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. | 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.

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. | In the first game, he has a mostly professional relationship with Bayonetta.

Rodin appears as an [[Assist Trophy]] | 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. He is voiced by Dave Fennoy in the English version and Tesshō Genda in the Japanese version and reuses clips from ''Bayonetta 2''. | ||
