Dmitri Kosokov

(Old bio, still canon I suppose.)

Covered in scars from wrestling giant bears near the Arctic Circle, the enigmatic Warsman is a physical force that exercises dominance over most opponents.

While in the fighting leagues of Japan, he adapted his style and evolved to Bushido after receiving a powerful sword along with becoming the Japanese Heavyweight Champion.

He fought a rematch against The Calm, one of his greatest rivals, whom subsequently sliced out his eyes. He was given a transplant by a chakra-infused statue and Dmitri has afterwards trained in the hidden art of the Death Style of Yama, the Hindu god of finality, whose eyes watch over the four gates of life, death, pain, and rebirth.

He dreams of one day finding the legendary ursine Krasnyy-Shelm again.

A powerhouse at close range
A powerhouse at close range

Dmitri trains at an almost constant rate, pausing only to either replenish his energy with a significantly humungous meal or to sleep. His fights with the colossal ursines of the unforgiving Russian north have become a staple of local legend. However, he has only ever killed one bear and he wears its skin to wrestling matches in honor of its life.

Dmitri has an inhuman tolerance to cold weather, as evidenced by his usual attire of wrestling shorts and boots even during the harshest Russian winter storms.

His strength is also incomparable by normal human standards. He states that one of his heroes is Paul Anderson, a man who is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as one of the greatest weightlifters as well as one of the strongest men of all time. Some of Dmitri's feats, however, seem to outclass even Paul Anderson's behemoth demonstrations.

Though Dmitri seems like a simple man and his moveset is somewhat predictable, he is not stupid. His mind is a highly tuned machine capable of picking apart foes just as quickly and easily as his hands are. He can adapt to opponents that fancy themselves superior to his intimidating bulk by way of their more agile strategies. However, Dmitri is not slow in terms of reflexes. In fact, he can follow speedsters and teleporting adversaries as if they were standing still right in front of him and knock them down. His extended presence in the underground fighting leagues of Russia provided him with significant experience regarding such antics.

During his extended stay in the fighting leagues of Southeast Asia, Dmitri has become accustomed to moving at blitzing speeds.

Despite being a human being, Dmitri has adapted to the immeasurably difficult pastime of fighting enemies in the extended metahuman range.

The horrific combination of Night of Eternity and the Death Style
The horrific combination of Night of Eternity and the Death Style

Night of Eternity has several unique powers, mostly revolving around transforming.

While in its base shape, Night of Eternity can access an ascended form, in which it starts to glow a sickly green color. The wielder becomes exceptionally more powerful in all physical aspects. The downside is that this form causes a slow drain on the user's bodily energies and eventually turns them brittle and almost statuesque. It is only ever utilized in emergencies.

A more common transformation method is the Twin Wolves mode. Night of Eternity splits into two blades, each glowing a pale bluish white. They can also change into a pistol shape with several dozen unique firing modes. As with the ascended form, the Twin Wolves mode drastically increases its activator's abilities but not to the same extent and without the innate consequences.

The eyes of the Death Style in their Kaleidoscope form
The eyes of the Death Style in their Kaleidoscope form

The Death Style of Yama focuses on two pairs of eyes: one hidden in the ethereal realm while another in the material acts as its channeler and the main form of offense and defense. When all four eyes are activated, it is said that the fighter is like a hound of hell, one of Yama's own war dogs of quadruple sight. But this is still out of Dmitri's reach or understanding.

As of right now, Dmitri can access the Bahurūpadarśaka (or Kaleidoscope) form, which is considered to be one of the more advanced classes of techniques available in the Death Style. Stances in this unique fighting style are not controlled by bodily movements, but by ocular motions and transformations. The pupil can change depending on which stance is necessary, such as illusionary arts or purely offensive ones. The speed at which Dmitri is learning these styles is astounding, considering that there are no masters on Earth from whom he can learn.

Once an opponent is caught in the sight of a seasoned Death Style user, it is almost impossible for them to leave considering their chakra is read as easily discernible colors.

The eyes are sometimes referred to as Sharingan, or "Copy Wheel Eye."

Legendary Technique: Antahīna Inpharnō (Endless Inferno)
Legendary Technique: Antahīna Inpharnō (Endless Inferno)

One of the many signature abilities available to those with the Death Style eyes is that of elemental control, most notably that of fire. The summoning incantation for the most powerful song of fire belongs to that of Endless Inferno, which reads as "A world that is forever consumed by flames: ignite." The heat and range of the immense fireball that follows is similar to those of the mythical dragons that this maneuver is based on.

The heat is enough to melt steel within seconds, but it pales in comparison to another legendary technique forged by those with the eyes of the Death Style. The Yama kī Asīma Ghr̥ṇā, or "Yama's Boundless Hatred," is not considered to be a fire-based ability and is therefore not classified as an elemental specialty of the Death Style. It is instead a sight-based attack, which ignites whatever the user is looking at. The black fires that consume the target are inextinguishable and burn like a thousand blazing suns. The physical strain of maintaining a constant stream of these fearsome flames is astounding and the user risks going blind, often bleeding out of the eye sockets as a primary indication of their limits.

The Final Apocalypse Beast is sometimes ultimately referred as merely a folk tale, an imaginary construct used to frighten those who hear the stories. Long ago, the first master of the Death Style perfected the art to such an extent that he could summon a titanic monster capable of unmatched power just by tapping into his life force energies. This creature of pure energy acted as both armor and weapon for that master, tearing apart his foes without mercy and without restraint.

Dmitri has been able to access parts of this beast, such as the rib cage and upper body. So far, his version of the Final Apocalypse Beast has two forearms connected at the elbows with a hand at each end with five fingers and one thumb. It is easily recognizable by its heavily armored appearance and massive sword charged with untold amounts of lightning chakra, making it one of the most powerful weapons ever conceived by mankind - past, present, or future. At its full height, it is estimated to stand at more than three hundred feet tall.

In order to unlock the Final Apocalypse Beast, Dmitri had to completely master the Kaleidoscope eyes while also demonstrating an understanding of the chakra flow associated with his eyes as practiced with the Yama's Boundless Hatred technique. Due to the similarities and unmistakable connection between the two, both techniques require an enormous amount of concentration combined with the willingness to risk one's life to accomplish.

Because of the danger present, it is considered to be a forbidden summoning.

Bhagavāna kī Dr̥ṣṭi (God's Sight) is the final form of the Death Style, one that accomplishes visual perfection while also accommodating for complete mastery of the arts associated with the Death Style. It is inevitable that Dmitri will learn this, but legends foretell that a great tragedy must befall him first.
