Koketsu: Difference between revisions

|name_japanese=コウケツ

: Kouketsu was a short, fat dictator who took over the wasteland after the collapse of [[Raoh|Ken-Oh's]] empire. He was originally an obsequious horse-groomer in Ken-Oh's army, who was humiliated by Raoh when trying to win his favor. For this, Kouketsu held a deep and paranoid hatred for Raoh, even after his master's death.

: Taking advantage of the peaceful era, Kouketsu forced Raoh's men into slavery by kidnapping their children, including [[Balga]], whose young son, [[Shingo]], was taken prisoner. Believing the age of power was over, he ruled over a monopoly of agriculture and sent his armies to any conquer any fertile land. This caused the deaths of [[Ryu|Ryu's]] adoptive parents and began Ryu & [[Kenshiro|Kenshiro's]] quest for revenge. They infiltrated the slave camp and formed an uprising against Kouketsu, reviving the spirit of Raoh's army. Failing to defeat Kenshiro with his [[Kouketsu's Pet|Frankenstein-like "pet"]], Kouketsu accidentally killed himself with one of his own traps.
