   the God Hand are a group of five powerful and enigmatic beings. They are not typical gods, but rather transcendent entities. The God Hand's purpose is to shape the course of fate and causality in the world, often manipulating events for their own inscrutable goals. They are responsible for the creation of apostles and other supernatural occurrences. They reign over apostles as masters, and are responsible for facilitating the demonic reincarnation of behelit bearers during sacrificial ceremonies. Each member of the God Hand was once human and is a previous owner of the Behelit, which distinguished them as individuals destined to be reborn as the demon sovereigns they serve as. In 216 year increments, they each attained their proper forms during the festival known as the Eclipse. Each member of the God Hand possesses specific reality-altering abilities, including spatial, physical, and metaphysical manipulation. Though they are cognizant of causality's flow and have unparalleled foresight for most possibilities, they are not omniscient, and thus cannot anticipate everything.

    Apostles are powerful and malevolent beings. They were once ordinary humans but made a dark pact with the God Hand. In exchange for sacrifices to the God Hand, apostles are granted immense power and are transformed into grotesque, monstrous forms. These forms vary widely and are often unique to each apostle. Conversely, the features of an apostle's true form are often reflected in their human form. They become servants of the God Hand and are tasked with carrying out acts of cruelty and destruction. All apostles have powerful regenerative abilities. When an apostle is killed, their spirit is dragged into the Abyss, and their physical body reverts back to its original human form with all injuries remaining on their bodies analogous to the injured parts of their previous apostle form.

    Keys: Berserker Armor, Berserk Armor

    Enabled · Selective · Before character · Order 100 · 100%

    Entry settings

    The Berserker Armor is a suit of highly durable body armor currently worn by Guts. Wearers of the armor are aptly named "berserkers", due to the superhuman strength and inhuman ferocity they are bestowed. The armor suppresses its wearer's pain and fear, which would normally prevent a person from exerting enough force to injure themselves. The result is a significant augmentation of the wearer's physicality, increasing strength and speed to previously unimaginable levels. The armor does this by eliminating the distress caused by pain; the wearer can still feel pain as a sensation, but the mind does not interpret the pain as being a problem, allowing for it to simply be ignored. It also invokes a tremendous bloodlust in the wearer, amplifying negative emotions like hate, fear, and anger that enable the wearer to fight harder. The armor also temporarily repairs debilitating injuries in the heat of battle. For instance, a broken arm will be pieced together by the armor injecting thin spines from itself into the broken bones, returning them to their proper places and restoring the limb's functionality, but leaving its wearer severely injured after battle. The main drawback is that if the wearer does not actively manage or control their negative emotions, the Od can consume the wearer's psyche, transforming them into a feral, bloodthirsty monster that can no longer differentiate between friend and foe.

    The Beast of Darkness is the manifestation of Guts' wrath and bloodlust, born from the trauma of his experiences during the Eclipse and his intense vindictiveness toward demonkind. As an amalgamation of the swordsman's malice, it relentlessly attempts to overtake his mind. The Beast of Darkness's influence on Guts intensifies with his negative emotions, especially when he activates the Berserker Armor. In this state, Guts fights without restraint and can overwhelm powerful foes. The Beast can temporarily overtake Guts' rational mind when using the Berserker Armor, and its presence is fueled by repeated use. Schierke's magic, Guts' willpower, and the Moonlight Boy can hinder the Beast's control, but it's never permanently expelled, only temporarily subdued. The constraints on its influence won't last forever.
