Jōichirō Yukihira

* Bio

***His Exalted and Most Supreme Majesty, Emperor*** **Jōichirō Yukihira** (幸 (ゆき) 平 (ひら)  城 (じょう) 一 (いち) 郎 (ろう) , *Yukihira Jōichirō*?), né **Hokke** (藤原北, *Hokke*?), was the previous Dragon Lord-Emperor and God-King of the Yamato Empire, ruling the Empire alongside his beloved wife Akari Yukihira (*née* **Kinokuni**). As part of the Imperial Yukihira Dynasty, he is the late father of Senzaemon Yukihira, making him Megumi Yukihira (*née* **Vanrouge**)'s father-in-law---he is the grandfather of Hana Yukihira and Sōma Draconia (*né* **Yukihira**), older brother of Hana---he is also the adoptive grandfather of Yuuka Hirasaka, Yuuken Enma, Yuya Yukihira, Yuu Yukihira and Suzume Ōtsutsuki.

Prior to Suzume inheriting the Authority of Order from him, Jōichirō was the signet holder of the Authority of Order and was part of the 91st Generation of Genesis Heroes, having had the signet power passed down to him by his childhood teacher Ai Enma, who was also part of the 91st Generation of Genesis Heroes.

## Trivia

* Jōichirō is directly stated (in-universe) to be one of the divine rulers of the world of Twisted Wonderland, his divine ideals and his powers remain a mystery.
	+ He has on more than one occasion called himself the "God of Eternity" and the attitudes of his people towards change being relatively negative seems to support his claim of that. Yuuken, Yuya, Yuuka, Yuu, and Suzume have all directly called him the "unchanging god".
		- Given that the mantle of Raiden Shogun has been constantally occupied by deities that wield the power of electromagnatism as one of their major abilities, Jōichirō cannot be a god of electro, as all the deities that are of electro are subserviant to the individual that is the current Raiden Shogun.
		- Similarily, the mantles of the **Greater** and **Lesser** are occupied at the moment, the Lords being the rulers over Dendrite (Nature), disqualifying him from that.
		- Due to his icy demeanor and claims of eternity, it is far more likely that he is an ice incarnation.
		- While the God of Fire and War has not been named, they have been noted to be wandering the world in a human form which is something that Jōichirō wouldn't do.
		- The God of Wind is directly stated to have fallen into a deep slumber within the walls of the Ramshackle Dorm, before being transferred by Dire Crowley to a cryosleep chamber located within the walls of Royal Sword after her body (controlled by her alter-ego) injured several students in order to protect the real God of Wind that slumbered within the body.
		- The God of Geo has been slumbering within the body of a RSA student's missing younger sister Anastasia Artemiyevovna Pinker for several years, after Anastasia got herself encased in ice while hiking with her family. After the God of Geo passed, Anastasia inherited his power and presumably ascended as the new God of Geo after passing the required divine trials, however this is unconfirmed at the moment. Given that Anastasia has been constantly addressed (in-universe) as the God of Geo right after having been found by the reawakened God of Wind and her supporters, she is most likely the new God of Geo.
		- Similarily, the God of Spacetime has been subtly raising up their three successors for the divine trials, something which Jōichirō held himself back from doing.
		- The mantle of the Sea Empress is the only mantle that doesn't have a claiment but there are seven possible candidates for it:
