Kalrow is a member of the Seven Deities and is the leader of the Shinkoku Army fleet. His Mantra Affinity is Sloth.

Appearance Edit

Kalrow is an old man with a long white beard, eyebrows that connects to his balding, pointed hair and an eye that has been replaced by an unknown object, resembling a metal eye-patch with a black swirl on it. He wears robes which drape over his body and resemble the attire of a Buddhist monk. He bears white markings consisting of circular and linear designs on his hands and face. He also wields a staff that has wheels and a platform, functioning like a segway.

PersonalityEdit

Kalrow was an indolent demigod with a tendency for complaining about the ongoing battles and the situations that occurred around him. He often referred to the factor of his age and how he felt he was getting old for his battles. Despite his indolence, he was a capable tactician and even organized the battle plans of the fleets of the Seven Deities as the "Great Tactician". Kalrow took great pride in his strategies and referred to them as flawless, but could easily be surprised when his plans were thwarted by an unprecedented issue (i.e. Asura wiping out his entire fleet, the Gohma destroying his ships, etc.). Kalrow was also somewhat cowardly as he refused to face Asura in person and generally used his minions to confront his opponents on his behalf. Hints were given that Kalrow is the God of Sloth.

HistoryEdit

Kalrow was a member of the Eight Guardian Generals, but he preferred to stay out of the fighting. Although he doesn't wield any combat prowess like some of the other Deities, he is an excellent strategist. Kalrow and Deus worked together on the plan to save Gaia, but Deus was the person who set it all in motion.

12,500 Years laterEdit

After Asura escaped Naraka, he met a young girl and the people of her village. Asura defended them from an attack of the Gohma, but soon after, Kalrow arrived with his soldiers to collect the souls of the people. Enraged by this deed, Asura killed Kalrow's soldiers and attacked his fleet which was flying in the sky. Kalrow let his fleet attack Asura, but the latter was too powerful and managed to wipe out the entire fleet. Kalrow managed to use an escape pod to flee, but Asura managed to grab on it. Kalrow begged for his life, but Asura crushed the escaped pod and Kalrow with it.

Kalrow later reincarnated into the modern world where he became a old man who caused trouble to the police by speeding on his Segway-esque vehicle.

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Kalrow is an elite demigod who was an integral member of the Seven Deities.

• Combat Prowess: While Kalrow is not as powerful as his fellow deities, his greatest skill is his vast intellect, as he can create strategies that can turn the tide of any battle. Kalrow possesses supernatural intelligence that allows him to coordinate the flow of the battlefield. Although it was Deus who killed Emperor Strada and ordered Durga to be killed and Mithra captured, Kalrow created the plan to overthrow the Emperor and seize control over Shinkoku. Kalrow is also known to be technologically savvy and manages to avoid physical confrontations using well-placed and realistic holograms and using his large number of troops to defeat his opponents. According to the Official Complete Works Guidebook, Kalrow is also an accomplished swordsman, but was never shown displaying such skill.
• Immortality: Like all other demigods, Kalrow possessed immortality and was unable to age, even though he was by far the eldest member among them. His lifespan may have been infinite thanks to Mantra. He could not be killed by conventional means, but Kalrow could be destroyed by other deities and the Gohma.

TriviaEdit

• Kalrow is the oldest of the Seven Deities.
• The plan to overthrow the Emperor and use Mithra as a source of power was Kalrow's doing.
• Kalrow's name, altered from the original title, Karlow, is a derivation of the name 'Harlow'. The name, 'Harlow', which means 'army' in Old English, connects to Kalrow's position as a military figurehead.
• The markings on Kalrow's body (as well as all of the race of the Deities), are very similar to that of Amaterasu, Chibiterasu, and Shiranui from the Okami series.
