Oboro

Oboro (朧, Oboro) is a character who appears only in Samurai Shodown: Warriors Rage PSX.

Story
Though he has a kind looking demeanor, he was once a ninja that was revered as much as Hanzo Hattori. He was forced to leave the clan after Hanzo defeats him in a duel. Hateful during his alienation, he learns dark magic and gathers several "cursed weapons". He devotes himself to the will of the earthly Buddda "Jigen Taishi" -who protects Ritenkyo- and spends twenty years plotting the government's downfall. During this time, he creates the "Three Blades of Domination" -or the Razor Trio- and trains an army of skilled amazons. He wants to assume the will of his benefactor and establish a new nation for the martial deity. He also hopes to avenge his disgrace caused by Hanzo.

Personality
An anarchist who hates the shogunate and the current state of Japan. His smiles is a ruse for his foes; only a blood-thirsty and sadistic man lies underneath.

Powers

 * Puppetry - Oboro controls his weapons from afar, relying solely on his magic.

Fighting Style
Oboro uses the cursed armaments of the bewitching blade and magic sword controlled by various spirits created through the ever-changing "Magical Arts of Kakkyo." Because Oboro is at one with the demons, this sorcerer may be injured whenever one of his demons is wounded, even if he is not in the general vicinity. Oboro is also solely character in game, who makes full use of 3D space. In addition to his weapons flying everywhere, their weak point where they could be "hit" and damaged, is very uncertain, making Oboro hardest of game's bosses ti fight with. Because he is so powerful, he was left unselectable to player due to balance issues.
