[edit] Character Description
Each participant in the Goketsuji tournament receive their own kuroko, a personal assistant. Should Kurokos's master win his position in the clan, he will also advance to a higher ranking as well. His true identity is a mystery. One day he is an errand boy, the next he could be an assassin, and the next day he might be the official Goketsuji Master of ceremonies... Could he be someone who lost in the Goketsuji Tournament? No one knows...
His role is to watch over the fighters in each of the tournaments, and to take care of them so they will be their most fit when the battles begin. He made a fighting appearance in Power Instinct Legends, where he can be selected as a partner. In the games, he can always be seen in the background.
