Background / History

Beirut originated from the Yulan Plane and rose to prominence while adventuring in Hell. His innate divine ability, God-Eater, allowed him to establish a fearsome reputation among Asuras and Purgatory Commanders after only one hundred thousand years of cultivation. 121 261

Following the deaths of the Four Divine Beasts, Beirut stole their corpses from the Radiant Sovereign, Augusta, and obtained four Sovereign/Overgod Sparks. He refined the White Tiger's Wind-element spark, becoming a Sovereign, while retaining the earth, water, and fire sparks for potential successors. 134 202 261

He considers the Four Divine Beasts a benefactor because his ascension was tied to their remains. Beirut built the Necropolis of the Gods around their tomb, preserved their corpses, and protected the Four Divine Beasts Clan in the Skyline Mountains. 202

As ruler of the Forest of Darkness, Beirut manages the Necropolis of the Gods and periodically permits Saint Realm and divine experts to enter. Although he provides opportunities, treasures, and guidance, he believes that genuine powerhouses must develop through their own efforts rather than rely on resources alone. 15 42 202

Appearance

Beirut usually manifests as an elderly man in plain black robes. He has long black hair, a chest-length beard, and small but exceptionally spirited eyes compared to bright stars. 14 202

• Loose, simple black robe. 14
• Long black hair and beard reaching his chest. 202
• Often appears from a solidifying black shadow. 14 202
• Maintains a faint smile even when addressing powerful experts. 15 42

Personality

Beirut is cautious, calculating, and highly protective of the Yulan Plane. He avoids unnecessary risks—especially those involving the Radiant Sovereign—and would retreat to the Yulan Plane at the first sign of serious danger. 153 167

He enjoys nurturing exceptional talents from his homeland, but his assistance is deliberately limited. He rewards composure, courage, and practical growth, while dismissing those who rely on hiding or external advantages rather than facing danger. 24 42 220

Despite his imposing authority, Beirut has a mischievous side. He intentionally conceals his connection to Bebe in order to temper him, and he privately planned to let David struggle in the Necropolis after David returned overly confident. 101 261
