Dais (Ronin Warriors)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dais, the Dark Warlord of Illusion (known in YST as Gen Mashou, Illusion Demon General Rajura), is the oldest of the Four Dark Warlords. His Illusion armor is infused with the virtue Nin (lit. To endure); in this context, it may mean something like "to bear pain without complaint"), in the English version, the term "serenity" is used for brevity. His surekill is Web of Deception (in YST, Touchimou (Throw Spiderweb)). His main opponent is Kento of Hardrock.
When we first see him, he is shown on a rooftop with the other three Warlords after the Ronins defeat one of Talpa's soldiers. They announce themselves and then disappear. Dais didn't see much action until after the Ronins were separated. When Ryo and Cye were looking for Rowen, Dais appeared on the scene at a temple and lured them into the forest. It was then that he utilized his armor's special abilities and pitted Ryo and Cye against one another, making them think the other was Dais. Later, Sage and Kento arrived at the temple where Dais appeared and followed some scratches in nearby trees to the battleground.
There, Kento and Sage found Ryo and Cye badly injured, due to Dais' illusion upon them. When Sage and Kento were ready for battle, Dais appeared again and performed the same illusion trick. Soon after the fight started, Sage saw through the deception, but was unable to convince Kento until it was too late. With his ally wounded, Kento fought against the real Dais and managed to defeat him.
When the Ronins were all together again, they decided to launch an attack on Talpa's castle. Like the other Warlords (except Anubis), Dais was there, waiting for them. He was eventually defeated and absorbed by Talpa so that the emperor could become whole again. But his plan backfired and eventually was sent back to the Nether Realm, defeated by the newly created Armor of Inferno.
When Anubis left the Warlords, they were without a leader. Though it didn't matter because Lady Kayura appeared and was the one Talpa liked most. When Talpa started to make his survival apparent to the Ronins by sending minions, Dais was soon dispatched. He went to capture Kento, seeing as how his illusions can fool him the best. Even as a precaution, Dais brought along the Sand Twins with him.
Eventually, Kento saw through both the Twins' unusual fighting tactics and Dais' illusions. He was able to take down the Twins, but this left him immensely weak. The unharmed Dais was able to take Kento to the Nether Realm just as he was instructed.
When Anubis resurfaced, Dais went to confront him. A battle erupted between the two, which Anubis won: Dais even had his helmet knocked off, exposing his face to both Mia and Yuli. He was then lectured by Anubis, and told that he was only a tool for Talpa; a humiliating defeat.
When two of the Ronins (Ryo and Rowen) attacked Talpa's castle in the Dynasty Nether Realm, Dais engaged in battle against them. In one of those battles, Ryo absorbed the power of both Rowen's armor and the three warlords' armors to form the Armor of Inferno.
After Talpa's final defeat, Dais, Sekhmet, Cale , and Lady Kayura returned to the Nether Realm to rebuild it to a beautiful world.
Dais's armor is a light maroon color. It has six Kammas on the back representing spider legs. He can make these Kammas extend to any length he sees fit. Also Dais can remove his kamas off his back, revealing that these kamas aren't connected to his back, but six kamas connected to a single handle that is attachable to Dais' back. He also has a flail on his right gauntlet. His armor also allows him to spin webs, and create illusions. His under-armor is a very dark pine green with a very light pine green chestplate.
According to The Encyclopedia of YST if Dais/Rajura were to use his powers for good, he would be able to create peaceful illusions.
