== Summary ==
* "Hawwa" (in this card's Japanese name) is based on the stars of [[wikipedia:Ophiuchus|Ophiuchus]], which contains [[wikipedia:Alpha Ophiuchi|Ras Alhague]]. In medieval Islamic astronomy (Azophi's Uranometry, 10th century), the constellation was known as Al-Ḥawwaʾ "the snake-charmer".

**Due to this monster being based on Ophiuchus, which is symbolized by a man carrying a snake, it is holding a staff that looks like it has been bound with a snake, similar to the Rod of Asclepius.
 
***A symbol commonly associated with Ophiuchus is the Caduceus, which is a staff with two snakes wrapped around it.
 
***The symbol of [[wikipedia:Ophiuchus (astrology)|Ophiuchus]], [[File:Ophiuchus.svg|20px]] (⛎, U+26CE OPHIUCHUS; Unicode block: Miscellaneous Symbols), can be seen at the back of this monster. Ophiuchus has sometimes been used in sidereal astrology as a thirteenth sign in addition to the twelve signs of the tropical Zodiac.
 
 
 
* This monster appears in the artworks of "[[Constellar Star Cradle]]" and "[[Upshift]]".
 
 
 
* This card's staff appears in the artwork of "[[Cursed Shadow's Snare]]".
 
 
 
* According to the ''[[Duel Terminal]]'' storyline in the Duel Terminal Master Guide 2013, "Constellar Rasalhague" used the power of the "[[Gishki Aquamirror]]" to fuse itself with the 3 corrupted "[[Ice Barrier]]" dragons to become "[[Evilswarm Kerykeion]]" in order to defeat "[[Sophia, Goddess of Rebirth]]" together with "[[Constellar Sombre]]", which means that it is not a true "[[Lswarm]]" monster, and is also not completely corrupted per se, as compared to the other Duel Terminal monsters infected by the virus of "Lswarm", and thus explaining the "[[Constellar]]" symbol that can be seen on the Aquamirror staff that "Evilswarm Kerykeion" is holding.
