Rizevim Livan Lucifer

**Rizevim Livan Lucifer** was the Leader of the Khaos Brigade's Qlippoth Faction and one of the four known Super Devils. He was the son of the Original Lucifer and Lilith, Adam's ex-wife and Mother of all Devils; he was the father of Razevan Lucifer and grandfather of Vali Lucifer.

He served as one of the main antagonists of the Fifth arc.

## **Appearance**

Rizevim has the appearance of a middle-aged man in his 40's with dark silver hair and hazel eyes. He looked much like his grandson, Vali, albeit with longer hair and a beard. According to Issei, Rizevim possessed a bottomless and creepy aura around his body. He wore the same Maou Lucifer attire as Sirzechs, although colored in silver.

Similar to Vali, Rizevim had multiple pairs of devil wings, but he has 12 wings.

His height is [176 cm] and weight is [66 kg].

## **Personality**

Rizevim acted in a light-mannered way, speaking in a way that is filled with jokes that carry no weight and filled with ill intent. He was also known to be immensely malicious, vicious and brutal, as he even toyed with his son, whom he deemed to be worthless, to persecute and throw away Vali before killing his son, as well as slapping Asia and almost killing her if it had not been for Fafnir's intervention. He was very prideful with his achievements, always acting like this made him superior to everyone and for being a "True Devil" in his eyes.

Unlike most of the Four Great Satans' kin, Rizevim didn't have much interest in seeking revenge against the Underworld or the current Four Great Satans. He also did not have any interest in world domination that his father and the other original Satans and their descendants had desired. During the civil war, The Lucifuge Clan encouraged him to participate only at their headquarters, which he accepted as a gesture of goodwill. When Tsufaame was killed he simply yawned nonchalantly and leaves feeling that his duty to “just be here” had been fulfilled, and he decided to go home and sleep because he was bored showing no interest of war from the beginning.

He also believed that Devils are beings that have to be evil, wicked, brutal, bad, scum, wrong, brutes, as well as vicious, and it is the role of a Devil to kill every single person they don’t like. Rizevim followed this ideology to the extreme as shown when Rizevim openly admitted to committing filicide, as shown when Vali questioned Rizevim about his father to which Rizevim casually answered that he killed his own son for annoying him by showing weakness. Vali commented that Rizevim is evil and malicious to begin with which the latter didn't deny, and even Azazel commented that his malice still exceeds expectations.

Also according to Rizevim himself, he was a self-indulgent person and had a lame life, comparing himself with an object that was capable of thinking. This changed after Euclid Lucifuge brought him information about the Holy Grail, proof of another world and 666 (Trihexa). Being filled with ambition and dreams for the first time in his life, Rizevim decided to bring chaos to the world he is staying in by reviving the Evil Dragons and heading on to the other world to bring chaos there as well. He described himself as "an old man with the mentality of a kid with an eighth grade syndrome". He even ensured Trihexa's awakening to be successful even at the cost of his life as he used his own soul as a sacrifice to ensure chaos and destruction of the world upon his death as his legacy.

He is overconfident in his Sacred Gear Canceller, believing no Sacred Gear or Longinus can ever harm him, leaving him stunned when Megumi was able to slash him with True Longinus and Issei was able to break through his defenses and punch him with his Penetrate ability, and later Diabolos Dragon.

Despite acting as Satan, its nothing more than an act. No matter how dignified his words and deeds sound, his clownish attitude is his true nature. During his fight with Issei and Vali, he display his clownish attitude playing around while mocking his opponents and sticking his tongue out. After his defeat at the hands of Issei and being cornered by Vali and Fafnir, Rizevim, out of fear of losing his life, showed a very cowardly side of himself and started begging for his life, only to be killed by Fafnir.

## **History**

Rizevim was the only biological son of the original Lucifer and Lilith, who had otherwise used the Book of Lucifer to asexually produce the first generation Devils. Sometime after the Great War, which resulted in the deaths of all the original Four Great Satans, he had a son named Razevan. Rizevim became one of the Old Satan Faction's main members, but had no interested in taking on his father's position. He was as one of the four Super Devils inside the Underworld alongside Sirzechs Gremory and Ajuka Astaroth from the Anti-Satan Faction as well as Madara Uchiha from the Uchiha Clan.

During the civil war, Rizevim and Razevan hid themselves instead of participating, resulting in victory for the Anti-Satan Faction. At some point before the series started, he suggested that his son abused his grandson, Vali if he was afraid of him, spurring his grandson's hatred for him and his father, as well as causing Vali to run. He later killed Razevan for fearing Vali's retribution.

Since then, Rizevim lived in boredom until Euclid mentioned the Holy Grail, and the Other World along with another **Universe**, and the Apocalyptic Beast. All of which stirred up his desire to chaos across across the world using all of the revived Evil Dragons and Trihexa before moving onto the other world, becoming the new leader of the Khaos Brigade following the Demonic Beast Riot.

## **Powers & Abilities**

**Immense Demonic Power:** As the son of Lucifer and Lilith, Rizevim was one of the four Super Devils who have exceeded the realm of devils and Satan-Class surpassing his own father. Bidleid commented if Rizevim is serious he could even take on Gods. He could make six massive 10-meter demonic bullets capable of destroying the town underneath them and clashed against Infinity Blaster, causing shockwaves and phenomena across Agreas. Despite being a Super Devil, Issei, Apophis, and Aži Dahāka all considered him one or two levels below Sirzechs and Ajuka, but Sasutsuchi is three levels below Madara although none of them ever revealed their full powers.

* **Sacred Gear Canceller** (神器無効化セイクリッド・ギア・キャンセラー, *Seikuriddo Gia Kyanserā*): He developed his own ability, unique among devils, which could nullify nearly all Sacred Gear abilities, in addition to powers enhanced by using them with a single touch. However, he wasn't able to nullify "Penetrate", one of the unique abilities of Boosted Gear, which is able to bypass all defenses or the power of Knight of Owners due to it origin. Later, it was shown that Sacred Gear Canceller has a limit to what it can cancel, albeit a limit high enough that Rizevim himself was unaware of it, as it was unable to negate Issei's attacks or armor in Diabolos Dragon due to having Ophis' "Infinite" added to it.

**Immense Strength:** Rizevim has immense strength, letting him overpower Issei and Fafnir without ever getting serious against them. In Vol 9.5, he was able to match a suppressed Naruto and Sasuke who returned form the Ōtsutsuki Universe, fight against

toyed with Vali using Balance Breaker and fought against Issei using Diabolos Dragon, their clashes generated shockwaves powerful enough to shatter buildings and cause Evil Dragons to fall from the sky.

**Immense Durability:** He is extremely durable, which is shown in Volume 6 where he took a slash from Megumi using the True Longinus feeling immense pain and causing him to bleed. He was capable of blocking two holy swords using his hands despite being a Devil, admittedly when weakened but stating it wouldn't have mattered even at full strength. Rizevim took blows from Issei using Penetrate, getting nothing but a bloodied nose, and Michael's light spear head-on, not only unharmed but laughing. He was able to take Sasuke's Dark light attack coming out with slight burns, Naruto's Sage Art: Magnet Rasengan and Sasuke's Demonic Chidori. He survived Issei's Diabolos Dragon attacks and the aftershock of their combined blasts, albeit with half his wings damaged and blood dripping from his entire body.

**Immense Speed:** In his brief fight with Issei, Rizevim had shown to be capable of moving at tremendous speed, as he was able to appear behind Issei in his Cardinal Crimson armor without him noticing. Rizevim was able to keep up with Naruto and Sasuke during their fight in Agreas.

**Immense Stamina:** Rizevim has impressive stamina and endurance, being able to endure being killed hundreds and thousands of times in his dreams due to Fafnir's curse, remaining active and fighting against both Naruto and Sasuke without showing diminished strength. He later fought against Issei, who entered Diabolos Dragon, and was still capable of moving around after receiving serious damage from the aftershock of Infinity Blaster and his own six demonic spheres.

**Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant:** Rizevim has demonstrated sufficient hand-to-hand combat skills, in addition to his Sacred Gear Canceller, he could overpower masters in their own rights such as Issei and Vali. Leaving that aside, he was capable of fighting against master swordsmen wielding holy swords such as Xenovia and Irina at the same time. In Vol 9.5, he was able to match both suppressed Sasuke and Naruto.

**Master Tactician:** Rizevim had proven to be a crafty and manipulative strategist in his goals to revive Trihexa, as shown when he concealed his desire to seal Agreas by attacking it and magicians located at Auros Academy, under the pretext of stealing their magic knowledge, tricking them into creating a powerful teleportation spell so their Stray Magicians could alter them so that Agreas could be teleported away instead. However, due to his own arrogance in underestimating his opponents and sudden anxiety caused from Fafnir's curse, Rizevim had started slipping up and doing various unnecessary things.

**Flight:** Rizevim was able to fly using his 12 Devil wings, which he can also use to defend and attack, slashing his opponents.

## **Trivia**

* "Rize" is the obsolete spelling of *rise* which means "to rise." "Vim" means "power, energy". "Livan" means "to live" and "Lucifer" means "morning star" or "light-bringer". So Rizevim's full name translates as "The rising power to live as the morning star or light-bringer".
* Rizevim was the first Super Devil.
* His childhood acquaintance Bidleid Bashalun Beelzebub warns him that the Sacred Gear System and other Super Devils will lead to his defeat in the near future. This was proven true when Rizevim was defeated by Issei, a Sacred Gear user later recognized as a Super Devil.
