Polarus) has answered his prayers and told him that he shall become one of them to bring about an age of equality. With nothing left to lose, he accepts the offer and the entire city was soon destroyed in one night. The holy see views some of the ruins as a sacred site and compared the whole story to that of how the sage (Who soon became void) professed the sins of Gaiseric and the angel answered the prayers in order to destroy the capital.

Personality: as the fifth member of the prehistoric god hand, he is rather curious about human nature. However, he also views humans as nothing but worms compared to him and his kin. When he was human, he originally had a well intentioned goal to bring equality to the world (he did achieved it, but not in the way he wanted). He doesn't see guts nor skull knight as a threat due to his power over shadows, yet he isn't above at backing out of the fight. However, he's rather cold and near emotionless, more or less calculating.

Powers:

Corporealization- like all god hand members, he can create a physical vessel from shadows to act as a medium.

Causal awareness- like all god hand members, he can predict anything from the flow of causality as long as he can make one event happen no matter what, but he isn't omniscient for there are things he doesn't know nor does he predict everything.

Shadow manipulation: he has the power to control and manipulate shadows into different shapes and forms as he wants, he can also weaponized shadows in combat as well as to defend himself. He can create shadow doppelgangers from someone's shadow to fight in his stead, but he can't do those things if he's literally in darkness and thus need light to make shadow (pretty much like pride from fullmetal alchemist).

Voice: if he's in the anime, then I can imagine him sounding like cad bane from star wars the clone wars.

Trivia: Cor Caroli is named after a star in the canis constellation, his powers is pretty much like how pride (from fullmetal alchemist) uses his shadow (presumably his true form) to attack and defend and is helpless whenever he's in an area that is dark.
