Line 21: Line 21:
Rodin is a high-ranking demon who acts as a demonic weaponsmith, forging weapons made from the souls of demons for those capable of wielding them and able to afford them. Once a weaponsmith for Paradiso, he was a high-ranking angel with the Dea status, second only to its ruler Jubileus, The Creator. However, after a failed attempt to take over Paradiso for his own reasons (or perhaps after being falsely accused of doing so by jealous rivals, as his profile in the Hierarchy of Laguna suggests), he was cast from Paradiso to Inferno.

However, after a failed attempt to take over Paradiso for his own reasons (or perhaps after being falsely accused of doing so by jealous rivals, as his profile in the Hierarchy of Laguna suggests), he was cast from Paradiso to Inferno.


Now one of the most powerful ranking demons in Inferno, he harvests the souls of the fellow damned and fuses them into weapons. He hawks these wares from his bar, the Gates of Hell. Rodin created Bayonetta's [[List of firearms#Bayonetta's_Handguns|signature guns]] "Scarborough Fair" and "Love is Blue".

In the first game, he has a mostly professional relationship with Bayonetta. He provides her with the weapons she needs to slay angels, and she provides him with halos, the in-game currency. In the second game, he is shown to be far more light-hearted than before; dressing as a street-side Santa during the holiday season, and proclaiming that disbelief in Santa Claus is "sacrilege". He also has a seemingly strong bond with the family of Enzo, Bayonetta's informant.

Rodin serves as a secret boss in both ''Bayonetta'' and ''Bayonetta 2''; the first game has him using his former angel combat skills, while the second has him use his current demonic powers at full strength. He is also a playable character in the second game’s multiplayer mode, Tag Climax.

Rodin appears as an [[Assist Trophy]]. He is voiced by Dave Fennoy in the English version and Tesshō Genda in the Japanese version and reuses clips from ''Bayonetta 2''. He will say "Let the games begin!" when summoned, and traverses around the stage using abilities similar to [[Bayonetta]]'s, though significantly stronger.  
Rodin appears as an [[Assist Trophy]]. He will say "Let the games begin!" when summoned and he uses his own version of the Wicked Weaves and After-Burner Kick, as well as generating random items and tossing them to those who summoned him. He will also say "Huh! Drink's on the house!" when he departs. He can be KO'd and will give a point if that happens. If items were turned off, then he will leave the stage without tossing items.

===Spirits===
Rodin also appears as two different [[primary spirit]]s.


His attacks consist of:
Rodin's spirit can be [[summon]]ed using the cores of {{h2|List of spirits (Animal Crossing series)|Brewster}} and {{h2|List of spirits (Pokémon series)|Aegislash}}.
*His own version of Wicked Weaves, which will either consist of him summoning giant versions of his arms for one punch, two punches, or an uppercut similar to Bayonetta's up smash.
*His version of [[After Burner Kick]], which can go diagonally upwards or diagonally downwards, which deal high knockback instead of being combo tools like Bayonetta's.
*If in the air, he can perform a [[stall then fall]] where he stomps onto the ground.
Before he departs, he will toss a random item (usually a battering item or projectile-firing weapon like the [[Super Scope]]) while announcing "Huh! Drink's on the house!". He can be KO'd and will give a point if that happens. If items were turned off, then he will leave the stage without tossing items.


===Spirits===
Rodin, the Infinite One can only be obtained by [[Enhanceable spirit|enhancing]] the Rodin spirit at level 99.
