Kagemaro (KAH-gay-MAH-roh);[1] kage かげ "shadow" + maro まろ male suffix)[2][3] First to Suffer, is an oni on Kamigawa that was once a human.
Description
Kagemaro's human flesh tones are still visible, and his seven pairs of hands appear human, but there is little else evoking his original life form. His body is swollen into a grotesque bulbous sack that trails behind him, and atop what remains of his torso is a dark purple sphere with a skeletal horned mask on it. He wields four bladed weapons in some of his hands - a katana, a tanto, a naginata, and a wakizashi, as well as a flail in a fifth. Darkly glowing rocks hover in the air around him.[4]
History
Kagemaro was the first human to become so evil that his spirit became an oni.[5]
