[edit] History

[edit] Samurai Shodown 2

Nicotine is the chief priest of Koka-in (a pun on "Cocaine"), a temple deep in the mountains of Hida, and the master swordsman who taught Haohmaru and Genjuro. A fierce warrior, he once sent many demons out of this world, but became a life-worshiping priest after a defeat to a certain evil one. Hearing his young disciple has been attacked by demons, he takes up his sword and travels to save him.

After the demon's defeat, he returns to his life in the temple. Here, he is joined by Haohmaru and takes care of the young child Mikoto, given to him by Shiki.

[edit] Trivia

  • Nicotine's name and where he's from are all drug references.
  • The character Dakuan from Ninja Scroll is very similar to Nicotine
  • Nicotine has a very strange special move that actually reverses the opponent's controls. While it may do a small amount of damage, this move is largely useless against the CPU.
  • The "monster" summoned during his POW move is the deity, Atavakah.
