Yukimaru

**Yukimaru** (雪丸, *****Yukimaru*****?) was a normal young man until his Grandpa was killed during a fight between Pino Brahman and Shintarou Jagasaki, the latter of whom he blames for the tragedy. Using the hatred he felt along with a Frenzied Froglet he received from Nomans Nomen, Yukimaru would become **Carnage! Half-Fractured Counter Catman, Shurayukimaru!** vowing revenge against Jagasaki.

## Appearance

   Yukimaru is a young man with mid length white hair, and skinny frail features. He can be seen wearing clothes that don't seem to fit the best, although this could simply be due to his lack of money.

## Personality

Yukimaru is a very lonely person after the death of his parents and sister and even despite all of the friends he had made and the relationships he had, he simply couldn't move past the immense loneliness he felt.

However, after having a talk with his Grandpa about loneliness, how there's nothing wrong about being alone sometimes and that didn't make him defective, Yukimaru had a brief moment of assurance in his life. Unfortunately, that's quickly torn away from him after his Grandpa's violent death.

His resolve now strengthen in the fact that he was a defective person, Yukimaru's new goal in life is to kill Jagaan.

As a Fractured Human, Yukimaru's personality has become far darker, as demonstrated when he casually murders anyone who might get in his way. Although, despite his calmness regarding death, he still seems to be a bit more rational than the likes of Chiharu Matsuyamachi.

## History

### Past - Childhood

Yukimaru lived with his parents and older sister in their family home. He lived a happy life as any child would, shown to be very proud of and close to his sister. Unfortunately, his family would sadly meet a grim fate after a fatal car crash, leading Yukimaru to be taken in by his Grandpa.

### Past - Young Adult

At some point in time Yukimaru's Grandpa bought them a cat whom Yukimaru had bonded with immediately and named Jako.

During his time in high school, Yukimaru would make lots of friends, even gaining the attention of a girl whom he would begin dating, although speculating that none of them could know how about the loneliness he feels.

On the day of his 18th birthday, Yukimaru's Grandpa had bought them both tickets to D.D.L. which they attend. After a heart warming talk from his Grandpa, Yukimaru watched in horror as he was pushed out of the way as his Grandfather was ran through by a massive anchor, killing him instantly. Seeing a news broadcast that portrayed Jagaan as the man responsible for the destruction and death caused at D.D.L. leads Yukimaru to vow revenge on the Fractured Human Warrior, Jagaan.

Sometime after this, Yukimaru returns to D.D.L. meeting Nomans Nomen who'd turn him into a Half-Fractured Human.

## Powers and Abilities

### **Catman**

Through his Fracturing, Yukimaru gained the power to take on a half-human, half-cat form which grants him the various characteristics and capabilities of a feline, both physically and psychologically. With this change he receives several enhancements. Such as:

**Increased Strength and Agility**: As with all Fractured Humans, Yukimaru receives a massive boost to his physical strength and agility, although it appears his are far greater than others as he was capable of killing Ebiru and his entire team, all of whom were strong Fractured Human Warriors, with minimal effort. He's also been shown being able to scale up and cling to the sides of buildings using his claws as well as leaping from one to another with incredible speed. However, Yukimaru's greatest showcase of his ability was during his fight with Jagasaki where he managed to dodge all of his missiles and then immediately perform a surprise attack on him in mid-air.

   **Cat Features**: Yukimaru possesses the ability to elongate his finger nails into black claws that are more than capable of slicing through flesh and bone with ease, allowing him to completely dismember normal humans in only a few slashes. These are his main weapons, utilizing them in quick succession against Ebiru, stabbing the Fractured Human through his skull before decapitating him. However, while strong enough to dig into solid concrete with ease, it would seem that Yukimaru's claws do have limits as they had no effect on Mikazuchi's hardened carbon armor. Although Yukimaru has never been shown using them in battle, his teeth can also become significantly larger and sharper then a regular human.

    **Cat Senses / Super Sensor**: Alongside his claws and fangs, Yukimaru also possesses the most well-known abilities of a feline, that being their incredible sense and preternatural reflexes; becoming far more sensitive to the world then a normal human. In fact, he doesn't actually need to see attacks coming in order to dodge them, instead when faced with any sort of abnormalities perceived through his five senses, Yukimaru's "*Spinal Reflex*" will activate; causing him to instinctively dodge whatever's coming his way in a similar manner to when you pull your hand away when its touches boiling hot water, only Yukimaru can do this before the water's even touched him. While incredibly swift, it doesn't appear to be invincible, as even a regular surprise attack from Jagaaan was capable of catching the human-cat hybrid off-guard.

### **Half-Fractured Human**

This form gives Yukimaru his cat like features, further improving his physical capabilities as well as enhancing all of his five sense. Unlike most Fractured Humans, Yukimaru more or less maintains a very human appearance with only his sharp claws, large fangs, and intense eyes giving away his true nature.
