Name: 受難, or Kurushimi.
Age: Many centuries. They can't remember.
Gender/Sex: The former means nothing and the latter is irrelevant.
Description: Kurushimi is nearly twelve feet tall in their base form. Their
armor is very dark and rather sinister. Small decorations are strung from their back with dark cloth. A blue ribbon protrudes from their helmet. When angered or especially emotional, the seams of their armor and their visor glow purple. On their hip sits the sheath for their katana (誘惑, or Yūwaku) that easily measures two meters long. Yūwaku itself has a purple handle adorned with the same ribbon on Kurushimi's helmet and black blade that seems to glow with a strange power.
None know what Kurushimi looks like without their armor on.
Personality: Kurushimi is exceptionally silent, communicating through gestures - or the blade. They seem not to feel happiness, fear, or despair as others do - but anger is very real to them.
Backstory: Kurushimi hails from a land where few outsiders know its existence. This land is home to a race of giants; much like men, as you or I, but near twice as tall and much more powerful. Though thankfully they are not a band of conquerors, the giants make their living by the sword. Competitions, war... all of it done with blade in hand. To them, fighting with another weapon, or even with such things as magic is taboo and results in exile.
Kurishimi has lived a very long life and traveled very far. They live with the wind and without care, squashing an army here or killing a monster there. Nothing matters to them about their work except the gold they recieve from the tiny people they have been a part of for so many years. Kurushimi remembers next to nothing about their existence before this, except their banishment, and its cause - Yūwaku.
Other: The decorations upon their back are able to move at their command, like short extra limbs. Kurushimi is a master of the art of iaijutsu and it is their preferred fighting style.
They can unsheath their sword, attack, and sheath it without an untrained eye recognizing they have moved. They can dash forward many yards so quickly they might have teleported, create waves of sinister energy with a slash, create a dark portal to anywhere they wish so long as they have seen their destination once before and even alter the size of their body at will, among other such abilities.
Kurushimi never uses Yūwaku with both hands unless they are enraged. This was the last sight of many lives they have extinguished.
