Hiromi Higuruma

## Introduction

Hiromi is a defense attorney who often took on impossibly difficult cases in order to protect the wrongfully accused. Having since given up on the justice system completely, Hiromi currently participates in the Culling Game as one of the top players.

Hiromi is a very relaxed, hyperintelligent, and modest man who always appears very detached and aloof from his environment. He can come off as apathetic due to the weary expression that's always on his face but Hiromi is actually very passionate about justice. Hiromi is constantly working on his craft and his associates think he's a masochist for taking on tough cases where most people would consider his defendants sure to be found guilty.

### Character Details

Hiromi was always someone considered a genius by those around him. He was a brilliant lawyer that regularly overcame the toughest academic and legal challenges. However, his natural talent as a sorcerer is what stands out most about Hiromi. He analyzed the innate technique that came by default with his Domain Expansion and learned the fundamentals of barrier techniques from that. By essentially reverse engineering barrier techniques, Hiromi attainted an instinctive grasp on how to manipulate cursed energy.

**Notable Attacks and Techniques:**

* **Domain Expansion: Deadly Sentencing**

Deadly Sentencing takes the form of a courtroom with two opposing stands; one for the prosecutor and one for the defendant. The stands are surrounded by numerous guillotines.
This domain doesn't work like most modern ones. It does not have a sure-kill factor, and no acts of violence are permitted in it. It only requires those inside to conform to its rules.

* **Judgeman:**

The shikigami standing behind Hiromi, Judgeman, knows everything about those in the court. It then presents evidence to the court. The evidence doesn't explicitly prove one guilty. The defendant is given three choices: confession, denial or silence. Once the defendant has spoken, the prosecutor uses the evidence to make a statement. Based on the evidence and statements, Judgeman then gives a verdict. If the defendant is found guilty, they are then unable to use their cursed technique. However, if they do not have a cursed technique, the punishment changes to being unable to use cursed energy. If the defendant does not confess and prove himself guilty, he can be allowed up to two retrials.
However, in certain cases Judgeman can give the defendant the death penalty. Once that happens, Higuruma gains the Executioner's Sword by transforming his gavel. Without exception, everyone touched by the Executioner's Sword will die.

**Executioners Sword:**
After Confiscation removes the cursed technique of a user, Hiromi receives Executioners Sword, that allows him to kill anyone that his sword cuts.
