Mukaga
A powerful Island Oni who claimed Old Ashton as his own. Appears ruthless, but caring for those under his protection in his own way. Seemingly has contacts from all across Pallet.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Mukaga, like other Oni, is shared with that of the environment it resides in. Large and stout, with a dark aqua skin tone, with dark blue skin tones.
Body Features
His face is marked by sharp, chiseled features and luminous green eyes that exude an otherworldly glow. Two slightly curved horns extend from his broad forehead, resembling polished black coral. His long, flowing hair, reminiscent of seaweed with dark green and black hues, cascades down his back, adding to his commanding presence.
Apparel & Accessories
Dressed in a woven vest made from palm fibers, Mukaga's attire is adorned with intricate seashell patterns, while his leggings of woven plant fibers feature earthy tones and designs that echo waves and foliage. His accessories include a necklace of large polished shells and bone charms, and braided vine wristbands. His body is adorned with tattoos mimicking traditional island motifs, which glow faintly with mystical energies.
Specialized Equipment
Mukaga's weapon of choice is a giant anchor, one he keeps with him at all times, strapped to his back. He wields it similar to that of an axe, and is able to throw it out and pull it back with the chain attached to it.
Mental characteristics
Morality & Philosophy
Mukaga, the Ruler of Old Ashton, is a complex character who embodies a nuanced blend of morality and philosophy. On the surface, his actions might suggest self-interest typical of his Oni heritage, especially with his insistence on high taxes. However, his governance reveals a deeper, albeit twisted, sense of responsibility and guardianship over the island's residents.
Mukaga's morality operates within a gray area that balances his inherent oni nature with a genuine desire to fulfill a protective role. His actions are guided by a pragmatic approach to leadership: exacting significant taxes ensures quality and sustainability in the projects he undertakes for the community. This shows a commitment to the well-being of his subjects, though some might argue it's also a convenient vehicle for maintaining control and influence. Despite his greed, Mukaga is not cruel; his judgments, while firm, are consistently based on a calculation of long-term benefit rather than immediate malice. He employs his extensive global connections to benefit the islanders, demonstrating a commitment to their development and prosperity.
Mukaga's leadership style suggests a philosophy where ends justify means, as long as the ends constructively contribute to the community's endurance and prosperity. His unique blend of traits—harsh yet fair, uncaring but responsible—paints the picture of a leader who, despite his Oni nature, finds a path to create and nurture a thriving island community.

Contacts & Relations
Oddly enough, Mukaga appears to have contacts spanning all across Pallet, able to bring in specialized artisans to fulfill requests made from those who live upon Old Ashton. He keeps his his secrets close, but seems well aquainted to those who he brings in.
