Description
Rudd is the protagonist of the story, a young man who starts his journey as an E-rank adventurer, the lowest possible rank in his world's hierarchy. He has brown hair that reaches his ears, purple eyes, and dark skin, and he is often depicted wearing a coat. Initially, Rudd is an outcast within the adventurer community, struggling to prove his worth. His only innate skill is called Status Immunity, which renders him completely immune to all forms of curses, poisons, diseases, and other negative status effects. In a world obsessed with dungeon crawling and combat prowess, this defensive ability is seen as useless for fighting, leading his peers to derisively nickname him the Grubby Forager or Miasma Scrounger, as it only qualifies him for menial tasks like collecting herbs in toxic environments.
Driven by a deep frustration and a desire to change his lowly status, Rudd joins a party for an expedition into a dangerous labyrinth, hoping to finally prove his value. However, the expedition ends in betrayal; his companions use him as a decoy to escape from a powerful monster, leaving him for dead and completely abandoned in the depths of the dungeon. Facing certain death from starvation and his wounds, Rudd makes a fateful decision: he breaks a societal taboo and consumes the flesh of a slain monster to survive.
This desperate act unlocks his true potential. His Status Immunity skill, once seen as worthless, allows him to safely digest monster flesh without suffering any corrupting or poisonous side effects. Furthermore, by consuming the monsters, he discovers he can absorb their unique abilities and physical traits, permanently adding them to his own power set. This revelation marks a turning point, and his motivation shifts from simply wanting to be accepted to a relentless pursuit of strength through this forbidden act of consumption, vowing to never be weak or betrayed again.
In the story, Rudd serves as the central figure whose unique power drives the plot. His role evolves from a powerless victim of circumstance into a formidable force who climbs the ranks by hunting and devouring increasingly powerful creatures. His primary and most notable ability is this unique power of absorption through consumption. Beyond his original Status Immunity, which remains the foundation of his power, he can acquire a wide array of skills from his prey, such as enhanced speed from a swift wolf or hardened skin from a golem, making his capabilities diverse and constantly expanding.
As Rudd grows stronger, his character develops from a timid and underestimated outcast into a more confident and capable adventurer. He learns to strategically view the ecosystem of the labyrinth not just as a series of threats, but as a menu of potential powers to acquire. Key relationships in his life are shaped by his unusual abilities and his starting point as a pariah. He is betrayed by his former party members, which serves as the catalyst for his transformation. Later, he forms a significant bond with an elf girl named Elyssia, whom he rescues, and she becomes a close companion on his journey. His relationship with the wider adventurer society is initially one of scorn and ridicule, but it gradually changes to one of fear and respect as his power becomes undeniable. The available information does not provide extensive details about other key relationships or his development beyond this initial arc.
