Choubei Aza

Race: Human (Formerly), Semi-Immortal Human Aza Chobe also known as the Bandit King, is a well-known bandit leader in Iyo that is responsible for multiple crimes committed. Chobe is an extremely barbaric individual who attacks anyone or anything that poses as a threat to him. He prefers to do things of his own accord and would rather resort to violence than talk things through. Chobe is also very sadistic whenever he engages in fights with his enemies, Chobe always stuck to taking on the role of the villain, and holds grudges to those that have bested him. Although he tends to act like a brute, Chobe is a rationale thinker that knows what is the best course of action in a serious situation. Chobe and Toma were born as sons to a retainer under the service of the daimyō of Akō Domain, Asano Takunori. However, after Asano Takunori attacked the court official Kira Yoshinaka at Edo Castle, he was sentenced to commit seppuku. As a result, their father and the rest of the retainers had their status removed and were left as ronin, leaving their family in poverty. They were eventually taken by bandits who planned on selling them but later came to live amongst them after Chobe managed to become their leader.
