I. Character Background

Kuchochiko was originally a man who lived during Japan's ancient age of warring kingdoms. A powerful sorcerer and curse-wielder, he served the kingdom of Kunakoku, acting as both a supernatural enforcer and a practitioner of forbidden arts.

His mastery of curses made him a particularly valuable servant to Kunakoku's royal family. He could bring misfortune upon enemies, weaken opposing armies, and inflict supernatural afflictions upon those who dared threaten his kingdom.

However, Kuchochiko was never particularly interested in remaining beneath someone else's authority.

Eventually, his ambition overtook his loyalty.

In a sudden act of treachery, he assassinated Kunakoku's king, seized the throne for himself, and declared himself the new ruler. His ambitions didn't end there. He subsequently attempted to conquer Yamataikoku, seeking to establish himself as the supreme ruler of the surrounding kingdoms.

His rebellion ultimately failed.

His name became associated with treachery, ambition, and the resentment of a kingdom betrayed by its own protector.

Yet the Heroic Spirit recorded in the Throne of Heroes is not quite the same individual who once lived.

For reasons that remain completely unknown, Kuchochiko manifests as a woman.

There is no historical explanation, no recorded curse, and no known divine intervention responsible for the transformation. Even Kuchochiko herself seems rather amused by the mystery.

She doesn't particularly care about the discrepancy.

"Man, woman... does it matter? The king is dead, the kingdom is mine, and anyone who disagrees can join him."

Whether her current appearance is the result of a distortion in her Saint Graph, a peculiar aspect of her legend, or something else entirely remains unknown.

II. Appearance

Kuchochiko is an imposing wolf-headed woman with an unmistakably supernatural appearance.

Her body is covered in thick grey fur, with darker red markings around her head and face. Her eyes possess a predatory intensity, and her large wolf ears constantly react to sounds around her.

Her physique is powerful and athletic, possessing considerable physical strength beneath her elaborate armor.

Armor and Clothing:

• Armor: Elaborate golden Japanese-inspired armor covering her shoulders, chest, arms, waist, and legs. Its ornate spiral patterns are believed to represent the numerous curses she has mastered.

• Fur Mantle: A thick, dark-blue fur mantle surrounds her shoulders and upper body.

• Cape: A long, dark crimson cape hangs behind her, providing a striking contrast against her golden armor.

• Tail: A large, bushy wolf tail with grey, black, and crimson markings.

• Weapon: An enormous blackened blade that appears almost unnaturally dark. Its surface is covered in supernatural markings and carries the accumulated resentment of those she has cursed.

Mana Consumption and Feeding Mechanism

One of the most unusual aspects of Kuchochiko's Saint Graph is her ability to sustain herself through two different sources of energy.

1. Master-Based Mana Consumption

Like most Servants, Kuchochiko requires magical energy from her Master to maintain her physical manifestation.

Her armor, supernatural abilities, curses, and Noble Phantasm all require considerable amounts of mana.

However, Kuchochiko has a relatively unusual mana consumption pattern.

She doesn't necessarily require a constant, enormous supply of mana. Instead, she can regulate her expenditure depending on her activities.

When resting, she can enter a relatively dormant state, reducing her consumption considerably.

When fighting, however, her requirements increase dramatically.

2. Emotional Feeding — Grudge Consumption

Unique Avenger Trait

Kuchochiko possesses an unusual ability to absorb negative emotions from the people around her.

Anger, resentment, hostility, hatred, jealousy, and animosity are all suitable sources of nourishment.

She can absorb these emotions and convert them into magical energy, allowing her to supplement the mana supplied by her Master.

This ability is particularly effective in places where conflict has accumulated over time.

Examples include:

• Battlefields where countless soldiers have fought and died.

• Cities experiencing widespread political unrest.

• Places where people have suffered prolonged oppression.

• Environments filled with interpersonal hostility.

• Areas where powerful grudges or curses remain.

How it works:

Kuchochiko doesn't need someone to actively direct their anger toward her.

She can feed on the surrounding emotional atmosphere, gathering resentment and hostility from multiple individuals.

The more intense the negative emotions, the more energy she can potentially extract.

However, there are limitations.

• She cannot create unlimited magical energy from nothing.

• Peaceful environments provide considerably less nourishment.

• Positive emotions don't provide sustenance.

• She cannot completely replace her Master's mana supply through this ability under ordinary circumstances.

• Excessive absorption can make her more aggressive and amplify her existing Avenger tendencies.

Interestingly, Kuchochiko considers this ability one of the most convenient aspects of her existence.

"A battlefield is practically a banquet hall. All that hatred, all that resentment... and people wonder why I enjoy my work."

Grants increased offensive power when facing multiple opponents or fighting in hostile territory.

However, this skill can become unstable when Kuchochiko encounters someone associated with Yamataikoku.

VII. Noble Phantasm

NOBLE PHANTASM · ANTI-ARMY

Kokujin no Jūen

The Grudge That Devours a Kingdom

Rank A

Anti-Army

Kuchochiko's Noble Phantasm manifests the accumulated curses and resentment associated with her rebellion against Kunakoku.

When activated, her golden armor becomes surrounded by dark supernatural markings, while her enormous black blade begins absorbing the negative emotions of everyone within its effective range.

The battlefield gradually becomes saturated with an oppressive magical atmosphere.

Those affected experience an amplification of their existing negative emotions.

Fear becomes paranoia. Anger becomes uncontrollable hostility. Resentment becomes an overwhelming desire for revenge.

Kuchochiko then brings her blade down, releasing a tremendous wave of concentrated curses.

The resulting attack damages enemies physically and spiritually, with its potency increasing according to the amount of negative emotion absorbed beforehand.

Special Properties:

• Increased effectiveness against large groups.

• Can bypass certain forms of conventional magical defense.

• Becomes considerably stronger in environments saturated with resentment.

• Can weaken enemy formations through emotional interference.

• Particularly effective against armies and organized groups.

Its greatest weakness is that its full potential is difficult to achieve in peaceful environments.

Kuchochiko describes it as the ultimate expression of her philosophy:

"A kingdom isn't conquered by its walls. It's conquered by the hatred festering behind them."
