Biography

Ryuji Yamazaki (Japanese: 山崎 竜二, Hepburn: Yamazaki Ryūji) was a Japanese male who was raised in Okinawa where he grew up on the streets alone fighting against sailors during his teenage years and later became an enforcer for a criminal mob. One day, he caught glimpse of a well-dressed yakuza boss named Sorimachi (反町そりまち). Aspiring to be like the man he saw, Yamazaki left his town and joined the crime syndicate. Eventually, he worked under Sorimachi, the man he admired as a surrogate father, and found happiness for the first time in his life as his bodyguard. Unfortunately, Yamazaki's uneasiness during a fateful business trip to Osaka alongside his boss marked an ambush from a rival gang, and from there his boss Sorimachi was tortured and killed. The shock of his death gave birth to Yamazaki's insane alter ego. Although he has little memory of his past after this incident, Yamazaki murdered his boss's rival and fled from Japan to Hong Kong. He continues to be an influential broker, weapons dealer, and drug trader with Kowloon Walled City as his base of operations. He is usually at odds with Hon-Fu, who tries to catch and arrest him in the act.

Overview

Personality and attributes

He came to be known as the Wicked Heretic (邪悪な異端者).

Yamazaki has psychopathic tendencies with a love for materialistic articles and money. He has two distinct and equally malevolent personas, being most of the time a calm and calculating gangster, while sometimes turning into a hysterical, deranged and lunatic killer who likes to bash, smash, cut, and kill everyone and anyone whom he confronts. These savagely cruel mannerisms were borne out of witnessing his father figure die in the worst way possible.

Powers and abilities

Yamazaki can headbutt his opponent with such force that he can create a small explosion with its impact. This has also been shown in some cases to stun Yamazaki as well.

Yamazaki can increase the range of his strikes with his arms. This move is extremely fast, making it nearly impossible to actually see Yamazaki's arm - only a blur can be seen, denoting the area of the attack. He can also use the speed of this attack to strike several times at his opponent in a barrage of almost inescapable punches or knife slashes.

He has little to no interest in technique, and instead fights with his instincts in an extremely pragmatic form of street fighting. He uses a wide variety of attacks while fighting, including unfair and dishonest moves such as splashing and/or kicking sand in his opponent's eyes, viciously headbutting and stomping his opponent repeatedly, and pulling out his pocket stashed ever-present-prized knife which he uses to slash opponents.
