Gelmud

"I will give you a name and some food. I'm Gelmud. You can think of me as your father. Your name is Geld. One day you will take possession of the Great Forest of Jura, and become the Orc Disaster."



Gelmud (ゲルミュッド) was a high-echelon Majin that possessed enough firepower, magicules, and skills to support this rank even calling himself "Great Lord Gelmud". He was the puppeteer behind the project of creating the puppet Demon Lord called it "Poisoning Plan", under the employ of Demon Lord Clayman, one of the Ten Great Demon Lords. He planned to create a species war in Great Forest of Jura, but due to the sudden disappearance of its guardian the level of threat and activity of monsters was greatly increased, so he improvised with the creation of Orc Disaster - the new Demon Lord that would be manipulated and controlled by him, but it devoured him instead.

Personality
Gelmud was the type of person that could easily present himself as a well kept gentleman with polite manners and sophisticated speech, but in stressful situations where he is not in control this façade would slip off, revealing the prideful and easily irritated man he really was.

Gelmud did not restrain from declaring and calling himself "Greatest Majin", "Great Powerful Majin" and "Great Lord Gelmud".

Gelmud also showed traits such as insecurity and cowardice when around his employer - Demon Lord Clayman. Gelmud was probably warned by Clayman that his failure would be penalized by death, while in reality Clayman actually had no intention of killing him simply because of Gelmud's overall usefulness as a pawn.

Trivia

 * Even if Rimuru Tempest did not intervene, Gelmud would still need to die for Geld to evolve into the Orc Disaster, since Geld's Demon Lord Seed would be blocked due to being a subordinate which can’t evolve into Demon Lords as revealed in later volumes.
