His clothing is that of a warrior. He also wears a sun visor over his left eye socket. The insignia on it is similar to that of Nora's masks.

Personality

Rabō appears to be a cautious and careful character. He carefully gauges an enemy's strength and abilities before he will personally engage in combat.

He is a God of Calamity, and it is known that he used to take up jobs of killing phantoms, humans and even other gods. He has awoken to fill his original position, by taking up murder requests. He also used to work with Yato to kill.

Abilities

Teleportation: Like most gods, he is able to teleport from different places in order to complete his objectives quicker. He is however, able to teleport much quicker than Yato.

Trivia
