Title: Kurojin of The Bloody Carnage
Would like to fight: Metalixca, Asura-Mantis, Manticore, Gutworm, Solomon at his prime
BRIEF BACKSTORY
At first, an errant "samurai" fighting off Gedoes on his own with his sword,he was adopted and taken in by Solomon, in the latter's effort to recruit troops to fight his War for Liberation against the Gedoes and "Mother".He played a pivotal part in the war and stayed loyal to Solomon 18 years after the war,zealously leading Solomon's organization, The Peacemakers, with the other two commanders to unify the entire city
PERSONALITY
Kurojin is,by his own admission,not fond of most others; he is cold,blunt and generally apathetic. He has a very authoritative tone about him .He keeps even his closest friends at arm length and only focuses on work,to a degree that worries even his superior Solomon.
He is honestly invested in his job,however, and harshly reprimands troops prone to corruption and frivolous behavior.
For how cold he is,Kurojin greatly values physical strength,merit and discipline; he is highly condescending towards those he feels ''take it easy''. He also thinks all warriors are set on the ''Path Of Bloodshed'', something he adheres to like a religion,vague as it is to everybody else.
BATTLE STATS
Kurojin fights with a long sword he owned since childhood.
Valuable war experience and constant training allowed Kurojin to not only dethrone Father Solomon as the strongest swordsman, but to also become known in all of Titanomachia as the strongest warrior,only rivaled by fellow commanders Metalixca and Asura-Mantis,as well as Gutworm and Manticore.
Most of the time,Kurojin doesn't use his ability,as his swordplay is usually enough for most threats but when he does,it's revealed that his ability is to manipulate his own blood,to the point of being able to change it's properties and chemical composition. He can harden his blood,make it greatly volatile,boiling hot or even acidic.He has a passive way of using this ability, only used to complement his sword attacks or to weaponize injuries he receives,making him more dangerous the more injured he is.This abilities does have a weakness; overuse causes Kurojin to suffer of anemia and in turn, weakens his ability significantly.
Signature techniques: Hungry Blade: Dukkha
OVERALL BATTLE LEVEL: ******
DANGER LEVEL:5/5
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
After the war ended,Kurojin ended up suffering a massive case of PTSD in secret; he realized that he only found joy in conflict and uncertainty; winning the war left him with a crushing feeling of emptiness.His attempts at fighting this void alone resulted in him turning much colder than before and becoming overzealous in unifying Titanomachia.In his zeal,he observed the Dente race and noticed that with no enemy to worry about,the Dentes became complacent,selfish and weak-willed; this disappointment is heightened when he discovers Metalixca faced bullying from his own troops;this was the trigger that led to his eventual mutiny.While he claims he created a second war to strengthen the Dente race,deep down, he simply wanted to fight fights where the danger of death was upon him,and eventually die fighting a beautiful battle.Once he betrays Solomon and loses everything for his thirst of battle,Kurojin loses his mind and becomes ax-crazy and prone to yelling.
He dies happy that he accomplished his goals (to die in battle and permanently destroy ''peace''), claiming he has become enlightened.
His actions permanently changes the tone of the following arcs of JUNKYARD
NOTABLE RELATIONSHIPS
-He simply could not care less about HYDE and the Exe; they had a rivalry before,but Kurojin now looks down on HYDE and considers the latter to still be a child with a lack of vision.
+He is very loyal to Father Solomon,in his own detached way or is he?
He claimed to have lost all respect for Solomon in the 18 years of post-war,as Solomon grew weaker and became too complacent to perfect his flawed organization.He also stopped treating Solomon as a father by then.Kurojin has no regrets murdering Solomon for that reason.
+The only person he seems to care for is Asura-Mantis, a fellow Peacemaker commander.They are often seen together between (and sometimes,during) missions and seem to share a strong sense of discipline.Kurojin has a rather high opinion of Asura,despite himself. They were close enough that they both planned a coup d'état against Solomon,albeit Asura did not want to kill Solomon or hurt Metalixca. When Asura turns on Kurojin for his warmongering and dies in battle as a result,Kurojin claims to have truly enjoyed fighting him,but cries tears,implying he was the only person Kurojin ever regretted killing.He completely loses his sanity afterwards
=Nobody would know from looking at them,but Metalixca and Kurojin were actually pursuing a romantic relationship.Kurojin's increasingly zealous work ethic and general attitude keeps him very estranged from her however,and Metalixca is the only one who seems to still think they're together. He claims that it doesn't matter and seemingly only cares about her as a fellow soldier and powerhouse.He has high faith in her power. Kurojin's opinion of Metalixca is actually very complicated; he claims to have avoided her all the time out of disgust over her victimization from troops, and hates her for not reveling in her own power and yet, he obviously admires her strength and how much she suffered during the war. To him,Metalixca stopped existing post-war,like many others. He is one of the few to know Meth's real name and he claims she is meant to be the savior of their race.He wanted to die fighting her or Asura and continuously provoked her to that end,after his mutiny.
