Raoh: Difference between revisions

: As Raoh developed a fierce and terrifying fighting style, Ryuken came to fear his power and chose Kenshiro as his successor to Hokuto Shinken. Subsequently, Raoh broke the 1800 year law of Hokuto by refusing to give up his power. Ryuken tried to stop him from misusing the Hokuto style, but Raoh killed him and left the temple to further his ambition. He assumed the title of Ken-Oh (拳王 '''Fist King''') and amassed an army to conquer the wasteland. Among those to join under his banner were [[Jagi]], [[Amiba]], [[Yuda]] and [[Ryūga]].

: Raoh established the mighty stronghold of [[Cassandra]] as a prison for martial artists, whose secret scrolls he had stolen to perfect the ultimate fighting style. He also kept Toki imprisoned there to prevent him joining forces with Kenshiro. However, Cassandra was destroyed by Kenshiro and Toki was rescued. Raoh launched an invasion on [[Mamiya|Mamiya's]] village, where he fought with [[Rei]] of the ''[[Nanto Suichō Ken]]'' style and defeated him with a fatal blow. Kenshiro challenged Raoh for revenge and the two battled to a bloody standstill, after Toki intervened to stop them killing each other. Raoh would finally duel with Toki to settle their childhood promise. Toki, weakened by disease, was defeated by Raoh but spared his life in a rare act of mercy.

: Raoh would later fight against the [[Nanto Gosha Sei]], guardians of the mysterious [[Last Nanto General]]. When Raoh discovered the General's real identity was [[Yuria]], the love of his life and Kenshiro's fiancée, he marched onwards to claim her for himself. However, he was met by Kenshiro, who had learned the ultimate Hokuto Shinken technique - ''[[Musō Tensei]]'' - which overwhelmed him with fear. Raoh managed to escape with Yuria in his clutches and decided that killing her would bring him the sadness needed to learn the technique himself. However, at the last moment, he discovered Yuria was hiding a terminal illness. This moved Raoh to tears and stopped him from killing her. Instead, he placed her in a false coma, slowing the spread of disease. This alone was enough for Raoh to learn Musō Tensei and he faced Kenshiro at the [[Hokuto Renkitōza]] for their final clash. After an epic battle, Raoh realized his powers were unable to defeat Kenshiro, whose soul was strengthened by the blood and tears he shed against his great rivals. Conceding defeat to his younger brother, Raoh proclaimed to have no regrets and sent his life-force into the sky, restoring light to the world.
