Raimi is one of Hades' 108 Specters, bearing the title Terrestrial Submission Star (地伏星ワームのライミ, Chifukusei Wāmu no Raimi) and serving in the Underworld army. His Surplice depicts a multi-headed, sharp-toothed worm, granting him earth manipulation and subterranean movement abilities. Combat-focused tentacle-like extensions form part of the Surplice.
In *The Lost Canvas* timeline, Raimi infiltrated the Sanctuary underground to assassinate Athena. Encountering Tenma and Sasha, he expressed enjoyment at hearing the screams of women and children before attacking. He bound Tenma with "Worm's Bind" but underestimated the boy, who broke free and counterattacked. As Raimi prepared to strike Sasha, he sensed her immense Cosmo and recognized her identity. Aries Shion intervened, defeating him with "Stardust Revolution."
During the main Hades narrative assault on the Sanctuary, Raimi resurfaced among Specters invading the Leo Temple. After Leo Aiolia instantly killed five Specters, the survivors sought cover. Raimi dug an opening underground and ensnared Aiolia with his Surplice's tentacles, declaring his intent to claim sole credit for the Gold Saint's defeat. Aiolia broke free, seized a tentacle, and overpowered Raimi, slamming him into the floor. Raimi emerged behind Aiolia, attempting another "Worm's Bind." Aiolia instantly responded with "Lightning Plasma," killing Raimi as he expressed disbelief.
His signature technique, "Worm's Bind" (ワームズバインド, Wāmuzu Baindo), uses the Surplice's worm-like tentacles to entangle and strangle opponents from below ground, reflecting his earth and burrowing association. Conceptually, his powers and Surplice connect to worms' role as decomposers in graves, evoking death and decay themes referenced in works like Edgar Allan Poe's "The Conqueror Worm." The star designation Terrestrial Submission Star originates from the character Shi En in *Water Margin*. The name "Raimi" may reference filmmaker Sam Raimi, known for creature effects involving worms and spiders, while also meaning "compassionate."
His personality exhibits cruelty, sadism, and ambition. He explicitly stated pleasure in causing fear and pain, particularly targeting the vulnerable. During the Sanctuary invasion, he acted opportunistically, seeking personal glory by attempting to eliminate a Gold Saint single-handedly. This overconfidence and desire for recognition directly contributed to his defeat.
