Dagda was designed by [[Masayuki Doi]] for [[Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse]], and in order to match the narrative of the game Doi emphasised Dagda's control over life and death. He resembles a human wearing greyish-green armour on his body with his skeletal hands exposed and a cape torn in half at his back. His head is covered by a helmet with a golden question mark on his forehead. His eyes are emerald green and resemble that of a human, the cheeks of the helmet are exposed to reveal a skeletal mouth, and his red hair surrounds his entire head and connects to his head. He wears a large golden belt around his waist with a large Celtic triskelion at its center. On his collar is a golden emblem of a four leafed clover contrasting with [[Danu]]'s three leafed shamrock symbolizing his rejection of Christianity as the shamrock is associated with the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity Holy Trinity].
