A shinigami with a humanoid look, Deridovely takes on a humanoid shape. Like the Mummy from the pyramid, his face is shrouded in a bone mask, and his body is wrapped in what seems like white linen. He has full, crimson lips and long, black hair. Deridovely was inspired by a “gross-looking transparent insect,” according to Takeshi Obata. In Obata’s opinion, the bandages enhance the overall look.
Like the Shinigami gook, Deridovely enjoys gambling with Ryuk but hates having to physically move. In the pilot, Deridovely gambles with Gook and beats him at his own game. Gook asks Ryuk to come along, but he is preoccupied with the Human World.
