Baiken

Baiken is a character from Arc System Works' Guilty Gear series who appears as a DLC guest character in Samurai Shodown (2019).

She is voiced by Mayumi Asano, her current Japanese voice actress since Guilty Gear Xrd series.

Personality
Hailing from an alternate reality where not only her family but Japan itself have been destroyed by Gears – living weapons created from infusing humans with magic that rebelled against their creators – Baiken is an aggressive, impulsive and anti-social person motivated solely by revenge, and her sole drive is wanting to kill a demonic-like culprit who goes by the name "That Man", not the Gear Maker. She has remained bitter over her family's demise and intensely hates Gears. She tolerates a small handful of characters, such as Anji Mito, to a certain extent. Though she dislikes the idea of the Japanese being treated like a special race, she occasionally shows pride towards her heritage. Baiken also comes off as a masculine female character, but despite her rough personality, she is capable of showing compassion and mercy.

Powers

 * Ki Manipulation: Being of Japanese descent, Baiken seems to possess the ability to manipulate Ki in the form of seals, although she is not reliant upon it nor as versatile in its usage as others in the series.
 * Object Summoning: She also seems to have knowledge of summoning magic in order to conjure tatami mats for her attacks.

Fighting Style
Boasting the claim that there is nothing her blade cannot cut, Baiken is considered to be a fearsome fighter, using her secret weapons and traditional Japanese katana with great skill, despite the loss of her left eye and right arm. Her secret weapons, designed to surprise her opponents, are hidden within the sleeve of her severed right arm: a Japanese mace, a feudal cannon, a bladed fan, a chain rope, a hook, a claw and a spear.
