Rigardo

Rigardo was the No.2 Claymore before his Awakening, and is from the same generation of Claymores as Easley and Duff. Rigardo comes across as calm and composed, but was the most bloodthirsty in Easley's army. Although he did not get along with Easley, he worked for him and Priscilla during the Northern campaign, having been defeated by both. While his nickname was Silver-Eyed Lion King, he disliked it for unknown reasons.

Appearance
Human appearence: Rigardo in his human form is a man with black hair. Different from other Awakened Beings, Rigardo still had the characteristic silver eyes of the Claymore.

Awakened form: His Awakened form resembled a 3 meter tall, silver-eyed humanoid lion.

Extra Scene 3
In the manga extra scene 3 chapter set sometime between when Priscilla awakened and the northern campaign, Rigardo was sent by Easley to stop Priscilla. Easley underestimating Priscilla's yoki didn't realize how powerful she was and Rigardo fought but was quickly defeated by her.When Easley comes to Rigardo's rescue and fights Priscilla himself Rigardo comments that Priscilla's yoki feels endless.

Northern campaign
During the Northern Campaign, he was dispatched to kill off the 24 Claymores sent against Easley's army. He deduced Miria's tactic of dividing the Claymores into teams, and began by eliminating the five team captains, who were also the strongest Claymores present. Of the five (Miria, Flora, Jean, Veronica, and Undine), Miria was the only captain to survive his assault. Jean was mortally wounded, while the other 3 were killed instantly. He intentionally ignored the weaker members in favour of focusing solely on the captains, which led to his downfall when Clare went berserk and killed him in her partially-Awakened form.

Abilities
Being far smaller in stature than the average Awakened being, Rigardo relied more on his correspondingly superior speed and agility in battle. His speed easily matched that of Miria, one of the fastest Claymores of her generation, and his greater Yoki allowed him to maintain it without tiring. For long-range and surprise attacks, Rigardo could extend his claws at high speed, much the same way Yoma and other Awakened hyper-extended their fingers. His control over this skill was so great he could bend and change the trajectory of his elongated claws, allowing him to strike opponents above or behind him. In contrast to his offensive capability, Rigardo was lacking in regenerative powers, and could not regenerate lost limbs quickly.
