* [[WMG:Each member of the Godhand has a specific purpose, that they're are choosen to fit in every specific incarnation]]
With the more recent chapters showing different entities serving as members of the Godhand, it makes sense that there is a specific function for each one of them, that once they've served their purpose would be discarded for a new choosen one of a new age. Griffith/Femto shows how the process works, they're are guided though their lives with a specific ambition, and once they have reached the peak of despair, the behelt awakens and begins the process of making them the new member of the GodHand after their predessessor is quietly "discarted". and each member has a specific role to play in the advancement of the plans of the Idea of Evil:

But in a twist they've been purged of the Godhand's influence, given some HeelFaceBrainwashing and now loyally serve Skull Knight to help Guts' quest. Of course Guts would be ''horrified'' at the idea of working with his past horrific enemies like Rosine, Slug Count, Mozgus(and Egg), and even ''Wyald'', but he technically did work with an Apostle to fight Ganishka(Zodd), and at this point they'd need all the help they can get against the Godhand and their legions. Plus plenty of BlackComedy seeing a bunch of horrific child-eating monsters try to be nice and friendly around the heroes.

- 3º, The manipulator: A inbetween of the first two, this one was an intellectual that possessed great ambitions in the world, possibly in the political sphere, and was crushed by the competition, at which point they sacrificed their supporters. In the Godhand, they manipulate candidates to ascencion with their memories, deconstructing and twisting the facts in a way that would benefit the Godhand. Ubik and his predessessor serve this function, with the predessessor in question being the gaunt figure with only a mouth in it's face.

- 4º, The BeastMaster: A person with a connection to the natural world, that uses that connection to manipulate lower creatures that would otherwise be unbound from the control of the GodHand,aka animals. How exactly this candidate would sacrifice to GodHand is unknown, since we don't know if the Godhand would accept animals as sacrifices or how they would gain a human following. Conrad and his predessessor fit this role, with their appearances also revealing how the Godhand chnages over time. The predessessor in question looked like a lion, a large predator that would harm and attack small human communites. As the humans developed ways to protect themselves from animals like that, Conrad instead focuses on insects and plague rats, small animals and that can infiltrate cities and infect and kill thousands in very short amounts of time.

- 1º, The Philosopher: A wise individual who searched for greater understanding of the world around them, and in searching for that understanting, they aqcuire large followings that are inspired by their ideas and beliefs, only to eventually be brought down once those ideas come in conflict with the established way of thinking, the Philosopher them, after having their ideals shattered, offers his followers to the Godhand and ascends. In the Godhand, they serve as the unoficial leader that guides the other members towards their more high-minded, long term goals. Void and his unseen predessessor fit this role.
- 2º, The Seducer: A atractive and charming Individual that enchated many (often those frustated with societal constraints) with their beauty, and inspired their physical desires, causing them to break from common norms of society and search for other ways to enjoy their lives. Eventually they lose most their appeal, either because they're suplanted by others or because they're attacked for their disruption of the norms, at which point they sacrifice what's left of tehir admires. Slan and her predessessor fit ths role, and it's worth noticing that slan's predessessor in the flashback has a design inspired by the statue of Diana of Ephesus, a religious figure showing a fertility goddess with many breasts.

- 5º, The Savior: A heroic figure that inspires others to follow them on their journey,often being taken as messiah, only to eventually suffer painfull and humiliating defeats at the hands of the main authorities of the world, after which they sacrifice their loyal followers and take the role actual messiahs to the humanity. Femto and his predessessor, the bearded warrior, serve this function. In the wold times, these role could be fitted by a powerfull conqueror that gathers followers by strenght, and in Femto's case, gathering followers by providing relief from the sufferings of world and promises of salvation. Unbeknown to those followers is that the Savior in question is the byproduct of those injustices, and prepertatror of new ones.

Reiterating some factoids above, it's possible that people with pointy ears might not be entirely human, and might actually be part of an ethnicity/nation of people who had an apostle as an apical ancestor. They're kind of like the "elves" of [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda the Zelda-verse]]: they have pointy ears because of some meaningful lineage, but other than that, they're pretty much normal humans. Because of their demonic lineage, they've become pariahs and have no national boundary of their own, so they must live off the borders of other states as mercenaries (so, they're basically a combination of the [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy proud warrior race]] and [[ProudMerchantRaceGuy proud merchant race]]). If they stay in one place for too long, they're subjected to [[KillEmAll ethnic cleansing,]] which might have been the unfortunate fate of our hero's mother. So, maybe reason why we've been seeing less characters with pointy ears is because the story simply is not taking place in their territory.
