— Shiva to Raiden Tameemon in Resonance
|
Shiva is the Gods' representative in the fifth round of Ragnarok, going against Raiden Tameemon.
Shiva is a prominent deity and the leader of the Hindu Pantheon. He is a Chief God and known as the "Cosmos' Bhairava" (宇宙の破壊神, Uchū no Bairava), the "Strongest God of Destruction" (最強の破壊神, Saikyō no Hakaishin), and the greatest brawler in Heaven.
Appearance[]
Shiva is a tall, muscular man shown to have four arms and five golden eyes, with only three of them open when he's calm. He has indigo skin and black hair. He wears a golden bandana and baggy golden trousers equipped with a blue sash. Also, he has blue tattoos on his wrists & fingers, which he had inherited from his best friend, Rudra.
After using Tandava Karma, Shiva's skin will turned to red and his pants will turned to blue with blue flames cover on his arms and legs.
Personality[]
Shiva is introduced as a carefree, proud, and powerful God. However, he has shown violent tendencies, even against Zeus himself but stood down in respect of his senior. This is further reinforced when he boldly became shocked by what his opponent thinks of Ragnarok, stating that it is the best event.
In his youth, Shiva was far more lazy and easygoing. Almost every serious thing he did, was through following his best friend, Rudra, while he actually enjoyed to sleep and dance, so much that he wished to become a God of Dancing.
However, he did say he always has fun with Rudra, so he is fine following after him.
Once he and Rudra finished fighting their way to the peak of Svarga, he shows a lot of compassion towards Rudra, trying to change the subject to not fight him and begging Rudra to give up so he wouldn't have to harm him further. In the end, Shiva tried to pretend to act defeated so he could stop the fight and make Rudra happy to think he achieved his dream. However, when Rudra scolded him to give it his all and made him see he really got to the peak of Svarga, he finally accepted the title of leader of their pantheon.
He states in his round that he won't lose to anybody and that he isn't going to let Rudra and the people cheering on him down. Vishnu does comment that Shiva is always reckless while Rudra replies by stating that while he (Shiva) is nicer than anyone, once he get into a fight, he enjoys talking with his fist more than anybody else. Varuna also comments on how Shiva doesn't stop smiling, no matter how many times he gets hit, and Agni states that Shiva doesn't know the meaning of restraint.
Abilities[]
Overall Abilities: Shiva is described as being the greatest brawler and strongest god of destruction in all of heaven. He managed to defeat all of the other Hindu gods, including Rudra, who is the second strongest god in the Hindu Pantheon.
Physical Abilities[]
Godly Strength: During his battle with Rudra, their clashes sent massive shock waves throughout Svarga and the sound of their punches echoed through the entire land. As said by the other Gods, Shiva has great strength. He managed to grab a punch and a knee from Raiden and send him flying across the arena with his 4 arms, hitting him in the abdomen and making him fall back after the blow. After recovering from Raiden's headbutt, Shiva quickly delivered a barrage of punches with his 4 arms that made Raiden retreat backwards, with the pressure of his punches being compared to cannon fire and causing his opponent several injuries. After having one of his arms crushed, and deciding to fight more seriously, Shiva's punches were able to blow away Raiden, even with his guard up. Shiva has demonstrated godly leg strength with his kicks being able to scar and singe Raiden’s flesh. During the climax of Round 5, Shiva with Tandava Karma was able to stop Raiden Tameemon’s Yatagarasu and even managed to split and burn his arm in half with Deva Loka.
Godly Speed & Reflexes: Shiva managed to block Raiden's punch right after being hit hard on the head and also blocked his knee after taking another blow to the head, thus already attacking after defending himself. Shiva, after recovering from Raiden's headbutt, quickly counter attacked with a serie of punches that made Raiden retreat backwards, who had difficulty reacting to all the blows, letting Shiva land one on his head and one on his ribs. After using the Hidden Treasure of Svarga, Shiva's speed increased to the point of leaving multiple afterimages, allowing him to evade Raiden's attacks and overwhelm him with multi-hit attacks.
Godly Durability: According to Shiva, the toughest part of his body is his head, which he claims is solid as rock. Shiva took two full blows from Raiden on the head and quickly recovered after spitting some blood. He endured a headbutt from Raiden, injuring him as a result of their clash.
Godly Endurance & Stamina: Shiva has displayed immense pain tolerance, being capable of staying conscious and continue fighting even after losing three of his arms. During his fight with Rudra, the sweat that flowed from their duel became a heavy rain that rained down upon the entire land, yet despite their fight possibly lasting for hours, Shiva showed no signs of dehydration by the end of it.
- Thermal Resistance: Shiva is able to dance until his body starts to generate enough heat to burn the flesh of his opponents. Despite the heat being powerful enough to damage Shiva's own body, he is still able to continue without showing any sings of pain. After using Tandava Karma, Shiva's own body was set on fire and nearby objects started to burn away, yet despite all the damage that he took from this process he was still able to survive the intense heat.
Four Arms: Thanks to his four arms, Shiva possesses far greater dexterity in combat then most people; defending himself from oncoming strikes with one set of arms whilst attacking his opponents with the other pair.
Fighting Abilities[]
Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Shiva is extremely skilled in the art of unarmed combat. He was able to defeat 1116 Gods with nothing but his fists, including Rudra, his partner that helped him defeat 1115 out of the 1116 Hindu Gods. With his four arms, he can use moves and techniques that can not be performed by most Gods. Even having lost three of his arms, he was still able to fight on par with Raiden.
- Expert Dancer: Shiva is also a very skilled dancer, capable of dancing in the rhythm of the cosmos. By implementing dancing in his fighting style, he can fight more effectively and make his movements more unpredictable. He also has multiple techniques which involve dancing and by using said techniques he managed to defeat a great number of powerful gods.
Supernatural Abilities[]
Semi-Immortality: As a God, Shiva has a limitless lifespan and will not die of old age.
Divine Physiology: As a God, Shiva possesses physical abilities far greater than any ordinary Human. His body cannot be harmed by mortal weapons, however, he can still be harmed by unarmed attacks from individuals with superhuman strength and Divine Weapons.
Pyrokinesis: Shiva can produce powerful heat and flames. The heat is capable of burning nearby objects and turning them into ash, however, he is not completely immune as the heat also harms his body.
