Rigurd, once chief of a goblin village, ruled his community beneath the sealed dragon Veldora’s protective influence. The death of his eldest son, Rigur I, during a direwolf assault triggered a crisis that summoned Rimuru Tempest’s aid. Following Rimuru’s defeat of the direwolves and bestowal of names upon the goblins, Rigurd shed his frail, elderly form—previously dependent on a walking stick—to emerge as a muscular hobgoblin with enhanced longevity, human-like proportions, and freedom from prior physical constraints. Crowned Goblin King, he extended governance to nearby goblin settlements before rising to Prime Minister of the Jura-Tempest Federation. Tasked with civil administration, citizenship oversight, and domestic policy, his authority stood unchallenged beneath Rimuru. Responsibilities broadened to include diplomatic engagements and security coordination, frequently orchestrating public celebrations while maintaining a stoic yet accessible presence. Though primarily an administrator, his combat prowess rivals A-rank adventurers, evidenced by feats like hoisting a 20-meter megalodon unaided alongside Geld. Unwaveringly loyal to Rimuru, Rigurd occasionally reveals unrestrained enthusiasm in his leader’s company. As a parent, he openly celebrates his surviving son, Rigur II—a hunting party leader memorializing his fallen brother. His tenure as village chief and survival of direwolf sieges forged a leadership approach blending pragmatism with dry humor during emergencies. Unconscious of his physical might, his evolution from an overlooked goblin elder to a cornerstone of Tempest’s political framework highlights his adaptability in shaping a multinational coalition.
