Lifetime Mending Era

Satoru Umezawa (oo-meh-ZAH-wah)[1] is a human ninja and leader of the Hyozan Reckoners. He is part of the Clan Umezawa that is still in Kamigawa.

Description

He has bright tattoos up to the bottom of his ears. His black hair is wound in a tight bun and metal armor is latched strategically across his chest and arms, with windowed panels across his shoulders and stomach that show off his colorful markings. A gas mask hangs from his neck, neon green with painted blue swirls, making it look like the jaws of a monster.[2]

History

Satoru Umezawa is the ruthless leader of the Hyozan Reckoners, the largest and most well-known Reckoner gang on Kamigawa. Under his rule, the Hyozan Reckoners have grown bolder and more daring in their activities, sometimes even going so far as to attack Imperial patrols in their territory. Satoru is infamous for having once exterminated the family of another rival Reckoner who was thinking about challenging him, just to send a message. He claims to be a descendant of the fabled Toshiro Umezawa, a claim that no one has ever been able to verify, but that no one dares question, either.[3]

Neon Dynasty

Before becoming a planeswalker, Kaito Shizuki participated as a member of the Hyozan Reckoners in an attempt to gain information about the Emperor's whereabouts. It was Satoru who gives Kaito the mission to steal information about the technology that Tameshi has been developing. Suspicious of Kaito's loyalty, Satoru sent his henchmen to follow him.[2]

Satoru fought alongside Goro-Goro in defense of Kamigawa during New Phyrexia's Invasion of the Multiverse.

Thunder Junction

When Omenpaths appeared on Kamigawa, Satoru went through one to the plane of Thunder Junction, finding a plane of outlaws like himself. He was eventually recruited into Oko's gang to assist in their planned heist on Maag Taranau. An incident occurred between him and Kaervek that led to enmity between the two of them. Later, they were both imprisoned by the Sterling Company, the lawkeeping entity on the plane.

Kaervek and Satoru were later broken out of prison by Eriette and the newly recruited Annie Flash during a raid on the Sterling Company's headquarters. Kaervek escaped while Satoru stayed back to assist Oko in the main goal of the raid: securing a key to Maag Taranau from the company head's office. Oko offered to help Satoru escape with shapechanging magic, but he declined, not trusting the faerie.[4]
