Characters
Rubedo
ルベド
The Strongest Entity of NazarickNazarick: Area Guardians & Other NPCsNot disclosed (Chinese fan circles theorize that she is a golem; unverified)Unknown
Personality
The books describe almost nothing about her; neither her appearance nor her personality has been revealed. All that is known is that she was created in a completely different way from her two elder sisters and that her activation test has already succeeded.
Abilities
- In pure hand-to-hand combat she surpasses Albedo, Cocytus, and Sebas
- Her overall strength exceeds that of Touch Me, the guild's strongest member (from the author's Twitter, July 23, 2015, not the main text)
- Even a fully equipped Ainz probably could not beat her
- Ainz believes only "those" on the 8th Floor combined with a World Item could defeat her
History
- Created by Tabula Smaragdina using a special method, different from the one used for her two elder sisters
- Her eldest sister, Nigredo, expressed loathing for her and called her "Spinel," while her second sister, Albedo, defended her as "a lovely child" (Vol. 3)
- Albedo obtained Ainz's permission to deploy her and assigned her to the secret unit searching for the Supreme Forty-One (Vol. 7)
- As of the latest volume, she still has not properly appeared
Trivia
Her name comes from the alchemical term "rubedo" (reddening), matching Nigredo (blackening) and Albedo (whitening), so fans speculate that she wears red. The author once half-jokingly said on Twitter that she might never appear before the series ends.
Relationships
- Tabula Smaragdina: Creator; made her by a method completely different from the one used for her sisters
