Iskabayashi

Iskabayashi wasn't always a hunter of paper demons—he was once a scholar of forbidden arts in the floating libraries of Ashenmoor, until the day a sorcerer's failed ritual tore a rift between worlds and unleashed origami monsters that consumed knowledge itself. Bearing the scars from that catastrophe etched across his tiefling skin like a map of his failures, he abandoned his robes and joined the Pirate Knights, an unconventional order of maritime warriors sworn to contain supernatural threats that slip through dimensional cracks. His distinctive crimson and rose-colored locks, which grew in twisted patterns after the magical explosion, became a beacon of hope to coastal settlements plagued by paper-thin horrors that threatened to fold reality itself. With the cunning of a seafarer and the discipline of a knight, Iskabayashi patrols the cursed waters and borderlands where these origami abominations attempt their escapes, wielding both cutlass and conviction to ensure none reach populated lands. Though his methods are unorthodox and his past shadowed by tragedy, his unwavering commitment to protecting the innocent from supernatural corruption has earned him respect among both common folk and his fellow Pirate Knights. Every scar on his body tells of a monster stopped, a town saved, a breach sealed—and he carries each one as a solemn reminder that some hunts never truly end.
