God Hand

Perhaps the most terrifying element of the series is the existence of God Hand. Not so much in the way they look but rather in the way they can influence events and lives of people without anyone suspecting it. However, they *do* look scary. God Hand is a group of beings or angels (for a lack of a better term) worshipped by those living in the world of the dead and often referred to as their "gods of good fortune". However, they can also be summoned into the human world by their disciples and their arrivals are always accompanied by a human sacrifice.

	Void He is the first of the God Hand to appear hence, he's considered the leader of the group. He is the one wearing an H.R. Giger-inspired cape. With his entire brain exposed, eyelids sewn shut and lips pulled back, he certainly conjures up images from Hellraiser. As their leader, he performs the "kouma" ("surrender to evil") ceremony which involves the branding of unlucky humans, marking them as sacrificial offerings to those who serve them.
	Conrad He is considered Void's assistant in performing the "kouma" ceremony. The second one to appear, he is a squat figure with a back that looks like a turtle shell and beneath it is a skirt that hides his feet. Like Void, his eyelids are also sewn shut.
	Ubik The diminutive member of the group, Ubick is the one with a shell-like body and flipper-like appendages attached to it. He has the ability to peer into the minds of men and project them for all to see. He is often seen floating around when they appear and unlike Conrad, he is a constant chatterer.
	Slan Among the God Hand, Slan is the only one with the form of a female.
	Femto The last one to join God Hand. As one could probably tell, Femto used to be Griffith. During his transformation, Void gave him the title of "Wings of Darkness".
