- Ryuga (リュウガ Ryūga)
- Ryuga is the master of Taizan Tenrō Ken (泰山天狼拳, "Taishan Celestial Wolf Fist"), a fast and cruel style which severs flesh from the victim's body, inflicting a cold sensation before they die. He is represented by the Tenrō-sei (天狼星) or solitary star of Sirius; the Lone Wolf which is destined to serve Hokuto.
- Having despised the chaos and turmoil that ravaged the post-apocalyptic world, he joined forces with Raoh, believing his iron fist would establish peace and order back to the world. Ryuga started destroying all those who would oppose Raoh and was also curious to test the potential of Kenshirō. In order to provoke Kenshiro into battle, he committed wanton acts of violence and attacked Toki, who was already dying. Kenshiro awakened his rage and defeated Ryuga, who witnessed the true power of his fist. After the fight, it was revealed that Ryuga had committed kagebara (ritual disembowelment) to atone for his sins and was also the older brother of Kenshiro's betrothed, Yuria. With his final breaths, Ryuga announced that Kenshiro would be the one to save the world, and not Raoh.
