Jotun of Grief resembles a white, obese humanoid creature with six arms, with a pair of arms on its chest, at its shoulders, and on its back. Its arms are chained by handcuffs, with the middle pair of arms chained to its legs. It is also riding on a white rocking horse with a steel mask and steel rockers. Just like other Hanged Man Shadows, its mask is upside down.

===Persona 3===
Jotun of Grief is the final guardian encountered in Tartarus. Its Arcana is the Hanged Man and it is located on 252F in the Adamah Block. It blocks all ailments. Upon defeating this boss, the Judgement Social Link will reach Rank 9. Tartarus will remain blocked at 254F until the game's (playable) final day.
Jotun of Grief is designed to exploit an unprepared party, as it absorbs all attacks other than Pierce and Almighty. If any party member uses a default Physical attack that isn't Pierce-based, the enemy's strategy of Stagnant Air + Infuriate would have that enraged party member attacking (healing) it twice.
It's recommended to bring three allies that use Pierce attacks; Yukari, Ken, and Aigis. The protagonist should use a Spear or Bow weapon with +Resist Rage or equip a Persona with Null Rage. Allowing other party members to become Enraged can be a double-edged sword; damage output is increased and they get to attack twice per turn, but their defense stat will be significantly lower. Therefore, the protagonist should be immune to Rage in order to heal and revive party members. Buffs and debuffs are also particularly helpful here since the boss can use any of the three "Ma-" debuff moves.
Upon reaching low health, Jotun of Grief radically changes its strategy by casting a Mind Charged Megidolaon continuously until it is killed or healed above the critical threshold. Note that it will also no longer cast Infuriate during this phase.
Alternatively, it is possible and advisable to fight it using any character with a "break" type spell, followed up by the according "dyne" spell. Also bring along a character who is proficient in buff and debuffs and any method necessary to counter the boss enraging spell, may that be an item or curing spell.
