Rock (ロック) is the leader of the Iron Boulder Brigade. He and his party first met Vandalieu and Fang during a hunting trip, just outside Morksi.[1]
Appearance
"Rock is a young man of average height"[2] of 5.5ft+,[?] "but has a tough-looking face that resembles a boulder that has been weathered away by the wind as well as a body with steel-like muscles."[2]
Personality
He is a natural tsukkomi human. He also has a natural survival instinct.[?]
Rock and his comrades are passionate people with much empathy for others. This is shown by how they wished to avenge a young boy they had thought to have been killed by a Demon Dog, though this misunderstanding was soon cleared up. He has a helpful and altruistic personality, shown by how he is attentive of new adventurers, although it is not required of him. He often gives them advice, accompanies them on their training and teaches them about which monsters they need to watch out for on their first hunts in devil's nests.[2]
Because of these qualities, the Iron Boulder Brigade has earned the trust of the guild's employees and much popularity among younger adventurers. Guid Master Berard is even considering recruiting all of them as instructors at the Adventurers' School once they retire.[2]
Unlike what his muscular and tough "appearance might suggest, he is a studious person and possesses an especially deep knowledge regarding monsters." As an adventurer, he has an average amount of talent and is the hard-working type." He and his party members express to their friends that they wish to at least breakthrough to C-class before they retire.[2]
He regularly prays to the gods in gratitude every time he hunts monsters, to show his devotion. He used to pray to the god of soldiers and the god of thunderclouds.[1] Later he converted to Vida's religion after the monster rampage.[2]

Powers and Abilities
As an adventurer, Rock was a top D-class adventurer with lower C-class prowess.[3] However, his abilities are average and he has been struggling with a bottleneck.
