Akashirushi

Among the Kōka-no-mono

Kōka-no-mono Akashirushi (a.k.a. 赤印)

Summary:

A ranking member of the Kōga Ninja, having undergone special rites to join the enigmatic group known as "Kōka-no-mono". These elite shinobi undergo a secretive initiation said to involve the ritual consumption of Yōkai flesh. In Akashirushi's case, the process endowed him with skin as hard as stone and a pair of mighty fists to crush the ninja clan's enemies, among other dark powers. It stole away from him his intelligence, however, and any sense of common sense. With his shinobi training intact, he makes for a useful blunt instrument, but an awful tactician.
