History
A massive boar kami bonded with the Samurai Chishiro.[1] Their bond was represented in the blade the samurai carried. After Chishiro and his comrades were attacked by Tatsunari, Chishiro shattered their bond in an attempt to save himself and his kami. Feeling betrayed by Chishiro's decision, Kaima began nurturing a hatred for humans and their fallibility, and eventually found its way to the shrine of the Far Corner neighborhood of Towashi. When a Mukotai scout entered the village searching for kami, Kaima killed the scout, beginning a war with the Mukotai. The village elders hired Chishiro to protect the neighborhood, and after he chased the Mukotai off, he was able to reforge the bond with his kami and his blade along with it.
Neon Dynasty
Kaima is a highly protective kami who lives at the roots of Boseiju. As the manifestation of the Forest Fellowship, he is staunchly suspicious of technology and the Saiba Futurists destroying the peace and balance of nature. Therefore, he volunteers to help the Order of Jukai to protect his forest home. He resembles a giant boar with bear's claws.
Kaima channels his magic into the sword of an orochi samurai named Chishiro, and the duo become a fearsome force. Kaima is even able to extend his magic to Chishiro's squadron. After many defeats, the Futurists try a different tactic: they trap Chishiro, break his sword, and kill his companions. Kaima is so enraged, he is driven from Chishiro and begins a rampage. People begin to live in fear of the fractured kami in the woods until one day, Kaima feels a familiar pang of comradeship: it's a village that has come together to defend itself, led by Chishiro! Seeing his friend's chivalry brings hope to Kaima who returns to his friend to start a new beginning.[2]
