Cocytus


 * "Fifth Floor Guardian Cocytus, at your command."
 * - Cocytus' Introduction

Cocytus (コキュートス) is the floor guardian of the fifth floor in the Great Tomb of Nazarick. He is a hybrid between a mantis and an ant. He was created by Takemikazuchi.

Appearance
Having an enormous body size of 2.5m, Cocytus has the appearance of an insect walking on two feet - a fusion between a mantis and an ant.

With a tail twice as long as his height, Cocytus is covered with sharp spikes like icicles and has a strong jaw that can easily snap people's hands. Two of his hands hold a silver halberd, while the remaining two hands hold a mace emitting black light and a crooked shape sheath which seems to be for a broadsword. With a breathtaking cold air, the pale blue, hardened bone armor oozes out diamond dust like bright light. His shoulders and back look like an uplifted iceberg.

Personality
As Floor Guardian, he's in charge of Nazarick's martial defense, Cocytus seem loyal to a fault. As shown when he prevented Demiurge, under Ainz's order, from interfering in Ainz's fight against Shalltear even though he too also feared the possibly of losing his master.

A warrior by heart, he likes a good battle and has a sense of honor. Unlike his isolationist and xenophobic colleagues he is more accepting in allowing outsiders join Nazarick. Though he takes pride in his position as Nazarick's defender, he is somewhat envious of his fellow Guardians. As he thinks the only way he could prove to Ainz his worth is by actually defeating the invading forces that would be a threat to Nazarick.

Trivia

 * In the web novel, he was put in charge of the security from 9th floor to the 10th floor.
