Fudo

Fudo (フドウ) is one of the five designated protectors of the Nanto General (known as the Nanto Goshasei) and rules over the "mountain" element. In the past, Fudo was a rebellious and vicious entity who thought that people were insignificant and pathetic. His posture was so foreboding that the locals called him the "Evil Devil Fudo" and even Raoh feared him during his training days. However, he met a calm Yuria when she was a child and was reformed by her caring Mother Star. Her power also awakened his eyes to his true duties as a loyal Nanto Goshasei.

Since his encounter with Yuria, Fudo reformed into a lovable and kind giant. He has saved countless of people with his large frame and even adopted several orphans. When Yuria remains the last Nanto star, he approaches Kenshiro and travels with him for a time. After Kenshiro helps him save his adopted children, Fudo reveals Yuria's whereabouts to the wanderer. Fudo stays by his children's side until Raoh, who is intent on proving that he fears nothing, challenges him. Reviving his "devil" attire once more, his appearance and ferocity frightens his opponent, making Fudo the "winner" of the fight. However, the arrows shot by his Raoh's minions fatally wound him. Dying beside his children and Kenshiro, he passes away from his wounds.

Fighting Style
Fudo usually tries to avoid fighting, but he still possesses the same strength and endurance from his younger days. He doesn't seem to have a particular martial art, as he mainly uses his raw power and massive build to stop his opponent's blows.

In the game, he uses body slams and/or smashes his fists to attack.
