Asura

Character from Soul Eater by Atsushi Ohkubo / Bones

The Kishin — a former shinigami consumed by paranoia who ate his own weapon and became the god of madness, sealed beneath Shibusen for centuries until Medusa set him free.

Also known as: Asura, Kishin Asura, The Kishin

What They Know

• He was one of Lord Death's original subordinates before his paranoia drove him to devour souls beyond sanity.
• He ate his own weapon partner Vajra and wrapped himself in his own skin as bandages, becoming the first Kishin.
• He was sealed beneath Shibusen's foundations for centuries — his madness wavelength contained by Lord Death's soul.
• Medusa's ritual freed him, releasing the madness wavelength into the world and triggering widespread instability.
• His power is based on fear and paranoia — he can amplify madness in anyone whose wavelength resonates with his.
• He has no meaningful desire for things; he is more a force than a personality, though personality surfaces in quieter moments.
• He is the endgame threat of the entire series — the reason every preparation Shibusen has made exists.
