In his humanoid forms, Great Red appears as a red-haired individual with bright golden eyes and baggy clothing. In his male form, he is a man around his twenties with creamy skin and slightly spiky hair.

Girly Red
The female manifestion of Great Red. She is a pretty woman, looking around the same age as her male form, with the same creamy skin. Her hair is only a bit less spikier than in her male form and her fangs are more visible.

Personality
"I can be mature if I need be. The only reason I've acted the way I've acted in front of you and Issei, is because I don't have anything better to do. To be truthful, I really don't relish in being a delinquent. I just do it for the sake of doing it. As much as I don't want to admit it, Issei's changed me."

- Great Red admitting his true self Great Red is more often than not, depicted as a gang delinquent, because of his usual attitude towards everything around him. He is a very uncaring and quite selfish individual, seeing as how he doesn't usually have a high opinion or takes much interest in beings, inferior to him. And because of the majority of the supernatural entities are below him, Great Red is somewhat of an outsider. He had even chosen to reside in the Dimensional Gap, where he couldn't disturb others and they couldn't disturb him as well. Great Red is known to go into violent tendencies whenever someone either insults his pride, stares at him for too long or just destroys something the Great Red considers precious. Under Issei's influence, the god he'd regard as his younger brother, Great Red adopted a more humane personality, showing vulnarability, care, affection and anger at those who would harm him and those he considers family. Great Red is overall a Neutrally-good being with extreme might and cocky attitude, who aids and supports Issei, both physically and spiritually, all through out the latter's adventures. In the continuation story of ROSG, in which he is featured as well, Great Red, due to becoming more and more human-like in persona, can express deep emotions of despair, depression, sadness and anger-at-self for being unable to prevent a tragedy from occuring.

History
Just like in canon, not much is known about his backstory. Only that he is a very ancient dragon, who was born from the concept of the 'Dream'. At one point, he occupied the Dimensional Gap after Ophis had temporarily left, which in-terms world spark a long one-sided conflict between him and the Ouroboros Dragon. Thousands of years later, Great Red, along with many of the supernatural entities, sense the abnormal energy, coming from Issei Hyoudou when he was just an infant. Later on in the story, Great Red would grow to befriend both the Solar God and Ophis. As Issei goes through many big obsticles and adventures, Great Red continiously supports him. During that time, the Great Red begins to expand his range of friendly reletionships even more. To this day, Great Red continues to live alongside Issei, Ophis and the Trihexa, supporting each of them when they need him.

Powers & Abilities
Immense Strength: Great Red was abnormally powerful, so much so that his might was considered Infinite and there were very few beings in the Supernatural World that could pose a threat to him. The Apocalypse Dragon, as confirmed in both canon and in the story, was far more powerful than the Two Heavenly Dragons and every god in his universe. The only beings known to have had a similar margin of power were the Trihexa, Ophis and formerly the aspects of the Void. Because of his title as the 'Apocalypse Dragon', it can be assumed that the Great Red, in his prime, was so strong he could bring an end to the Supernatural World, as such, he is one of the few beings who could wipe out the entirety of that world in a short period of time. Currently, Great Red is tremendously weaker than before, but he still has much power left within him.

Immense Durability: His durability was just as immense as his power, bordering with absolute involurnability, with only beings of extreme might capable of severely injuring him. The immensity of his durability was proved numerous times by both statements from many of the characters and fights, the Great Red had participated in. Vali, the strongest White Dragon Emperor till now, couldn't inflict any sort of damage on him, though the former wasn't at his prime at the time. Withstood attacks from the 666 beast as well. Just like his strength however, his durability is currently far inferior to what it once was, making him killable and easily injurable.

Weakness(es)
Great Red is very hot-tempered and careless during direct confrontations, as he is one of the most powerful beings in existence.

He is also vulnarable to the Poison of God, which both damaged and weakened him to such an extend, that he was left damaged in a scrawny and pitiful form, which was no longer truly immortal.

After the severe downgrade of power, the Great Red is now vulnarable to much more dangers than he was before.
