Rimuru Tempest

## Description

### Slime

Rimuru appears as a blue-bodied Slime. As a slime, since his body is androgynous, anything he mimics takes on an androgynous form of the respective creatures, while still bearing huge resemblances to the individual creatures as well.

His mass also grew over time, allowing him to accommodate larger mimicry forms without using extra magic to compensate for the additional mass.

### Mimicry: Human

In this form, Rimuru possesses blue-silver hair. There are no visible sex characteristics; however, he is often mistaken for a young girl due to the fact that the original form belonged to Shizue Izawa. But when he wears the anti-magic mask he kept as a memento from Shizu, his speech pattern can also make him seem like a prepubescent boy to others.

Unlike Rimuru's other Mimics, his hair changes color to one similar to that of his original slime body. This might be related to Shizu "optimizing" her body for spirit possession by Ifrit for several decades.

Since his slime body is equal in mass to his human form, Rimuru fills this body with solid shape instead of black fog. Without the black fog, there is no additional magic consumption required to maintain the form. There is no discomfort when he assumes this form. If he uses the black fog, he can also assume the form of an adult.

His fine motor capabilities improve when he is in his human form, and he finds it easier to move in than his slime form. Even though it appears to be human, this form has no need for breathing, excretion, and reproductive organs. However, he can freely eat, taste, and drink.

In his human form, he wears a black fur coat and a scarf. Under the coat, he wears the kimono and pants that Shuna had made for him. He also wears the steel thread underwear he makes himself. He often wears Shizue's old mask to hide his monster aura.

## Biography

He has a kind heart and a quirky personality. Even though he is quite laid back and wants to avoid troublesome situations as much as possible, he actually works very diligently when there is a task needed to be taken care of.

Rimuru tends to react very severely when there's a danger to his close ones, such as his countrymen, subordinates, (possibly due to the soul-link he shares with them), good friends, and students (he can't stand children suffering). One might say he overreacts to these cases, but it simply shows how deeply he cares for them, as a stark contrast with his usual cheerful self. Even Hakuro noted during The Rise of the Demon Lord Arc that Farmas had "angered the one creature in the world that should not be riled." During this time Rimuru showed a great rage boiling within him for the murder of his countrymen; though he could suppress any outward expressions of it, he needed a copy of Shizu's mask to suppress his magicules due to his rage unintentionally releasing his power.
