Description
Brahma is a deity within the world of Record of Ragnarok, where he is known as the Hindu God of Creation. His background is rooted in a past schism within the Hindu pantheon, during which the gods were divided into different clans. In that era, Brahma allied himself with Vishnu, and the two lived together. Their dynamic changed when Shiva and Rudra embarked on a journey to conquer Svarga. Brahma and Vishnu stood as the final two opponents Shiva and Rudra had to defeat. Fighting as a pair in a two-on-two battle, Brahma and Vishnu were ultimately defeated. Following this conflict, Shiva became the new king of the Hindu gods, and Brahma, along with the others, accepted his rule, becoming his subordinate.
Brahma is characterized by a consistently serious and stern demeanor. He takes matters seriously and is highly observant, often noticing subtle details during battles that others might miss. As a loyal supporter of Shiva, he respects the new hierarchy of the pantheon. He also demonstrates a caring and loyal nature towards his fellow Hindu gods, showing concern for their well-being and worrying about them when they are in potential danger.
Motivationally, Brahma does not seek personal glory or power. His primary drive is to support the established order of the Hindu pantheon, particularly its leader, Shiva. He acts as a steadfast ally and a reliable member of the divine assembly, focused on the success and safety of his pantheon.
Within the story, Brahma’s role is that of a supporting character. He is present at the Gods' Council where the Ragnarok tournament is announced, observing the proceedings. When the Apocalypse Tournament is introduced to determine the final god fighter, Brahma sits in the stands with the other Hindu gods to watch the matches. He shows particular concern for Indra during this tournament, worrying when Indra appears to be late for his match and suggesting that Shiva should search for him. During the main Ragnarok tournament, Brahma is seen in the grandstand witnessing the fifth round, where his leader Shiva fights against the human Raiden Tameemon. After Shiva’s hard-won victory, Brahma is present backstage to congratulate him. He later visits Shiva in the infirmary while the god recovers from his injuries. In a lighter moment, after the eleventh round, Brahma and the other Hindu gods attempt to buy candy, only to find that Buddha has purchased it all before them.
Brahma’s key relationships are primarily within the Hindu pantheon. He shares a very close and loyal bond with Vishnu, having once lived alongside him as an ally. His relationship with Shiva is defined by respect and fealty; he was defeated by Shiva and now serves as a loyal subordinate who supports him unconditionally. He is also a companion to other Hindu gods like Indra, showing worry and support for them during their challenges.
There is little notable character development for Brahma. He remains a consistent figure of serious support and loyalty throughout the events depicted. His arc is not one of personal change but of steadfastness within the shifting dynamics of the divine hierarchy.
As a god, Brahma possesses notable abilities that set him apart from mortals. He has a divine physiology, granting him physical abilities far greater than any ordinary human. His body cannot be damaged by mortal weapons, though it is vulnerable to unarmed attacks from beings with superhuman strength and to Divine Weapons. He is also functionally immortal in that he does not die from old age, possessing a limitless lifespan. In terms of overall combat prowess, Brahma is considered one of the strongest Hindu gods, though the narrative establishes that he is inferior to both Shiva and Rudra, as evidenced by his loss to them despite having Vishnu as an ally. He is also portrayed as less powerful than Indra, who was chosen to participate in the Apocalypse Tournament. His specific unique powers related to his domain of creation are not showcased in the events described.
