==History==
===Background===
Fuga Kudo is a powerful alchemist whose achievements had eventually inspired his own daughter Rinne Kudo to follow in his footsteps. At some point, Fuga began teaching at the Alchemist Academy around the time that Daiki Suzuki and Minato were students. 
Approximately several years ago, Fuga discovered Glion's terrible ambition to open "the Door of Darkness" using the in-development Driver and steal the Ride Chemy Cards. However Fuga was framed by Geyron for his own actions, resulting in Fuga having to go into hiding to stop Geyron. During a confrontation using the Level Number 10 Chemies to stop the Three Dark Sisters, a young Houtaro Ichinose had arrived in an effort to protect the Chemies, whom he had befriended. Acknowledging the young boy's strength and courage, Fuga erased his memories as required by law but hoped the boy will one day grow and reach his destiny. 
Sometime later, Fuga learned of the Philosopher's Stone and managed to retrieve fragments of it. He developed the Gotchardriver as well as Nijigon's egg to house it inside the Ouroboros Realm. However, the Three Dark Sisters found their way inside, forcing Fuga to unleash the Chemies to fend them off. Fuga then asked Hopper1 and Steamliner to seek Houtaro. He would then entrust Houtaro with the driver. In an effort to protect Houtaro so he could escape, Fuga used his body as a shield to block the Sisters fire alchemy attack meant for the young boy and seemingly perished in the process.
In reality, Fuga ultimately survived the attack but had been heavily injured. From that point on, he meditated in a small warehouse room in the Ouroboros Realm to recover, while sending body doubles to serve as intermediaries between him and the young students of the Kitchen ICHINOSE Union.
===Return===
His first known body double appeared in the light of the appearance of Kamen Rider Dread under the control of Minato who nearly succeeded in reclaiming all of Houtaro's Chemy Cards. Fuga presented them with a method of entering the academy through backdoor means as well as a method for Houtaro to transform into Iron Gotchard using only Tenliner.
When the team were overwhelmed by the Dragon Malgam, Fuga's double appeared and transformed into Kamen Rider Wind and defeated the Malgum, recovering both Dragonalos and Gaiard. However Glion appeared and killed the body double, taking the two Level 10 Chemies as well as both Gigabaham and Kuroana that Wind used. Before the double's destruction, Fuga informed the team that the only way to end this was to confront Glion inside the Ouroboros Realm.
===Hunted by the Dark Kings===
As Fuga continued to rest inside the Ouroboros Realm, two more Dark Kings, Germain and Gaelijah arrived on Earth and targeted Fuga as he was known to be the most powerful alchemist at the time. They targeted his real body, which he fended off by transforming into Kamen Rider Wind. However he was unable to fight on equal footing due to not having recovered completely, but was rescued by Houtaro, Rinne, Supana and Minato before the Dark Kings could eliminate him.
Upon retreating to the Alchemist Academy, Fuga would then reveal the full truth about Nijigon, as well as the Dark Kings to Houtaro before continuing his rest at the academy.
==Other Events==
===Kamen Rider The Winter Movie: Gotchard & Geats Strongest Chemy★Great Gotcha Operation===
A version of Fuga was created in a dream-like state by Rinne due to a spell created by X Wizard and Licht Kugimiya. In it, Rinne dreamt of returning from school and seeing the face of her father. 
Later when Kugimiya forced the entire populace into a deep slumber, Minato suggested using cards of the Cosmic and Fantastic categories but did not know any elite alchemists strong enough to draw out their power. Rinne then willingly submitted herself into Kugimiya's spell just to meet her father and ask him about the two cards, The Sun and Unicon. After confirming his daughter's resolve to fight, he granted her the Alchemisdriver, allowing her to become Kamen Rider Majade.
==Personality==
Fuga is a firm believer of peace and upheld the responsibilities needed to work with Chemy Law. Despite the accusations of betrayal made against him, he prioritized the association's mission to protect the misuse of Chemies over clearing his own name and actively sought to stop Glion from trying to revive the Dark Kings.
==Power and Abilities==
*Alchemy: Fuga is a high-ranking alchemist of great skill. As such, he is able to do these things:
**Body Double Creation: Fuga is able to create doubles of himself using alchemy in order to communicate with other people while his body was resting.
**Temporary Power Bestowal: Fuga is able to imbue someone with powers for a limited amount of time, as demonstrated when he upgraded Houtaro's Alchemist Ring, which allows the young boy to transmute Steamliner into Tenliner.

;Ability Parameters
*Punching Power: 48.1 t
*Kicking Power: 60.3 t
*Maximum Jump Height: 22.8 m
*Maximum Running Speed: 100 m per 5.8 sec.
 is Wind's Bahamut and black hole-based primary form accessed by using the Gigabaham and Kuroana Ride Chemy Cards in the Alchemisdriver.
Wind is shown to be the strongest Rider at the time of his debut, featuring stats that surpass all existing Riders including Gotchard Daybreak. However, his jump height falls short to Fire Gotchard and (Fire) Gotchard Daybreak. Due to his exceptional skills as an Alchemist along with his existing bond with the Chemies prior to becoming a Kamen Rider, Wind is shown to be able to use the powers of Gigabaham and Kuroana proficiently, respectively having the ability to fly at high speeds using golden wind energy and creating black holes from the High Alchemis Jewel to absorb and nullify attacks or pull enemies towards him.
Blackbahamut consists of the following parts:
*: The head.
**: The crown. Inheriting the excellent airflow manipulation ability of the Fantastic Chemy "Gigabaham", it possesses the power to manipulate wind.
**: The tuner. It tunes the state of the transmutation as needed and prioritizes the protection of Wind, including making decisions to release the transmutation process when necessary.
**: The eyes. It has the ability to enhance human vision and emits a brightness that never fades.
**: The mouthguard. The Mithril armor allows for it to be made extremely thin while maintaining strength, and even allows for normal conversation.
*: The body. Kamen Rider Wind was created through multiple transmutation consisting of the transformer, the Fantastic Chemy "Gigabaham", and Cosmic Chemy "Kuroana".
*: The alchemy amplification jewels. The jewels placed around the chest and on various parts of the body form a transmutation formation that serves to harmonize and amplify the power of the two Chemies. This activates various effects by changing the composition of the alchemical formation according to the movements of the limbs.
*: The cloak. It has excellent attitude control capabilities, just like its majestic flapping wings. It also functions as a shield that twists the vector of any attack by creating a kind of gravitational lens effect by increasing the density-grade.
*: The arms. These specialize in knifehand strikes reminiscent of sharp claw strikes that are made even sharper by manipulating airflow, and transmuting a micro black hole that suck in all kinds of things. The black hole requires highly skilled alchemy, including delicate control to keep its effects within a limited range.
*: The legs. These are equipped with floating ability through density-grade manipulation, and enables agile spatial behavior through airflow manipulation. This enables the activation of the special move "Black Bahamut Big Bang Nova", which kicks the target with super gravity when it is captured by a violent air current.
This form has the following finishers:
*Alchemisdriver finisher:
**: 
***Wind first scans the High Alchemist Ring on the Alchemis Tuner twice before pushing in the Semi Altvoke levers. He then flies around in a circular motion, creating a tornado to trap his opponent as he spins around in the air. He then pulls the Semi Altvoke levers, spinning like a drill and kicks his opponent down into the ground.
***Wind scans the High Alchemist Ring on the Alchemis Tuner and pushes the Semi Altvoke levers in. He generates a gold tornado and sends it towards his opponent before opening an energized blackhole to swallow their attacks.
