Background/History: Yurimaru is one of the more dangerous members of the Eight Devils. A sophisticated, soft-spoken individual, Yurimaru is amazingly ruthless. He is always dressed in fine clothing and doesn't carry a weapon. He doesn't need one, having a bizarre electrical control power that is more than sufficient to dispatch his enemies.
Personality/Motivation: As second in command, Yurimaru is totally devoted to Gemma. His is also Gemma's occasional lover and more than a little bit jealous that Benisato also shares Gemma's bed. Yurimaru has very little tolerance for failure and disobedience on the part of his underlings, and kills Benisato for failing in her mission to stop Jubei (of course, his rivalry may have had something to do with it). Yurimaru also despises Zakuro and will have nothing to do with her, despite her obvious love for him. Yurimaru ends up paying in a big way for spurning Zakuro's advances....
Quote: "Twice failed. Unforgivable."
"We have an important mission. We take every precaution."
"Upon my honor, I will not fail."
Powers/Tactics: Yurimaru can control and conduct electricity through his body. He can also transmit this electrical power to his targets through fine wires. These wires allow him a wide range of effects, including—wrapping the wire about someone's neck and lifting them clear of the ground, attaching a wire to a bo shuriken and tossing it into the water (where the electrical discharge than blasts the whole lake), sending an electrical charge down the wire and frying whomever the wire is attached to (either EB or RKA), using the wire to communicate long distances (consider it to be form of Mind Link) and leaving a wire attached to someone so you can listen in on their actions (Clairsentience). When Yurimaru generates his electrical pulses his skeleton glows a bright white, shining quite clearly through his body.
Appearance: Yurimaru is of average height, with a handsome face and carefully arraigned hair. He wears a long flowing kimono and hakama, pauses to smell the flowers, and speaks in a soft, cultured voice.
