Indra is a minor antagonist in the manga/anime series Record of Ragnarok and a major character in its manga spin-off Record of Ragnarok Forbidden Legend - Apocalypse of The Gods.
He is a major antagonist of Shiva's Flashback during the Fifth Round and a supporting antagonist in the Fifth Round of the Ragnarok Tournament.
Indra is the Hindu God of Lightning, as well as one of the few Gods who, when the Hindu Pantheon was divided into clans, lived alone. After being defeated by Shiva and Rudra, Indra became a member of the assembled Hindu Pantheon as Shiva's subordinate. He is also one of the 16 Gods who participate in the Apocalypse Tournament to win the last place in the Gods Fighters of the Ragnarok Tournament and the possibility of creating a new law in the Constitution of Valhalla.
He is voiced by Noshir Dalal, who has also voiced Vice Admiral Rampart in Star Wars: The Bad Batch, Charles Smith in Red Dead Redemption 2, Adrian Graye Vernworth in The Owl House, Sandayu Oda in Cyberpunk 2077, Bode Akuna in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor and Mysterio in Marvel's Spider-Man 2, in the English dubbed version of the anime adaptation. However, it is unknown who dubbed him in the Japanese dub.
Appearance[]
Indra is a God with the appearance of a tall, muscular man, with a mulatto complexion and with messy platinum white hair on his face covering his eyes. His torso and forearms are covered in a fleshed-out red pattern. He is barefoot and wears long white trousers with a long orange mini tied in the middle. He almost always has a cigarette in his mouth.
Personality[]
Indra is a calm and confident individual, even slightly arrogant as he was willing to fight against Shiva and Rudra in a 2 vs 1 match. However, he is also capable of recognizing the power of someone when he sees him, as he has acknowledged his defeat at the hands of Rudra. However, if he sees a one-sided conflict, Indra already takes the final result for granted and appreciates those who prove themselves equal to his strength. Indra knows how to be supportive of both Shiva and the other Gods of the Hindu Pantheon.
Biography[]
Indra is the Hindu God of Lightning who, when the Hindu Pantheon was divided into clans, lived alone. One day Shiva and Rudra decide to try to climb to the summit of Svarga to make Rudra King of the Hindu Gods, and after defeating several Hindu Gods they find themselves fighting against Indra. Indra agrees to fight in a 2 vs 1 match, but Rudra insists on fighting him alone and, in the end, manages to defeat Indra. In the end, after defeating all the other Hindu Gods, Shiva defeats Rudra, who abandons the Svarga immediately after, and becomes the King of the Hindu Gods before all the other Hindu Gods including Indra.
Millennia later, following the proclamation of the Ragnarok Tournament, Indra participates in the meeting of the Gods' Council in which Zeus announces the Gods Fighters that would fight in the Ragnarok Tournament representing the Gods. When many Gods become angry at the absence of their names, Sun Wukong points out that one name is missing from the list, and it is at that point that Zeus announces the Apocalypse Tournament between 16 Gods to win the last place in the Gods Fighters and the possibility of inserting a new law into the Constitution of Valhalla.
Indra also participates, and his opponent in the Round of 16 will be Zhuque. While waiting for his match, Indra witnesses the battle between Cú Chulainn and Ra-Horakhty, which ends with Cú Chulainn's victory.
Some time later, during the Ragnarok Tournament, Indra and the other Hindu Gods find Rudra in the stands of the arena during the Fifth Round and, together with him, witness the fight of their leader Shiva against Raiden Tameemon, seeing Shiva emerge victorious after having unleashed the Tandava Karma. At the end of the Fifth Round, Indra and the other Hindu Gods reach Shiva in a state of disrepair in the corridors and, here, they see Shiva admit to Zeus that he now considers Humans fantastic.
While Shiva is hospitalized in the infirmary to repair the three arms cut during the Fifth Round and follows the other matches of the Ragnarok Tournament, Indra and the other Hindu Gods go to visit him to make sure he is well.
Powers and Abilities[]
Overall Abilities: Indra is one of the strongest Hindu Gods of all, although he is inferior to both Shiva and Rudra, having lost in a single battle against Rudra. Furthermore, Indra is strong enough to have been chosen by Zeus as one of the 16 Gods to participate in the Apocalypse Tournament to take the final place in the Gods Fighters of the Ragnarok Tournament. As a God, Indra possesses physical abilities far greater than those of any ordinary Human. His body cannot be damaged by mortal weapons, however it can still be damaged by unarmed attacks by individuals with superhuman strength and by Divine Weapons. Furthermore, Indra cannot die due to old age.
Atmokinesis and Electrokinesis: Indra seems to be able to unleash thunderstorms and summon lightning whenever he wishes, and can also use lightning to light his cigarettes.
