[edit] History

[edit] The Last Blade

Shigen is a guardian of a portal named the "Gates of Hell." Before the events of the first game, he is magically sealed in a massive stone for ten years by a friend who perceived him to be a threat. He eventually escaped, but clouded by his rage and anger he could only think of getting revenge on his captor. He set out to invoke his fury.

[edit] The Last Blade 2

By the events of The Last Blade 2, Shigen had regained his senses and remembered the existence of his daughter Kotetsu. To atone for his ten year imprisonment, he traveled to the mountains to spend time with her while training.

During this timeframe, he noticed the evil aura that emanated from the opened "Gates of Hell." As one of its guardians, he set out to close it, leaving his sleeping daughter in the darkness of night. However, he did not notice that his daughter was aware of his departure and she followed him at a distance.

[edit] Trivia

  • Each of the four guardians is based off of the Ssu Ling. Shigen is the avatar of Byakko, the white tiger.
