A living legend WHO WIELDS a bad attitude and a big stick!
A powerful and sly oni sealed away in the Sea of Trees, Akanemaru was discovered by Colt and Kengo while searching for the divine wellspring of knowledge. Little did they know, Akanemaru had been spiritually bound to protect it. After a big fight, and a bit of misunderstanding, Akanemaru learned about spellbreaking, its culture, and its potential for mayhem. Akanemaru whole-heartedly warmed up to the idea of doing it himself. As he could only be freed by the creation of a new contract, Colt cleverly signed up on the spot, much to Kengo’s shock and dismay.
Though Akanemaru is entirely new to the spellbreaking scene, that hasn’t stopped him from kicking names and taking ass (...wait). His favorite training ground is the demonic hive of Kowloon Walled City (he has a somewhat mysterious connection to China), where he gleefully participates in underground fight pits.
Akanemaru was once known as ‘Lightning Drinker’, one part of a duo of viscous Oni who once terrorized the Japanese capital during the final years of the Heian Era (794 to 1185), when magickal creatures, yokai, and oni were already beginning to decline as the nation continued to experience cohesion and legal reform. He and his partner, ‘Thunder Caller’ were challenged by a sumo to a contest of strength, with the stipulation that they return whence they came if they win. The arrogant ‘Lightning Drinker’ finally met his match, yet instead of swearing vengeance against the wily sumo, fell madly in love with the only mortal to ever best him. This led to a series of tragic events in which the sumo was banished by the imperial spirit summoners for cavorting with demons, ‘Thunder Caller’ destroyed, and Akanemaru sealed within the Wind Cave at the Sea of Trees, to watch over the Divine Wellspring of Wisdom. He bears deep scars from battles past, including a broken horn and a damaged eye (which he swears he can still see out of).
Akanemaru is, in a word, difficult. Though able to ‘behave’ enough to satisfy Colt’s demands, Akanemaru loves testing the boundaries of his contract, drinking and fighting and generally causing the type of chaos an oni would. Thankfully, Akanemaru isn’t exactly complex, and like most ogres of his lineage, can be dealt with by plying him with liquor or tricking him into compliance before he realizes he’s had the wool pulled over his eyes. He is easily motivated by food. He constantly threatens to eat Spike (who he genuinely adores), though whether this is a euphemism or not is not something the sailor stud has ever stuck around to figure out! Akanemaru, despite his rude and brash nature, has an undeniable innocent side when it comes to discovering new aspects of the modern, human-dominated world. His most recent obsession is motorcycles, and is currently saving up enough battle money to buy a custom. Though he is still adjusting to the GSA (and the rules of the human world) the other spellbreakers have slowly warmed up to his brusque charms. His peers affectionately call him ‘Aka’.
Since Akanemaru is a ‘hidden’, unlockable character, not many people are aware of him yet. Still, Akanemaru doesn’t see the need to prove himself. He’s just here to have fun and wreak havoc in the ring! Despite knowing nothing of the culture until recently, Akanemaru is a natural-born heel, who loves employing the use of foreign objects, especially his highly dangerous oni-club he affectionately calls ‘Black Emperor’. He uses it to bring down lightning, or smash it into the canvas to cause earthquakes, destabilizing his opponents before he rushes in and beats them to a pulp! Akanemaru ‘s techniques are just as brutal and messy, often combining both submission and power techniques. His ‘Nitro B.B.’ is a gory special bomb that stretches and crushes his opponent’s limbs before he slams into the mat with seismic force, usually causing a localize earthquake in the process. His submission finisher, the ‘Rock Goroshi,’ is a rocking horse variation that sees Oni riding his opponents and stretching back their limbs as he zaps them with electricity. Of course, regardless of what devilish move he uses to finish off his opponent’s, if he’s not satisfied in his destruction, he’ll gladly put on the coup de grace with a ‘kiss’ from his Black Emperor club, even after the bell has rung.
“What the hell ya’ looking at?”
‘’Kanpai, b***es!.”
“I’LL RUN RIGHT OVER YOUR STUPID FACE”
“Here comes the pain!”
“Give the Black Emperor a nice kiss, will ya!”
“Not so pretty any more, are ya, punk?”
