Hildegarde Ernestine

Isamu (山中, "Courage") is the name of the current user of the infamous  known as Nō Nō no Mi, and considered to be one of the most dangerous men in the world, with civilian casualties following shortly wherever he treads. Originally among the children to be chosen for a  program, his latent sociopathic tendencies were at first considered to be boons to his future cause. For many years the boy understood the value of what was being taught to him, and remained the very picture of obedience, until at last he betrayed his former comrades in order to steal the Nō Nō no Mi from a returning patrol at the tender age of twelve.

At this point, Isamu revealed his true colors, using those very talents he'd learned from the agents of the World Governments to murder every man on board the vessel, and due to a mixture of natural excellence and raw ability, he proved capable of eluding the clutches of his former colleagues until he had managed to grasp the nature of his Devil Fruit's power.

Whereupon he became almost impossible to track, as the then 13-year old began a life where he would abuse the fruits power to force couples to 'adopt' him, feeding, caring and sheltering him until his powers grew with him into adulthood. Should he ever be unmasked, his response was to brutally slaughter his own 'parents' and find another family to graft himself on to. In the event that they already had children, he would isolate them and dispose of the child before taking their place in their mind.

Appearance
In addition to being blessed with excellence in the many arts of the ; Isamu was likewise blessed with several attractive features, standing at an impressive 6'4 feet in height, he towers over the majority of people he encounters, something he seems to take an unusual amount of pride in. Isamu's face is comely and highly symmetric, with warm amber eyes, dirty blonde hair. Fair-skinned and currently being at the peak of his physical fitness he is rather well built; with agile and flexible muscles that come as a result from years of physical training in order to defend against the vast excess of assassins that seek to claim the bounty on his head. He's been described by associatees of his to have the face and body of a chiseled statue; Isamu's angelic features are known to strongly bely his brutal and gruesome nature.

Isamu normally projects a warm, compassionate and gentle nature, a combination of his attractive features and his amber eyes; strengthened by his confidence and superficial charm. Frequently lulling others into a false sense of security, making them all the more easy to exploit in the future. Isamu carries himself with utmost grace and any movement he makes are done with great care and precision; his stride practically exuding his great confidence, both in his abilities and in his strength of personality and physical appearance.

In everyday situations Isamu usually wears suits of the finest tailorship, made of excellent textures and materials and most likely worth small fortunes in and of themselves, Isamu claims that they was specifically tailored for him because he found the current fashion for suits to be too simple and too overused. The fact that he went to such great lengths just to get a suit that he could live with suggests a large degree of vanity as well, his choice to wear prized finery in combat is as much a testimony to his desire to appear presentable as it is a mockery of his opposition. Treating the onslaught of his foes as a private business meeting, and to this day, only a handful of people have been able to even stain his suit.

Personality
Superficially, Isamu appears as a kind-hearted, compassionate, polite and warm individual; perpetually wearing a refreshing and highly welcoming smile and always willing to exchange pleasantries with anyone he meets. He's humorous, flirtatious and projects a sympathetic persona to the world around him, and thus invoking little suspicion when he goes about his business. Beneath this pleasant charade though, lies a consumate sociopath with no regard for anything but his own personal freedom, aspirations and ambitions. Isamu has no qualms whatsoever about using his abilities to realize his own wishes and fantasies; even at the expense of someone elses mentality and dignity: Indeed, Isamu has crushed more than his fair share of people into the dirt trough these methods, always making sure that they never, ever, forget him.

Isamu's sociopathy is a direct result of his harsh training and lack of parental guidance, both of his parents having met their respective ends shortly after his birth, making him an orphan until he was accepted for the CP program. Due to his ruthless nature, Isamu excelled at work that would be required of him in the future, had he remained a Cipher Pol agent, but his ambitions lied beyond the reaches of the organization. When his siblings finally caught up with him almost two decades after he left, he murdered them brutally without even a twinge of remorse, remarking that it was an euphoric experience to bring their lives to a gruesome end. Going out of his way to drag out the moment by tormenting them in any way he knew, both physically and emotionally before finding it within himself to end his fun.

Isamu is intimately familiar with the concepts of death and torture and he's interested in finding ever new and inventive ways to inflict it upon his enemies. Its believed that Isamu's extraordinary knowledge of medicine stems from an immense inexplainable desire to kill; indeed, Isamu himself even goes so far as to proclaim that he actively conducts research in order to become increasingly better at the ruthless art of murder. Isamu seems to consider the very act of homicide an elaborate art and often makes a game of killing enemies in inventive and unnessecarily complicated ways simply to relieve his own boredom, all of these bouts of "artistic slaughter" are spontanenous and despite their often great complexity Isamu strictly opposes any formal planning in regards to how he wants to express himself. Isamu fashions himself an artist of death, an instrument designed to make others weep in symphony at his atrocities. Isamu is a harbringer of sorrow who derives a perverse form of pleasure and satisfaction from anguish and grief itself. The man is whimsical in his desire to kill, and will commonly murder others at random, completely lacking in both apparent motive and actual provocation, if asked about his decision to kill someone Isamu is unlikely to respond with anything else than a passing glance, as if the very nature of murder means so little to him that he considers the individual asking the question a fool for inquiring.

Isamu is also noted to possess a great deal of arrogance, believing himself superiour to all but the most powerful of adversaries; this is due to the fact that he even as a child was used with people bowing down and weeping before him, while he used his techniques to the utmost of his ability. Having the power to break, change and dominate people at his disposal since the early teens it was indeed inevitable that he came to view himself as such. His detached and calculated nature, along with his prodigal intelligence and lack of regard for the lives, opinions and mentality of others has molded him into a highly cunning and dark-minded man. Calculating just how many people his actions will kill or crush as unburdened as if he was preparing the ingredients to a cup of hot tea. Despite his feeling of being superiour to all he meets and lack of regard for rules, regulations or any authority but his own - Isamu is not above being polite and even slightly meek, but never subservient, in the company of uncertain elements.

Isamu's ultimate goal has been described as shattering the social order and bonds that have been established over time. His desires curve around the will to instigate civil wars and break what others have used centuries to uphold, for this reason he attembs to turn friends and family against one another and tempt anyone to forsake their vows and taboos, tearing down the order that many so desperately cling to and it can be assumed that Isamu's ideal world would be a dystopia where parents and children killed one another, siblings fought for the their heritage and no law nor regulation were present, an eternally self-destructive world where nothing could ever thrive for more than a few years at best.

Powers & Abilities
Many words have been used to describe Isamu since an unnamed woman gave him life more than thirty-three years ago, but the one most used and most apt would be "Monster". Isamu has never been human in the eyes of most, and his existence is a cautionary tale of what happens if you're ever blessed with too much. Hailed as what is probably among the greatest prodigies of the last century, Isamu's genius is often favorably compared to the likes of who himself was considered extraordinary within his time. He learned most of the techniques shown to him in weeks where it demanded months of others, within moments of doing so he would already have devised several ways to improve upon it utterly. His mind ever expanding, never ceasing to explore new horizons, such tremendous intellect would've been a boon to the world had it not belonged to perhaps the most wicked man on the planet.

Although his Devil Fruit is infamous for its sheer potential and power, its use is a rarity for most opponents are torn apart by his physical prowess, their bodies rent limb from limb by the raw intensity of his onslaught; even simple techniques have extraordinary destructive power when wielded by Isamu. A single unmodified instance of  formed an immense length of raw unadulterated destruction that eradicated a small fleet with a single kick of his legs, ripping through the woodwork and drowning a large number of his pursuers. Whereas his  is so fast that it allowed him to decapatitate an entire troop of marine soldiers within a single instant, with such precision that they all fell limp to the ground at the same time.

Isamu's mastery of his Devil Fruit has only served to heighten his potential exorbitantly, for with its power he can force even the strongest fighters he encounters to share their secrets with him and further refine his growing power. Blending their applications and talents within one all-encompassing fighting style that he can truly call his own.
